Our Idiot Brother was a letdown. The gags fell pretty flat, and there were no great lines for the audience. The beginning starts with Ned, in all his naivete, selling pot to a cop. A uniformed cop. The idea is a lot better than its execution on film, which comes off as dirty and mean.

The Brit filmakers are really getting into the swords & sandals game lately, it started for me with The Eagle, then a few nights ago caught Centurion which in many respects was far better than eagle, waaay more action & brutal realism in the battle scenes, plenty of great locations. The only down side was the length, it go's on & on & on.

But the best of the lot was easily Ironclad, its the best mix of story, production values & length of the eagle & the ultra-realistic battle scenes of Centurion. You really get it all in this one, castle siege warfare, open field battles, of course awesome locales... but the kicker is the battle realism... i mean, THIS is what it must have looked like, the butchery is just incredible. One particular scene where the hero tells his men to clear him a path on the ramparts of a castle wall to get at some Norman siegers who'd made it over the wall was pure. awesomeness. You really see what a power stroke from a broadsword would do to a man.

Anyone seen Red State yet? Just got done watching it myself and I must say I thought it was very well done. I enjoyed it alot. For those that don't know it is the newest movie from writer/ director Kevin Smith and it is his first attempt at the horror genre. Of course there's some subtle humor written in being a Kevin Smith movie and all. The acting was quite good as well. It stars Michael Parks, John Goodman (no, not dead) and Melissa Leo. It's kind of Kevin Smith's fictional take on a horror movie based off of the outrageousness of Fred Phelps and the Westboro Baptist Church. It seemed almost like the type of movie Quentin Tarantino would direct, and not something I would expect from Smith. Anyways, I would suggest all and any fans of the genre to give it a watch and I think you'll be pleasantly suprised.

Just finished it. It was really good. (And nothing like anything KS has done before) Goodman was excellent.

On a more disappointing note, word is that Red State was going to be the second to the last movie Smith directs. Apparently he's gonna direct one more movie and then retire from the directing stage of the industry. Such a shame from one of my favorite and in my opinion underrated writer/director.
