  Drive 1997

  ★★★★ Watched 20 Mar 2025

  The old 'odd couple' trope. This one is loads of fun, great action sequences, excellent choreography and just enough humour to be funny but not be annoying. I'm really glad that picked this one up and watched it without knowing anything about it.

  Recommended.

  Those guys get the wrong idea. I'm not old-fashioned. They can touch my belly button. But that's it.

  Come Undone 2000

  ★★★½ Rewatched 30 Aug 2021

  I don't remember this one being so sad. The story of boy meets boy, and one of those boys gets a bout of heavy depression. Told in a flash back to the summer before from Mathieu's hospital bed, remembering how he met Cedric, began a whirlwind relationship and then left his family to go and live with the boy.

  We never find out what happened in the year he lived with Cedric, or what made him end up in a hospital, which can be quite frustrating, but otherwise an enjoyable, slow french drama about 2 boys in love.

  Kevin Smith Project session 10

  Joseph Keenan: People just do the strangest things when they believe they're entitled. But they do even stranger things when they just plain believe.

  After the dreadful Cop Out comes Red State, the film you didn't think Kevin Smith had in him, everything about this film is right, John Goodman is insanely good, Michael Parks is even better!

  It's not an easy film to watch, it's very intense, I felt very uncomfortable during the sermon…
