Damages - Season 1 [2007]

starring: Glenn Close, Rose Byrne, Ted Danson, Zeljko Ivanek, Tate Donovan
directed by: Mario Van Peebles

April 14, 2008
The series starts off great. It kicks off with the protagonist wandering the streets covered in blood, then flashes back to events 6 months earlier and gradually comes up to date to fill us in on the story - an intriguing framing premise that only starts to wear out its welcome by episode 4 or so. The characters are fascinating - especially the very human monsters brilliantly played by Glenn Close and Ted Danson. So what went wrong? As we near the end of the season, it's revealed that the most improbable characters are embroiled in an ever-widening conspiracy. Plot hoops and cliffhangers take over from the earlier subtle characterization. There's the sense that, like with Prison Break, the writers are starting to steer the story with a view ... Read More:

Casanova

starring: Peter O'Toole, David Tennant, Rose Byrne, Rupert Penry-Jones, Laura Fraser

May 23, 2005
This is a hugely enjoyable, stylish, witty retelling of the Casanova story. As it was written by Russel T Davies it goes without saying that the script is fabulous and the story cracks along at a wonderful pace. David Tennant is utterly faultless as a funny, likeable and very human Casanova, quite unlike the roistering, wham-bam beefcake image of Casanova we've been used to. A total triumph. You must buy this.

28 Days Later/28 Weeks Later [2003]

starring: Cillian Murphy, Catherine McCormack, Rose Byrne, Jeremy Renner, Harold Perrineau
directed by: Danny Boyle, Juan Carlos Fresnadillo

September 10, 2007
28 Days Later was a great film and was a cute reminder of how basic we could be; Creme De Menthe and candles, Budgens booze counter, say no more. As for the film, great! To film London deserted was a feat in itself. The storyline was conventional (zombies/virus), but the way it was portrayed was exceptional. As for 28 Weeks Later, well, it was definitely a follow-on, but with it's own twist. The ending being the destruction of Europe by those saved at all costs was good. Will we see a third film..? Watch this space.

Sunshine [Blu-ray] [2007]

starring: Rose Byrne, Cliff Curtis, Chris Evans, Troy Garity, Michelle Yeoh
directed by: Danny Boyle

October 29, 2007
It is the year 2057. The sun is about to peter-out in about 50years. A mission was sent seven years ago to reignite the sun; the ship disappeared. Now a new mission and last chance.

We are now introduced to the standard crew mix over the obligatory eating scene. The mission is reviled. We learn of each person's personality and quirks. And it takes a long slow time. (For people with Blu-ray you can fast-forward with sound on, it does not sound Mickey Mouse.) Soon we find the fate of the previous ship. We also suffer from an accident caused by miscalculation. Will these mishaps jeopardize the mission and the human fate?

The film is a tad slow probably by design and there are lots of flashy visuals. Many look like they ware borrowed from "Solaris" (2002.) ... Read More:

Sunshine [2007]

starring: Rose Byrne, Cliff Curtis, Chris Evans, Troy Garity, Michelle Yeoh
directed by: Danny Boyle

August 27, 2007
It's a pity but this film doe's not live up to expectations.It is nothing but a montage of scenes tacked together without rhyme or reason,mixed with stupid camera tricks.Some of the directors of today seem to use this approach when they lack talent or fresh ideas.All in all, one of the top three worst movies of all time.I gave it one star only because the synopsis had potential(until they actually made the film).

Marie Antoinette [2006]

starring: Kirsten Dunst, Jason Schwartzmann, Judy Davis, Rip Torn, Rose Byrne

February 26, 2007
I was looking forward to watching this film as I truly enjoy period dramas. I was very disappointed in this movie. The music was terrible, there were no decent dialogues for the characters, the direction was not impressive at all. I was waiting for a plot of the story but nothing, no real development of the story an at the end I could not wait for this movie to be over. I am glad that I did not spend money to rent this movie.
Do not watch this movie!I wish I could get back my 2 hours time spent on this one!

I Capture The Castle [2003]

starring: Romola Garai, Rose Byrne, Bill Nighy, Marc Blucas, Sinéad Cusack
directed by: Tim Fywell

January 26, 2004
This film faithfully follows the story of Dodie Smith's beautiful and sometimes painful novel, but cannot capture its magic or the lyrical narrative which is so important (and what is really successful) about the novel. Read the book first, then enjoy this film for the pictures!

Wicker Park [2004]

starring: Josh Hartnett, Rose Byrne, Matthew Lillard, Diane Kruger
directed by: Paul McGuigan

February 07, 2005
This film is brilliant - i loved every second and have watched it at least once a month for the last year.....wow that sounds sad but it's just so good! Most love stories and romantic films leave me bored and irritated but this one is different - it's complex and ultimately hopeful. Plus of course there is the beauty of Josh......and the sound track is great too.
