Hostel 2 - Dir: Eli Roth


This backpacking Quentin Tarantino produced gore fest is back and has more than a few twists along the way. First up, it is a group of girls that get lured to the infamous hostel for some shaken, stirred and slashed frolics. Secondly we get to find out what happened to the protagonist from the first movie. Thirdly, we get to see the thrills and spills from the viewpoint of two of the people that bid to be a killer. As you would expect it is really gruesome, but perhaps not as much volume as the previous one, and some gratuitous nudity. The ending seemed slightly rushed but you'll know if this is your cup of tea already. This is a JM SUCK IT AND SEE.

Live Earth Concert


Immediately so much more better than last weeks' Concert for Diana. The bands were much better and more special, the audience was rocking out more, and a nice balance of music with message. Highlights were the Foo Fighters, Metallica, Beastie Boys, Pussycat Dolls and of course Spinal Tap. The lowlight was the incredibly poor BBC direction, cutting off several acts before they finished their sets to show normally rubbish acts from the other Live Earth concerts. Very poor. More good than bad though. This is a JM RECOMMENDS.

An Inconvenient Truth


One of those films that you don't really want to watch, but feel like you have to to tick the box. I was wrong. This is a must watch. You think it is going to be boring and complicated, but AL Gore lays in down in simple, fascinating but shocking facts. The Earth is f**cked unless we do something quickly. This is a JM RECOMMENDS.
