While browsing around Zavvi (formerly Virgin) in Liffey Valley today I found the following gems: Soccer Dog: European Cup and Irish Jam. How on earth do films like that get financed? What’s even more suprising is the fact that Soccer Dog: European Cup is a sequel to the original European Cup! 😯 As for Eddie Griffin in ‘Irish Jam’, I suspect the IMDB user comment sums it up: ‘terrible film’.
On a more positive note, I picked up Family Guy: Blue Harvest, Superbad and The Lives of Others. Hopefully watch one or two of them before the weekend is out.
What a fantastic film. Just finished watching it now. James McEvoy and Kiera Knightly are as good as you’ve come to expect in any film which bears their names. The famous steadicam shot is an astonishing achievement considering the length and complexity involved. Having not seen Joe Wright’s version of Pride & Prejudice, I’m going to seek it out. I’d be suprised if this doesn’t win Oscars.
