AudioDescription=Today, Doug and I discuss Scarlett Johansson playing a 14 year old in a new Napolean film, Remo WIlliams coming back to the big screen, we go off on a tangent about Matt Damon and Ben Affleck, Sean Connery in a cameo role in the new James Bond film, Ice Man Cheating on Rogue in X-Men 3 (we are such geeks), Charlotte's Web, Jessica Simpson being cast in Baywatch The Movie, and think about just how bad The Benchwarmers is going to be. All this and a few things more.
AudioExplicit=yes
AudioDuration=00:39:54
Title=The Island
Score=3
Summary=Great plot idea poorly executed in this mindless action movie. There are so many groaning and problematic scenes I really found it hard to enjoy. Coupled with a very poor DVD offering with hidden content that you may well miss, or not as the case may be.
Title=Match Point
Score=9
Summary=Not liking Woody Allen I was surprised that I liked this movie, and just how good it is. It's very real with some excellently scripted moments, and the turning point of this movie is a huge surprise, nothing that you'd expect from Allen. Johansson is very strong as is the rest of the British supporting cast, although Rhys-Meyers does disappoint somewhat. Excellent movie though.
