Also out this week: House of Tolerance, the new one from wanton controversialist and professional smug bastard Bertrand Bonello. Deeply offensive on almost every level, the film is nonetheless an engaging way to spend 122 minutes — if only because it answers the age old question: what would a Lars von Trier remake of Showgirls look like?
| Methodically watching and ranking every Hugh Grant movie in order of Grantiness in a contrived effort to convey my love for the man. |

Exactly as expected: The Soloist
Monday September 21st 2009
What has happened to Joe Wright? Atonement was obviously incredible. The Soloist, which incredibly has twice the budget, is obviously not.
It’s not really boring, it’s just never engaging either. For 117 minutes it hovers uncomfortably between good and bad, interesting and mundane, until it’s over and then you forget that it ever happened.
The most interesting thing about it is Robert Downey Jr’s stupid hat.
Excellent News!

I know this probably won’t happen in a double feature over here, but we can dream.
Those dates once again:
2nd October 2009 – Toy Story in 3D
22nd January 2010 – Toy Story 2 in 3D
23rd July 2010 – Toy Story 3 in 3D
If this doesn’t tell you everything you need to know about New Moon then I don’t know what does
