yeah four lions is crazy funny.
Really love british comedies as of late. In bruges, attack of the block and four lions have been refreshing. I'm sick of being stuck with judd apatow type stuff for the past decade and we are still green lighting kevin smith projects its terrible |

wish i could say it was "amazing" but it's not, really. it reaaaaaaaalllllyyyyyy drags - the build-up is too slow for my liking. didn't like the stereotypical usage of using someone with a British accent to make the villain sound more intelligent and villainous. to be fair, Andrew Garfield is a much better actor than Maguire and lends extra weight to his role. otherwise, i don't see how this betters the Raimi versions in any way. it only gets a bit "interesting" in the last quarter - but the Lizard looks horrible and looks nothing like the comics version. some points here for being "faithful" to the comic in the Gwen/Capt. Stacey/Spidey interaction but that's about it, really sorry, but i can't give this more than a 4/10 ok, starts off promisingly enough - fairytale elements, Scottish mythology. but quickly descends into the kind of tired over-sentimentality that led Disney to decline with "Pocahontas". The rendering is very good, that's about the best i can say about this. and the voice-acting all sounds like Americans putting on a Scottish brogue. Bleh! 3/10 |
