Okay, now 11 hours of THIS cast I would love to watch! What a difference. The main characters were actually attractive and had chemistry. And there WAS an Aloysius, only they didn't bonk you over the head with him, it was perfectly done. So glad I gave it another try, as I'm unlikely to get the book read anytime soon.

Let the Right One In (2008)

Well, I signed up for Netflix for a month to rent some movies that have that Blockbuster doesn't. Their "watch now online" movies are pretty cool, I got to see the sequels to Sleepaway Camp and see I didn't like them as much as the original. So, I think everyone should see this one. I knew the situation was ridiculous, but not this ridiculous.

Sat, 22 Sep 2007 15:19:21 PDT

Westerns haven't really been my thing, the only ones I remember enjoying were the bubble-gum 80s variety like Bad Girls and Young Guns (watch the peyote trip - Didja see the size of that chicken?). But this has Christian Bale and Russell Crowe, (and it looked like Jude Law was in the trailer, but that was Ben Foster). Variety has a good description and review here. This is a remake, and I plan to rent the original before this comes out.

UPDATE: Well, certainly nobody looked like Jude Law in the actual movie! The original was good, and this remake was better, and has differences, so don't worry about the original ruining the new movie for you beforehand.

I certainly don't agree that this was the best of the three. The fight scenes were amazing, as usual. Due to my super-sized Diet Coke I had to hit the bathroom and I think I may have missed something between Jason & Nicky. At least I hope there was more between them than I saw. I was really tired when I saw this, but I think the story was a little thin.
