Anyone watched Will Ferrell's show - Everything Must Go?

He plays a straight loser but surprisingly manages to do it brilliantly. Short movie where not a lot happens but worth seeing again.
A very enjoyable film, including Ferrell's character. Though I couldn't work out what his drinking problem was, it seemed normal enough.

What?? A beer first in the morning?
I wanna have my kicks before the whole shithouse goes up in flames.

Watched the Devils Double last night.  Thought it was very good.  About Udey Hussein and the man who is forced to be his double.  Dominic Cooper plays both parts very well.  Some mental bits in the film, and Udey Hussein is a complete nut job.  Anybody else seen this yet?

He was between jobs, reflecting about his sudden dire change of circumstances on the lazy boy, not quite sure where to go next and was supping on a 6 pack over the day.
Not quite the reckless drinking to match his misfortune, not anywhere near what you'd call rock bottom.


The Iceman

Watched 13 Assassins last night.
Fantastic Show. 10/10

This is coming either tomorrow or over the weekend. Watched the trailer last night and it looks excellent.

Watched it myself this week thought it started off very well but the fight at the end must have been near an hour long thought it was a bit much.

Also saw Affliction with Nick Nolte. Slow going but Nolte is very good. Don't think it would be everyone's cup of tea, prob need to be in the right mood, but I was on a plane so nothing better to do and enjoyed it

Subtitled.
One thing I didn't understand though was the bandit they found in the woods, how was he still alive at the end after getting the short sword through the neck? Didn't look like he even had any wounds...

Obviously he was magic. I think there was an answer when he came into the movie, he was some sort of something or other.

The fight scene at the end is epic. One of the best war/battle/fight scenes in movie history if a bit tongue in cheek.

The Iceman

Obviously he was.

Fantastic fight scene, although tongue in cheek it wasn't your high flying fake cable wires having them balance on leaves and pulling moves out of Mortal Kombat....

13 men to kill 200 would take a good hour with swords

I haven watched it yet. I had the dubbed version and I lasted about 30 seconds, it sounded as if the corny voices used were from the mormon international school of US english.

Denn Forever

On BBC2 at the moment and catch it again on the iplayer.  An awe inspiring true story.
