Really great film, I always think Jim Carrey is best when playing a straight role or at least one where he isn't pulling faces.
Matthew Rhys and Andrew Scott star in this easy going adaptation of a Daphne du Maurier yarn.
It is kind of Agatha Christie meets The Prince and the Pauper meets Strangers on a Train - and completely crap, but quite watchable if you like a postwar period TV drama.
5/10
Still one of the best sci-fi horrors ever made. 30-odd years after it was made it still pushes all the buttons.
There is no 'H' in Aych, you know that don't you? ~ Wife

Bit of trading feedback here.
Ryan Reynolds and Marc Ruffolo. Quite meh, I said to the wife that i'd seen that film a few times before and she said yeah, with the same actors too.
Time travel, cloaking devices and lasers but never really felt anyone was in danger and nothing new bought to the table.
A better film than I could make though.
Meh points out of wowzers
Dated but entertaining but really achingly of its time.
Glad I watched. Won't do so ever again. I think the last time I watched it was 50 years ago ...
The 1984 David Lynch one is just a better piece of movie entertainment with sharper dialogue and better set design.
But that aside, what a brilliant film. The whole look and feel, the story, the cast, the atmosphere. A real groundbreaking movie, has to be one of my favourites of all time. I read the book before seeing the film, often films disappoint after reading the book first, but Ridley Scott got everything spot on to be honest (although a good scene or two didn't make the film).
It's available on BBC iPlayer just now. Warmly recommended if it sounds like your thing.
It's a strange thing to do, revisiting such a classic movie. To be honest it is a bit of a fail before even starting when the original won 10 Oscars! Still, for whatever reason, Spielberg wanted to do it. It is up for quite a few Oscars actually, but I don't see it getting 10.
Anyway, I enjoyed it, for me it is a worthy update. I think that the direction is a lot more dynamic, and I prefer the modern acting, which seems more like a film and less like a filmed stage show. The respective gangs look a lot more rough & ready and the 'set pieces' were well done. OK, I'll be a heathen and say it, I prefer it to the original.
I'd probably give it 7.5/10. I liked it, but there are other musicals that I like a lot better.
Very strange and quite long film done in a neo-noir style. If you like films that are a bit strange open to interpretation then this is a good one, I loved it. Probably should be an 18 though rather than a 15
