Hustle 6.06 Series 6 Episode 6 of 6 (2010, Light Crime Adventure) – 7/10 TV review

Hustle 6.06 Series 6: Episode 6 of 6 (2010) Bringing a share scam to a conclusion, the team are horrified when their mark turns out to be an undercover policeman. He quickly steps aside, however, as a pair of MI6 operatives come in with the offer of freedom if Mickey steals something for them from the vault of the National Bank of Syria. 7/10 The plotting is obvious but, as the show keeps telling, the mark needs to be greedy in order for a long-game con to work on them. This time the mark is essentially Mickey himself and, as we’ve seen, he and his crew don’t do this for riches. It’s a thin line, but one that allows the show to keep it’s fun / guilt balance firmly on the side of fun. This has been an entertaining series of undesirables getting taken to the cleaners in glossy good-looking colour. While the plotting rarely pulls the wool over audiences eyes (especially not after six seasons), the generous winks to camera make us feel part of the team. As to whether we should be complicit and find criminals conning criminals fun, well, that is an interesting question. This Hustle episode contains bad language, adult dialogue and violence and sexuality. Links Previous episode:

Hustle 6.05 Series 6: Episode 5 of 6 (2010) After being scammed by an internet retailer (a dodgy phone) a glum Mickey realises that he fallen prey to the grifter’s curse: a scammer who gets scammed loses his mojo. With Mickey’s luck and confidence shot, it’s up to the rest of the team to try and win them back by targeting the businessman who scammed Mickey. 7/10 It’s a lot more fun than it should be but they are so mean to Eddie. Odious baddie of the week (dreaming of wowing the Dragon’s on Dragon’s Den in a cute sequence though it was a shame they couldn’t get Richard Branson to appear as himself later) is delightfully boo-hiss-worthy and slimy while the invention he invests in is a hoot.

Hustle 6.04 Series 6: Episode 4 of 6 (2010) Sean blows the latest con by failing to switch a briefcase and striding after a man entering an elevator. When he returns, he is disgusted with himself for letting the team down and not violently exacting punishment on the man: his father, who abandoned Emma and him when he was three-years-old. 8/10 A good deal more interesting than the usual ‘this time it’s personal’ stories that crop up in television shows as it believably develops characters without the need for rabbit-out-of-a-hat plot jumps.

Hustle 6.03 Series 6: Episode 3 of 6 (2010) When one of Albert’s machinations ends abruptly mid-scam thanks to the untimely death of his partner, he needs to find £500,000 by Friday in order to keep all his fingers. The team help but surely that is too much, even for Michael Stone. 7/10 Good fun as the team need to quickly come up with £500,000 and turn to an odious playboy who wants to scam his insurance company. The plot spends a little more time on how to convince the mark to go along with the con whereas most episodes tend to weigh much more toward the execution of the con. The good thing about the convincing is that it is less predictable and therefore more interesting than the execution which tends to simply and obviously omit dialogue in order to ‘surprise’ the audience instead of constructing an imaginative or surprising plot. There is a significant hole in this week’s plot though: the team’s use of Eddie’ Bar and the apartment means that both of the antagonists could simply return there with unpleasant intentions. Adrian Lester’s real wife Lolita Chakrabarti plays the museum curator. This Hustle episode contains bad language, adult dialogue. Links Next episode Previous episode

MacDonald Creator: Tony Jordan Mark Benton: Finch Nick Sidi: Clifford Davis Writer (Original Idea): Bharat Nalluri

Hustle 6.02 Series 6: Episode 2 of 6 (2010) While seeing Albert off at the airport – he’s going to relax in Vegas – the crew run into ‘Liability’ Finch who has just stolen a Van Gogh but had to leave it in Brazil. He asks Mickey for his help but Mickey insists he’ll only bring them unwanted attention and trouble. 6/10 Mark Benton is charmless and irritating at best (he’s the fat guy off those reverse-psychology Nationwide Building Society adverts) but the episode bad guy, an ambitious Customs cop, is great. That said, it definitely feels a bit off that the cop is not totally corrupt; he’s playing two sets of crims off each other to recover a stolen painting. Presumably, last week’s supercop Indira Varma will only now turn up again the last episode of the season. Shame. Links Next episode Previous episode

MacDonald Indira Varma: Lucy Britford Patrick Ryecart: Sir Edmund Richardson Writer (Original Idea): Bharat Nalluri Executive Producer: Tony Jordan

Hustle 6.01 Series 6: Episode 1 of 6 (2010) Fresh from scamming a creepy sheik with a meet-and-greet with Kylie Minogue (Emma “I don’t even look like Kylie” Kennedy, of course), the team set about their next target, Sir Edmund Richardson, a banker with an huge pension despite the near-collapse of his bank. 7/10 It’s largely predictable but it’s largely fun. Sadly, Kelly Adams and Adrian Lester have no chemistry rendering her jealousy woefully unconvincing. Fun new foe Indira Varma, however, definitely does and the episode works best when she and Adrian Lester are butting brains. Links Next episode Previous episode

The Hurt Locker (2008, Iraq War Movie) – 7/10 movie review

Cast / crew Director: Kathryn Bigelow Writer: Mark Boal Producer: Kathryn Bigelow Producer: Mark Boal Producer: Nicolas Chartier Producer: Greg Shapiro Jeremy Renner: Staff Sergeant William James Anthony Mackie: Sergeant J.T. Sanborn Brian Geraghty: Specialist Owen Eldridge Christian Camargo: Colonel John Cambridge Evangeline Lilly: Connie James Ralph Fiennes: Contractor Team Leader David Morse: Colonel Reed Guy Pearce: Sergeant Matt Thompson

Hurt Locker, The (2008) Bomb technician Staff Sergeant William James is replacing a killed member of a three-man team in Iraq but the other members find his arrogant fearlessness difficult to take to. 7/10 Tightly focused Iraq war film which fails to resist the temptation to briefly go off into ‘this time it’s personal’ nonsense but quickly gets back to the job at hand after our hero and the film has made a bit of a fool of itself. That job is the extraordinarily dangerous one of defusing of roadside bombs though the best sequence is probably the one with Ralph Fiennes mercenary crew. It is superbly tense, impeccably designed and choreographed and includes character development that unfolds naturally as part of the action instead of being relegated, as elsewhere, to a separate bonding sequence. It’s a trick James Cameron used in The Terminator (his plot is explained during a car chase: "he will never, ever stop") and it makes you wonder why more writers don’t do it. Perhaps it’s harder than it looks. This movie contains sexual swear words, mild adult dialogue and war violence, gory and unpleasant scenes. Classified 15 by BBFC.

Seraphim Falls (2006, Revenge Chase Western) – 6/10 movie review

Cast / crew Director: David Von Ancken Writer: David Von Ancken Writer: Abby Everett Jaques Pierce Brosnan: Gideon Liam Neeson: Carver Michael Wincott: Hayes Xander Berkeley: Railcrew Foreman Ed Lauter: Parsons Tom Noonan: Minister Abraham Kevin J. O’Connor: Henry John Robinson: Kid Angie Harmon: Rose Anjelica Huston: Madame Louise

Seraphim Falls (2006) Gideon, owner of the world’s biggest coat, is being pursed by Carver, owner of the world’s second biggest coat, and his posse. Though there’s probably more to it than that. 6/10 While Seraphim Falls starts brilliantly as Liam Neeson and his men hunt Pierce Brosnan, this tidy western deflates it’s own tension way too early (when Brosnan spends the night at a house mid-chase) and co-writer / director David Von Ancken never gets it back. It didn’t need the stops with civilisation along the way; all that really mattered is the drama of a pursuer and the pursued. However, there’s plenty here to admire including an uncommon snowy backdrop, a story with subtext to extract (while Brosnan’s character being called Gideon and the film Seraphim Falls is certainly not a coincidence, I don’t know what it means), Pierce Brosnan on excellent form, and Wes Studi and Anjelica Huston agreeably materialising late on. This movie contains two sexual swear words and brief graphic gun and knife violence, gory and unpleasant scenes, unpleasant scenes of treating a bullet wound.   Classified 15 by BBFC.

Medal of Honor: Airborne (2007, WWII First-Person Shooter, 360) – 8/10 game review

Cast / crew Creative Director: Jon Paquette Producer: Christopher A. Busse Producer: Tom Hess Producer: Matt Marsala Producer: Neville Spiteri Producer: T.J. Stamm Lead Designer: Rex Dickson

Medal of Honor: Airborne (2007) World War II: Private Boyd Travers is a member of the US Army’s first airborne division and is about to see his first paratrooper action as part of Operation Husky. 8/10 This is nearly a very great game but the critical suspension of disbelief isn’t sustained thanks to poor enemy design and inadequate ammunition impact. It doesn’t matter how much body armour you’re wearing (in the case of this game, though, it’s none), being shot hurts and affects your ability to perform. Always. Even just being shot at affects your performance. Not if you’re a German soldier wearing black cloth and a gas mask, apparently. However, the levels available here are works of genius. They all look good with the Operation Varsity and Der Flakturm levels being unusual and spectacular. They are constructed in such a way that, generally, the entire level is accessible both as a start point and a waypoint. They feel like the best large multi-path, multi-level, multiplayer maps but work exceptionally well in every way as single-player areas. It makes Airborne unexpectedly unique amongst shooters and should be played by all genre fans. This game contains war violence, unpleasant scenes.   Classified 16+ by PEGI. The game is only suitable for persons who have reached the age of 16 or over.. Classified Violence by PEGI. Game contains depictions of violence.

Romanzo Criminale aka Crime Novel (2005, Period Crime Drama) – 7/10 movie review

Romanzo Criminale aka Crime Novel (2005) "In the mid 70s a gang of hoodlums set out from the suburbs to conquer Rome. While following their naïve and terrible dream, they formed dangerous alliances. They felt immortal." 7/10 Well-made crime-doesn’t-pay drama that feels more shallow than probably intended. However, it is quite unusual for showing that sometimes (frequently?) criminals don’t have a heart of gold and that they are entirely happy being horrible and striving after money, possessions and power. Despite this and a forehead-slappingly stupid kidnapping early on (SPOILER for no reason, they deliberately kill the victim after holding him for a month while preparing to take a picture proving he is alive), the quality acting, production and direction easily keep you watching and there are some interesting scenes as well. The criminals clearly feel immortal but without reason and it surprises them when it catches up with them. Vengeance is meaningless and self-destructive. There are crimes that our bloodthirsty criminals clearly but oddly think are a bit much (such as a train station bombing and having a prostitute for a girlfriend). Such a moral double-standard definitely exists in the real world and it is highly intriguing. This movie contains sexual swear words, adult dialogue and substance abuse and graphic violence and sex scenes, nudity.   Classified 15 by BBFC. Suitable only for persons of 15 years and over.

Croc (2007, Jaws-like Monster Horror) – 5/10 movie review

Cast / crew Michael Madsen: Croc Hawkins Peter Tuinstra: Jack McQuade Sherry Phungprasert: Evelyn Namawong Elizabeth Healey: Allison Scott Hazell: Theo Producer: Charles Salmon Writer: Ken Solarz Director: Stewart Raffill

Croc (2007) The arrival of a man-eating crocodile in the area seems the perfect way for an evil hotel construction company to get rid of a local crocodile and wildlife tourist attraction which is in the way of a road they would like to build. 5/10 For this kind of no-budget Jaws-lite horror, Croc is satisfactory entertainment. For the most part, it’s crisply put together, Peter Tuinstra does a nice job of pretending it all makes sense (an evil hotel construction company wants to close a local tourist attraction, wha?), the largely low-key croc attacks are handled well enough and a kid gets eaten after refusing to come out of the water and his dad tells him ‘well, I’ll just let the croc eat you then.’ This movie contains crocodile attack violence, gory and unpleasant scenes.

Up (2009, Disney Pixar Fantasy Adventure) – 7/10 movie review

Up (2009) After a long happy marriage, widower Carl Fredricksen decides to do the one thing he and his wife never managed: travel to South America and Paradise Falls in Venezuela. So, he attaches hundreds of helium-filled balloons to his house and embarks on a new adventure. 7/10 Opening with what may be Pixar’s strongest-yet sequence (welling up at the beginning of a movie, blimey) as Carl Fredricksen goes from boy to man, through love and marriage and the heartbreak of infertility and death, Up then takes to the skies, arrives in South America and, only then, struggles to suspend disbelief rendering the remainder of the movie good but obviously manipulative and non-sensical. 10/10 for the first part, 6/10 for the rest. Michael Giacchino supplies a terrific central theme which is highly evocative of Chaplin, delivers the strong emotional power of the wordless ‘married life’ montage and helps give the movie an agreeably timeless feel. Amazingly, you can’t buy it on CD. This movie contains violence.   Classified U by BBFC. Universal: Suitable for All.

The DaVinci Code (2006, Religious Conspiracy Thriller) – 6/10 movie review

DaVinci Code, The (2006) Harvard Symbologist and random-job-title-generator Robert Langdon is taken to the Louvre where he is asked to decipher a bizarre message left for him by the murdered curator. 6/10 Because we are so familiar with movie narrative technique, the movie doesn’t distract us as successfully as Dan Brown’s original novel and ends up being rather dull for a long time. Elements that worked fine on paper are weak on screen (a dying dude leaves the most complex and spread out message in history, the villain is transparent, chases seem out-of-place, the two-thousand-year-old secret is known by just about everyone). It still has a couple of powerful moments largely due to it’s gleefully contentious and genuinely thought-provoking plot and Hans Zimmer supplies some terrific music for a strong, contemplative epilogue. BBFC 12A was the wrong certificate; this is an adult film with consistently adult and challenging content. This movie contains mild swear words and self-flagellation, execution by burning, strong violence, gory and extremely unpleasant scenes and male genitals of blinding light, non-sexual nudity.   Classified 12A by BBFC.

Sherlock 1.03 The Great Game (2010, Crime Detective Drama) – 7/10 TV review

Sherlock 1.03 Great Game, The (2010) A bored Sherlock is bemoaning the lack of crime but the spark soon comes back when he is forced to solve five crimes against the ticking clock of a bomb around innocent persons bodies. 7/10 While there’s a nagging feeling that it isn’t achieving it’s potential, this is unquestionably the best new show on British television in 2010 and for some time. There’s a glee and energy to proceedings and the deductions from Sherlock are terrific fun. It would be nice if the audience were given the same clues as Sherlock (we still wouldn’t see them, of course) and I still feel that all this Moriarty business is too soon. It’s like end-of-the-world scenarios in Doctor Who. If every episode is Armageddon, it becomes the norm; the ordinary when it should be the extraordinary. For Sherlock, if everything runs through Moriarty’s fingers, it makes Moriarty’s involvement the norm; the ordinary when it should be the extraordinary.

Angels & Demons (2009, Vatican Thriller) – 8/10 movie review

Angels & Demons (2009) Symbologist and profession-title-creator-extraordinaire Robert Langdon is brought in by the Vatican when the preferiti – favourites to be elected as Pope – are kidnapped. Their execution is scheduled one every hour along with a single ambigram indicating the identity of the perpetrator: Illuminati. 8/10 Superbly directed, brilliantly photographed race-against-time thriller which successfully meshes misdirects and movie tropes with a sounds-intelligent and revealing backdrop of a centuries-old butting of heads between the Illuminati and The Vatican. Ron Howard keeps the gruesome demises fully intact for the UK home release and utilises some great effects to stage the action in the world-famous locations (the filmmakers didn’t shoot at The Vatican). It’s this meshing of thriller and unique visuals that helps make Angels & Demons unusual and interesting. The script does a good job of keeping the historical, religious and technical dialogue intelligible, gives Ewan MacGregor a good (but out-of-place) speech about religion waiting for science to catch up but occasionally feels like you can hear the nuts and bolts of plot propulsion. However, this is a good movie and good adaptation of the novel. This movie contains mild swear words and gory and extremely unpleasant scenes, violence.   Classified 15 by BBFC.

Monsters, Inc. (2001, Animated Fantasy Adventure) – 8/10 movie review

"Sully"] Sullivan Billy Crystal: Mike Mary Gibbs: Boo Steve Buscemi: Randall [Boggs] James Coburn: Waternoose Jennifer Tilly: Celia

Monsters, Inc. (2001) James P. Sullivan is the top scarer at Monsters, Inc., the company that provides Monster City with its electricity. They get the electricity from children’s screams, harvested by sending terrifying monsters through their closet doors. However, it is becoming more and more difficult to scare children in their modern world and the fact that children are toxic to monsters is not helping matters. 8/10 Remarkably accomplished adventure that has all kinds of layers and resonances and works for children and adults without resorting to dirty jokes. Unusually, it’s messages (laughter is better than fear, parents anger scares children even when it is not targeted at them) are entirely positive and delivered without bitterness while technically it’s astonishing. Sully, the obvious stand-out, looks better than the many real-life versions of him that you can buy and the scene where he has snow-tipped hair fluttering on the Himalayas is totally remarkable. I think that, in Pixar’s first decade, even though they’re all good, this is their best film. Classified U by BBFC. Universal: Suitable for All.

Sherlock 1.02 The Blind Banker (2010, Crime Detective Drama) – 6/10 TV review

Cast / crew Benedict Cumberbatch: Sherlock Holmes Martin Freeman: Dr. John Watson Creator: Mark Gatiss Creator: Steven Moffat Writer: Steve Thompson Writer (Original Works): Arthur Conan Doyle Producer: Sue Vertue Director: Euros Lyn Executive Producer: Mark Gatiss Executive Producer: Steven Moffat

Sherlock 1.02 Blind Banker, The (2010) Shortly after being terrified by a graffiti symbol, people in locked rooms are dying sudden mysterious deaths. 6/10 Successfully giving Watson more to do and allowing Holmes to be occasionally undermined by his own self-centred arrogance are highlights in an episode (loosely based on The Adventure of the Dancing Men) that is rather less successful in disguising an abundance of deus ex machina. So Sherlock can come to the rescue at a secret gang hideout based on the word "tramway" while manipulating time and space to arrive barely minutes after the baddies ; a damp Yellow Pages, a really cool clue in itself, connects a Chinese woman to his current case except it doesn’t; and people react with horror to a cipher message that they haven’t yet decoded. The Moriarty coda is, again, awful and so unnecessary. However, the identity of ‘a book everyone owns’ has a satisfying answer (SPOILER an A-Z London map guide), there’s some nice scenery of modern London (hello to The Gherkin) and the episode as a whole is entertaining. I think British television finally has it’s replacement for Inspector Morse. This Sherlock episode contains mild swear words, adult dialogue and violence.   Classified 12 by BBFC.
