"Before you know it as the years go by, you're just like other people you have seen, with all those peculiar human ailments. Just another vehicle for temper and vanity and rashness and all the rest. Who wants it? Who needs it? These things occupy the place where a man's soul should be." -- Henderson the Rain King

Match Point

Film #19 on my '07 watch list was Match Point.

My NetFlix rating: 2 1/2 stars
Jamie says: Much more entertaining if you picture Woody Allen in the male lead role. Not sure why this one got such good reviews, I loves me some Woody Allen but I found this pretty meh overall.
RIYL: Scarlett Johansson

Scoop

Geez, been about a week since I posted and unfortunately this post isn't going to be the most exciting one ever. I'd like to thank the flu, my broken hard drive, and too much work for the slower than normal service. Anyways, on with the show.

Film #7 of '07 was the newish Woody Allen film Scoop, not to be confused with NSync's Lance Bass (nicknamed Scoop because "when (the guys) ask me about our itinerary, I always know."). Lance Bass also nicknamed Princess Frostylocks. Sweet.

My NetFlix rating: 2 stars
Jamie says: Yawn. I loves me some Woody Allen, but this one was just a little too Legally Blonde 3 for me.
RIYL: Hugh Jackman, bad magic tricks, Murder She Wrote style mysteries
