Mini Film Reviews: (available from your local blockbuster on dvd/vid)

"igby goes down" tragic "comedy". about a rich teenage american with a messed up family and his sucky life. fairly dull, not much empathy, or character sympathy, not hilariously funny, a bit sad. it's sort of like a "black comedy" but nowhere near as good as other films.

"hope springs" romantic comedy. british chap goes to america to get away from his fiance who's just dumped him for another man. quite funny, entertaining, quite good overall.

"a guy thing" comedy romance. guy has a bachelor party (stag do), sleeps with another woman (not his fiance). very funny film, with quite a lot of LOLs. Yes some bits are slightly predictable (aren't all films) but it's funny, and nice. recommended. (ps - some / well one of the deleted scenes is absolutely hilarious!!)
