Nothing special at all

3 good films so far this year..No Country, Juno and There will be blood

beyond that, average or dross

Havent seen Juno or There will, but watched No country on the plane back from holiday and was enjoying it until they cut the thing off with about 25 mins to go ARGHHHH



LOL worth getting on DVD. the ending is unpopular, but faithful to the book

Was watching morning telly when they were talking about this film which is about a guy who is "awake" during an operation. They reckon 1 in 700 experience this but also that the numbers could be a lot higher.

It happened to me about 14 years ago and the hospital was very quick to apologise at my bedside but at the time I was just glad to be alive. Im pretty sure it didnt go on record so im now wondering just how much higher the numbers are.

Who else has been awake during an op?
My mum was awake during an op and the hospital tryed to cover it up saying she was dreaming, she should have sued them but didnt but its pretty normal for rotherham hospital according to a few people

No Country was quite good ... not seen the other two.

Although a 2007 film, Bone Dry with Luke Goss was very good. Recommend it.

Was tempted to go see Awake, but was put off by this review on Empire:

Verdict
Less painful than having your chest cut open, but a disagreeable experience just the same.


 Grin Cheesy  a bit harsh, but on the right lines IMO
