Flood (2007)
Lots of water
A huge flood hits London. It's a disaster movie-series thing (two episodes in the format that I saw).
I can only say, it's an aptly named disaster movie. The movie is a complete disaster. Mostly ... people splashing or failing to splash in lots of water mostly in enclosed spaces where the sets must have cost all of several hundred dollars to build. Not including the water, of course.
Lots of dialogue like "Oh my god" and "we're not going to make it." Lots of people looking at each other with long faces. More water. More splashing.
Now appearing on a movie channel near you. If you get a chance to see it, do something else, you will be glad you did.
Conspiracy of Silence (2003)
Leave politics out of film reviews
I am going to watch this movie in the next day or so. Preliminary to that, I scanned a few reviews here. I want to say, if you cannot write a film review without making your political views the centerpiece of your review, as at least one person did here, then please don't write a review, and if you are that person here, take your review down. I am sick and tired of having every politically relevant film ... or book .. be treated as a reason to get up on a personal political soapbox. I don't give a rat's you know what, what your political views are. I am not here for political commentary. I want to know about the film, and only the film. If you can't write about that, then go away. I will be back with my review of this film in the next day or so after I have seen it. Meanwhile I am giving it the average number of stars it has now, so as not to skew the aggregate rating. You're welcome.
