I kinda like her CD. A bit like Tori Amos... with a head trauma. And a lot of drugs.

I for one loved Fifth Element, and I really liked her in it. I was hoping they would cast her as BloodRayne in the upcoming movie, but I suppose she was doing too many action chick films. It's a shame they got the Terminator chick for it, she just doesn't look right. Milla would have been perfect for it. Maybe she was tired of having red hair.

Okay, so I went and saw this movie last night. I'm a fan of the director's first movie, and think Milla is good in the right role, and I'm a sucker for scifi action.

Oh. My. God. Did. That. SUCK!

It has some pretty cool ideas that I handn't really seen in a movie before, mostly to do with the use of extra-dimensional pockets for storage, and a nifty little device that let Milla shift her gravity to walks on walls and such. There was also a bit of expansion on the gun-fu fighting style used in Equalibrium that was kinda cool (guns with sword blades protruding from the bottom of the handle).

And that was about all it had going for it. Bad script, horrible, horrible dialog, and lousy paceing. Some of the effects were sub-videogame level as well.

So, if there was anyone even thinking of checking this one out, even on DVD, I'd reccomend you skip it.

At least I didn't have to pay to see it.

That's too bad, 'cause Equilbrium was kinda cool.
But thanks for the warning.

On the other hand, I just saw the Daredevil directors cut, and found it to be really good (I HATED the theatrical cut).

Another plug for the UK series from me (I too have the box-set). No resemblence whatsoever to the movie trailers (yes, they both feature vampires, but that's a word that's never even used in the series).

Dark, intense, atmospheric thriller, and well worth checking out.
