The Happening

By Delrondu | Cinema

It’ll take a second viewing for a fairer judgement as my perception of the movie was clouded. But it should be safe to say, this is M. Night’s weakest. Rating: 5 / 10 (Full review at silverscreen.thinkbrune.com in case you can’t be bothered with the lengthy rant below)

Searching for Night

By Delrondu | Cinema, Confession, Rambles

Jackie Chan had two lines, and those were the best, most understandable English ever delivered in his entire Hollywood
