God is in the rain
No, I'm not suddenly giving you spiritual BS...this is just one of the lines in the movie "V for Vendetta"... and although I absolutely love Natalie Portman, I have to say I'm disappointed!
Not that the acting was bad, or the production, or the music... everything was perfect, but in a Hollywood kind of way. The movie was such a cliche, I can't even begin to describe it! And it's very unfortunate, because it actually had, if you will, a "valuable message".
The movie tells the story of this Zoro-like hero that fights for justice in a future world with a very totalitarian British government. The whole idea of Britain, or any other country for that matter, gaining that much power freaks me out and I believe the movie touches on some important issues regarding how governments use fear to rule people. It could, however, be less of a cliche I think and that's just my opinion. Another $10.95 wasted on a movie that could be watched on DVD!
It's raining in Vancouver, BTW, and aside from the cheesy line in the movie, I actually do like the rain and do think that God , perhaps, is in the rain...

Wow, last night we were at Paramount and in doubt to choose between V and Inside Man. U know how I feel about Nat, however we went for Inside Man and it WAS worth $10.95. I thought V is an Orwellian Matrix-like flick but it seems I have to skip it...
Mehdi,
It's funny how we always end up in the same places at the same times... good thing you chose the "Inside Man" for sure... I like Judie Foster even better than Natalie Portman!
Happy new template! Kheily bahariye ...
I second Inside Man. Cool blog here. Keep up.

Mohaajer jan,
Thanx a lot! It was getting a bit boring, had to change something! It doesn't look as nice as I want though, wish I had the time AND knowledge to design my own page, but for the time being I have to live with what Blogger has to offer... for free!
Amirali,
Thanx. I didn't watch Inside Man, guess that has to wait for a while then!
