Slide - El Circo - Take Two

I travelled along to Oxford Street for El Circo almost a year ago now and loved every minute of it, it was really great!

This time around with a lovely Christmas theme it was simply fantastic, the live entertainment, the food the atmosphere were all five star and after sitting through Twilight - New Moon let's face it, anything was going to be more spectacular!

A big round of applause also for the fab drag queen who hosted the show and ran the evening so well, very exciting evening!

5 stars for this fab evening out!

Film Freak - Twilight - New Moon

Well I gave in and saw Twilight - A New Moon, it really wasn't as bad as I thought, I mean the first movie was so diabolical nothing could really be that bad. The acting was non existent, the plot (well let's face it there was none) and to top of it the new sexiest man alive looks like he may belong in a special needs facility.

Okay so the story was as EMO as all hell with a decent soundtrack (I am sure the bands and artists on this soundtrack will now lose there die hard fans after this) and some hot boys.

What scares me with this movie franchise is it's all about love and romance but there is no sex and to top that off not even much kissing WTF!

Let's dace it this series is not that believable and the terrible acting and facial expressions on the female lead bleak Bella just is too much sometimes. I found myself laughing aloud at the shocking dialogue and the serve EMO moments.

Okay so this sounds like a complete waste of time and money so here are the good points:

1. Jacob - once he looses that god awful long hair
2. The special Effects - are a million times better than the first joke of a film
3. The soundtrack - Lykki Li, Death Cab, Lupe, basically an all star line up
4. The action scenes are fairly good

So it's not all bad but it's no great success either.

1 and half stars (mainly for the shirtless, hot short wearing boys :)

Film Freak - Where the Wild Things Are

Why, I ask Why are kids movies this year not really all that suitable for kids (see previous Up 3D review).

Now I Say this as the starting scene was enough to scare the short shorts off me! A kid growling bounding down stairs and chasing a rather large dog = scary!

Anyway firstly the music from Karen O (Yeah Yeah Yeah's) is simply amazing, I loved every minute of her work on this movie, amazing! A soundtrack to be proud to own I say!

The movie now is good but a little long for a conversion from a children's book, however the effects, the wild things and the story is pretty cute, however slightly touching at the same time.

The movie has a lot going for it and I think if you want to stay out of the sun and stay in the cool this summer there is definitely a lot worse out there that you could sit through, 3 stars.
