Film Freak - Transformers 2

Well I only watched the first Transformers film a little while back and thought besides it being way too long for an action film this was actually not such a bad film especially Shia LaBouf (Delicious!)!

The second film picks off where the first one left it (and no doubt there will be a a third one in the pipeline) and carries the story quiet well.

The action sequences in this film are done so well with the sound effects and soundtrack working extremely well to create a full on experience for the viewer.

Overall this movie packs a lot of action and some mildly amusing comedy into one of Winter's biggest blockbusters!

Transformers rates a big robotic 3 stars.

2. Bliss N Eso - On Tour
3. MSTRKRFT - It Ain't Love ft. Lil Mo
4. Regina Spektor - Laughing With

Film Freak - I Love You Man

See my previous review of "The Hangover" for the best Bro-Mance movie of 2009

Now to this film, Paul Rudd is slightly adorable and always manages to make me have a soft spot for him as he has an adorable smile and quiet dreamy eyes.

Onto the movie and not Paul Rudd, this movie like the Hangover also makes all the females out to be complete bitches!

This film shows you the struggles men have finding another men friends.

I did enjoy this take on the romantic comedy genre which has been done to death and really pisses me off, see reviews such as "He is Just Not That Into You" EHHHHHH terrible film!

I Love You Man rates a fairly gay 2 and a half stars

Film Freak - State of Play

Go Russell Crowe, the first movie I have seen you in and not thought you were a complete tosser!

This film was tight with a good engrossing story line and strong performances from the main roles including Russell Crowe.

Not a must see on the BIG screen but still one I would get out when it hits the DVD store, State of Play rates a solid 3 and a half stars.

Film Freak - The Hangover

No expectations can be a good thing these days, and that's what I had for this movie and
let me tell you I ended up laughing so much it hurt at times!

This film followed four men (all from different walks of life) and there bacheolr party in
Sin City (Las Vegas) including the night out where all the dramas unfoled! And boy was
there drama!

Great movie and cast (some of which you will be seeing a lot more of).

Make sure you do catch this Hollywood comedy as it is actually well worth a look.

4 stars for a very drunken Hangover that leaves you laughing so much you actually think
you are pissed.

Rueben Gutherie

Another night at the Theatre and a much different story to Steel Magnolia's.
Writtern by the wonderfrul Brendan Cowell.

The play also features a well known Underbelly actor whicgh always helps the bums on seats
factor!

The play is tops and really is relevenat to today's working and non-working environment
including the pressures to succeed and also perform if it means costing you everything!
Great play and a great time to be showing this play, also like the 6:30pm nana time on
Tuesday!

5 stars for this Cowell masterpiece!

Steel Magnolia's

I have never seen the movie and went in knowing little about the story and kinda like
doing this when seeing a show which was orginally a movie.

The cast is amazing especially the FAB Jackie Weaver! She is just dreamy and so over the
top, I love her!

The story itself was heartfelt and very emotional espically the man yesterday, dude get
some klennex.

Ths show is running until the end of June and I loved it!

Steel Magnolia's rates a tear jerking 4 stars!

Burn da Floor

Well I saw this show a year ago and loved it! This year the show moved to the Theatre
Royal and was extremely well polished!

The dancers and dance routines were mostly the same hoever the way they used the space
they were given should have been admired!

I do always love a dance show and I love hearing old ladies say "that just exhausted me at
the end".

Burn the Floor burned up a storm with the oldies at this matinee performance and rates 4
stars!

Dinner & Show meets Cruise Ship Entertainment

Chi Chi & Cha Cha
Slide Nightclub – Wed 3 June 2009

Well I do love a dinner & show particularly when the show is so funny you nearly wet your panties!

So what happens when two cruise ship entertainers enter onto Dry Land and wear extremely exciting costumes? Well they sing crazy cover songs and interact with the crowd in a very interesting and slightly unusual manner!

The show is FAB and the food even more so!
Differently a top night out, especially when comedy is so in demand at the moment and if you’re a foodie you will love this treat!

Make sure you check out this hoot of a night out, 5 stars!

I lost my shit on Friday & Saturday Nite (literally)

Well for those who know me know I don’t drink a lot and when I do it’s a little wild, and this is exactly what happened on Friday night, I feel sorry for my workmates who had to put up with my performance and rampage on Sydney’s homosexual neighborhood!

The finale to May 2009 continued on Saturday night where I lost my shit on the dance floor to the one and only Presets!

I caught most of the FAB Architecture in Helsinki set which was so much fun, hit’s like “Heart it Races” (who my friend thought the lyrics were “You’re a Racist”) and “That Beep” were tops! They also threw into the mix a cover of Womack & Womack “Teardrops” an old disco fav!

Then the Presets came on Stage to a massive sold out response! They played through all their hits like “Talk Like That”, “My People”, a new version “If I Know You” and more it was a truly amazing experience and really proved those two men are definitely still on top of the Aussie dance scene!

The Presets and my shit loosing weekend rates 5 stars YAY!

A Night @ at the Theatre - Beyond the Neck

This was a truly touching piece of theatre and featured the former Country Practice child star Jamie Croft who still looked the same!

The play was about one of the most horrible events in Australian history the Port Arthur Massacre. The Play was performed in quiet an eerie manner and the scene where the theatre went completely black and the only thing you heard was the four actors was a truly terrifying experience.

The piece was terrific and I enjoyed the full hour, this rates 4 touching stars
