Film Freak - Monsters

OMG two crap things in a row, this is bringing me down!

Arthouse aliens with a small budget and annoying leads. Alein romance and a lame romance between two American losers, if this sounds like your cup of tea go waste 90 minutes or be advised that this is totally lame and does not deserve the good reports it seems to be getting around the traps.

1 star.

Fame - I hope this is not gonna live forever

Oh boy, what a MASSIVE mess this musical was all over the shop, I have never seen something so messed up, from a high energy routine to some lame ass ballad that sucked so bad it could be illegal in 2 states and territories.

I really don't have anything good to say about this musical except it's run was cut short and it's finished now. The dancing was good in parts but it didn't make up for the shocking acting (circa Home & Away standard) and terrible singing.

Fame was a massive mess that someone needs to clean up if it wants to travel to another city in this fine brown land.

1 star for the dancing.

The Sweetest Thing @ Belvoir St Theatre

I must admit I have had some moments at the theatre this year where I would have preferred if I was 6 feet under and surpriisling enough this wasn't one of them. Sweetest Thing was indeed that and the actresses, in particular the simply beautiful Diana Glenn (man I have a lady crush on her) was terrific. She dumped her usual worried look (Satisfaction and Carla Carmetti) and managed a smile from time to time and when she smiled she was just divine.

This show was simply lovely in parts and moving in others, all the cast including Caroline Craig from Blue Heelers & Underbelly fame was also fine. As was her other sister who I didn't catch her name.

I enjoyed this a lot more than expected and I loved the 80 minute running time, short and sweet is the way a play should be.

4 stars for this little gem, running until the end of the week so get in better it's all over red rover.
