With Markus. While Benicio Del Toro is a first-rate actor, he picks some
really crappy movies to partake in; The Hunted was
terrible. Conversely, The Boondock Saints was great; Willem Dafoe hammed it up
amongst an impressive cast of Irish and wannabe Irish. The Russians, as
always, got the rawest deal.
In Göteborg, in English with Swedish subtitles at Filmstaden. The ticket
was about $AU18 and the seats are cramped (and pre-allocated). This might be
the best way of picking up the vocab... (The movie itself was pretty funny,
with Johnny Depp hamming it up beautifully. Geoffrey Rush makes a good
pirate... Only probs were that I couldn't make much sense of the plot, and
the fight scenes were a tad predictable and mostly pointless. Great CGI,
though.)
