A Dickensian nightmare of Orwellian Proportions!!

Rating: 1/10 (20 February 2009)

I thought this was a really really wonderful film although bits of it weren't. First off I have to admit I was thirty minutes late to the theatre due to an unfortunate and unavoidable incident involving francium. Anyways, my friends were already in the cinema and they said I hadn't missed much just Will Smith walking about all by himself. How does he cut his hair? I missed a bit more of the film as apparently it was my turn to get the popcorn etc. The queue was a mile long and when I got back to the cinema I couldn't find my friends and on screen there was just a bunch of animated bees buzzing around. After about half an hour I realised I'd walked in to the wrong screening room (damn these multiplex thingys!). When I did find the correct cinema there was Will Smith hugging a dog - to death! It didn't really make sense to me as Will looked to be quite distressed about killing this dog but then he went and did it anyways. What's that all about? It was then that my mobile went off. A purely random call from a complete stranger who was under the impression that I had a Yamaha DD55 drum machine for sale  which I don't but coincidentally I have a mate up in Larne who has three of them (don't ask) so I was able to hook them up. Always glad to do a good deed. I was not the most popular person in that cinema. Mean while up on the screen there was this baldy headed fellow bashing his head against a window. Then the Will Smith character killed everyone with a grenade. Why did he do that? It was confusing. Totally random!! Things I liked about this film. It was in colour. Actually, I was very keen on seeing this film as I'm a big fan of "The Omega Man". I've seen it about a million times and I'm always impressed when Charlton Heston discovers the Statue of Liberty. In the end I would recommend this film to anyone who wants to see it.
