Bloody Amazing

Rating: 9/10 (2 September 2002)

I got dragged to see this film when it was first in the cinema by an old girlfriend. "Oh No, i thought a load of schmolzy rubbish". I was planning on having a good sleep!!
But, it blew me away. It is fantastic. The language is a little tricky to get use to, but as soon as you stop trying to understand every word and learn to listen to the flow of the film, it all makes perfect sense. There is humour, Drama, fine action and acting and great Direction. Baz Lurhman is truly a genius.
I got it on dvd last year, and got some odd looks from my current girlfriend. "trust me," I said "You'll love it." and guess what? she did.
