    The China Syndrome (1979)


    Having only recently watched this film I was surprised by the unbiassed view of nuclear energy. I was half expecting a typical, in your face, 'anti' film. instead it was more a view of why things do go wrong, and putting the blame on bureucracy rather than simply bashing nuclear energy. Jane Fonda couldn't act her way out of a shoe-box with a crowbar (but never could) and a few other characters were a little stiff. Michael Douglass really shined through though as a gung-ho, do anything for the footage, freelance camera journalist. Overall, very enjoyable if your in the mood for a catastrophe 'almost' flick.

    There Will Be Blood (2007)


     There Will Be Blood is a very interesting portrayal of life as an oil-man in the early 20th century. For a topic which is rarely covered I found it less informative than I would have liked, which is not to say that I didn't like the film. The character of Daniel Plainview portrayed by Daniel Day-Lewis was as harsh a character as any I have seen played before. Ruthless and seemingly heartless with an undertow of self-pity, I could only imagine what his own upbringing would have been like. Also the townspeople, especially the young priest played by Paul Dano were stark and weather beaten, which helped the films overall feeling of futility.

    8 stars out of 10 for this one.
