After a visit to The Raven pub in Bath for a pie and a pint, I went with Simon and Mr. Watkins to watch Outlaw at the cinema. I had been promised extreme violence and chav beatings. Sadly, I was left disappointed.
The movie was shit and the acting diabolical. A scene where Danny Dyer returns with his fiancée to a roadside where he was previously attacked, stands out.
Fiancée: “Why have you come back here?
Dyer: “I don’t know”
One piece of acting that all budding drama students should study, taking note on how not to perform!
I liked Danny Dyer in Football Factory and Severance, but when he has to play a more serious role, I feel that he is missing something. Hopefully his new film, where he stars alongside the beautiful Gillian Anderson, will be significantly better.
It is a shame the movie was so poor, especially after the success of the excellent Hot Fuzz, 2007 was looking a promising year for the UK film industry. Still, I am confident of some more British films making an impact over the next 9 months.

With all these television shows and films from the past getting censored or banned, in light of recent events, I was amazed when my brain recalled a movie from my childhood... Short Circuit. Well, two movies, considering there was also a popular sequel, imaginatively named Short Circuit 2.

It has probably been over 15 years since I last watched the film, but for reasons I am unable to explain, I was drawn to watching Drop Dead Fred.

Roman has a new favourite film!
This morning, he sat in this run, silently watching a movie I put on. He was enthralled! The title of the film... The Velveteen Rabbit!
I don't know if it'll beat his all time favourite - Keeping Up Appearances - but as far as movies go, he loves this one.

So you stumbled across my blog. No doubt after searching for something bizarre on Google. Before you hit that 'Back Button', why not stay and have a read for a few minutes?
If you are after a website which gives advice on how to hack an iPhone X, download the latest Steven Seagal movie, or view nudy ladies, you've come to the wrong place and may now press 'Back'.
However, if you would like a lifestyle blog, written by a 30-something chap, living in Bath (England), feast your eyes on this.
You won't discover how to copy PlayStation 4 games. What you will find is a blog, covering life in the West Country, the highs and lows of supporting two unsuccessful football teams, while sharing a house with a wife and rabbit.
All written by a man, somewhere on the sanity-scale between normal and eccentric.
