I just saw Firewall, which is really quite a dreadful film. I mean, I'm not enormously fond of action movies anyway, and Harrison Ford does tend to detract from them rather, but it's not even a good film of its type.

Then again, it has Paul Bettany. Being evil, and British. And quite possibly shagging Nikolaj Coster Waldau again; Russell Crowe should keep an eye on the competition.

I think probably my favourite moment was when the PA person said "You know, you're the only banker I've met who drinks tea."

See, Harrison? If you were a real man you'd kill someone with a teapot, not a lameass cafetiere.

Yup. This is only one for the truly desperate-for-a-fix Bettany fans, I'm afraid.





I'll probably watch it again this evening.

:D?

I rented that one purely to see Paul being evil (and British).

I...do not actually remember most of the plot details. I mean, the big stuff, sure, but when I try to focus on details all I remember is that Harrison Ford ended up stealing all the money with a jury-rigged device that included his daughter's iPod.

It really is a hideous movie... I love your summary, though. XD Real men can kill with teapots, totally.

And I scoff at Russell's competition. I mean, come on. That stubble is pathetic. You can't even tell it's there without a magnifying glass. And really, Paul, can you seriously resist this sadface (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v109/ljpixx/russ/mags/HSIE2-4-06pic1a.jpg) for longer than ten seconds?
