05.24.06 | Weird Wednesday | Her eyes were darker than amber... I never read any of these books but feel like if i either read much faster than I do of find myself needing like 20 books to go through I would definitely check them out. Like Lars mentioned in his intro, what guy wouldn't want to bum around on a boat all day, falling into crazy adventures and sleeping with random hot women... Yeah, all you need in life is a boat, scotch whiskey and lovely ladies... So this movie is pretty decent. Like Lars also mentioned, the second act trips up a bit and gets pretty slow, but it's redeemed by the ending... actually it's redeemed completely by William Smith's psychopathic heavy... Nothing better than a bleached-blonde musclebound freak with bright red blood covering his face running around a dock and knocking random people over. Truly the sort of thing you just don't see every day. There's also a few random great lines ("I get moody when I lose things", "yes, I am a lovely lady") but mostly this is just a pulpy Florida tough guy movie... good stuff. |
