The Matrix was the last great science-fiction film? What an idiot. The Shrike Send a noteboard - 04/11/2009 05:44:47 PM
I came across this article in the Guardian, and I thought others might want to read it. It is a semi-rant on Hollywood going safe by making any number of identical movies.


Ignoring wonderful and original science-fiction films like Moon and District 9 from just this year. Furthermore, I would argue that Wall-E is science-fiction too. This author makes me angry.

Top class mob film? Something like the wonderful The Departed from 2006?

Man, this critic is myopic.
