 Too many films in close succession
Tonight (well, Monday night) I did see a film called Saw, which I enjoyed, not least because it featured Ben from Lost. I followed this film with 'Children of Men', which annoyed me. It annoyed me on many levels and so I began to wonder whether it was the fact that I had just seen a film that night that meant the second film was so annoying or whether it was just an annoying film. Let me explain: when your car windscreen shatters into hundreds of pieces, you don't expect it to get magically replaced without the assitance of some kind of car glazier or whatever. And also . . . even if I had never rowed a boat before, I would assume that a rowing boat just doesn't stop because one of the passengers shouts out, "Oh look, the buoy!" . . . and also, if you've just given birth to a baby in an environment with limited child-care facilities, how about doing a bit of breast-feeding, maybe? Just an idea. So, yes, the film annoyed me. I couldn't take it seriously.
