Re: New Movie: Two Hands [moving OT]

[Michael Kurkowski <mk@netstra.com.au>]

Hi,

I went and saw Two Hands today. It wasn't so much the swearing that 
bothered me, i think it was more the overuse of the stereotypical 
Australian slang that did bother me.

On a side note, I also saw "What Becomes Of the Broken Hearted" today, and 
this has a number of rail scenes in it. One of them being of an ex-WA DMU 
powering up the line for a few seconds. Many scenes were also in a disused 
guards van, within a yard full of disused stock. 

I am not really a fan of violent films (and i am heading off topic here) 
but i do recommend this film to anyone. If anyone saw "Once were warriors" 
this is the sequel. The only downfall in this film, was right at the start, 
a gang bang (the fist type) looked too pretend, when one guy was punching 
the lights out of another, it looked more like he was pulling fishing line 
out of water.

Regards
Michael.
