Isn’t Steven Soderbergh the busiest feller in the business!? The schedule he works at suggests he’s always got two films on the go at the same time. His last feature ‘Erin Brockovich’ came mere months after ‘Out of sight’ had been released and both were real winners, getting the critical plaudits, reaping in pretty nice receipts at the box office as well as jacking up the film careers of the principles.

If you saw ‘The Sixth Sense’ last year, you’ll know that finding out the twist to the film before you see it is a right pain in the arse. Not that it ruined the experience totally, because for all the fun that the twist is, it’s not really that integral to the whole plot - it’s just fantastic icing on the cake.

Vertical Porn. I mean it does it very well. It keeps you titillated, even shaking on the edge of your sweaty seat. But all of it, the script, the acting, the directing, is an obvious ploy, just like a porn flick, to give us sexy spectacle, with a capital SEXY.

They say it’ll win the Oscar for Best Foreign Film. They say it’s the first ever feminist martial arts film. They say a lot. Though they don’t tell you how to hide a dragon.

The slow pacing is a pain of course, although that didn’t hamper sci-fi uber-slogs like ‘2001’ and ‘Solaris’, but here it makes you start fidgeting with your Snickers wrapper.
