Burn after reading.

It might well be that one
I like pretty much everything the Coen brothers have done, even the stuff that gets below-average reviews like The Ladykillers. However saw No country for old men recently and just could not get into it. So maybe maybe.

depends on what you want
Mr Hulot's Holiday is a masterclass in slapstick...

That's what I'd imagine that film to be like
Could be a bit boring though.

It makes me laugh like a mong
perhaps I am a mong...

Not really
That's the surprising thing about it. Tati was inventive enough when making it that it doesn't get boring.

I think the closest thing in English film would be a silent version of a Norman Wisdom film.

Bollocks missed them all
That does sound good. Didn't know it was Tati.

Went to the pub and.. stayed at the pub.

You didn't know it was Tati?
I thought it was his most famous film!

I only remember him
from university lectures with snippets of film (Modern Languages undergrad).

His stuff was fucking awesome though, as I remember.

Rowan Atkinson ripped him off wholesale

Hitchhiker's guide has Zoey Deschanel in it
that makes it worth watching

Seconded
She sounds a bit of an idiot in real life, but she's totally beautiful and moves like an angel. Had a crush on her for quite a while. Just my type, looks-wise, and I don't usually fancy schlebs.

I've seen it before though. Decisions, decisions. I'm off out to see some dodgy covers band now. Will decide when I get back.

She's gorgeous
500 Days of Summer was as bearable a rom-com as you'll get

I saw How To Lose Friends...
...at a test audience screening my mate had tickets to. My review on the questionnaire they gave us went:

"I would pay good money to watch Simon Pegg read the phone book but even I have to draw the line somewhere."

It was funny in parts but overall I was very unimpressed.

Yeah
That was lowest on my mental list of possible choices. It got the worst reviews from the people who matter. Simon Pegg's done a few dodgy movies in my opinion.
