Over the course of the past two or three evenings, I’ve tried to watch one of the films we’ve had on rental from LoveFilm: George Clooney’s directorial debut Confessions of a Dangerous Mind. Occasionally I do have to watch movies in two sittings, just considering of tiredness, or not getting to sit down early abundant in the evening to finish one. Of course, though, ideally I’d rather not do it.

But oh, two sittings was not adequate. It put me to sleep twice by two nights that movie. And … and that is so not like me

- I watched The Cave, remember? … I have had to confess defeat. I just couldn’t bring myself to watch another minute of it.

Yes, it had good bits, and yes it had good actors acting well. But I just couldn’t watch it, and I don’t really know why. I just found it unwatchable. I find nearly no films unwatchable. Like I say, it’s not that it was poor, per se; just bloody boring, I suppose.

I give (what I saw of) that film 19 out of 100.
