I saw Jarhead and ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
ritergirl tonight I was all prepared to write about them, maybe make a nekkid!Jake spam and an Alan Tudyk spam for ritergirl and I discover that you're all being slack.
Jarhead was really well acted, written and directed, but the thing about Jarhead is that it achieves its aims too well. The aim of the movie is to show how boring, frustrating and ultimately fruitless the first Gulf war was. The film has the effect of leaving you bored and frustrated, which is not the best thing to be when watching a movie.
Still, the stuff of the oil falling from the sky and the bombs dropping around Jake is fantastic and Jake himself gets naked a lot and is beautiful. Peter Sarsgaard is great, of course, and Jamie Foxx is terrific too.
Jarhead: 7 out of 10.
Do the Talent Meme and SPAM ME and then you get your pretty boys.
C'mon, I'm BRIBING here.
ETA: If anyone's going to the Creation event that I just discovered Naveen is going to and would like to work out something you could do for me for the site, please email me at green_queen_jp@hotmail.com. I will reimburse if there is money involved. PLEASE!
