F&F3 was not my choice my sister has desperatly wanted to see it since she saw the trailer at the cinema. I think she wanted to compare the male lead guy to Paul Walker of the first two films. She was dissapointed. I gotta say it's a good piece of escapism but i would not probly ever see it again. It doesnt seem that special to me that someone can drift we get it everyday where we live. So i cant really say i liked this flick not being a car nut i cant really tell if it was acurate or not but i dont think it really matters with this piece of pulp.
Thank You For Smoking was actually an interesting film it centers around Aaron Eckhart's charachter Nick Naylor who is a Vice President for the tobbacco institute a site where they investigate the effects of nicotine for the big tobbacco companies of course they never find any links. He tries to get his son's respect when he decides that he isn't bonding with his son he takes him on a journey where his son will learn the fine art of spin. Meanwhile a Virginia senator played by William H. Macy is trying to put a large poison logo on front of all packets of cigaretts So Nick gets called into this hearing on the subjectIt's an interesting insight into the tobbacco industry. There is so much more in this movie like the M.O.D (Merchants Of Death) Squad which comprises of the Alcohol lobbyist, the Gun lobbyist and Nick the Tobbacco lobbyist.
I have to say there are some very subversive things in this movie i dont think it had a particualrly good run at the cinema but i reckon it could be a big hit on DVD.
As you can tell i thought a lot more of Thank You For Smoking and F&F 3.
