Did anyone else just hear the Radio One review of Hidalgo? Razzle?

I couldn't help laughing.

In summary: "This film is boring and I didn't get it. Viggo Mortensen takes himself too seriously and he is boring"

And a direct quote "it's too long for a film where you don't fall in love with the main character".

Yeah I heard

*hmmpf*! What does James King know anyway?

[aleathiel.livejournal.com]

I thought it was quite amusing. I disagree with him so often on films it's almost a reassurance that he didn't like it!

Who is this James King person? *fumes*

Can I throw rotten eggs at him? ;P

[aleathiel.livejournal.com]

Yes, I think that's a great idea! He's the film review person on BBC Radio One. He, um, has a very different taste in films than me.

Eh????

[aleathiel.livejournal.com]

Well exactly. He clearly doesn't know what he's talking about :P

SO annoying.
I was sat there screaming
"I'm already in love with the main character, and I haven't even seen the bloody thing yet!"
James King talks shite anyway. He never likes anyhting good and once referred to Johnny's character as Captain Jack Black.
Fucking genius.
*FUMES*
How can my Viggo be so misunderstood?

"I'm already in love with the main character, and I haven't even seen the bloody thing yet!"
Nah, I'm in love with the man who plays him.

James King talks shite anyway
Yup. Like I said to Londinesa, it's kinda reassuring that he didn't like it actually!

I've seen the film twice, and while it is not my favorite film, and was a bit slow at times, I didn't think it was boring (and neither was Viggo). And that crap about not falling in love with the main character? Whatever....

[aleathiel.livejournal.com]

I've not seen it yet so will reserve judgement. But hey, even if I don't like the film much I know I'll like the man!

I thought Viggo himself said that the main character of the movie was the horse, not him. This James King sounds like a jealous nincompoop.

[aleathiel.livejournal.com]

I'm not surprised Viggo thinks TJ is the star. That sounds exactly like him.

This James King sounds like a jealous nincompoop. Yeah, just a bit!

Heee...can't really comment cos the movie is not yet released here.

But then, I prolly won't see the movie if Viggo is not in it.
