Layer Cake

Just saw the movie Layer Cake – it’s a British gangster film, sort of like Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels and Snatch (I mention those simply because Guy Ritchie was originally slated to direct), but a bit more serious – less obviously funny, and a lot more tense. I really, really enjoyed it, and am actually interested in seeing Daniel Craig as James Bond, now, where I had no interest before. If he brings any of the intensity he brought to this, it’ll be quite interesting to watch, and it’ll put Bond in a totally new place on the map.

    The problem with the last few Bond movies is that they’ve lost focus. They’re no longer spy flicks, but over the top action flicks. Hopefully, with Daniel Craig, they’ll move to something more like The Born Identity.

    Seppo, you mean L4YER CAK3, right? *snerk*

    I still get why it’s written like that. There was no l337 to be found anywhere else in the movie.

    Also, having Dumbledore in the movie was strange.
