Just saw this in a festival. It gets my seal of approval also. Very strange distanced humor, but very effective, and the plot does not have a gram of fat on it. Very good movie. PS: Good thing I searched before posting!

Saw this the other day in a festival and it's being released across europe these days. Since it has been released in Mexico too, I guess it can be found by anyone interested. Marshland is a very very classic 'cops sent to the boonies end up investigating fucked up murders with more...

The tracking shot of season 1 could not be topped in its category, but the shootout in this latest episode is also extraordinary. I don't remember seeing such an epic train wreck. There are examples in movies and TV shows of police operations that go wrong, but usually that means cops deaths or...

To put things into perspective, if you change the outcome of a grand total of 3 points in the whole match, Federer wins in straight sets (set point in the first set, break point in the third, game point in the third), so making definitive conclusions based on a close match where both had...

The subject matter is very perilous and I doubt it will be handled with the care it deserves.

A few years back there was a guy in France who did something similar. That was not chemotherapy, it was urostomy (hole in the abdomen to redirect the urinary flow through it) and stoma bag (a bag to collect the urine that now exits constantly from your side)... I am not sure how reversible the...

I find it difficult to be that categorical. What happened today? 1st set: Federer was a break ahead thanks to a string of brilliant plays returning. He lost that lead immediately because he missed to many first serves and Djokovic played a brilliant passing shot. He had a couple set points on...

I wonder what was the death toll for that 2nd set breaker. I know it almost got me. These guys should be sponsored by pacemaker manufacturers...

It has nothing to do with being out of ideas and everything to do with predictability. It's very difficult to know how something new will fare, while market studies can give a pretty good idea of what kind of money a remake/reboot/sequel/franchise will do, so you can budget it accordingly. Also...

Well... I am the first to be disappointed but I was at a movie festival and I only saw the first 8 games of the Federer vs Murray match. On the up side I got to see the only break point Federer faced! The only thing I can say is that I am slightly worried that he peaked too early. He played...

A dirty photochop in more ways than one:

10,000 different creatures can seem like a lot or seem like very few. Let's say there are evenly split between air, ground and water, that they have 5 sizes, and have two dominant colors out of 10 shades. Suddenly, you have only 7 different creatures walking in the whole universe... I assume it...

The make of break factor in this game for me will be the range of their stuff generator. If it's too narrow, it will only provide shades of the same and will be boring quick. Let's hope it's so wide that you are constantly surprised by what's around the corner.

Getting the rackets is the easy part. The hard part to replicate Wimbledon is finding a grass court!

I think Khane's problem is with spoiling the end of Watchmen.

Notice the alligator vs anaconda fight on the painting on the wall! But yeah that scene was a bit lynchian, which is ok in a dream sequence, but weird here (since it stands out). Maybe the idea is to step into the strange when it comes to the russian mobster to give him a kind of "anything can...

DAY 9: Ladies quarter finals and end of Djokovic vs Anderson(see above) DAY 10: Gentlemen quarter finals(also the day I only saw a set and a half of Federer). DJOKOVICtoo solid forCilic. Straight sets victory. MURRAYtoo strong forPospisil. Straight sets victory. FEDERERtoo good...

What's the global balance of plus and minus? Is there a netflation?

Yeah he had been very clutch (I mean, winning a breaker against Djokovic when you are lead 4 love?), but today he missed some chances early in the fifth (most notably a forehand down the line that he put in the double's alley when it had absolutely no business being close to any line at all, as...

Maybe you wait 3 months because you know that it's very likely he destroyed everything he had when his pal got arrested, but you also know that if you wait a while, he will gather some new stuff... That or it took a couple months to go through the pile of evidence they got from the first guy.

The sympathy here did not only come because of the context, it also came because it was a freak accident while doing the right thing. Missing the target with a penalty kick is only a source of compassion when it is in a shoot-out and the guy played a great match.

DAY 7: No tennis. DAY 8: Gentlemen's Single 4th round. DJOKOVICfaced as super aggressive Anderson that proved a lot more clutch than usual. In the first set breaker, it's the World N?1 who blinked with an untimely double fault and in the second set breaker, Anderson managed to recover from...

Nice necro... I at least hoped for an air date or something... For info: they started shooting season 2 in February and it is supposed to air in the 4th quarter of 2015.

DAY 6: bottom half of the draw, third round FEDERERNever faced a break point against heavy serving australianGroth. He dropped a set though, thanks to a double fault in a breaker. MURRAYwon 2, 2 and 1 againstSeppi. Well... He also dropped the third set 6-1. Don't ask me what happened there...

DAY 5: Top half, 3rd round. DjokovicbeatTomicin straight sets. Wawrinkadid the same thanks to a very anti-clutch performance byVerdascowho played a terrible game at the end of each set. Wawrinka was very impressive on serve. SEEDICIDE WATCH:Gasquet[21] made light work of an...

It's very difficult to really understand what's up with Nadal. I think it's a combination of factors. - He said in interviews a few years back that he enjoyed being the hunter a lot more than being the prey, so he really did not enjoy much being World N?1 and feeling like he had a target on...

Rolling on the laugh flooring?

I guess the fact I have seen Vaughn in about as many drama as comedies allows me to not see him through tinted lenses. I am not enamored with his character, but I have no problem with Vaughn's cold, almost wooden delivery for him. He is not supposed to play some sort of super charismatic gang...

DAY 4: bottom half of the draw, second round FEDERERhad a tricky draw with an in form and grass proficientQuerreyin the second round. The american came out swinging. Serving well, hitting powerful ground strokes from both wings, even landing some volley winners for good measure! Federer was...

I watched nothing of the women world cup, but today I check a bit of the Japan vs England semi and get to see one of the most heart wrenching own goal I ever saw. A freak accident in stoppage time of a world cup semi final that was going into overtime... that's hard to top (unless you are...

DAY3: top half of the draw, second round. DJOKOVIC, as expected, beatNieminenin straight sets in a match I did not see. The stats give the image of an offensive and efficient Djokovic (30 times at the net, superb winners/unforced errors ratio). WAWRINKAwas made to work a tad harder...

DAY 2: bottom half of the draw, first round FEDERER: 1h08 to beatDzumhurin straight sets, dropping just the 7 games. Fed Express indeed (probably inspired byKvitovathat just before won 6-1 6-0 in 35 minutes!). The first serve percentage was a bit on the low side though...

What constitutes an original in this case? All those that were done using the original molds? Only the first batches that were probably documented and numbered?

The lucky loser who took Ferrer's spot is Vanni, a 30 year old italian journeyman who is a late bloomer as he is enjoying his best season ever in 2015, so I let you the judge of the freshness of his blood! DAY1: top half of the draw, first round. DJOKOVICplayed a so-so match, twice unable...

I suddenly remembered another '80s movie I enjoyed when I was a teenager that has yet to be mentioned: Innerspace.

This should die down in a couple of episodes. By then the season will have become its own thing, with its own tone and pace and we'll have a better grasp of the storylines and characters.

Ferrer has a problem with his elbow and will not play. He was in the Nadal section of the draw and could have faced Murray in quarter final. With all the respect I have for Ferrer's grit and work ethic, I don't think his absence will have much of an impact on the tournament. It does make things...
