FUN CANCER AND CONVERSATIONALISTS (One Week and Pontypool)
Just a quick note to say if you're not up for Giant Naked Blue Men there's a number of other good movies in theatres.
I already raved about Pontypool. It's open now. Cerebral horror flick. The best kind.
Also in theatres is One Week staring Joshua Jackson. I wanted to mention this, because the movie is fighting an uphill battle.
Yes, it's a movie about a guy with terminal cancer. Yes he gets on his motorbike and rides West, across Canada.
But here's the thing...
It's good.
Wry, surprising and not as sentimental as you think.
Josh does a nice job and the narration by Campbell Scott is really what sells it.
Give it a second chance, i think you'll be surprised.
