American Gangster/Lions for Lambs/Peep Show/Planet Terror
In Tony’s absence, Alex, Paul and Tom discuss the things they’ve been watching in between marathon Guitar Hero III sessions.
First up is Ridley Scott’s compelling crime thriller about real life drug lord Frank Lucas and Detective Richie Roberts, the honest cop who pursued him, American Gangster. This has been compared with such greats as Heat, The French Connection and The Godfather. Check out how it measures up in the eyes of Paul and Tom.
Lions for Lambs is Robert Redford’s political drama investigating the many various viewpoints on the War on Terror. It stars Tom Cruise, Meryl Streep and Redford himself. See if it made us want to take action or take a snooze.
Also discussed is the fourth series of the excellent British comedy Peep Show, as well as the final sorry offering oozing forth belatedly from the damp squib formerly known as Grindhouse: Planet Terror.
Stay tuned at the end for a heavy metal treat from the band Strong Bad. We give you ‘TROGDOR’!
