After watching The Killer am I to assume that Fincher is a fan of The Smiths? Too much...
Yes.
Ridiculously so. At best I like one of their songs.
Also…..
His repetitive monologues got ridiculous. Some reasonably good tension, one of the best fight scenes in a movie for years……..and Fassbender was ruthless and cool but overall not the best flick I’ve seen -

Agreed, I think they’re a shithouse band all up.

Not my thing. In fact, I don't think there is a big Manchester band I do like.

The “Manchester” sound is a scourge on music.
Absolutely awful all round.
Every single band I’ve heard is fronted by some nasally sounding fuckwit over jingly jangly chords and boring rhythms.

Step Brothers
In terms of dumb entertainment that’s actually really funny it’s tough to beat this.
Will Ferrall can be pretty hit or miss but he’s terrific in this and John C Reilly matches him every step of the way.
Not quite sure why this flick works but it does, genuine LOL moments.
Slightly disconcerting that I’m quite a bit older than these guys now considering I thought of them as middle aged when I first saw this.
3.5 Catalina Wine Cruisers out of 5 drum kits that you’re not allowed to touch
I'm not typically a Farrell fan - and actually avoided this movie for many years because of him.
But when I did watch it - yeah, good.
Possibly my favourite Farrell moments are actually from Eastbound & Down - the blooper reels. Farrell, McBride, and Craig Robinson - all ad-hoc-ing and straight-facing ...
And recently, in my declining years - have revisited several of the Farrell vehicles... possibly a testimony to my ongoing genocide on braincells - but it's good light entertainment these days.Edit: - searching for "Step Brothers" on the old raging-rivers these days is fucking rife with peril. What an age we live in.
