the bleedin Oscars
 

Has anyone seen the film Helen Mirren is being hyped as an oscar winner for best actress?..."the Queen"... I have and it was kak!....the whole film is wooden.. no action... the actors play along like its just some extra dosh b4 they get a real film to be in... I'll bet Helen Mirren can't belive she's up for an award for this crap.

I hope that this is the first film Ms. Mirren appears in without getting naked?:D

Funny, I saw "The Queen" film and came away with quite the opposite impression. Thought Mirren did a geat job. Instead of relying on special effects, they relied on (gasp!) acting!

If the Oscars were based on action, instead of acting, there would have been far fewer awards headed to performers from the UK over the years. A lot a great actors, to be sure, come from the UK. Very few of them are action heroes.

cant agree there mancie,think mirren is a excellant actress. and the queen dont exactly snort coke or owt.

Re: the bleedin Oscars
 

I'm saying the film gives the impression of being some sort of docu/real time movie.. not slagging off Helen Mirren for her performance but she has acted better in other films.. the film was crap!

Re: the bleedin Oscars
 

Isnt that the impression that its based on?? docu/real time?? it is after all supposed to be based on the aftermath of princess diana,s death and the royals huge cock ups......havent yet seen it but eagerly looking foward to seeing it..

Re: the bleedin Oscars
 

It's crap.. ...

Re: the bleedin Oscars
 

each to their own taste mancie ...lol!! will let you know when i watch it..

Re: the bleedin Oscars
 

I realy fancy seeing that film,,,,, I suppose it makes a difference if you like the monarchy or not,,,,

Great review, very informative.

You should apply for the job of art critic on the Daily Sport.

Re: the bleedin Oscars
 

I agree granny.... im no absolute fan of the royals but admired diana,s spirit so much and i personally thought that the royals lost soo much credibility after her death due to their ignorance /lack of acknowledgement towards her that it is interesting to see a tribute to how the queen coped with it ... even if it is only to lift public spirit towards the royals again..

Re: the bleedin Oscars
 

Don't get carried away cherokee.. I'm on about the film.. its crap!

Re: the bleedin Oscars
 

Wasnt getting carried away mancie although what i said does explain your interpretation of the film as a docu /real time ..

if its not your thing fair do,s you,ll not watch it again but for the many that havent seen it then its still up for debate..

Re: the bleedin Oscars
 

anything, with/about the Royals and the Yanks go all gaga , I just put it down to having a lack of history of their own
