Film shorts Jan/Feb

Yeah, science!

The rest of the films seen at the cinema in the last month.

Lone survivor
Marine unit fails to elicit ounce of sympathy for self-inflicted injury in this cringeworthy propaganda piece. Laughable.

Sideways & Nebraska (double bill)
Alexander Payne's duo of languorous treks through rural U.S. make me feel like I need some fine wine, and people need to be nicer. Recommended.

Gravity
Trailer-raised fears of 90 minutes of Bullock gasping unrealised. Charming and visually superlative. If Kowalski had paid attention in physics class they'd both still be alive. Unmissable.
