yeah yeah everything comes to Japan years after it came to and already got forgotten by the rest of civilized world (except for Australia ;)

So I've been to the latest (and the last, it seems) Rambo today.

The movie is very-very good. To the point where I sort of didn't understand it was over when it was over - "huh? this can't be the end, right? we're only about 20 minutes into the movie!". Absolutely great action, Stallone looks fantastic in his sixties (definitely tons deadlier comparing to the earlier Rambos). The only weak thing about the movie is that it's too shirt :)

Oh.. and it was a really good idea I left my wife at home ;) The movie is definitely not targeted at the "weak sex" :)

A couple of my-workers has been to preview of Miyazaki Hayao's new anime - Geto Senki (English version: Tales of Earthsea) and it looks like the movie is not as good as everyone expected. The story is shallow and the plot is weak and there seemed to be no real (believable) solutions to any of the problems which are brought up in the movie. Also, it looks like other people around the country who had a chance to watch the movie didn't like it at all and mostly have the same experinces as my co-workers.

Talking about Miyazaki Hayao's animes, the Geto Senki is not exactly his own movie but rather a movie by his son which he seems to have been patronizing and supporting, but didn't seem to do any actual direction. So that seems just the son is not as talented as the  father.  

I have not seen the movie myself yet, and I guess I will not, until it is out on DVD. And doh.. that just sucks because I was really looking forward to watching the movie.

Update : it's not Geto Seiki (seiki = genitals) :D it's geto senki!! aaaalright :)
