*** OSS 117: Cairo, Nest of Spies
*** Dark City

Kind of a slow month for movies. OSS 117 wasn’t at all what I expected — a lot more slapstick and silly than the sort of cool spy parody I was expecting. It was pretty funny in places, not great. E found it uninteresting.

Dark City was about as I remembered — interesting and with lots of good bits but on a grander scale kind of silly. As I so often say in my reviews, the setup and the first hour of running around and figuring out what was going on was pretty good, but the working out of the plot kind of meh. And good ol pre-24 Kiefer Sutherland with his various overacted tics was just sort of odd.
