Watched Lemony Snicket’s A Series of Unfortunate Events last night, now this is an amazing film, my next most favourite film this year after Big Fish. The fantasy story telling element was impressive it even felt like a Tim Burton film in places. Jim Carrey was great playing the evil Count Olaf, probably one of his better roles. The other suppporting actors included Billy Connelly and Meryl Streep who both did a good job.
The leads played by Emily Browning and Liam Aitkin were brilliant. I think these two are leagues ahead of other child actors on the scene. I think they walk all over the Potter Pack, I think we will be seeing more of these young actors in the future. The star in my opinion was the youngest of the three children, Sunny a toddler whose lines are subtitled into the film cleverly. I think she had some of the best gags.
This is a must see! Go now and watch it.
On another note this was my first cinema trip after my treatment, it was absolutely amazing. We went to the Kensington Odeon, which was showing it on Screen 1, the massive screen, even though only about 20 people were there for the late showing. I didn’t have to deal with silly reflections of my glasses.
