Does anyone in your daily life really listen to what you have to say? Sometimes your family, sometimes your friends, sometimes your co-workers. But there are times when you just want to shake somebody and say listen, I’m talking and it is important. Jenna Rink (Jennifer Garner) goes through her day as a thirteen-year-old in a 30-year-old body but it takes a tween neighbour that Jenna meets in the elevator to suss out that she isn’t what she seems to be.

You want to change your life. You find yourself stuck in the one you’re living now and you see that there is something better available to you. But your partner is happy with the way things are and any change to the stability is seen as a threat. You know that walking away will only bring pain and violence. You’ve tried it and all you got were broken bones and bruises which you tell friends came from an accident. How do you make a stand and not get hurt? The authorities won’t listen, the judicial system hasn’t got much but paper remedies. How do you plan a getaway? For Kat (Milla Jovovich) it starts with friends Vic (Sarah Strange) and Liz (Aisha Taylor) who provide the moral support in Kat’s struggle to slip away from her drug-dealing boyfriend Big Al (Angus Macfadyen). There is even an offer to take up a collection to get him whacked.

I’m a consumer. I like shopping for stuff. I like reading about stuff that’s coming (and wish it were here now for me to buy). I like to follow the evolution of stuff as it comes to market and see how the roll out of new stuff is accepted. I’ve got lots of stuff that never got that public acceptance it should have received. It sits right next to the stuff that did that is often replaced by the next gen stuff. I guess I’m the poster boy for consumerism. So this movie was a blow to my mad subconscious that regulates my buy, buy, buy fever. It shows a world where there won’t be any new books, movies, CDs and all manner of other toys that keeps me distracted from the real problems our world faces. And then Selena (Naomie Harris) has the gall to tell Jim (Cillian Murphy) essentially the same thing. I was bummed for a time until a buddy called to tell me what he discovered in his latest foray into the shops and I remembered this is just a movie.

What would you sacrifice to save the life of a loved one? An arm? Your house? A neighbour? Yourself? That is the choice Sheriff Eben Oleson (Josh Hartnett) feels he must make to save his brother Jake (Mark Rendall) and his wife Stella (Melissa George) and two friends from a marauding band of vampires that move around like they’re on meth. The band appears to be intent on wiping out the town and they are not fussy about how they rip and tear folks to pieces. Any survivors are holed up in buildings hoping to eke out their lives until the 30 days pass and sunrise comes again to their Alaskan town. When the vamps fire up the town, Eben knows he has only one choice to provide the others with a chance to tell those returning from the south that it wasn’t an accident or natural disaster that burned the town to the snowline. But it isn’t a choice that has an upside. I don’t know if I’d have that kind of courage. I’d like to think I do but I wouldn’t want to test my mettle until faced with having to actually do it.

It took only three things to like this movie. One was the version of Cheap Trick’s I Want You To Want Me by Letters to Cleo with the band playing on the roof. I don’t know how they got them up there but it was inspired. Please don’t tell me it was CGI. I like the idea of someone humping all that gear up there. Number two was the attempt to look cool riding away on his scooter by Michael Eckman (David Krumholtz). Unfortunately a car blocks his path and forces him off the cliff overlooking the football stadium, giving him the ride of his life. The last was Katarina ‘Kat’ Stratford (Julia Stiles) disdain for the attempts by Ms. Perky (Allison Janney) to get her to play a bigger role in high school activities.
