Good bits:
The cast - McGregor, Kidman, Leguizamo and Broadbent are all fantastic
The visuals - aargh, my eyes are burning (still)
The songs - Nirvana, Queen, Bowie etc.
The director
Nicole Kidman's ta-ta's
Bad bits:
Liking it when it's clearly a girl's film
Watching it with someone who's seen it before
Someone kicked my chair, twice
Overall, I liked it, but that doesn't make me a girl.

Here is why I hate him:
1) Baz is a stupid name. Wasn't there a woman on casualty called Baz?
2) Strictly Ballroom. A film about ballroom dancing, starring Aussies.
3) Romeo and Juliet. What a sucky version. I really didn't think Baz's vision of this was worth watching.
4) Sunscreen. Stupid preachy nonsense pop song. My mother-in-Law liked it - that shows how absolutely terrible it was. I hate that kind of crap, trying to tell people how they should think and feel, it was crap.
5) The start of the trailer to Moulin Rouge features a fatman's big face with a 'tache, and it reminded me of the naffness of Romeo and Juliet.
So I definitely shalln't be going to see this.
> I'm gay, because you are Scottish
Nice to see you agree with me. Only joking. Anyway, the film.
> Rome and Juliet was one of the best films ever. No debate.
I didn't think it was. It was the way it was 'modernised' with guns and the like. I didn't think it worked. I prefer the original.
I don't like the way Baz makes the characters look, or act.
