movie review - Ten Things I Hate About You

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-seven years and one million words

Sydney, 2000.09.02

Incredibly, no less an author than William Shakespeare is given writing credits for this - they think this was Taming of the Shrew!

It's a teen flick, and a reasonably amusing one, but it's still a teen flick, for Christ's sake!

Not recommended.

rand()m quote

On the endless saga of Rob Ford, mayor of Toronto; "It shouldn't have had to come to this. I'm so tired of getting up every morning and wondering, 'What will it be today?' I'm so tired of giving the benefit of the doubt again and again, only to be let down again and again.... Somewhere a responsible adult has to appear, draw a bright moral line, tell the truth and say unequivocally what won't be tolerated. Somebody has to do the right thing."
