21 and counting

Another Tuesday, another movie. This is that Vegas blockbuster (snort) 21!

The best thing about this movie isn't the plotline. To be honest, the trailer gives that away and all that's left to uncover are minor details and expected character touches of the two leads shagging as they must in any flick.

No, the best part are the two real leads of the picture: Kevin Spacey and Lawrence Fishburne. Yeah, sure Jim Sturgess (aka 'the guy who reminds you of Tobey Maguire') and Kate Bosworth are in it, but they're just there to fill up screen time until the big names come on. Kevin Spacey is a wonderful actor, and can exude a creepy menace without even trying (as he does in almost every scene he's in). As for Lawrence Fishburne... I think this wee scene sums up how we all feel.

21 isn't going to rate the best movie ever, but it's a decent flick and worth checking out if you like that genre.
