28 Weeks Later anti-American? That makes no sense whatsoever. Anyway, the director and co-writer has outright said in interviews that it wasn't intended to be political commentary.
I groaned at the mention of Jim McBride's 'Breathless', but then when he mentioned that had more to say on the silver surfer than 'FF2', it was a horrifying moment of realising, he's right.
The good Doctor is a filmschool reviewer who can still find crappy films enjoyable if they're done with a sparkle in the eye (Mamma Mia!). Horrible films deserves to be burnt on the stake and he does it so well. Try to prove his point wrong from the perspective of a filmcritic and if you fail it's because he's right. Many blockbusters are NOT great movies (Transmorphisosis Spectaculiaris Faecesicus 2) because they make a lot of money. That's not the foundation of what makes a really good film.
I saw the Silver Surfer first and enjoyed it and when I saw the first one I was expecting it to be bad, but I enjoyed that to they're both nice family films. Although I don't get why they would do the Silver Surfer when they knew they couldn't expand it because there was going to be its own film. Though I think FF4 as a tv series might ahve worked better.
Silver Surfer is the puppet of Galactus whom wasn't even featured in the movie

Why the hell is Kermode complaining about mild language? Pissing down? Who gives a fuck!

People who don't want their kids subjected to bad language? I would have thought that's pretty obvious.

@BigBoss7777777 I do agree with what he said about Ron Weasley saying "bloody hell' all the time in the latter Harry Potter, it was unnecessary.

In the HP books, there is just as much cursing as there is in the movies.

Who's the douchebag reading Kermode the news, because he needs to shut up and just let Kermode talk.
