100% agreed. The freedom speech that Mel Gibson gives his to his countryman to stand up and fight was amazing. It still gives me goosebumps every time I see it.

the amount of planning, money and expertise required to actually do it in real life would be so prohibitively high it wouldn't be worth attempting

plus you'd most likely get killed too...

i totally agree with you...gibson was excellent in this role, one of his best performances.

however, it's a little frustrating/annoying that a scottish actor couldn't be cast in the part...

suppose it's just national pride or something

no offence to the aussie members meant either...

:ph34r: "Forrest Gump". Definately a movie that motivates. You can do anything you want and you will succeed if you just put your mind to it. It's just a great movie.

HUMAN TRAFFIC

http://www.blackstar.co.uk/img/video/cover/front-sorted/7000000/05/37/05.jpg

[FONT=Arial][SIZE=1][SIZE=7]
brilliant film,

great script
great cast
great acting
great sound track

the film is just an on screen version of the average british week end.....

Human Traffic is a film about contemporary youth culture, or in other words, kids, clubs, sex and drugs. We might as well be honest about it - director Justin Kerrigan is.

His story, set in Cardiff, documents a weekend in the lives of six friends, exploring the fantasies and anxieties of their everyday lives as they escape into a world of music and drugs, cramming as much pleasure into their leisure time as they can.

The fact that these young people use illegal drugs to attain that pleasure will doubtless bring forth accusations of glorification from middle England, and they wouldn't be wholly unjustified as Kerrigan's characters are undeniably charming and appealing. These are not the punctured heroin-scum living out their hellish existence at the edges of society; these kids are society. Take a look at Moff (Danny Dyer), the jobless, drug-dealing son of a policeman, or LuLu (Lorraine Pilkington) a confident, beautiful student, dubbed the ultimate club minx. Her best friend is Jip (John Simm), a bright spark in a dull job, sexually insecure but still cool enough to blag his way into the best club night around. Using comedy and above all, honesty, Kerrigan accurately captures the essence of 90s club culture with Pete Tong's soundtrack of selected club classics driving the euphoric mood to its peak. The director skillfully depicts the reality that many are unwilling to face - even nice kids do drugs these days, and they have a great time, despite the dangers.

To concentrate solely upon the drugs issue however, would be to do a great injustice to this talented new director. He alternates deftly between fantasy and pseudo-documentary styles in order to portray the developing relationships between his malcontented characters, who are made all the more charismatic by a spot-on cast. Even if you don't like what they do, you can't help but like them. Moff is possibly the most loveable muppet of a drug dealer ever to have hit the screen.

Kerrigan's originality and talent for comedy should ensure that Human Traffic appeals to a far wider audience than clubbers alone. Anyone who's ever hated their boss will surely appreciate Kerrigan's grotesque caricatures of overbearing employers, especially the lard-oozing burger bar pest, and even if the cameos by dance/drug icons pass you by, there's still plenty here to enjoy.
