Running movie commentary

[kyrasantae]

"Laitakaupungin Valot" is such a deviation from any of the other 4 Aki Kaurismäki movies I've seen, that I just *had* to do a running commentary on my MSN subnick. It also wasn't as...funny. I was kinda disappointed but amused.

• *cue requisite "guy gets beat up by drunk guys" part*
  
• hmm I swear I've seen that set before in another movie...
  
• Rejected!! Spies do not belong in a serious art film
  
• If you pass out after drinking coffee, you've clearly been drugged
  
• Stupidest heist ever
  
• That's a kinda long and convoluted way to set someone up to be fired
  
• Dude, that's NOT how you frame someone for the crime
  
• Way to kick someone while they're down
  
• *cue dark and stormy night*
  
• This entire movie is about how to make a miserable person's life even MORE miserable.
  
• Meanwhile back at the gang headquarters...
  
• Prison break...ish!
  
• Loser is as loser does
  
• Don't leave your food unattended at a homeless shelter
  
• You! What are YOU doing here!?
  
• Only emos are allowed to cut themselves
  
• I'm going to KEEEEEEEEL you!
  
• Requisite kick while he's down [after requisitely beating him up and leaving him by the docks]
  
• The brown kid speaking Finnish is amusing
