Rimsey

This was the first movie that I ever *remember* seeing. It stands out in my mind (and yes probably has clouded my viewing judgement for years) because it was the first film to ever feature the mode of moggy that has been my constant companion for over 25 years - The Abbysinian. An Abby was the perfect cat to play Zunar-J5/9-Doric-47 (or Jake for the non fanatics out there). Being three years old and the proud owner of one of the first Abbys in Australia - I remember for days after putting different collars on my very patient cat Tawney and begging him to talk to me. He obviously didn't, and it broke my little heart, but what he couldn't express verbally he more than made up for with his smooches and furry nudges. Ok the Film never won an Oscar, it was a Disney Kid flick, but as kid flicks go - it was all right. And lets face it - I can't be all bad, McLean Stevenson, Harry Morgan AND Roddy McDowell! Now if I could just find out who did the voice of Jake!

I have to admit I was interested to see what the Hulk would translate to on the big screen. With the success of X-Men and Spiderman from the Marvel stable I thought it would be a safe bet that The Hulk would be up to the same high standard.

I was sadly mistaken......

This is the first film in my living history that I can say was truly awful!

With the marketing frenzy of toys and Hulk gear, you would think that it was suitable for a young audience? No - nowhere near it. Parents be advised *DO NOT* if you value the sanity of your children take them to see this. There are images in there that will give them nightmares for a week.

For shame Ang Lee. Exploding Frogs and mutilated Dogs do not make good Childrens viewing!
