The Man From U.N.C.L.E.
@interiorlulu
Mr. Mojo and I watched The Man From U.N.C.L.E. movie last week (it’s only $4 on VUDU), mostly because I’d seen smatterings of fanfic for it over on AO3 and wanted to check it out and DAMN was it a surprise!
It’s got a pretty terrible rating (67% on Rotten Tomatoes), but we loved every minute of it! It’s directed by Guy Ritchie (who did the RDJ Sherlock Holmes) and stars Henry Cavill (from Superman) so there was plenty of eye candy (the Illya actor is very pretty, too, and also 6′5″ to feed my height kink). The gorgeous and confident ladies in it kicked ass on many levels, the men were great (and also pretty) it had one of the most unique car chase sequences I’ve ever seen, the whole film was a visual feast (have you seen Delicatessen? It reminded me of that in that every scene was just a stunning and artful composition, I mean, the International jet-set 1960′s scene was pretty colorful.) The plot was roundly satisfying.
Yeah. I loved it. And now I get to read some fics! (Here are some of my recs from my AO3 bookmarks.) Does anyone have more recs for me? Put it in the comments....
