Velvet Goldmine
on DVD
(1998)
Starring: Ewan McGregor, Toni Collette, Eddie Izzard
Director: Todd Haynes
Certificate: 
this review is for people who find an actor they like (eg Christian Bale) and then look into their back catalogue of movies to see if they have any 'before they made it big time' Gems. I am one of such people, so when i found out Bale had made a movie with Ewan McGreggor and Eddie Izzard (to name only the biggest names) i was like 'yeah i will rent that' when the disc turned up i got some beers in, a few of the lads over and a pizza with the works. we sat down to watch the movie and in the first 15-20 mins there is a full frontal of McGreggor. Now, we decided to soldier on and give it another chance, how ever things got worse! With more and more same side of the road action, with very little boob to compensate. In short this is a weak movie with an entirely sub standard plot, unsatisfactory conclusion. the type of movie you are forced to watch with the girlfriend (who will love it). i cant belive they got so many big names for this film. This movie is what we call in the industry, really Really REALLY gay
