[QUOTE="Saturlight, post: 242824, member: 233652"] Yeah, we all did this at school. We were given about five pages of text which we had to paragraph and keep the meaning of the original, to one single page. So I thought I'd have a bit of fun, and write some critiques of films, as short as possible, but by also retaining the meaning: THE GREAT ESCAPE: "World War Two prisoners make an elaborate escape attempt only for it to go sadly wrong." THE OMEN: "The son of the Devil is born into a wealthy and influencial family, who fail to combat his attempt to conquer the world." THE SHAM-SHACK REDEMPTION: "Bank manager escapes from jail after twenty years of mental, physical and sexual abuse." WOLF CREEK: "An Aussie nutter murders two girls, and evades capture." PLAN NINE FROM OUTER SPACE: "A plan nine to conquer the world goes wrong after eight previous attempts". :D BUTCH CASSIDY AND THE SUNDANCE KID: "Two cowboys rob banks and die at the end, shot to death by a firing squad of army volunteers." DRACULA: "A vampire reaks havoc on a Germany community only for himself to die at the end." CHICOLINA MEETS JOHN HOMLES: "Well endowed man has a seedy affair with a lusty, loose woman." ;) :D [/QUOTE]
