I’m all for bands finding a sound that works for them and sticking with it, but when every song on an entire album sounds exactly the same, you know they’ve taken it too far. That’s the problem with ‘Partie Traumatic’. I bought this album because I’d seen the potential in “I’m Not Gonna Teach Your Boyfriend How to Dance with You”. But aside from that track and “Hurricane Jane”, this really could have been a singles disc of remixes. If you want something like this, but better, you could do a lot worse than ‘Perfect Distraction’ by Something With Numbers.
I know I’m supposed to take some deep youth-is-wasted-on-the-young message out of this movie, but all I’m seeing is a three hour biopic about a guy born with a bad skin condition who gets better as he ages. If I want to watch ‘The Elephant Man’ or ‘Forrest Gump’, I’ll watch the movies themselves, not this mash-up. Also, there was no need to tell the story in flash-back, and the Hurricane Katrina tie-in attempted to pull heart-strings that should have been left to be handled by the script. The 1.5 stars I’ve given are for the make-up and GC teams.
If I’ve paid for a service and something goes wrong, the last thing I want is for the service provider to ignore the problem and insist that everything is fine. Even if they can’t do anything to fix it, you’d expect an apology for unmet expectations. Our stay at the Rydges had lots of little problems: pre-booked carpark unavailable, in-room toiletries were half used, etc. The issues weren’t particularly concerning, it was the indifference of the staff and their attitude in making you feel like it was your fault that things had gone wrong. The positive side – a good restaurant.
