London bicycle cop, Baz, is knocked off his bike by a local thug and
suffers a head injury. The injury changes him and he starts a zero
tolerance campaign against criminals in his area. He takes his vigilante
plan to a new level by using his police helmet-cam to record the death
sentences he passes and then anonymously uploads them to the internet. He
also has his own twitter account so people can follow his work. He has a
strict code and will only kill criminals who have told him that they
don't deserve to live (although, they aren't necessarily aware that
they've actually said that). His life is made more difficult by his
abusive, alcoholic mother with whom he lives and isn't helped by Val, his
Police partner, who is getting too close.
The British black comedy is quite good, although the humour is very
uneven. It is presented in an interesting way with twitter feeds and text
chats appearing on the screen at relevant times, but they are never
intrusive. The technology aspect explains the films off-putting title.
Overall, definitely worth a look.

than in the past, but we all put "ing" to make a gerund instead of putting a
"y" in front of the verb. Thanks to some college courses, I used to dream in
Elizabethan. We do NOT want to go back to that.
Try reading Chaucer in Middle English and then bitch about how language
changes.
Do you understand what people are trying to say? Then they've done their job
communicating.

I used to be a bit of a language Luddite, she has largely cured me of
this. As Lesmond points out, language is a living thing, always
evolving. Splitting infinitives, for instance, used to be verbotten, but
these days, it is no longer so. I still avoid it, but technically, it is
no longer wrong. When my wife worked at CNN, she had to write news
stories in conversational English. If you follow the formal, old-school
rules, you wind up with sentences that are overly long and hard to
follow. Sometimes, it's easier to end a sentence with a preposition that
to jump through the hoops needed to avoid that.

writing, even in informal places like here and Facefuck, tends to be
mostly grammatically correct (except when I'm trying for irony of
colloquialisms). I know the rules and break them only when I am going
for a particular effect.
And then there's Bod. (That reminds me of a theme song. Ten points to
the person who names it.)

Personally I love playing with language, and love writers like Joss
Whedon who invent new phrases, words, and syntax, as he used to do
with BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER (the series).

Been there done that. You didn't find it fun?

I'm happy that people are communicating but even something as simple as
titling a film should show more thought than is on display in this
particular instance, hence my dislike of the title.
Just 'cos all the kids are saying "cray cray" instead of "crazy" and
"random" for I-don't-know-what-it-means-but-it-doesn't-mean-random
doesn't make it elegant or pleasant for me to experience. In short, I
feel that I should be allowed my own likes and dislikes regardless of
what the word of the now happens to be.

Some of us do have fun on Facebook. We all have friends who post stupid
pictures of their kids, but there is also AH type shenanigans - I've
