Slagging off Paul Verhoeven

Apparently Paul Verhoeven has a new film. It's an intense drama about a woman in occupied Holland who is working with the resistance, and makes friends with a stamp collector. After Total Recall and Starship Troopers, I've always seen Verhoeven as someone to whom the term 'lowest common denominator' wouldn't apply, merely because his characters would never use a word like denominator. Jonathon Ross says I should probably change my mind, and give Black Book a try. I might, yet.

IMDB says "Rated R for some strong violence, graphic nudity, sexuality and language" - so it is true to form.
