The Beach on Film4 right now.

It's no masterpiece, definitely neither Leo nor Boyle's finest outing, but still...I don't think it deserves the hate it gets. Sure, there's no real story, some of it is creaky as fuck, but there are some fantastic sequences in it:

- Leo and Daffy sharing a joint in the hotel.
- When the Swedish guys get pwned by the shark.
- When Leo loses his mind in the jungle...
- ...leading to him setting up the interlopers' deaths.

Why does it get so much hate?
