10 Most Hilarious Mark Kermode Rants

2. Sex And The City 2

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uHeQeHstrsc Here it is. The legendary rant. How long did it take Mark to get from 'you're not going to get a rant about this' to a full rendition of the Internationale, including full-blown desk punching? Less than seven minutes. For many fans of the show, the title of 'best Kermodian rant' can be whittled down to Sex and the City 2 and Pirates of the Caribbean 3. In the case of the former, it's easy to see why. Kermode finds self-restraint futile when it comes to addressing the rampant consumerism in Sex and the City 2; a topic that sees those big hands become decidedly flappier. After criticising its grotesque portrayal of women, he labels the project as 'consumerist pornography.' As he lists the 'hardships' in the lives of these ultra-rich women he is staggered by their greed and inability to empathise with the people they meet. The review culminates with Mark yelling that the characters are 'imperialist American pig-dogs of the highest order.'

I have one golden rule: There is no such thing as a guilty pleasure. Any song or film that makes you feel good doesn't need justifying.
