Notts County beaten for the first time at home since August as Barrow secure 3-0 win
Two goals in three minutes left Magpies with too much to do
by Leigh CurtisNotts County suffered their first home defeat since August as Barrow secured a convincing 3-0 win at Meadow Lane.
The Magpies got off to a poor start falling behind after just 10 minutes as they found themselves a goal down for the third consecutive game.
It was a well worked move as Patrick Brough's incisive pass from full-back made its way through to Josh Kay who cut the ball back for Dior Angus who slid the ball under Sam Slocombe.
Before Notts could even regain their senses, they found themselves two down just three minutes later when an underhit back pass from Enzio Boldewijn was pounced on by Dior Angus.
The striker still had much to do but kept his composure to pick out John Rooney who converted at the near post.
Notts tried to engineer a fight back as Boldewijn saw a shot blocked while Wes Thomas couldn't convert from two yards after Ben Turner had headed goalwards from a corner.
Ardley resisted making changes at half-time as he searched for a way back into the game but Notts' carelessness in possession at times made life even tougher.
Thomas did flash a shot across goal, but goalkeeper Joel Dixon was rarely called into action while Slocombe made a fine save to thwart Angus.
But Barrow did have their third goal when substitute Jack Hindle converted at the near post.
It what was a disappointing afternoon for Notts who lost for the first time at home since being beaten by Barnet in the opening weeks of the season.

FALLEN (Warner Bros.) Starring: Denzel Washington, John Goodman, Donald Sutherland, Embeth Davidtz. Screenplay: Nicholas Kazan. Producers: Charles Roven and Dawn Steel Director: Gregory Hoblit. MPAA Rating: R (profanity, violence, adult themes) Running Time: 124 minutes. Reviewed by Scott Renshaw.
FALLEN proves that if you want to evoke millennial dread, you can't just flirt with it -- you've got to embrace it. The supernatural thriller stars Denzel Washington as John Hobbes, a Philadelphia homicide detective whose greatest success -- the capture and subsequent execution of serial killer Edgar Reese (Elias Koteas) -- is about to turn into his greatest challenge. It seems that a copycat is on the loose, committing murders with Reese's m.o. and leaving teasing clues for Hobbes. Is the new killer a former accomplice of Reese? Is a rogue cop involved?
Along to help answer those questions are John Goodman as Hobbes' loyal partner, Donald Sutherland as his uptight lieutenant and Embeth Davidtz as a theology professor. All are talented performers who acquit themselves admirably, but not not a one of them has much to work with in Nicholas Kazan's script. The dialogue is certainly effective, particularly in its laconic familiarity of co-worker and familial interaction. The story simply doesn't create a single compelling character to anchor the narrative. That includes Hobbes, who remains a vaguely heroic cipher despite the work of consummate professional Washington. In fact, the only real spark of personality comes from the film's body-hopping villain, who occupies so many different characters that he provides more of a menacing general presence than a specific personality.
Consequently, FALLEN becomes a thriller almost entirely of situation, that situation being the threat of a malevolent eternal entity. While Gregory Hoblit puts together a few unique and creepy moments, including a chase through a busy city street which becomes a psychic relay race, his approach to the material is disappointingly conventional.  In short, it's just not all that disturbing, or even particularly creative in its approach to the subject of demons walking among us. Isolated moments build effective tension, but Hoblit and Kazan ultimately resort to the kind of obligatory "gotcha" climax which can leave an audience with the faint aftertaste of cleverness despite a general lack of substance. Like Hoblit's PRIMAL FEAR, FALLEN is a well-made and well-acted film which too often settles for the easy or obvious way to handle a situation. When that situation involves the vengeful soul of an ageless fallen angel, you should hope for a bit more than gunplay and the crooning of Rolling Stones tunes.
On the Renshaw scale of 0 to 10 fallen angles: 5.

The Stupids (1996) 94m
This silly comedy by John Landis could have been created for the screen without any reference to the children's storybooks by Harry Allard and James Marshall, but I suppose a copyrighted title like 'The Stupids' was too good to pass up. The film utilizes the stories' characters and their pets (computer-animated in the style of Marshall's illustrations) but the plot is far trickier than their simple adventures in print. What's great about THE STUPIDS is that its storyline is made of the flimsiest of ideas, thrown together with such abandon that you'll probably think scriptwriter Brent Forrester made the whole thing up as he went along.  After launching his own investigation he concludes that he has discovered a dastardly scheme of global proportions. His wife and two children, who are just as oblivious to the real world as he is, don't need much convincing. Living up to their family name, all four of them embark on a series of misadventures, which, of course, ends up with them unraveling a genuine conspiracy playing out right under their noses.
The humor of THE STUPIDS is a lot smarter than its title suggests, although like many comedies it resorts to slapstick for the finale. The film's highlight has Arnold explaining his conspiracy theory to the rest of the family while we see it being played out for us in his mind (Christopher Lee is a hilarious asset to this scene). It perfectly encapsulates both the world the Stupids live in and the rationale of the script, which derives its humor from the way that Stanley and his family create bizarre hypotheses to explain the most ordinary of day-to-day situations. Clearly, the children have been brought up with the same insulated logic as their parents - they too misinterpret the most basic of encounters. This allows the characters to interact in different combinations without having any one smarter family member offsetting the balance - for example, Father and Daughter believe they have died because the lights have suddenly been turned off (this is taken from the original stories); Mother and Son figure out that an elevator must be a time machine; Brother and Sister are convinced that their parents are being held for ransom in a Chinese restaurant; Mom and her children try to use a computer and blow up the office; Mom rushes into a wig shop to get a disguise and emerges covered entirely in wigs; and of course the family's patron, Stanley, creates mayhem wherever he goes on his crusade to save the world (he also gets to sing a hilariously complicated song about his family tree).
THE STUPIDS was generally slammed by critics and didn't do as well as other films by Landis, which is a shame as it has a goofy, easy-going charm that is absent in many of his later films. One likely reason for its failure is that the public had had enough of Tom Arnold's tabloid-grabbing antics with former wife Roseanne Barr. But I think Arnold, happily traipsing about in his powder-blue suit and straw hat, is a good choice for Stanley Stupid. Bigger comedy stars would have no doubt stamped their own brand of personality over the top of the character - they would have certainly outshone the rest of the family, whose parts are conspicuously underplayed. I have to assume that this flat acting style was a conscious choice of Landis, who didn't want his cast to mug it up. Landis fans will also be quick to spot his trademark 'See You Next Wednesday' message incorporated into the film, a sight gag he uses to show that he has included material from an unused screenplay he once wrote as a teenager. His other trademark - using fellow directors in cameos - is a little harder to spot, unless you really know your film-makers. Film buffs may recognize Robert Wise as Stanley's neighbor. Wise/Stupid. Do you think that's another Landis in-joke? Look for the re-named London Symphony Orchestra in the final credits.
