Catherine Zeta Jones - Chloe
Steven Mackintosh - John Tambini
Ewan McGregor - Dean Raymond
Peter Gunn - Terry Colcott
Director: Carl Prechezer

Rating: 80%
Plot: Blue Juice is a film which follows a group of twenty-somethings as they deal with becoming more mature and responsible adults. The lead character is JC, a surfer and something of a local legend. He is enjoying a care-free life by the coast with his girlfriend Chloe when three of his old mates show up. Terry, about to be married, is out to enjoy his last days of freedom. Josh, a successful techno music producer is challenged as to whether his tunes are original or just soulless rip-offs of old classics. And Dean is a small time drug dealer who must face reality and make something of his life. With all this going on JC realises that he too must decide whether to settle down with Chloe or to travel round the world and loose her forever. Blue Juice is a funny and entertaining film. Highlights include Catherine's 'Trifle' scene and Terry on a drug-induced high.

Notice any paralells with any of the music producers ? was this seen aimed at anyone I wonder ?

P.S: not a very good film, but had two or three good scenes

Craig, I think Zeta Jones is saving that rare bit for Douglas.
