Eddie Murphy's back with more, ahem, nutty antics as big fat prof and big fat family in Nutty Professor II: The Klumps
‘Kelty Street Kids‘ and ‘Waiting For Gordon'. Adam Smith Theatre. Kirkcaldy. The Filth And The Fury (15) iii (Julien Temple. UK, 2000) 107 mins. In his second attempt at defining the Sex Pistols story, Temple has adopted a revisionist stance with the intention of dispelling the notion that the group were the stooges of an art school movement masterminded by self-proclaimed svengali Malcolm McLaren. Splicing TV ads and stock footage into interviews with the band and previously unseen live footage. Temple wants us to see the group as a genuine explosion of fury at the state of Britain towards the end of the 1970s. Ultimately. The Filth And The Fury is eye candy that manages to tacitly confirm the Melarenflk'estwood aesthetic vision. Odeon. Edinburgh.
Final Destination (15) *** (James Wong. US. 2000) Devon Sawa, Ali Larter. Kerr Smith. ()8 mins. After a premonition Alex (Devon Sawa) manages to save a bunch of his classmates from a plane crash. As the survivors gruesomely pop their clogs one-by-one. it becomes apparent that death is playing catch-up. Disposable horror hokum. but the pace. irreverence and sick, black humour ensure the most entertaining teen slasher since the original Scream. Cameo. Iidinburgh.

Flamenco (U) *** (Carlos Saura, Spain, 2000) Joaquin Cortes, Marlo Maya, Matilde Coral. 100 mins. ()ne of the most thrilling things about watching live Flamenco is the atmosphere. Translate that to the screen and much of the thrill is gone. Luckily for Saura, he had cinematographer Vittorio Storaro
(Last 7a,ng In Paris. Apocalypse Now) on
his side. Visually striking throughout, Flamenco was filmed in a disused railway station bathed in an orange glow, giving rise to sleek silhouettes and shadows. But this homage to the Flamenco art is strictly for hardcore fans. Kirkcaldy: Adam Smith.
The Flintstones In Viva Rock Vegas (PG)
** (Brian Levant. US, 2000) Mark Addy, Stephen Baldwin. ()1 mins. This prequel shows I-‘red (Addy) and Barney (Baldwin) in
their bachelor days when they first Court Wilma (Johnston) and Betty (Jane Krakowski). They are abetted in this by a little green alien called (iazoo (Alan Cumming), but are hampered by the rival attentions of Wilma 's slimy aristocratic
chum Chip Rockefeller (Thomas Gibson).
f And they all live happily ever after, without : a trace of originality. zip or zest. General
: release.
