This is not the sort of movie I go for, but having read a few glowing reviews elsewhere about the film and the quality of picture and sound, and given that it is selling for well under £10, I thought I'd try it.
If you don't like musicals then its best to avoid, but I don't mind them and hoped this would be entertaining part of the film.
From the outset, the movie is crammed with songs, maybe one or two could be better or one or two less for me, and a little more dialogue. I felt it became a bit too broadway,but seeing as this is taken from the stageshow I can see how it's turned out that way.
Some people are saying it's the new Grease or some are going OTT and saying it's better, but I can report IMO, it's not in the same Grade.

DVD : Looker [1981] (REGION 1) (NTSC)
Looker was a pretty cheesy disappointment when it came out, so a quarter of a century on it's a surprise to see that its aged better than many of its contemporaries, largely because some of its low-tech predictions aren't that wide of the mark (a key plot point is the CGI duplication of performers in commercials). There's no shortage of problems, though. The plotting is both lazy and often predictable, relying on a similar structure to writer-director Michael Crichton's previous film, Coma (yet another research institute, yet another conspiracy), and to say there are plotholes is putting it mildly - exactly why are James Coburn and Leigh Taylor Young's evil corporate villains murdering the models in the first place? Crichton certainly never feels the need to come ... Read More:

DVD : Attack the Gas Station! [1999] (NTSC)
Attack the Gas Station! is an effective show case for 4 young stars and goes some way to prove that the newly revitalised Korean cinema has a lot to offer. Anarchic, briskly staged and with some genuinely funny moments, it is a film which could be remade to good effect in the West (I can see Kevin Spacey as the beleagued station owner, for instance) although I doubt that all of the verve could be recaptured, for this is a young man's film, angry and alert to wider issues.

"If they move, kill them" is a running joke through the film as the number of hostages increases and, whether or not a deliberate reference to Peckinpah's Wild Bunch, its still funny.

The least convincing aspect of the film is the flashbacks. While useful in providing some ... Read More:
