I have to be honest, I was really dreading this film after some of the reviews I have read. My opinion is that OK, this film had a fairly flimsy story with no real depth, but as a fantasy adventure film it did an OK job. Granted it will never be a classic, but the effects were quite good, fairytale story... little people v big bad guys..... so all in all, probably never watch it again, but it was a alright Sunday afternoon no brainer of a movie.

To be honest, I didn't think season 4 would be all that good, what with the death of Marissa Cooper at the end of season 3, I really didn't think the writers would come up with anything like what they did. However, when I started watching season 4, I knew that I was wrong to judge based on what happened last series. This is quite a short season - just 16 episodes, but it's a good one. I totally did not see the romance between Ryan and Taylor coming - if I'm truthful Ryan seemed to get over Marissa quite quickly; I thought he would be mourning and very unsociable for at least half of the series. The last episode had me in tears, at the last line they just came pouring out uncontrollably. Overall, a great season and an unbelievable ... Read More:

I honestly wasn't expecting much out of this. So I was very suprised when I loved it from start to finish! It has everything we have come to expect of a classic Disney film.. a strong hero/heroine, a hilarious sidekick character, a great soundtrack and a beautiful display of animation. Yes, it really is a great film, with a powerful story and some great characters. Highly recommended.

Generally this adventure has much to recommend it and does, indeed provide an interesting record of the time in which it was made. I came away glad to have watched it but not clear I would watch it again any time soon. Many things grated with me, in no particular order: * WOTAN uses the name Doctor Who explicitly several times which I found grating * The change of companions is abrupt and the story ends just as the new companions enter the TARDIS meaning you miss the trademark 'bigger on the inside' line * The TARDIS prop is looking very tatty (though the last time I saw the Tennant TARDIS it had a hole in!) * The last episode has a huge battle scene with War Machines vs. soldiers which is much too ...

Having recently read a feature in Sight & Sound abaout how Clint Eastwood is possibly, going on his track record, America's greatest living director, I felt that, as a self-respecting film fan, I should really delve into a bit of his back catalogue. For some reason, the blurb about 'The Bridges of Madison County' appealed to me more than many of his other films, so I rented it and was in due course blown away. The film is full of incredibly emotive, and as it moves on, incredibly tense scenes, expertly played by Eastwood and co-star Meryl Streep. It's fundamentally a love story, with Streep, playing an Italian who has moved to live in Iowa simply because it is in America, torn between her husband, who she has apparently grown out of love with, and Eastwood, who she ...

This film has been resonating with me days after watching it... not because it is the best film ever, but because it touched me deeply by the subtle way that it normalises the coming out experience and the subsequent gay relationships that can happen afterwards. It was just so, so refreshing to witness on screen the unfolding lives, with no apologies and no judgements... and no funny camp fall guy to get in the way of the true story. More Gay cinema like this... please! My only criticism really would be that it ended with a little too much over sentimentality... but hey that's Hollywood for you. Buy it, rent it, see it.

I bought this film on a whim because it was cheap in a shop, though looking forward to watching as i had heard it was a great film. But when i watched it i was quite disapointed. Not a huge amount happens, and i would have liked to have seen more singing and dancing. Also the storyline isn't great, they had too many main characters and therefore there wasnt enough time to form an attatchment to the characters or to develop they're story further. Altough it was a plesant watch, i wouldn't be in a hurry to watch it again.

Waking The Dead's sixth series in 2007 cemented its place in my heart as the best TV drama in Britain. The cast are superb; Trevor Eve can be hilarious as D.Supt. Boyd, Dr Foley must be the greatest psycho-analyst in the world and I have to say I prefer the imperious Tara Fitzgerald and the hugely under-rated theatre actress Félicité du Jeu to the previous female cast members, especially as Eve seems to spend a lot of time dissecting corpses listening to eighties ska music. 'Double Bind' is a particular favourite, a wonderfully peculiar episode (as they all are, in their own way) and the funniest scene I've seen in a long time involves Eve using Spence and Stella to remodel the death of two victims killed in the coital position in 'The Fall'. The 2008 series was just as good ... Read More:

When it aired in my country in the summer of 2002 and i loved it. it was one of the best mini series i have ever watched. i don't know if it was the subject, gay romance in 19 century England, but this is to this day still in my top 5 of most see mini series. the plot, the script, the character and the acting are amazing. you can tell it is BBC made due to it's quality. i highly recommend it and If you don't want to buy try and rent it from somewhere I promise it be worth it.
