I wouldn't recommend this film to anyone under the age of 10. It is a great kids film - younger ones may not get the full plot but still have fun with it. Older ones will find it silly. There are some funny scenarios but as with most American movies, there is a moral. If you can get past that, it is quite entertaining and the acting is fairly good too.

To End All Wars [2001]


starring: Robert Carlyle, Kiefer Sutherland, Ciarán McMenamin, Mark Strong, Yugo Saso
directed by: David L. Cunningham

As a Scotsman and also ex-military I found the premise of this movie to be interesting.

The reality for me was that it is a bit of a "wannabee" movie at the end of the day.

Robert Carlyle is absolutely nothing like an officer in the British Army of the 1940's (Let alone the 21st Century) - he should have been cast as a lowly corporal/private or such and would have been much more convincing.

He should stick to playing "Begbie" types if you ask me!

There was an awful lot of "touchiness" and "softness" between the soldiers which might appeal to the gay males watching this movie but it is so far off the mark as far as attitudes of British soldiers are concerned - especially from fighting men over half ... Read More:

As other reviewers have noted, a variation on a theme. Not as good as the other Welsh movie nominated for an Oscar, (the other being 'Hedd Wyn') it nonetheless is a welcome addition to the growing number of Welsh films that have been made. Sadly, this film seems to be unavailable in a Region 2 edition from Amazon at the momnet, and the Region 1 offering seems to be the English version. I saw the Welsh language version on its release at a cinema with English subtitles. The film starts quite strongly, and though the storyline is a bit cliched, given that it's largely about God-fearing Welsh-speaking Chapel-going types, the anti-semitic predjudices of the time are accurately reflected - a few years earlier a similar predjudice would have been against ...

Just yesterday, the following question was posed to me: Are publishers cutting down in the number of serious literary fiction they provide to the readers? Several aspects should be considered to answer this question and most of them are presented in this movie. It has been a trend in the past that masterful novels become bestsellers only years after first been published. One of the most notorious cases is Heller's Catch-22. Most publishers are guided by profits, and since serious literary work is usually "financed" by other bestsellers, economic conditions may hamper the amount published of the former.

This movie is a documentary that shows the quest of Mark Moskowitz to find the author of a book, "The Stones of Summer", that marked him deeply ... Read More:

DVD : Erin Brockovich [2000]

Erin Brockovich [2000]


starring: Julia Roberts, David Brisbin, Dawn Didawick, Albert Finney, Valente Rodriguez
directed by: Steven Soderbergh



Based on a real life story, it focuses on a young, sexy mother who is out of luck. She fails to get justice in her life and with mounting debts is desperately trying to get a job. She ends up working for the lawyer who failed to represent her (actually she forces him to give her a job, as she feels he owes her). From her first day onwards, she is met with much jealousy and resilience from the other female employees (because she is so foxy and dresses to accentuate that). However, she always emphasises during the film she is very honest and very hard working (obviously!, since she is white Caucasian and of Polish heritage).

Anyhoo, she is working on a case where a local resident is claiming a water company plant has been making them ill. She does ... Read More:

Prime Suspect 4 - The Lost Child [1995]


starring: Helen Mirren, Beatie Edney, Robert Glenister, Lesley Sharp, Tracy Keating
directed by: John Madden
May 12, 2003


Early in 'The Lost Child' (the fifth episode in the 'Prime Suspect' series) Jane Tennison is shown entering hospital to have her pregnancy terminated; intercut with this is the crime that forms the core of the story: the apparent abduction of a baby. The strain Tennison experiences - the "loss" being investigated recalling her own recent loss - is exquisitely evoked by Mirren. And others are also adversely affected by the grim case: the normally reliable DI Muddyman, haunted by memories of how he himself was abused, breaks down and assaults a suspect. Altogether, it's a great piece of drama.
