One tree hill is a fantastic TV show with basketball, relationships and it is full of surprises! You will love it at any age and it is impossible to stop watching...the only thing that stopped me was my own exhaustion!

I was hoping for a good British gangster movie but this isn't. A lot of people like Sean Bean but I always got the impression it was somebody acting. The driver was well played and, as usual, the film went up a couple of notches when Tom Wilkinson appeared. As well as the acting the poor script let the film down.

The producers of Layer Cake tried very hard to shape this standard gangster fare into something fresh, cool and original. They failed.
Matthew Vaughn who produced Lock, Stock & Two Smoking Barrels and Snatch lazily decided to produce yet another gangster flick, without Guy Ritchie, as a vehicle to move him into the mainstream as a director. Having a proven track record in the genre, it was a safe bet the film would find an audience, however I assume he couldn't produce a film with any similarity to Lock, Stock and decided to produce this rubbish instead. I also couldn't stomach the publicity overload for this film, which was plain perplexing. Nobody seemed to understood what a hot iron scorching the bonnet ... Read More: >>More Details |

The British gangster movie is rightly looked down upon. After Guy Richie's 'Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels' there seems to be a slew of below par films set in the British underworld, not least directed by Richie himself. Amongst these films was one that rose above and with its recent BluRay release I decided to revisit 'Layer Cake' to see if it held up - and it does.
XXXX is a new breed of criminal. He is not interested in power or fame, instead he plans to make his money importing drugs and get out whilst he still can. Everything seems to be going to plan until the big boss asked him for a favour. XXXX now finds himself dealing with the likes of 'The Duke' a two bit flash Harry who could get them all killed.

This workaday biopic calls itself 'Sylvia' but it might just as easily have been 'Ted'. In the 50s, Plath and Hughes were poetry's Posh and Becks and the whole film hinges on their relationship, wiping out in one fell swoop the rich pickings of her early life and all but ignoring her poetry. We get the last few lines of 'Daddy', but virtually nothing about Plath's late father Otto. Her two children appear from nowhere, and her relentless pursuit of the domestic ideal (so lovingly detailed in her letters and diaries) is reduced to a fit of cake-baking. She had a notoriously complex relationship with her mother Aurelia but you'd never guess it from 'Sylvia' (although Paltrow's own mother Blythe Danner is perfectly cast in the role). So too is Paltrow herself ... Read More:

Having read all the other reviews, I think that most of them are rather unkind to this movie.
Prior to the battle, the Somme area was a quiet backwater of the Great War with activity consisting of both sides daily lobbing a few shells into "No Man's Land" just to maintain the pretence that there was a war on. Neither side wanted to do anything but have a quiet life. As for the soldiers being too clean, well in a non-combat area, baths and showers were available as was clean clothing. The Somme area is chalk, so there would have been none of the mud usually associated with trench warfare. I'm old enough to have had conversations with Great War veterans, like my grandfathers and other relatives and their perception of the war was of 99% total boredom ... Read More: >>More Details |

What a great discovery this film turned out to be.
Never heard of it. Took a chance. Bingo. Earthy Newcastle locations, fabulous b/w photography, great pace, wonderful performances and a fine, realistic script. Director Sidney Havers went on to direct many of the best episodes of THE AVENGERS. The DVD transfer is close to HD. On a 40" HD TV it looks so sharp and the greyscale tones are deep and beautiful. This one makes me curious about the quality of other Optimum DVD releases. Shame there is no trailer. Would have been cool to see how this gem was pitched, but the bottom line is, this is one terrific feature on a marvelous digital transfer that MUST have been taken from the original negative to make it look this good. >>More Details |

On the plus side Acorn's set of the "complete" Butterflies is relatively complete (unlike the recent The Good Life collection) and contains a good transfer of the four seasons of this seminal TV show. The transfer of the show (which ran from 1978-1983) looks quite good despite its age. There is also an interesting, informative, if too brief interview with Butterflies creator Carla Lane.
On the downside viewers can access the episodes only via a Play All function. There are no links to specific episodes and this is quite annoying. Additionally, the set does not contain the 13 minute reunion of the cast (save for Michael Ripper) for the Beeb's Children in Need aid programme. It should. This points up once again the far too haphazard aspects of many BBC TV box sets. Compare ... Read More: >>More Details |

This is a nice, satisfying telling of the Verne story, with special effects by Ray Harryhausen and a good score by Bernard Herrman. Escapees from a Civil War prison camp are blown way off course in a balloon they stole. They find themselves on an apparently deserted island somewhere in the Pacific, are joined by two women who were shipwrecked, and eventually come face-to-face with Captain Nemo and the wrecked Nautilus.
They have to deal with pirates, an erupting volcano and Harryhausen's creature threats. These include very large versions of a hungry red crab, an aggressive chicken, a bee and an unhappy squid. Some of the creatures turn out to be very good boiled or roasted. The movie holds up well because of a strong story, good action, and fairly well-defined characters. ... Read More: >>More Details |
