Spider, The Trilogy... Light-hearted fun

Advantages: Kid friendly, easy top watch, likable hero
Disadvantages: 20 minutes of the third film are BAD. Not very scary.

This series is less dark than many of the other comic book movies. The sort of thing you don't even hesitate to let your kids watch. My 8 year old sister loves these movies. The first film shows the making of spiderman, with the Green Goblin as his main enemy. It follows the comic books pretty closely and Kirsten Dunst is a lovely MJ. Maguire is good as spiderman because he's not got the cool factor, which suits the character. The biggest difference ...
...second film has Dr Octopus as the villain, leading to a lot of nice stunts using those mechanical arms to climb buildings and so forth. The third film has a 20 minute period in the middle with 'evil spider man' that is just wrong, appalling and should be deleted. You need to be cool to pull that off, cool butch and manly, Maguire bless him, isn't. Good otherwise though. I like the villain the most out of the three and the method for killing him was ...

Review of Spider-Man Trilogy (Blu-ray) (Box Set)

00Heaven?

Advantages: fresh approach to bond
Disadvantages: not the classic bond attitude

As I was lucky enough to get this movie on blu-ray for free from Sony, I had to watch it in high definition. Truly stunning, awesome quality on a pretty good bond movie. It has enough action in, and is generally a good movie, however I feel that Sony have placed too much in-movie advertising.. the sony viao laptops, the sony ericsson phones, and the sony blu-ray player and discs. But if you're into the movie you wont notice that, it doesnt exactly ...
...Daniel Craig plays in beautifully, although he's not quite the same 007 as what I am used to.It's the littel things really, for example when he is asked shaken or stirred... shaken right?... no apparently he doesnt give a damn. The movie gets straight into action, and then calms down, and then action, and calm and then action... it goes up and down over and over. But the ending is good and I'll not give away any spoilers. Now if I didn't get this ...

Review of Casino Royale (Blu-Ray)

The Fugitive Blue Ray dvd

Advantages: The audio is very good
Disadvantages: Video is very disappointing

...oscar for his role as the deputy and Harrison Ford is brilliant as Dr Kimble. It's a fast paced, intelligent film which keeps you on the edge of your seat until the end. Unfortunately I was quite disappointed in this blue ray presentation. The picture quality is dull and the colours are not as crisp as I expected. Some of the darker scenes are impoved but still look a bit grainy, The audio is quite good and an improvement on the original dvd which ...

...him. in this batman film the joker is a bit more of a terrorist than a criminal, with blackmail and hostages. batman has a sort of Q from james bond and a new good guy Harvey who is a sort of polatictian who has a dark ending. Cast Dark Knights cast is absolutly outstanding, they may not be brad pitt, tom cruise and keria knightly (they're really famous) but it has actors that act just as well if not better. a special congrates to Heath Ledger ...

Review of The Dark Knight (Blu-ray)

Indies Back and looking Great

Advantages: Superb
Disadvantages: Dodgy Ending

Indiana Jones and the Crystal Skull. Some sarcastic and critical people have called this film 'Indiana Jones and The Milking of the 4th Cash Cow. The film as you might expect has a plethora of stars, Harrison Ford - Indiana Jones. Karen Allen - Marion Ravenwood. Shia LaBeouf - Mutt Willliams. John Hurt - Professor Oxley. Jim Broadbent Dean Charles Stanford. Kate Blanchett - Irina Spalko. Ray Winston - Mac George McHale. Notably ...
...Marcus (Denholm Mitchell Elliott) who died in 1992. A very brief synopsis of the story begins with Indie and Mac taken against their will to 'Area 51', where Clues lead them onwards ending up in the jungle. Along the way Indie will pick up a deranged John Hurt, an old flame and a unknown Son! I won't fill in the innards of the story because it really would spoil it for you. The soundtrack is nothing special apart of course from Indies theme tune. ...
