You Wanted Me, Here I Am

Advantages: An excellent Screenplay, brilliant performances and a very enjoyable movie
Disadvantages: Other than the sad death of Heath Ledger none

Having established himself as the protector of Gotham City, Batman sets out with the help of the District Attorney Harvey Dent and Police Lieutenant Jim Gordon to bring down the largest Criminal organisations. Their plans take a bit of a diversion though when a new mastermind takes control of Gotham's crime syndicate. The Joker demands that Batman unmask himself and sets off on a killing spree to try and ensure it happens. The real question for the ...
...been over a year since the follow up to Batman Begins was released but yesterday rather than head to the cinema we decided to finally watch it. Having heard nothing but good things about it and loving the previous film it seemed almost unbelievable that we hadn't watched it yet. Where Batman Begins had in my opinion taken the Batman films to a new level I was hoping that The Dark Knight would carry on this progression and I certainly wasn't disappointed. ...

...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)

Great Idea, Mediocre Movie...

Advantages: It tries really hard to be a tense techno-thriller...
Disadvantages: ... but fails, mainly through poor editing and production style.

...I'm Chain Reaction starts off with an intriguing premise and goes downhill from there, despite trying really hard to be a tense techno-thriller. In The initial idea, of a new power-source being developed from water (we're not talking traditional hydro-power here though) - which supposedly has the capacity to use the hydrogen in small glass of water to power the whole city of Chicago for weeks -is brilliant. The idea of the rich and powerful oil companies ...
...it's not bad. Chain There's a brain behind this film (somewhat a rarity for this genre), but unfortunately it's been rather lost in the translation. It's almost as though someone said, "Hey, here's a brilliant idea for a film, let's turn it into a mediocre movie" - and lo! - it became so. It's certainly not a terrible film - watching it didn't leave me feeling that part of my life had been stolen - just that I hadn't made a profit on what time I'd ...

Review of Chain Reaction (DVD)

Jack Ryan vs Harrison Ford

Advantages: All Jack Ryan stories are together and in order
Disadvantages: Jack Ryan played by different actors

...Soviet nuclear sub heading for the US. The Government think he is going to attack but Jack Ryan (Alec Baldwin) thinks he wants to defect. Jack has a couple of hours to prove his theory before the US Government find the 'Red October' and blow it up. Sean Connery is brilliant as usual but I found The Hunt for Red October very slow to start with, although it got exciting towards the end. *Patriot Games* Patriot Games had me hooked from start to finish. ...
...then a race to stop the terrorist whose brother he killed from killing his family. Non-stop action and suspense. *Clear and Present Danger* Clear and Present Danger had me hooked from start to finish (although slightly complicated storyline). Jack Ryan (Harrison Ford) is appointed acting CIA Deputy Director of Intelligence aqnd heads off to Colombia to investigate the murder of one of the President's friends. This film is full of action and cover ...

Review of The Jack Ryan Collection (Box Set) (DVD)

Batman Begins/ Dark Knight Blu Ray Box

Advantages: Great Films, Good Value for Blu Ray
Disadvantages: Still cheaper to buy normal DVD and the difference isnt that huge

...Nolans Excellent Screen Conversion of The Caped Crusader Both films are set in the dark and dirty city of Gotham, the stories follow Batman as he fights crime and generally saves the day. Batman Begins: This film basically sets the scene for the probable next few batman films, we see bruce waynes story from the murder of his parents... to overcoming personal demons and rising to become the batman. While stopping along the way to kick Scarecrow ...
...packing in his job as the Batman, theres a new politician in town... a Mr Harvey Dent,and he is doing a great job of cleaning up Gotham so why would Gotham need a Vigilante..... because the jokers in town thats why. I have to honestly say joking aside.... Heath Ledgers performance in this film is nothing short of AMAZING, he will make you walk around asking people " Why So Serious" Trust Me.... buy this film... just to see him in his final and finest ...
