...two films of this trilogy, Once Upon A Time In Mexico is a fantastic film in itself. The story is interesting and exciting. There are a few extra features: deleted scenes, featurettes about how the film was made and trailers. My favourite extra is where the director, Robert Rodriguez, shows how to make Sands' favourite dish - Puerco Pibil. It's also really interesting to see how the film was made with a small budget. For such a low budget film, ... Read review

Eye candy for the ladies, eye candy for the gents, romance, comedy, quit wit, bad V good and a consistent plot.

...list goes on! I found ocean's twelve a bit of a disappointment after how fantastic ocean's eleven was. The same great cast but I felt it was a little more disjointed compared to the seamless writing of eleven. It also includes Catherine Zeta-Jones with a rather dodgy accent!

The first film in the vengeance trilogy, Sympathy for Mr Vengeance did not reach out to many cinemas outside of S.Korea so he had no expectations that this film would even go beyond the first's successes. But this film appealed to the mainstream of beyond Korea and exposed the entire ...
...This character in this immense film Oh Dae-Su,superbly acted by Choi Min-sik, is wrongly imprisoned for seemingly no reason. We see him quite drunk in the beginning of the film, going out with his friend, and he rings his daughter, who we assume is just a by-product and had no relevance to the plot we were about to watch unfold. It was a stormy dark night when he is kidnapped, dumped into this room. It does not seem like a prison, it is like a regular ... Read review
