Advantages: its is just an excellant film ... what more can i say?
Disadvantages: it is in my opionion addictive

...in order to keep the pirates in line. Elizabeth follows her heart and really shows off the romance in the the film which only adds to the already fantastic qualities the film possesses. Geoffrey Rush "Captain Barbosa" Captain Barbosa is whats known as the bad guy of the film. He is led by greed and spite. Barbosa and his bunch of wicked mis-fit pirates are cursed from aztec gold that Barbosa led them to, now the crew and Barbosa are forced to ...
...barbosa steals the Black Pearl from Jack Sparrow and sets upon a quest to recover all of the aztec gold in order to lift the curse, yet as well all know it really never is that simple!!!

The Irish Bond.

Advantages: All of the Brosnan films in one box with decent extra's.
Disadvantages: Product placement gets worse by the last film!!

...after the last Bond film, James Bond returned in Bond 17. ----The Films---- GoldenEye (1995) This was the first vehicle that Brosnan appeared in and for me this is probably the better out the four films he made. It is moody, dramatic and will have you on the edge of your seat from beginning to end. Although in some places it does step up toi the line of unbelievable it does not cross it to the extent that a film like Charlie's Angels did. The ...
...with the plot revolving around rouge agent 006 who steals the GoldenEye weapon with the intent of wiping out the Bank of England and all computer records in the City Of London. The weapon itself explodes a nuclear bomb in space and uses the electro magnetic pulse to wipe out anything below within a 30 mile radius, effectively eliminating the use of all electrical equipment. The cast is made up of multi national actors, Sean Bean as 006, Joe Don ...

Loyalty Is Bought, Betrayal Is A Way Of Life...

Advantages: Great acting, direction and story
Disadvantages: None

...really enjoying. That movie was Ronin and since that fateful night watching the movie channels it has become one of my favourite films. It does seem to be a film people discovered more by accident than anything else but I've always thought it was a great film. When a freelancing former US government agent (De Niro) is hired to take part in a job to track down and take a mysterious package it all seems quite easy. The package is wanted by both the ...
...Irish hire a team of Ronin to try and steal the package. The Ronin is a term used for ancient Japanese Samurai Warriors without masters and the group the Irish hire are quite similar to these ancient Warriors. Of course things are never straight forward in this tale of treachery, betrayal and deceit. This is a very fast paced action movie and one of the few I really feel is crying out for a sequel, but will probably never get one. The story keeps ...

Not all that Grimm

Advantages: The visuals
Disadvantages: The acting isn't great

...in a film finally!) playing the brothers Grimm in a film that uses ideas from their many stories and fairy tales to bind a common theme. The 2 brothers are con-men and use folk tales to hoodwink stupid villagers out of their money for almost no work on their part. This is at least until they are nearly caught then have to face a real fairy tale! They are assisted by Mackenzie Crook (mostly known for The Office in the UK) and the other chap whose ...
...brilliant. Steal Hansel and Gretel, Rapunzel, The ginger bread man, Snow White, Cinderella, Rumpelstiltskin, and then mix them all together. Watch it. Love it then watch it some more. This is a film adults and kids will enjoy many times. (this review also appears on dooyoo) ...
