the fast and furious

Advantages: action,taking
Disadvantages: none

The film is packed with action from the word go with a bit of intrigue, a story line which never really shows up, some truly gripping scenes of cars zooming through desolate streets thrown in for good measure. An undercover cop, a beautiful girl, a tough thug with a heart of gold are all mixed into a concoction, which is a product of Hollywood's pure indulgence. Reels and reels of film are used to show the excitement of dangerous racing and cars ...
...Toretto (Vin Diesal) drives on the streets of LA like he owns it. And as far as his gang is concerned he does. He spends his days putting wrench time into high performance racing cars- make and model matter less than the computer controlled fuel injection that makes them literally fly. At nights however it is complete mayhem and anarchy fuelled by adrenaline and high speed. Dom pilots his own earth bound rocket, pocketing as much as $10,000 a ...

great film

Advantages: brilliant film
Disadvantages: gory

I watched this film and i was confused and turned it off, i then was told that i had missed a great film and i tried it again and this was a great film it required me to concerntrate but it was a great film with a great plot. To make the film even better the was the hot Paul Walker in it as well. Joey Gazelle (Paul walker) is a thug who finds himself in the middle of a drug-deal gone wrong in which a hail of gunfire and some dead undercover cops ...
...charged with dispensing one of the steel revolvers used to kill the cops. Instead he stashes the gun in his own basement, just in case he ever needs insurance against his own gang. Unfortunately, Joey's 10-year old son, Nicky (Alex Neuberger), and his best friend Oleg (Cameron Bright), see where the weapon is hidden. Oleg, whose Russian mob-connected step-father is physically abusive towards him and his mother, steals the gun to get his revenge. ...

And Out Of The Dark

Advantages: A beautiful movie
Disadvantages: Lack of special features

...mill big budget actioner. But Into The Blue, certainly registered on my Richter scale. When I recently purchased by Blue Ray DVD player, Into The blue came as a freebie, a taster to wet your appetite I guess. I certainly for one could not think of a more eye watering movie to play on this brand new format. Jared and Sam are a pair of young lovers who share a love of diving; leading a normal everyday existence they get by, neither of them are big ...
...Having been lured into the movie by the images, you soon become aware of the characters. Jared and Sam are great, truly honest working, and a generally decent couple; both have very high morals and are fully aware of what's right and wrong. Bryce however is a different kettle of fish, a bit slimy, a bit treacherous, and certainly one to go for the money; when it matter however his heart does appear to be in the right place. Amanda bares certain resemblances ...

not very good

Advantages: great locations
Disadvantages: weak acting & plot

Right, firstly I want to let you all know this a review of the DVD version of the film after having seen "The Making Of" and the deleted scenes. I don't know if this or Fantastic 4 was made first but whichever was made first, the director obviously saw Jessica Alba in a tight outfit and thought "I can use that in my movie" Jessica Alba does look pretty but she also looks about 13 years old. Paul Walker is a new face to me and I've never seen him ...
...(Rollerball) Caan's son? Ashley Scott is also very pretty and plays her part well and you know she's going to be the weak link in the chain of close friends as the girl he's known for only 14 hours. Take the films The Deep, Jaws & Deep Blue Sea and combine them all with The Bahama's, Drugs, Treasure and Betrayal. The cute looking guy and his girl are down on their luck after he looses his job (by the way, the deleted scene of him saving the boy ...
