DVD Description
ALL OVER ME is an intense, naturalistic portrait of a changing friendship between two teenage girls, set in New York's gritty Hell's Kitchen. The symbiotic, loving relationship between riot-grrrl teens Ellen (Tara Subkoff) and Claude (Alison Folland) degrades after Ellen begins dating a rough-hewn, mean-spirited older boy, and Claude tries on a lesbian identity with the help of a new gay male friend. The film is suffused with alternative music-scene bit parts and cameos, including Leisha Hailey (of the Murmurs) and Mary Timony (of Helium).

Advantages: funny Disadvantages: not for those easily offended
...this is Jimmy Carr's best dvd so far it provides a large amount of comedy however it is not for anyone who gets easily offended as their are many jokes which cane easily cause offence. however if you are not bothered by this i would recommend this dvd as it provided me and my friends great entertainment for hours on end and it caused us to continue to laugh even after we had finished watching the dvd and also the extra's are great fun and provide just as much entertainment as the original dvd. i would reccomend this dvd to anyone over the age of 15 as their is a lot of swear words in this dvd and i would not recommend it to all those all don't want their children to be subject to swear words...

Advantages: great, classic and funny Disadvantages: a bit short
...This is a very good DVD for all of the family and for anyone who just want a really big laugh on the sofa. With the brilliance of Eric Sykes and Tommy Cooper makes it superb and very special to anyone as it was certainly a treat for me. I have got to admit that I produced really good laughter on these two little films and the casting and storylines are great. It is the kind of DVD you just want to watch over and over again as you cannot take your eyes of this as it is really funny to watch. Although these two films are not on for long with the duration you can easily enjoy the quick and superb humour that this DVD produces....
