Blue Murder At St Trinians DVD

Advantages: great film
Disadvantages: did not live up to all the media hype

...I went and saw this film at the cinema and with the all star cast of Stephen Fry, Colin Firth (who I can say has never disappointed in a film I have seen to date), Rupert Everett, Mischa Barton and Russell Brand and with a sound track from Girls Aloud., I expected this to be a great film and it was not what I expected it to be having watched the trailer I was really excited about going to see it and it was a good film but I think it got a lot of media hype, which I think sucked me in to think it was going to be the best film of the year. The film is about St Trinian's, a school for young ladies its, brings together a motley crew of ungovernable girls who are using their wit and ingenuity to save the school from bankruptcy. Worth a watch !... Read review

Advantages: The End!
Disadvantages: Too many celebrities , poor storyline

...St Trinians is a British film which was released at the end of 2007. The film was directed by Oliver Parker. This film is aimed at teenagers , perhaps mainly girls , however I'm sure some boys will find it amusing. * St Trinians - The story * St Trinians is a school for naughty girls.

Although ,she soon settles in and becomes friends with the other girls. The film consists... Read review

Advantages: Not as bad as many say
Disadvantages: Russell Brand is very bland

...'s very much a generational thing where as younger kids will love it (if allowed to watch it) because it's kind of funny and a bit saucy for the most part. The only big difference in the movie is technology, though in the originals movies the young girls had gadgets technologically advanced for the years the movies were actually made, that and of course Russell Brand. For those that feel the need to blast this movie out of the water, go back and check the originals and prepare for a shock. On the whole it's not as bad as everyone says, but it's certainly not a classic of British cinema, it's a bit old hat. For my money I'd far recommend watching a movie like Son Of Rambow as an example of good British comedy, though those watching St Trinians with a fresh mind will possibly enjoy it. St Trinians is now available on both DVD and Blue Ray... Read review
