Advantages: Great if you like the Simpsons (obviously), I got it for very cheap
Disadvantages: It's not cheap everywhere, has a different feel to later series.

This is, fairly obviously, the DVD of the first TV series of the very popular show, 'The Simpsons'. For those of you who haven't heard of it before, the Simpsons is a cartoon series that has been running since the early 90s, which focuses on one particular family, the Simpsons. It's a great cartoon for children, but also has a lot of jokes in it that only adults will get, making it accessible for all ages of viewers. On the TV the Simpsons is on ...
...rapidly in recent years. In the mid to late 90s, the Simpsons was the must-see cartoon for children and young teenagers as well as their parents, so it is quite a disappointment to hear that it isn't what it used to be. And so, that's why I decided to buy the first series on DVD - to see how good it used to be in the beginning, regardless of whether or not it's run out of steam in the past few series. That, and also because I managed to find the ... Read review

Advantages: Lots of well known actors - bit different
Disadvantages: there are better films I suppose

...It shows his side as Mini's stepfather and as they start their affair he then starts to fall for her and you can see he is struggling with wanting to be with her but, also embarrassed by what he is doing. Carrie-Anne Moss is Diane, Mini's mother and I thought she played her role pretty well. Obviously she is probably most well known for her role in the 'Matrix' but here she plays a different role altogether. We see her as a drunk who is nasty and ...
...career. We see her becoming more and more worked up as the film progresses and I thought she was very good in her character role. Jeff Goldblum plays the neighbour in the film of Mini, Diane and Martin. He plays a big time TV producer and is actually sleeping with Diane on the side! He also likes to watch Mini whilst she is in the pool which Mini knows. He played a part that seemed the same as he always does - charming and a bit boring but he suited ... Read review

Through out the film the attraction between them grows. Michael Caine after the transformation needs to teach Gracie to walk elegantly, to have a talent to show in the contest, to eat like a lady and also to perfect a speech to give at ...
...whilst living a healthy life style, which I think is one of the best parts of the film as she tries to smuggle donuts in her dress. Does the pageant goes smoothly you will have to wait and see. This film has a star cast with William Shatner who plays Stan Fields a judge in the beauty pageant. This film is funny and is not a normal role that you would see Sandra Bullock in but I think that she plays the character really well and puts her heart ... Read review

Advantages: romantic comedy
