"You like 'em? I make 'em"

Advantages: Great laughs, extremely entertaining
Disadvantages: None

...picked this DVD up and my first impression was pure, undiluted regret about not having watched that before. Now, every time that my brother comes around, we just pop this in the DVD and laugh like a couple of maniacal hyenas. There is something very different about this movie; the atmosphere, the acting, the characters and personalities are all fresh and original. While not all actors gave top notch performances, a few endearing characters did more ...
...a long time in watching My Big Fat Greek Wedding is because I've read a couple of reviews which poked fun at Greek culture, based upon the movie. But when I finally watched it, I must admit that there are absolutely no racist connotations in the movie. Yes, it does poke fun at Toula's Greek family, but I would rather say that the audience gets to laugh with the family, and not at it. It is an extremely, extremely entertaining and diverting movie, ...

RARRRR!! - GROOVY BABY!

Advantages: Fun, quirky humour and a lot of action.
Disadvantages: A little rude.

...The film 'Goldmember' opens to Austin Powers, (Michael Myers ) zooming along in his colourful Union Jack 'Shaguar', followed by a 60's psychedelic dance sequence. This sets the tone of the third film from the fabulous stable of mock spy films which parody James Bond and other similar films in the 'Spy'genre. Austin 'Danger' Powers is a trendy spy from the 60s with a penchant for the ladies and he reels them in with lines such as 'You've got my mojo ...
...at the 'swinging 60's'. Austin 'Danger' Powers is a trendy and colourful 'International Man of Mystery' from London, who travels around in time in his mission to overcome evil. Well as usual with these films of Austin Powers it isn't really about the plot, so expect little serious content here. This is a self parody, and a film within a film. The basic premise is that Doctor Evil, arch enemy to Austin Powers wants to destroy the world with his newly ...

It turns out that she has left him a pack of huskey dogs, in her will. Ted is very much a city guy and doesn't know the first thing about huskey dogs, so initially he thinks about selling them to the highest ...
...who his birth mother was and getting to know the dogs (plus also wondering who in the community could possibly be his biological father too), the more he feels he should take the dogs on and learn to be able to race them, as his mother used to when she was alive. - Genre/Type of Movie - This is very much a kids/family comedy adventure movie. - Thoughts & Opinions - This is a pretty typical Disney movie that I'd imagine most young kids would enjoy. ...
