More shoes than Trannies

Advantages: harmless feelgood movie
Disadvantages: Could have researched trannies much deeper

The film looks nice and the basic plot is OK. It's based on a true story about a boot & shoes factory that is on the verge of going under but is saved from the axe by starting to produce footwear for crossdressers, we then follow how that change effects those who work there. I'm sure the story was vigorously brutalized to have maximum impact on the viewers at the cinema. Non TV's (transvestites) and people who don't know any TV's are going to leave ...
...Lola's definition of TV (they're nothing like Brezhnev in a dress darling, get your research right) and thinking more drag queen. Lola can't seem to decide if she's a TV or a drag queen. Most drag queens are gay men pastiching women. Most TV's are straight men who want to wear womens clothes for pleasure, comfort or excitement. Simple as that. I have no idea where they filmed "The Angel Bar", but it looked very much like Madame Jo Jo's in Soho. If ...

Review of Kinky Boots (DVD)

One Man And A Piano

Advantages: fantastic comedy show
Disadvantages: some dodgy camera angles

...you would like. 1 Ready For This. This is the opening song for the show and Minchin comes onto the stage in a blaze of strobe lights and opens the show with a great little rock ditty where he manages to poke fun at himself while accompanied by a recording of him beatboxing with back up singers. 2 Prejudice In our modern free spoken society There is a word that we still hold taboo A word with a terrible history Of being used to ...
...to gingers, the playground taunt of choice. A hilarious song that manages to use more ginger puns than you thought existed! 3 America America is not a song but a stand up routine which discusses how forward Americans are compared to Australians and British people and are not afraid to shout about their achievements. Somehow the dialogue manages to veer onto the big bang and what will happen to a certain office block in Times Square in Manhattan ...

Review of Ready For This - Tim Minchin

A night you would want to remember!

Advantages: Funny, Famous cameo, Unpredictable
Disadvantages: slightly unbelievable at times.

Well I saw the Hangover in the cinema, and I plan on purchasing on DVD in the near future. I thought this film was hilarious - one of my friends more so as he decided to go to watch it in the cinema about 3 or 4 times! I personally felt the star of the show so to speak was Zach Galifianakis who played slightly odd soon to be brother in law Alan. I just thought his stupidity/twisted sense of humour was really funny, and entertained me all the way ...
...really, but at the same time quite amusing. I won't go into too much detail of what happens as I don't want to spoil any of the suprises during the film. Basically, the film is about a group of guys who go to Vegas for a bloke called Doug to have a stag night. Doug doesn't really feature in the film other than the beginning and end - as he goes missing - which is the point of the film. They wake up the morning after with a trashed hotel room, and ...

Review of The Hangover (DVD)

Golden British Comedy

Advantages: comedy, length, price, extras
Disadvantages: /

Last Christmas I received Harry Hill's TV Burp Gold DVD, which over the course of the year I watched on many occasions. When I discovered a second DVD was going to be released, I couldn't wait. The television series was still as strong as ever, and a second DVD would make it perfect. The ITV show itself is incredible. Each week Harry sits down for half an hour to point out of all the funny things that have happened in TV. For example, Coleen Nolan ...
...on the front of it Harry Hill is pointing a large remote at us whilst wearing his trademark black suit and white shirt with the enormous collar. Underneath the DVD title is written in bright gold lettering to allow it to stand out. It is one that is easily spotted and looks wonderful too. Of course, it is what is on the inside that counts! With this, you can watch all the best bits of the last series', giving you a show a little over an hour. So ...
