Advantages: great programme, great series
Disadvantages: none

This is the box set of the sixth series of the world famous cartoon, The Simpsons. It has been on the TV since it started in the early 1990s, and there seems to be no sign of it stopping. Unfortunately, I've found that the last few series have very inconsistant, with only a handful of good episodes each series. However, I was always a huge fan of the programme when I was younger, so I was delighted when I managed to find this series for only £8 on ...
...you who haven't heard of The Simpsons (though I can't imagine how), the cartoon centres around an american family and their mad and at times highly unbelievable lives. The family comprises of Homer (the father, who has been voted the funniest comedy character on several polls), Marge (the mother, who's less wacky than the others but still has her funny moments), Bart (the little hell-raiser, who's usually in trouble for something, but isn't exactly ...

Advantages: The return of the sex comedy
Disadvantages: Very low budget

If your one of those people that won't watch anything other than big blockbuster movies then Gettin It is certainly not for you, however if you're a bit more open minded, enjoyed the humour of American Pie, Porky's or The Lemon Popsicle movies then this 2006 sex comedy is a must. Gettin it is low budget, filmed with handheld cameras, and looks decidedly cheap. But what Gettin It marks isa resurgence of the sex comedy so popular during the 70's and ...
...be seeing a lot more like it. Silver is a normal kid, he works in his mum and dad's takeaway pizza joint as a delivery boy; he is nothing special and quite withdrawn. Slightly unbelievably this rather nerdy kid has a stunning girlfriend called Sheila who wants to wait for the time to be right to have sex; I'll leave you to decide which part I find unbelievable. Silver however wants sex more than anything, after all his friends are all having sex, ... Read review

Office Space is an instant classic for any office workers out there. Office Space follows the life of Peter (Ron Livingstone) a tired and bored office employee working for Initech, under control of the worst boss known to man, Bill Lumbergh (fantastically played by Gary Cole).

The movie basically covers what it's like to work in an office on a day to day basis and will appeal to anyone who is ... Read review

The acting is good, Isla Fisher and Jason Biggs provided a good performance but the characters were not believabke and there could have been funnier moments. Biggs character decides to propose to his girlfriend in a cupids outfit (one of the funny moments), but fails ...
