A lot like Boredom

Advantages: Some romantic moments
Disadvantages: No laughs

...Let me break it down a bit for you, perhaps its how when men go out in town they'll see women as numbers, usually on a scale of one to ten, and if I'm trying to give an example to the simple women readers amongst us.. well, I'm out of examples. Sorry. You see A Lot Like Love is a film I caught on television especially for the fact I know there's going to be someone out there interested in it, or either that or they'll just be interested in Ashton ...
...he is about to take a trip to New York (from LA) to see his deaf brother Graham (Tyrone Giordano). His brother has intentions of being a lawyer, and that in itself is worthy of a spinoff film but I guess that doesn't come under the title of romantic comedy. The film is full of extra characters you most likely won't take to, and that includes the boyfriend of Olly's love interest of the film. Olly sees Emily Friehl (Amanda Peet) arguing with her boyfriend, ...

I Don't be.....Overused phrase? Ok, One foot in a great box set.

Advantages: Absolutely brilliant at messing with your emotions, it has everything.
Disadvantages: Not a single one.

...me Victor when I'm on the phone complaining again. One thing I can't complain about is this great box set. Comprising of the full series 1-6 and the Christmas specials plus a couple of special features titled, "Britain's Best Sitcom" and "The story of One Foot in the Grave", there's certainly plenty of viewing. 12 discs in the set with 6 episodes per disc running for 30 min approx. The Christmas specials are roughly 60 to 90 min in length and are ...
...& Annette Crosbie respectively as The embittered and grumpy Victor Meldrew and his long-suffering and surprisingly patient wife Margaret. The series follows Victor & Margaret through Victor's recent early retirement as a security guard replaced by his modern equivalent, an electronic security system. Or by, "A box" as Victor so eloquently puts it. We are taken through Victor's subsequent days on end trying to amuse himself and find things to do ...

Review of The One Foot In The Grave - Series 1-6 - Complete (Box Set) (DVD)

An hilarious tale of a gang of crafty chickens!

Advantages: Great family comedy. All round excellent.
Disadvantages: none.

In my opinion this film is smashing! Amazing animation from the Wallace and Gromit crew captures the lives of a unit of battery chickens and their desperate and imaginitive attempts to escape. Faced with certain death at the hands of the evil farmers wife and her halfwit husband, they are only too happy to accept the help of the dashing cockerel who "flies" into their enclosure one night. So begins their most daring plan so far, but is everything ...
...have the upper hand? This film is a visul delight, the detail and consideration given to each character is wonderful. This is enhanced by the brilliant script, voiced by a choice selection of actors more that equipt to do justice to a dialogue full of memorable one liners. It is suitable for both the young and the old and won't leave your children behind. The action is often hilarious and the story will have you cheering for the chickens along with ...
