Desire DVD

Advantages: Funny, Action Packed
Disadvantages: None

...Im going to cut to the chase, this is a hilarios action packed movie that you could never get bored of. The charachters are funny but beleivable, The storyline is flawless and the overall concept is unbeatable. Its about a cop who likes to do things his won way which in most cases isnt nessicaritly the most desirable way in the eyes of the rest of the poilice force, this leads to him being suspended and going on vacation in beverly hills. I wont say any more else i'll spoil the story for you but in the end as in all films he gets the bad guy. The only downside to this film is that the language has much to be desired, due to overly flambouyant use of the 'f' word and other words of similar category. Still, you could always buy the dvd one and use subtitles with sound muted.... Read review

Advantages: If you keep the reciept you can take it back
Disadvantages: over 2 hours of your life wasted

...I received this for Christmas and was REALLY looking forward to watching it as I'd never seen Bill Baileys stand up before. I was GUTTED. The word 'boring' is all that came to mind, I'd expected distracted yet witty with the odd bout of surrealism thrown in for good measure, this is almost what ambled off the screen.

The extra's also leave a lot to be desired, the 'interview' is a fumbling bit of obvious padding as is the 'game'. If you like Bill Bailey from programmes such as 'Never mind the buzzcocks' and hope to see more of that kind of thing then steer clear of this dvd, you'll be disappointed.... Read review

...Oliver Stone's Nixon is similar in style and some content to JFK in that it alludes to the military industrial complex which is ultimately responsible for Kennedy's death and Nixon's rise and fall from powr.The scenes in the film are very dark and shadowy and Anthony Hopkins is excellent in playing the multifaceted personality of President Nixon. This film is long and arduous to watch but a very interesting interpretation of how one man's desire for success and to be liked makes him the most despised president in US history held responsible for Watergate and Vietnam. The general mood of the film is one of darkness which Stone excels himself at.... Read review
