What a great series
Review of Our Friends In The North DVD by
GF1124
Advantages: Well acted, great story.
Disadvantages: None.
In my humble opinion this series never received the critical acclaim it deserved. With superb acting, particularly from Christopher Eccleston, and a deeply moving and interesting story line, it was one of the best BBC productions for many years.
A great cast was assembled and the story was told in a clear and dramatic fashion. I am amazed that it hardly ever gets mentioned these days as I truly believed it to be a masterpiece of it's time.
Of course, ...

Best black & white movie of our black history
Review of Schindler's List (Special Edition) by

Advantages: Emotional movie, real history, best subject
Disadvantages: Extremely violent
...description. ▀ ▀
Schindler's List is a biographical film directed by Steven Spielberg in 1993, telling the story of Oskar Schindler, a Sudeten-German Catholic businessman who saved the lives of over one thousand Polish Jews during the Final Solution. It was based on the book Schindler's Ark by Thomas Keneally, and starred Liam Neeson as Schindler, Ralph Fiennes as the Nazi officer Amon Goth, and Ben Kingsley as Schindler's secretary ... ...completing the Academy Award-winning film Schindler's List. The original aim of the foundation was to record testimonies of all of the remaining survivors of the Holocaust (which in Hebrew is called the Shoah) as a collection of videotaped interviews.

Ive got a secret! "sweet heart"
Review of Secrets And Lies DVD by
Harryslarry
Advantages: Brilliant acting !
Disadvantages: Not suited to those who like action every second!
...lightning Drama! There are secrets that affect all members of this family and the painful truth revealed!
There are brilliant performances from all concerned , especially Brenda Blethlyn as neurotic and lonely Cynthia. With 5 nominations for Oscars and 3 BAFTA Awards, this film is a rare treat, and treated with compassion. I feel its one of the the Directors best films to date, may he continue! A film to be enjoyed again and again.
Thanks for the ...

American Gothic
Review of There Will Be Blood DVD by
l-m-n-o-p
Advantages: Fantastic performances, characters, soundtrack, photography...
Disadvantages: Story meanders a lot; at 158 minutes long, it will bore many
...is what, for me, makes There Will Be Blood so great. Whilst the finale is certainly unexpected, not entirely convincing and defies most of the rules of modern cinema, I loved it. As the grotesque Plainview bellowed "I'm finished!", everyone in the audience simultaneously held their breath in a shocked silence.
There Will Be Blood is one of the most ambitious, beautiful and unpredictable films of the new millennium. It's also incredibly divisive. ... ...is generally the case) or you will find it hammy. The shrieking, atonal score will haunt or annoy you. As for the ending, well, it either will blow your mind and go down as one of the best climaxes in the history of cinema, or leave you shaking your head in disbelief that the director could do something so ridiculous after the excellent preceding two hours of the film. Either way, you have to admire Anderson's audacity. ...

PS Its Brilliant!
Review of P.S. I Love You DVD by
DeniseKelly40
Advantages: Great storyline
Disadvantages: May not be your type of film
...different and each ends with P.S. I love you. It is quite a romantic film, which could make you cry, but is light hearted all at the same time. Gerry has Holly doing lots of different things from singing to sending her to a trip to Ireland. By the time his letter stop Holly is stronger and is ready to move on as she has accepted what has happened and that he has died. Throughout the film you find out how Holly and Gerry met, about their relationship ... ...You feel like you can relate to them.
Hilary Swank is the main character in this film. She is Holly and I think she plays the part very well. She shows Holly's emoticons well. Gerry is played by Gerard Butler who also puts on a good performance as the loveable Gerry. The only problem is his Irish accent wasn't good at all. Being Irish myself I struggled to work out why he was speaking so funny (I thought he had a lisp). Also I never would have figured ...
