Honest Jeff
Advantages: Shows One Man Can Make A Difference Disadvantages: But Only In The Movies
Jefferson Smith (Jimmy Stewart; It's A Wonderful Life, Vertigo) is a regular guy from rural Montana who believes in democracy, liberty and the ideals encapsulated by American politics. After the death of the senator representing his state, he is chosen by the powers that be to go to Washington to replace him. Seen as an innocent, naive and completely under the thumb yet extremely patriotic yokel; the fat cats that have decided his fate feel comfortable ... ...heads to the capital to take his place in the U.S senate, he encounters a world far removed from Abraham Lincoln's vision of government of the people, by the people, for the people. Indeed the cynicism and corruptness of the system and the betrayl by Senator Paine (Claude Rains; Casablanca, Lawrence of Arabia), a close friend of Smith's father, regarding the building of an unneccesary dam, leads him to a jaded state in which he questions the true ...

It' a Wonderful Film
Advantages: Fantastic family film Disadvantages: None
This is, without doubt, one of the best films ever made. James Stewart is superb as George Bailey, a depressed man who end his life thinking he is worthless. Enter Clarence, an angel desperately trying to earn his wings from God, who begins to show George differently.
When George says he wishes he'd never been born, Clarence grants his wish and George is shown just how different the town he lives in would be if he'd never existed. The story of how ... ...heartwarming and really does make you think just what might have happened if you haddn't been in a certain place at a certain time. The story is brillinatly told and the ending is wonderful. It definitely deserved to win every oscar going but, sadly, it didn't and wasn't actually recognised until much later on.
This is a fantastic film for the whole family, a true classic. ...

The most romantic movie ever!
Advantages: The story and chemistry between the two characters. Disadvantages: Almost none, maybe it would be better if it is based on modern life say, 21st century.
...knew it was this romantic! The story just captures my heart. It's about love at the first sight and this boy who was not so well off as the girl fell deeply inlove with the girl eventhough she did not acknowledge his actions. She was this rich girl who always had rich guys at her side. That did not break this boy's courage to tackle her. They both fell deeply inlove but one day they the girl had to leave to town and all the 365 letters the boy wrote ...

Chilling!
Advantages: Excellent special effects, gripping Disadvantages: Story leaves much to be desired
When water temperature in the North Atlantic begins to drop significantly it would appear to be a warning of things to come, or at least that’s what Professor Jack Hall (Dennis Quaid) thinks. He tries to convince the government that there is a natural disaster on the way but they refuse to believe the theories of a climatologist. Suffice to say Jack is right and soon after, horrendous weather hits the world, engulfing it with water and snow and when ... ...death on the spot. While this natural disaster is occurring, Jack’s son Sam (Jake Gyllehaal) is in New York for a competition with a few friends, when the weather worsens they’re forced to take shelter in a public library and Jack promises to rescue his son… but will he be too late?
The Day After Tomorrow is another in a long line of disaster movies with a purpose of playing on peoples sense of reality and paranoia. Much like Armageddon portrayed ...

Damned United DVD - A damned good watch!
Advantages: Interesting & entertaining portrayal of one one of football's real characters Disadvantages: Football movies aren't to everyone's taste, controversial character
"I wouldn't say I was the best manager in the business. But I was in the top one" Brian Clough was undoubtedly one of the all-time greats in English football. With an incredible 251 goals in 274 games, "Old Big 'Ead" deserved far more than the two international caps he actually received. After being forced to hang up his boots prematurely due to injury, he took up management at the age of 30 - and was the youngest manager in the football league. ... ...Highlights included taking Derby from the depths of Division 2 to the very peak of the 1st division (now the Premiership) and then, even more incredibly, taking unknown and unfancied Nottingham Forest from the second flight and winning back-to-back European Cups. Like his playing career, his managerial achievements should have led to recognition at international level, but Clough was, and still is, the best English manager never to manage England. ...
