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 ...

Review of Sex And The City - The Movie (DVD)

There's final hits and final hits. What kind is this one to be?

Advantages: One Of The Best Films To Come Out Of The UK.
Disadvantages: None!

...I first saw the film Trainspotting after hearing so much controversy about it on television, from reading about it in the newspapers and from everyone talking about it around me at the time. It was all everyone was talking about on it's release in 1996 and of course I just had to see it for myself to see what all the hype was about. Well I went to the pictures to watch this film and was quite shocked by this outrageously, yet brilliant tale of five ...
...ago that my husband purchased Trainspotting to add to our DVD collection as we both really enjoyed watching it over the years at various times on television (in a sick kind of way I guess). He picked it up second-hand for £1 at a car boot sale, so it certainly was a great bargain. This film really will not be suited to everyone though. I think you will either love it like I do, or absolutely hate it. It certainly is worth watching once though just ...
