Advantages: you might get to watch a great film
Disadvantages: another old film

...become classics. The film The Night of the Hunter belongs to the second, which is recognized now as the classic it is. More about the film later on, but the DVD is part of the move time release, and cost between £5 and £ 8 depending on where you buy the disc. So what do you get for your money, apart from the film? To be honest not a great deal, the extras are different soundtracks, all mono, subtitles and hard of hearing feature. You also get the ...
...I did not expect much more. The front of the disc is very striking will a picture of Robert Mitchum as Harry Powell with the words hate on this hand, and lit very darkly, giving a very menacing feel to the picture.

Advantages: Spooky, mad movie
Disadvantages: A bit long

There Will be Blood - I think this title is very fitting for this movie. It's like a warning, there will be blood and oh my gosh, how definitely true this statement was. There Will be Blood is a 2007 film staring Daniel Day Lewis in the lead role. He actually went on to win the 2007 Academy Award for best Actor for his portrayal of Daniel Plainview. Overall the film was nominated for eight Academy Awards. The film is set in California at the turn ...
...first 15 minutes or so there is no talking and the only sounds we hear is from the spooky cello and piano music. The scenery is quite dark and definitely paints the landscape like it must have been back then. It really suits this type of work as well, the dark, loneliness of the oil fields. It makes prospecting for oil look extremely hard and dangerous and not something you want to be involved in if you are just a lowly worker. Daniel Plainview receives ... Read review

Advantages: There aren't any!
Disadvantages: Where do I start? Bad acting, rubbish storyline....

...figuired it didn't matter if the film itself was ruubish, as at that price was so cheap. Oh how I was wrong!..... The storyline is pretty basic, with Jennifer Love Hewitt being a spoilt rich girl who wants to "increase her social position" by climbing that 'social ladder'. Things is, I'll be honest: after an hour of the film I turned it off. I refuse to watch the rest of it! I am a fan of Miss Love Hewitt, but in this film her acting was appaling! ... Read review

Advantages: Dancing
Disadvantages: No real story line

WOW love this DVD cannot get enough of it. It's quite different to the first though.More dancing, BETTER dancing. I was watching this with my sister and my friends I just can't get enough of it. It's one to watch if you're either at home with friends or partner. If you like films such as Oceans eleven and thrteen then you'll love this. Though the dacing is good, wait no good is an under statement it's FABULOUS but it's got no organised story plot ...
...Definitely one to watch. It's aimed at teenagers more than grown adults. I would most definitely recommend this to any on to watch either on a night in. all in all i love it for me the film is the one of the most compared to 'save the last dance'. ... Read review
