Willie Beamen - what a player!!!

Disadvantages: not enough on field action, have to endure Willies vommiting

...neck!" Conclusion I think Any Given Sunday is won of the all-time greatest sports movies. Not only does it have a genuinely great cast and the acting is fantastic, but it explores some sides of American Football that not many people would know about, like illegal drug taking to enhance performance, physiotherapists who push players to play when perhaps they shouldn't because the pressure to win is so great and the ego's of some players. As I said ...

'Red 70 Black Star, Red 70 Black Star'

Advantages: Great for fans of the game
Disadvantages: Not so good if you don't know much about the sport or don't like big budget blockbusters

...this led him to make Any Given Sunday in 1999/2000. The cutthroat world of sports politics and financial pressure are mixed with some well filmed on the field entertainment to produce a film that many have praised and many have slated. I am in the first category, but I can see why some wouldn't find this their cup of tea. The Plot Any Given Sunday follows the Miami Sharks, a Associated Football Franchises of America (AFFA) Team through the highs ...

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 ...
