Fair Game (DVD)

Advantages: some mildly entertaining moments (seconds more like)
Disadvantages: the performances, the script, the story

...on their foreheads... Fair Game is the acting debut of super model Cindy Crawford and also showcases the "talent" of William Baldwin (one of the Baldwin brothers). The film is directed by newcomer Andrew Sipes. Cindy Crawford plays attorney at law Kate McQueen who is the target of demented KGB Agent, Col. Ilya Kazak (theatrical legend Steven Berkoff) and his hi-tech team of rouge KGB agents. William Baldwin is homicide detective Max Kirkpatrick, ...
...cheese again... BOTTOM LINE Fair Game is not really worth the time and effort of anyone. Lads will watch it becuase of Cindy Crawford and some mildly entertaining action sequences but will never watch it sober. Crawford's white top does manage to get smaller and smaller as the film progresses which will satisfy some. Complete with a laughable script, ultimately poor acting and some budget looking effects, it's not one you'll quing round the block ... Read review

Advantages: NONE
Disadvantages: NONE

...finished before it began. Fair Game was a big flop. She plays a lawyer that is chased by KGB type people that try to eliminate her while Alec Baldwin plays the hero cop attempting to save her. A straight forward plot, girl in danger, boy rescue girl, live happily ever after, with loads of explosions, car crashes and high tech surveillance gadgets. This is really quite a boring movie and the only benefits of it is seeing Alec Baldwin getting all ...
...a glimpse of Cindy Crawford’s beauty spot. (Which is really easy to spot ‘cos she almost points it at the camera!) If you do, just by chance, happen to mistakenly put this one in the video, it’s okay because your video will probably spit it back out. PS: I’ve seen Cindy on the Muppet Show before and I guess she was okay on that. ... Read review

Advantages: You'll laugh til it hurts
Disadvantages: erm, your sides will really hurt......

...over bell bottoms!!!! 4)I Dont Get It. well i watched, i listened, and i understood what he was saying but i still dont get it!!!, dysfunctional families get a real dose of the denis leary attitude in this bit. 5)Rockstar, When denis goes into a rant about singers and groups and how he hates a lot of them, and how he thinks motley crue suck and that bon jovi has got real bad hair,its hard not to laugh out loud at the way he says things (although i disagree with his sentiment because the crue dont suck and bon jovi have good hair) . Even the beegees and the beetles are fair game!!!! 6)I love to Smoke! in this amazing bit of the dvd Denis tells you how much he loves smoking (and drinking)and how he wil always smoke even if the laws change and you're only allowed to do it under a blanket in your bedroom with the lights off, he...

Advantages: Good family film, nicely presented, lots of extras.
Disadvantages: Games aren't very good, film's not as good as the previous two.

...beautifully designed and presented DVDs, and this one is no exception. The artwork on the cover is beautiful and the disc itself features a cute drawing of Thunderbolt, Patch and some of his siblings. The brochure inside is brightly coloured, clearly written and easy to understand for the young fans who want to watch it. The diagram inside shows how to find each feature on the DVD and – as with the Lilo and Stitch DVD – my only criticism of this is that the brochure can be easily torn by over eager, clumsy hands. OVERALL The film is okay, not one of my favourites but my children enjoyed it and have already watched it several times. I found the DVD extras were fairly weak and although I loved the Will Young video, my seven-year-old found the games very disappointing. I think this is where the DVD needed some more work doing...

Advantages: Quite good atmosphere, official game
Disadvantages: A bit slow, occasionally crashes

...Deal or no deal is a major hit not only in the UK but now worldwide. I am sure there are not many people around who have not heard of the game. Noel Edmond's resurgence after his apparent exile from our TV screens has lofted him to the superstar status that he was at the peak of "Noel's House Party". It was a fair theory that since this show is so popular now, this game was going to be released on Interactive DVD alongside many other gameshows now; and that it would top the charts. Well, it has done, but has had mixed reactions from people.... To those who don't know, "Deal or no deal" is a programme on Channel 4 hosted by Mr Blobby's sidekick, where the premise is that there are 22 contestants who each have a box, of which contains a certain amount of money. All these amounts are different to each other, and are not revealed... Read review
