As if Adolescence Wasn't Full of Enough Troubles
Review of The Shaggy Dog DVD by Shroud

Advantages: Excellent storyline, great performances, timeless humour, "clean" fun
Disadvantages: the black adnd white may surprise some younger viewers

...book by one Felix Salten The timing and cast they chose could not have been better. Fred MacMurray's was a well recognised star whose career had hit a quiet spell, Jean Hagen's was going through a run of guest-spots-on-TV-shows-itis , and Tommy Kirk and Annette Funicello were both well known to young fans of the Mickey Mouse Club, and just the right age to play the parts needed. Nor was it a bad career move from the actors, MacMurray was launched ...
...beach babe movie history. With the known faces of veteran actors and a solid script, and the same meticulous attention to detail in regards to special effects as previously seen in 20,000 leagues Under the Sea, it was no surprise when it wowed critics and movie goers alike. Seemingly strangely, given the fact that the two previous live action films were in colour, this one was shot in black and white, as were several other films after it. Given that ... Read review

Away with the Faeries
Review of Darby O'Gill And The Little People DVD by Shroud

Advantages: rich in Irish folklore, great cast
Disadvantages: only the R1 release has the original voices and soundtrack intact

...Herminie T. Kavanagh's two books Darby O'Gill and the Good People and Ashes of Old Wishes and Other Darby O' Gill Tales. Darby O' Gill is the groundskeeper for a local estate who spends a lot more time at the pub spinning yarns about his adventures with the Little people than he does doing his actual job. This is not due to his being merely shiftless however, for Darby is actually getting on in years and so the decision is made by his employer to ...
...Darby is aghast, not thinking himself ready to be put out to pasture, and so tells his daughter that the young man is seasonal help. Quite how he expected her to believe that when his retirement would also mean losing the tied cottage, I don't think even Darby knew. What Darby also did not realise, is that his tales about the Little People were not as fanciful as he and everyone else thought. For King Brian of the leprechauns has familiarised himself ...

Worthy Third Installment
Review of High School Musical 3 - Senior Year DVD by katygriff

Advantages: Fun
Disadvantages: None

I love High School Musical and I saw the third one at the cinema last weekend now for the second time as I love it so much. It is the most fun and fantastic film and follows on from the first two very well due to its slightly more grown up feel and songs and dances. This review will hopefully tell you why this trilogy has been finished off perfectly with this fab third film. Story of this film is that it is senior year at East high school and everybody ...
...This film shows that the high school musical franchise is as strong as ever and the third installment still captures all of the Disney magic and once again leaves the audience wanting more. I have to say that this film is definitely one you should go and see if you want a couple of hours of pure fun. The film lasts for just under 2 hours which seems long but it goes by in a flash and as always with these films it is a Universal certificate. You ... Read review

...of water and watching the Care Bears movie? I was quite surprised that hubby didn't even object to this, and actually seemed quite excited about the film! He must have been feeling delicate too. Care Bears - The Movie I used to like the Care Bears - I was never a huge fan, but had a couple of the bears, including Birthday Bear (my favourite), and used to get Care Bears films out of the video shop along with My Little Pony, and Herbie goes ...
...film, it's the first Care Bear's film, and was released in 1985, but I'm sure I must have seen it at some point. So, onto the story In the orphanage the children are ready for bed, and want a bedtime story before they go off to sleep. So, the orphanage owner Mr Cherrywood (voice over by Mickey Rooney) tells them a story…..about a time when people stopped caring. Care-a-lot is where the Care Bears live, and it's such a nice place to live, ... Read review
