Talking Polar Bears!?!?!

Advantages: Some good special effects
Disadvantages: Poor ending, repetitive, poor acting by some

...night I decided to give the Golden Compass a go. Released in December 2007 this film was based on Phillip Pullman's 'His Dark Materials' books. There was a huge amount of hype and publicity surrounding the release of this film but did it live up to it's hype? In my opinion no! The Plot In this film humans souls are carried outside the body in the form of an animal called a 'demon'. These demons take many forms ranging from dogs to rats and accompany ...

Good, not great

Advantages: It's tthe Simpsons!
Disadvantages: It's a bit too long and convoluted at times

The idea (global environmental armaggeddon) is clever and ripe for plucking but somehow it falls a little bit flat. Strangely, the animation is almost too good for me - it's just not as two dimensional and YELLOW as I like my Simpsons. Parts of the plot are almost Southpark ...
