Advantages: It wasn't to expensive
Disadvantages: Its very long

Oliver Twist is a interesting film. It keeps you glued to your seets and its a film for all the family with bits of comedy and emotion. The film is about a young boy which is an orphan called oliver who is moved around to different orphanages regularly. As he grew up he was forced to work and live in a warehouse. Afterwards he ran from the warehouse and ended up in london, here he was found by a man called Fagan who took him him and taught him how ...
...the parts when Oliver is being taught and his character devepment during the movie. He grows in confidence and learns much from Fagan. Oliver twist is a long film and some of the story may be deemed boring for some of the audience. On the whole Oliver Twist is a fantastic production and was well worth the money i payed for it, I would recomend this dvd and the book to anyone. It has a fantastic opening and a fantastic ending and should be watchted ...

...a now 21 year old Rainbow Brite brings back lovely memories of my youth. The story of a young girl who finds a rainbow belt, and with it can bring colour to the world.

A movie to the max!

Advantages: characters, plot, price
Disadvantages: /

...order, which meant starting with Billboard Dad. This film was made in 1998, when the girls were just twelve! It seems so long ago now, and indeed I could not fully remember the story. So for that reason, I could not wait to sit down and watch! But what was all the excitement about? Billboard Dad is set in Los Angeles. It is the story of two little girls, called Tess and Emily, and their Dad, Max. Having lost their mum not too long ago, their Dad ...
...a billboard advert for him (think 'Personals' to the max!), but behind his back. When women start to write to him he is quite shocked, unaware of his giant publicity. But when he realises what has happened, he soon comes round to the idea, if not only for his girls. Can he find somebody who can make him happy, or will the huge billboard be a figure of bad memory? When I first started watching this film now, I wasn't sure what to expect. I recall ...

Review of Billboard Dad (DVD)

His life is fantastic, his neighbours...not so fantastic

Advantages: Full of hilarious witty humour, great old-fashioned animation
Disadvantages: Lots of things that are unsuitable for children, a little slow in places

...Little does he know that the farms he steals from are owned by the three meanest farmers around - Boggis, Bunce and Bean. And when the farmers find out a fox has been stealing from them, they decide to do anything it takes to get rid of the mangy fox and his family. Now Mr Fox has to fight to save, not only his own family, but the families of all the others animals nearby, whose lives he has endangered. ~ Cast ~ Mr Fox - George Clooney Mrs Fox ...
...don’t remember ever having read the book Fantastic Mr Fox which is written by Roald Dahl, but this looked like a great classic film that I had to see. The animation is slightly strange as it isn't modern and bright like most animation is today but it had an old-fashioned kind of feel to it. The way the characters moved and the general feel of the animation seemed old. This was the only thing that originally put me off seeing the film but it actually ...
