characters from their animated universe into the real world. When Doris (Kyla Pratt), a sad teenager in Philadelphia, turns on a rerun of FAT ALBERT AND THE COSBY KIDS, her tears compel the always-helpful Fat Albert to jump through the TV screen to her rescue. His friends quickly follow, and to Doris's astonishment, the whole Fat Albert gang magically transforms into real live people right in her living room. Not knowing what to do with her odd new friends, Doris adamantly denies having a problem, and encourages the boys to jump back into the TV set. But Albert can see that Doris is lonely and is determined to find her some friends. As Albert tries to fix Doris's problem, the rest of the gang tries to adjust to their new, unscripted world. Meanwhile, Albert finds himself falling in love with Doris's foster sister, Lauri. But as soon as the gang begins to enjoy the perks of being real, their brightly coloured outfits start to fade. Taking this as a sign that they do not belong in the real world, the boys decide it's time to go home. Bill Cosby (co-writer of the film and creator of the original series) makes a guest appearance as himself, warning Albert that he must return to his animated world before evaporating into a cloud of celluloid dust. But before Albert can leave, he must solve Doris's problem. Kenan Thompson (of Saturday Night Live fame) is charming as Albert, who demonstrates the power of believing in one's self by never letting anything (including his size) get in the way of his goals.

Advantages: Great laughs throughout Disadvantages: ???
I bought this dvd about 3 months ago on Ebay.
After loving his hit series 'PHOENIX NIGHTS',and watching 'Live at the Bolton Albert Halls',about two years previously I knew he was a class act,with a unique comedy style of his own.
It wasnt up until just randomly coming across it on Ebay that I was reminded what a great and hilarious talent he is.
I payed only 0.99p for the dvd,which had been used previously,but had come in great condition.
Only yesterday,I saw it in HMV for 6 pounds,which is great value for such a great installment of laughs.
The DVD is called 'Peter Kay,Live at the Bolton Albert Halls,as part of his 'Mum wants a Bungalow Tour'.
Bolton being his home town,it was bound to be a sell-out
It's filmed as part of his sell out ,180 date tour that spanned 9 months and was seen by 300,000 people.
Many people who are seen ...
Advantages: Fun, nice story Disadvantages: Predictable
I first watched My Big Fat Greek Wedding a few years ago and although it hasn't become one of my favourite films, I do still watch it from time to time.
The film first came out in 2002 so has been around for quite a while now. The story of the film is based around a character called Toula Portokalos (Christina Eleusiniotis). Toula is from a greek family, who take the traditions of their culture very seriously. Her family own a resteraunt called 'Dancing Zorbas' where she works as a waitress. She is in her thirties and yet has never really done anything with her life. She is plain and no-one really notices her as she goes around her everyday life.
One day Toula decides to do something about her life and signs up to a college course. It isn't easy for her to persuade her Father Gus (Michael Constantine), but her Mother Maria ...
Advantages: Good storyline, good characters Disadvantages: Not very funny
Simon Pegg stars as the main character in this film 'Run Fat Boy Run'. I have liked some of the films he has been in before including 'Hot Fuzz' and 'Shaun Of The Dead', so I thought I would give this film a go.
Run Fat Boy Run begins with the main character Dennis Doyle (Simon Pegg) running from his wedding to his pregnant fiance Libby Odell (Thandie Newton). A few years later though he is definitely regretting his decision. He luckily has been allowed to still see his son Jake (Matthew Fenton), but picking him up from his Mum's makes him realise what he is missing out. He isn't the best Dad and tends to turn up late to pick his son up.
He isn't very successful in other areas of his life either. He works in a shop as a security guard, but often gets outrun by the thieves. He lives in a flat underneath his landlords house and is ...
