Hush (DVD)

Advantages: few really good songs
Disadvantages: some not-so-good somgs

...I bought this album because it had been recommended by a lot of magazines but when i got it i was relally quite dissapointed by it. I just really liked the songs that had been released as singles- I think Summer son was really good and In Our lifetime was a massive hit for them. the album didn't really change throughout it, and I got a bit bored by the end. it'd be good for all the "cool" parents out there. The Hush went down really well, and Texas got several awards for it, as well as great airtime for Summer Son. I wouldn't buy it if I'd already heard it but for a tenner, it was an okay buy...

..., which just happens to be my favourite story of them all so far, will be great too. The film is a PG and as such I would recommend that you watch it yourself first before showing it to very young children and you can be rest assured that my two children have not suffered any adverse nightmares or strange fears because of the film infact they were glued to the screen that I think they would recommend it to their friends. This is a certain must see for families and Harry Potter fans of all ages. I do recommend this film to anyone and everyone but as a PG the very young should be watching with an adult but as I said I think it is a family film anyway. If you haven't seen the first film I suggest you watch that first but it wouldn't be the end of the world if you watched this one first. I have the DVD and I hope to review that too because...

...I watched L.A. Confidential for the first time last night on DVD. I had be told by others that it was an excellent film but I was still surprised by just how good it really was when I saw it. It is a film that is very clever in the sense that there are all different stories running through but eventually they all end up starting to become intertwined. To give a basic introduction into this film, firstly it is directed by Curtis Hanson but was originally based on a book by James Ellroy. The film is set in Los Angeles (believe it or not!) in the 1950s/ 60s and looks at the corrupt nature of the Los Angeles Police Department. The film has an all-star cast, which I shall come to in more depth later but to give just a few names; we see Russell Crowe, Kevin Spacey, Guy Pearce, Kim Basinger and Danny DeVito all playing starring roles...
