Advantages: Good story, answers many questions raised in the series. Disadvantages: No DVD extras!!
just after finishing season 1, which isn't a bad place to insert it in the sequence. Series 1 raises a number of questions about the Earth-Minbari war and the involvement of Jeffrey Sinclair, which In The Beginning handily answers.
If you're not already a fan, this is still worth a watch. The CGI is pretty slick, the battles are exciting and you don't have to be familiar with the characters or anything else about Bab 5 to enjoy it, presumably that was the intention of the makers. That said, I'd guess that you're always going to enjoy it more if you're familiar with the background.
However, once again we're short changed with regards to DVD extras. Having watched the Season 1 Box set and The Gathering, I shouldn't have been surprised, yet still was, at the lack of any DVD extras whatsoever. A very poor show indeed! Considering the RRP ...
Advantages: The start of the story, good actors, story Disadvantages: None
Ever wondered how it all began? How did Batman become Batman, where does he get his suit from, where does he get his desire and drive to sort out the criminals in Gotham City? Well, if you have ever asked these questions then Batman Begins is for you.
Obviously there have been other Batman movies before this one but this movie is what some would call the first in the story and was released in 2005 but tells the story of Bruce Wayne's Early years and the beginning of Batman. I thought this Batman movie was one of the best. This actually has a really good story line and is very watchable. I think sometimes with the previous Batman movies it's more about the fight between the baddie and Batman and doesn't really have a story whereas this one I found really interesting and good to know. It now makes sense when you watch other Batman movies ...
The sequel of the acclaimed best selling game of all time, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 lives up to and smashes its predecessors achievements. Its story line carries on directly from that of Modern Warfare and once again the player takes on the role of multiple characters, ranging from an american soldier in the middle east to an undercover operative in a Russian terrorist group.
It incorporates excellent AI and provides unrelating fast paced action to completely blow your senses apart. With many new weapons, hand-held to rocket powered, it makes the game far more interactive and varied than the original.
Whilst the campaign is incredibly fun it lacks in certain areas. For one it is rather shorter than the original. Additionally, the unrelenting action and attack does grow to be quite weary and in time you begin to miss the breaks ...
