Best Farewell Tour

Advantages: Good amount of songs, great special features, Band is in their prime
Disadvantages: The Eagles are going away!

...My favorite band being the eagles, this farewell tour was more emotional than it was entertaining. They perform most of their famous songs (except for "Best of My Love"!) and they have a couple of excellent Special Features. The Special Features include interviews with each individual member of The Eagles and backstage looks at their performances. The live performances are great and the crowds make it that much more entertaining. Don Henley and Glenn ...

LIVE AID - DAY THAT ROCKED THE WORLD

Advantages: Great memories of a great day
Disadvantages: None

...date was yes it was Live Aid, I was 16 at the time sadly I didn't get to go there as it was down in London (Wembly Stadium), but I got to watch it all on the Television. It started in London at Midday, USA joined in at Midday their time which was around 5pm our time UK ended at 10pm then USA took us through to around 4am next day what a spectacular show it was. Now at that time Video Recorders were fairly new to the world and our house didn't have ...
...last year when they released Live Aid the DVD. Live Aid was the creation of Bob Geldof and Midge Ure and it came about after they had recorded the original Band Aid song "Do They Know It's Christmas" which was created after Bob and Midge saw a BBC news report about the famine in Africa. Do They Know It's Christmas to this day is still the biggest selling single of all time and featured bands such as Duran Duran, Bananarama, Wham and acts such as ...

Review of Live Aid (Various Artists) (Box Set) (DVD)

A Dream or a Nightmare?

Advantages: Great singing, acting, outfits.
Disadvantages: A bit boring, a bit samey all the way through.

Dreamgirls is probably most notable for starring Beyonce Knowles as Deena Jones. Also starring are the handsome Jamie Fox as manager and Cadillac sales man, Curtis Taylor Jr., and Eddie Murphy as the lengendary Jimmy Early. The plot follows a trio of young, black, female singers called 'The Dreamettes' as they fight their way onto the pop charts against a tide of prejudice. Whilst this movie includes songs in the form of stage performances at the ...
...third of the way through when Effie (Jennifer Hudson) finds out she is to be replaced as lead singer by Deena. From then on, random musical outbursts take presidence and since I really can't stand musicals (however, I love music), this really began to annoy me. Whilst the acting is good and the scenary is good and everything is pretty much ok and good in this movie, nothing but the singing is great. Unfortunately, when I say the singing is great, ...

Should have left it on the shelf!

Advantages: erm.......... good songs
Disadvantages: Weak plot and script, wooden acting

...any of them get the fame they so desperately want? Well the plot may sound a little basic but this is really all there is to the film. I did find there was a little about the student outside of school but it was mainly centred around the School and their school work. For me I was expecting a lot but was sadly disappointed. I know the film was made back in 1980 but for me it just looked very cheap and as if they had no interest in making a good script ...
...and Maureen Teefy Making of Fame Featurettes Fame Field Trip visit’s the school that inspired the movie Trailer I have watched any of these so I am not able to make comment on the, The running time of the film is 128 minutes and I personally found this was very long and at times I was very bored. The certificate is a 15 and I do agree with this as there is a lot of strong language and moderate nudity. I paid just £3 for this DVD over 2 years ...
