A must for ballet lovers

Advantages: Great Ballet - great music- wonderful dancing
Disadvantages: no ballet is as good on dvd as live- filming of ballets from russia is inferior

I saw this ballet live many years ago and the music and dancing by the Bolshoi is exciting and wonderful. Irek is one of the strongest male dancers in the world- one of the greats, and this is the role where he stated he lost half a stone during the performance- so much energy demanded in the role. The two ladies - his beautiful wife, and the seductive partner of Krassus (his enemy) are outstanding. The music includes the beloved theme used in ...

Joseph and the Amazing Timeless Dreamcoat

Advantages: Great film
Disadvantages: Special Edition?

...story follows a man called Joseph as he is betrayed by his brothers and sold as a slave, there is no dialogue; just singing and you stay interested without. The only critiscm I can make, however, is that personally I don't feel it is really worth buying the Special Edition as extra features don't interest me. if you're buying it for the film, do it! For lovers of 60's-80's musicals. ...

The sun'll come out tomorrow....

Advantages: The songs
Disadvantages: corny in places

Annie is an orphan who tries to escape from the orphanage time and time again due to the horrid orphanage owner. One day Annie get's chosen to live with a millionaire 'Daddy Warbuck'. She is treated like a Princess but Annie has this dream of finding her mother and father so escapes from his home too. Daddy Warbucks decides to place a ad on the local radio for Annie's sake encouraging anyone who knows the whereabouts of her parents to come forward ...
...that she is there's. Will Annie find her real parents? If you aren't a fan of musicals then this one is definitely not for you. At every whip stick the cast burst into song and sing their little hearts out. I'm not really into musicals as such but the songs featured in the film are so well known that I can't help but sing along and tap my foot as if I'm enjoying myself. The main character Annie is very sweet but has an adventurous edge to her which ...

High School Music Number One!!

Advantages: GOOD ENTERTAINMENT
Disadvantages: NOT FOR THE OLDER TYPE

The very first High School Musical... This makes me want to say 'It's the start of something new!' I fist got this DVD in 2006 when it was first brought out. Obviously there has been a further two DVD's been released but I still prefer this one. The most famous actors/actresses in it are Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens. This film made me want to get up and sing the whole way through! The DVD Itself This is a Disney channel original movie which is very ...
...the story itself. High School Musical is very popular and lots of children go crazy for this. The reason why I like this is because once I watched it I got hooked on it and wanted to see more. This is a great film and I would recommend to those who have children and would enjoy this film! I would give this 4/5 from me due to the fact that it is not suited for all ages. ...
