A Brilliant Film About The Legend Who Is Prince.

Advantages: Outstanding Film And Soundtrack.
Disadvantages: Absolutely None

...of course the fantastic song Purple Rain. You could not wish for a bigger quantity of consistently fabulous music wrapped into one film. It makes me wish that Prince and other 80s singers would stay the way they were because music from that decade was the best it has ever been and in my opinion there is very few singers "now," regardless of how good they are. Who have that same ability to take a song and make it magical like the ones in the 80s did. ...
...like those I heard in Purple Rain. But, I was sadly disappointed! I wonder how it happens that musicians as good as Prince lose their effect? The only reason I can find is that they are conforming and trying to blend in with the music you hear now and because of that they lose the "essence" that made thier music so special and different in the first place. Its a shame! If his music was still anything like his earlier stuff and like it was in Purple ...

Feed me, Krelborn, FEED ME NOW!

Advantages: Music, plot, acting, everything
Disadvantages: None

...film version of it. Little Shop Of Horrors was directed by Frank Oz, and features the arrival of a strange and interesting new plant in the failing Skid Row flower shop owned and run by Mushnik. His two employees are the geeky and friendless Seymour and the blonde bimbo Audrey. Other characters emerge as the film progresses, but the main protagonist to these two is the plant, named Audrey II by Seymour. The plant's arrival, just when it seemed ...
...the shop. Initially a tiny little thing, Seymour nurtures it until one day he finds that in order for the plant to grow, there is one thing it needs to be feed more than anything else: blood! What makes this film work is the timing of the music. It is a musical comedy, and as such the musicality must be an attractive prospect. The plot itself is brilliant, and does a lot of the storytelling, but the music fills in the time gaps with ease. The upbeat ...

Bon Jovi's Lost Highway returns home!

Advantages: Excellent sound, great concert
Disadvantages: None

...Bon Jovi - Live at Madison Square Garden sees the band returning home after performing all around the world on what was to be the biggest tour in the world in 2008. It was filmed in July 2008, on the last date of the tour, which was just a couple of weeks after I had seen them in concert here in the UK. Directed by Jon Bon Jovi's brother, Anthony Bongiovi and Brian Lockwood, the DVD was shot in high definition and surround sound. The set list includes ...
...serves as a great account of the bands 25 year career which still sees them hitting their peak when performing live. Bon Jovi Live At Madison Square Garden is currently available from Amazon priced at £9.98 new, which is a saving of £5.01 on the RRP of £14.99. ...

The best

Advantages: the toe-tapping beats

The all singing and dancing cast will smitten even the oldest of the viewers, and will get them tapping their toes along to songs such ...
...rhythm to dance to. High School Musical is a massive hit, so you can now buy it as basically anything- shower gel, jewelery, calenders, CD's, lampshades! The budget for the film was an outstanding $4,200,000, and every penny has gone to good use in this feel good film of the century. If you think this ones good, you have to watch the following two, High School Musical 2 and High School Musical 3: Senior Year! :) Reccomended to all families, especially ...
