Reilly - Ace Of Spies (Box Set)

Advantages: Excellent, superb acting by Damon.
Disadvantages: Choppy timeline.

...First, I apologize for the repost. I placed this film review under the wrong movie! (The one directed by Lewin Webb). Although, I am not too sure it was my error... I am reposting under the correct movie (by Robert De Niro) and Ciao has the director listed as "Robert de Vico"... ??? What the... Anyway, the review: Many of the trailer’s market this as a great “Spy” movie and many viewers walk away upset, claiming that the movie is not at all like the ‘Coming Attractions’ would have them believed. I must agree, this is indeed the case; however, my response to this would be to ask, when are the ‘Coming Attractions’ ever accurate? If, for whatever reason, I was expecting to see a movie similar to the British miniseries, “Reilly: Ace of Spies” (1983) in which we get to see dramatizations of missions and adventures, or the inner struggle...

...John Cleese (Basil Fawlty) Prunella Scales (Sybil Fawlty) Andrew Sachs (Manuel) Connie Booth (Polly) This tv series is set in a hotel in Torquay called 'Fawlty Towers'.

Advantages: extremely funny
Disadvantages: there isnt any

...Ace Ventura is my favorite fiulm starring Jim Carrey. This is a very very funny film, i like it so much that i have watched it about 20 times and i never get sick of the humour. my favorite part of the film is when ace is in the police station and he starts to talk out of his butt to get his friends attention. It is typical Jim Carrey comedy. The plot of the story is ace ventura is a pet detective and it a fortnight before the superbowl. the dolphins masscot snowflake, the dolphin, is stolen and ace ventura being a petdetective sets out to find the dolphin so it can perform at the superbowl. This film is comedy all the way and has a great twist in the story near the end when they find out who has actually kidnapped snowflake. a very funny film i recommend it to anyone although it is rated 12....
