The last in the Star Trek movie series... so far

Advantages: The 'Next Generation' crew all return
Disadvantages: Poor storyline

The 10th film in the STAR TREK movie series, NEMESIS is also the final one to date, and is the 4th to feature the 'Next Generation' crew, led by Captain Picard, played by Patrick Stewart. The film sees a Romulan clone of Picard's, called Shinzon, seek revenge and threaten the destruction of the Federation with a powerful new weapon. Shinzon is played by Tom Hardy, most recently seen as Bill Sikes in BBC's new adaptation of OLIVER TWIST, broadcast ...
...Kirk's nemesis in the second Star Trek movie, but unfortunately the character comes across simply as virtually a pantomime villain. Patrick Stewart and the rest of the regular cast perform admirably in the face of a poor script, and the character progression that Data has gone through in the previous films is taken to its final conclusion in a scene which (although I won't spoil it here) had me shouting at the screen that the filmmakers would make ...

Review of Blake's 7 - Series 3 - Complete (DVD)

The Truth Is Still Out There

Advantages: The Two Parter Episodes
Disadvantages: To much about Mulders Sister

...by Chris Carter (creator of the X files). In this season Mulder and Scully have been reassigned and are not longer part of the X Files. The saeson revolves around a women called Cassandra Spencer, a women who calims to have been abducted the same night as Mulders sister. She claims of an alien threat. This season i really enjoyed. Even though most of the season is whithin a signal storyline, there is still some episodes with Mulder and Scully investigateing ...
...opinoin is a really good way to watch the X files. The seasons still looks deeper in Mulders sister's abduction which can get very aggravating after six seasons. But apart from this, the season is very enjoyable and would be a must have for anyone who enjoyed the earlier seasons. ...

Review of The X-Files - Series 6 - Complete (DVD)

Sometimes, Ignorance is bliss

Advantages: clever thriller, good story, well acted
Disadvantages: bit depressing?

Dont misunderstand my review title, this is a cracking film. You can nearly always say that about Nicolas Cage films, but this one really is! The premise is simple. There are many disasters happening on earth, for some reason, aliens decide to warn mankind about the upcoming disasters by "whispering" them to a little girl in the 1950's. Unfortuneately, that girl does nothing with the information other than write it down on a bit of paper and allow ...
...capsule. The capsule is dug up in the current day and discovered by Nicolas Cage's character. He soon discovers the code in the series of numbers written on the page and works out that the code tells of impending disasters, when they will happen, how many will die and the location. The story continues on along this path, with a worrying fortelling of the end of days. We don't know what will happen right until the end. I wont ruin it for you either, ...
