Look into the future what do you see?

Advantages: Easy watching
Disadvantages: Can be over acted

...provides a great insight to the life of a teenager in a world full of chaos and destruction. It made me think if this ever happened in our somewhat war riddlede world how the children from todays society would cope. I for one would think that there would be a lot more violence than is portrayed in this first series. It is for easy viewing and has addictive yet predictable plot lines. With excellent make-up and costumes this programme is very visually ...
...life is now like after the deadly virus kills all of the adult population. The city is now in utter chaos as the kids now battle for control of their new world. It also provides excellent insight to the stuggle of setting up a new society of rules and order. Will everybody be willing to accept? The opening scene takes us to see the not yet existent "good guys" tribe mall rats characters. This which i thought was a great foundation for getting to ...

The English Guy is the Hero!!!

Advantages: Classic Action/Fantasy Flick
Disadvantages: Strangely Short via Obvious Edits

...twinge to his accent, plays the hero and saviour in this film! Even more surprising considering the film also stars Val Kilmer who's your typical American-Good Looking-Action Hero. Not in this film however, as he adopts the macabre and unstable character of Montgomery. Amongst quite a well known cast, including: Fairuza Balk and Ron Perlman as well as Temeura Morrison. (If you don't know these guys, you've certainly seen them - type them in on www.imdb.com ...
...varied stages of success, on the road to the "perfect" human. What is so special about Brando's performance, is that he adopts a classic British accent. (I say, old chap), and it's simply impeccable. You literally forget he's American, especially after early performances as Stanley Kowlaski in "A Streetcar Named Desire" in 1951, where he plays a lower-class New Yorker! You've all recently heard Johnny Depp's British accent, from the like of "Pirates ...
