iRobot, a action packed film, with both humor and story to it.

Advantages: Good acting, good sound effects, and good other special effects, action packed.
Disadvantages: is a little long

I really did enjoy this film, so much so I watched it three times. As i first watched it at quite a young age i didn't fully understand the story. However on the second time of watching it I just understood and it the end all made sence and became clear. This film really was action packed yet somehow they also manged to fit both humor, a love story and a great plot that was unexpected. I have always loved Will Smith as a actor and I feel he did ...
...realtioship with the other main charcter when I watched it the second and third time. I thought it was amazing, that you got to see how different he was when talking to he's Granma conpared to when he was talking to he's boss, friends and girlfriend. And to see how bad he felt and why he did feel so bad. Also why he had such a strong dislike against the robots. Overall I would recomd watching this film, as I would recomd most of the films Will ...

Review of I, Robot (DVD)

All that waiting for this!!!

Advantages: Graphics
Disadvantages: Everything else

Alien versus Predator Whoever wins we lose. Even the snappy subtitle starts some contraversy. As we have seen from Predator 1 all that was needed to kill a predator was one man. Ok it was arnold schwarzenegger but we could just get him again with some of his mates to kill three. As for the aliens there are about 10 of them so nothing really to be scared of if they win 10 aliens is not enough to defeat the human race. With this title without having ...
...like CG in Predator and Alien 1. The aliens look very realistic, if you have ever seen an alien in real life before, and all the weapons of the predators look great too even the costumes are advanced from the originals in Predator. However I have to talk about the negatives. You are going to be here for a long time! Firstly I am utterly disappointed that this movie was only a 15. This limits the amount of gore you actually see and in my view sort ...

Review of Alien Vs Predator (Special Edition) (DVD)

One ugly motherf***ing film"

Advantages: Potential of story.
Disadvantages: Everything else.

...joking, either. I mean Alien Resurrection was bad, but AVP is even below that level. The characters are lame, the acting cringe-worthy, and the PG rating is just a pathetic attempt at persuading younger audiences to hit the cinema and make more money for the corporate whores within the FOX network. With very little violence or gore, even the much anticipated alien vs predator fight is a huge disappointment. The only ever-so-slightly saving grace ...
...everything we loved about the Alien and Predator franchises within the space of one hour fifty mins. Oh, and there was the small issue of the Alien 5 project been completely dead and buried after Aliens Vs Predator was given the green light to be made. Talk about a kick in the teeth. I'm going to go cry now. (C) Andy Carrington, 2009 [as part of www.andycarrington.co.uk] ...

Review of Alien Vs Predator (DVD)

Have we gone too far?

Advantages: A difficult topic that teaches as you watch
Disadvantages: Very little in the way of extras and no 5.1

I first saw this boxset languishing in the bargain bins at my local Morrisons for a fiver so, intruiged by the synopsis and not having satellite TV where it was originally shown, I stumped up the cash and prepared myself for over 10 hours of 'Genetic Crime Investigation'.The North American Biotechnology Advisory Commission (NorBAC), a taskforce created using the greatest minds in their respective fields from Mexico, North America and Canada, is used ...
...in genetics.  Under the supervision of David Sandstrom (Peter Outerbridge - Lucky Number Slevin, Cold Creek Manor) the taskforce investigate the fields of biotechnology, bio-terrorism and nanotechnology as well as the often maligned world of cloning.The show contains a lot of information regarding its main theme and can sometimes leave your head reeling in frustration, but on the whole it sets out to explain such a complex field in laymens terms ...

Review of ReGenesis - Series 1 (DVD)

Sky Captain or Why Captain?

Advantages: Clever story.plot and cleverly filmed
Disadvantages: Not particularily well acted and a bit strange to say the least

This is a strange film in my opinion, it comes out well presented and has some good cast members, The story is also quite innovative and provides enough intrigue to keep you going to the end of the film. The film though is a bit stretched and doesn't really seem to Stick together too well. It's basically about an almost reluctant hero that flies around in what i can only describe as a world war 2 antique and yet by the end of the film you get to ...
...that is home to one miss Jolie. There seems to be a lack of consistency throughout as to the abilities of some of the objects such as the plane etc and the acting is very dull and predictable in places, verging onto tedious. The film is watchable but there are much better films around. Unless you are a big fan of slightly odd/strange films or members of the cast i wouldn't waste money on this myself. ...
