Burn baby burn!

Advantages: Some amazing dragons...wow!
Disadvantages: The Americanisms in the film...just no need!

I was looking forward to this fantasy/sci fi Dragon epic of a movie...and I wasn't disappointed! The premis of this film is a good one...whilst digging extensions to the tube lines, engineers discover a spherical object...that opens up a can of worms...or in this case a huge dragon!!! What follows is a rush through what happens when the dragons hatched and the world was taken over by them.... pages of newspapers from the battles and the loss of countries....which ...
...a hard and lean existence and hoping that when the dragons die off...their lives will be able to start again. The film has loads of action - the helicopter battles with the dragons are adrenalin pumped and full of energy. The settings for the film, dark, deolate and full of despair..the world looks a mess and is permanently scarred. It may prove impossible to repair this damege without firm discipline and realistic expectations. Christian Bale provides ...

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. ...

Mulder's Crusade for the truth continues

Advantages: Good actors
Disadvantages: Could have improved how the scenes were set out

...you feel are pivotal to the entire plot but I have tried to include information that are not relevant to plot and which you would find out in the beginning anyway. = I love the X-files; it is one of the best science fiction TV shows I have seen, there are two main characters which are FBI agents, Mulder and Scully. Mulder's crusade to find the truth is rooted from his childhood in which he believed his sister was abducted by aliens and ...
...to control Mulder's findings into the paranormal cases. The conflict between Mulder and Scully makes for good TV, as she struggles to find scientific answers to explain the incidents and Mulder will insist that his paranormal answers are correct. They have an extraordinary chemistry between them which is what partly makes the TV show successful. But in this film, it was a bit of a letdown due to my high expectations; if the TV show was incredible, ...

X Men 2 X2 sees the mutant mansion invaded by a William Striker who ...
...destroy all of them. Magneto is back with a scheme of his own that involves the death of all mankind. It's up to our mutant hero's to save the day. Better than the first, the individual character stories are more in-depth and special effects have been stepped up enough to make this a cracking comic book movie. Daredevil Daredevil sees a young Matt Murdock blinded as a child only to have his remaining senses functioning at increased levels enabling ...
