Outstanding

Advantages: Amazing attention to detail in the game.
Disadvantages: n/a

...wouldn't even change those. The final epic fight between Cloud and a rememnent taking the form of sepheroth was absolutely outstanding. I was extatic throughout the entire movie. The storyline was wiked and closely follwed that of the game itself. Reno's appearence in the movie was one of a kind. This is a must watch film. ...

Review of Final Fantasy VII - Advent Children (Animated) (DVD)

a good sequel

Advantages: a very entertaining film
Disadvantages: gets a little boring

STORY Arriving back at earth after the battle with Khan, Admiral James T Kirk reflects upon the death of his friend Spock. But a visit from Spocks father reveals that Mcoy has Spocks living spirit. Is there a chance of saving spocks memories by retrieving Spocks body from genesis. But a klingon bird of prey hears about genesis. And starfleet refuses to let kirk return. So what will kirk do and what will the klingons do? VERDICT A very good sequel ...
...film, repeating spocks death and funeral was great and the musical score was done fabulously by James Horner who did the nusic for the second film. The model shots for the enterprise , the bird of prey and space dock are just amazing. The story is a little confusing if you haven't seen the second film or if your not a trek fan but its an enjoyable film. But points are deducted because most of the scenes after space dock were on the bridge of the ...

Review of Star Trek 3 - The Search For Spock (DVD)

The journey is what matters, not the destination

Advantages: A little series of such simplicity that makes you fall in love with the world again.
Disadvantages: Can be frustrating for its constantly changing perspectives.

...considered, I'm glad I did. Kino's Journey is a short series, consisting of only 13 episodes, and involves a young girl (although her gender is really difficult to tell in the beginning) travelling under the name of Kino, along with her talkative, Harley Davidson-styled motorrad named Hermes. Kino's journies take her through a number of "countries" in an Earth-like enviroment, her purpose being to find out about the different customs and cultures ...
...to another place. KINO'S TRAVELS What I really love about Kino's Journey is that it relies so much on subtlety to convey its message. There is no plot to speak of; rather the show relies on the vibes created by Kino's everyday life. Kino has a quiet and philosophical view of life, with no delusions of trying to change the world. Take Episode 3 where she arrives in a place that is expecting the end of the world to take place on the morning of her ...

Review of Kino's Journey Vol.1 (DVD)

A great movie that uncovers Tenchi's past

Advantages: You finally get to know what Tenchi's dead mother was like
Disadvantages: You won't really get all of it if you haven't seen the series

*BACKGROUND* There were three Tenchi series released, two of them were very similar, all of them were extremely funny and had gripping storylines. The main story is about two women, one is a princess and one is a space pirate and they both fight for Tenchi's love and the all have dark complex backgrounds which you gradually find out about as the series goes on. *THE FILM - STORYLINE* It is very deep and reveals a lot about Tenchi's father's and ...
...good plot and idea that Tenchi gets to meet his dead mother, even if you haven't seen the series you can realise the seriousness of it and how emotional it is for him. I do not want to reveal much more of the plot as it will ruin the surprises (of which there are many) for you. *TECHNICAL* The dubbing is very good; the characters voices suit them perfectly. You would probably think that it's been re-animated so that the characters mouth movements ...

Review of Tenchi Muyo - The Movie - Tenchi In Love (Animated) (Subtitled and Dubbed) (DVD)

You Look Like a Radioactive Tampon

Advantages: Great Direction and Acting
Disadvantages: Too Slow for some

Moon reminds me a lot of those big weighty Sci-fi films of the seventies where it was all about atmosphere, storyline and your imagination rather than riotous special effects and wise cracking aliens. This film is utterly beguiling, its tense but strangely relaxing, all of these is down to two men, the director Duncan Jones and the star Sam Rockwell. This is Jones' first feature film and its an incredibly impressive debut, he eschewed using his father ...
...it is a really fantastic film which is a credit to him. Starring Sam Rockwell as Sam, the only worker on an automated lunar mining complex. He has been working on his own for nearly three years and nearing the end of his term in space he feels lonely, isolated and confused....as anyone would, I imagine. With only a droid, Gerty (Voiced by Kevin Spacey) for company, Sam is alone and starts to feel a world apart from Earth, he feels he is alone but ...
