X-Men 2 (DVD And Fantastic Four Jonny Storm Watch

Advantages: Better action than some with story line
Disadvantages: slow in parts

If you love the first X-MEN then X-MEN2 is a must have, with less story building than the first this film has a lot more action - packed fun for all to love. There are a few slow parts in the film but overall its a must. the charachters realy start to evolve and if you were a fan of the cartoon then the end makes a lot more to you than if you just watch the film. Although you are left felling that they could have done more. E.g. Magneto (Lan Mckellen) ...
...four is again much like X-men 1 you have to wait for the best bits as the story building takes its time however its much more for the younger audience with its light humor and slightly cheesy punchlines however it is quit a good film for kids as it does not require you to concerntrate to long and if you miss bits of the film you can catch up with the plot later. A great xmas gift ...

X-Men

Advantages: A very good movie
Disadvantages: none

...idea of humans evolving into X-men is not, certainly, an unrealistic one, given the fact that we humans do have a long history of evolution. The movie starts by bringing us back to the Holocaust era, when Magneto first shows us a first hint of his powers, of his capacities to manipulate metals. It also gives us a fine insight of some of the series most important subjects, like Wolverine, Rogue, Storm, and Professor Xavier. This is only the first ...

The System is Perfect...Until it comes after you

Advantages: Good cast and storyline
Disadvantages: A tad too long

I'd caught sections of Minority Report when it had been on television - numerous times - but until last week I'd never actually seen it the whole way through. There were a couple of reasons for this with the firs being that normally I find the film is on late at night when I really want to settle down to sleep and two that the idea for the film isn't one that would normally interest me. I did think however it was probably about time I saw it and ...
...it a go. Minority Report like I have already mentioned stars Tom Cruise and is a sci-fi type film that was released in 2002. The year is 2054 and the base for the story is Washington DC which thanks to an outstanding technology that can identify killers before they even commit their crimes, has been free of murder for six-years. This technology and the unit that houses it is known as Precrime and is able to complete the job it does because of three ...

A.L.I.E.N. - AN OUTSTANDING MOVIE !

Advantages: IT DOESN'T GET BETTER THAN THIS
Disadvantages: NOTHING

...they can about the weird alien ship. But what they find is the stuff of nightmares. With a superb cast of; Sigourney Weaver ... Ripley John Hurt ... Kane Ian Holm ... Ash (My Precious) Tom Skerritt ... Dallas Veronica Cartwright ... Lambert Harry Dean Stanton ... Brett Yaphet Kotto ... Parker Soon the horror will spread throughout their ship and people will start to die OR WORSE! With acid for blood and a built in drive simply to reproduce, ...
...The opening of the alien egg and the crawling thing that emerges is ghastly, when it decides to give Kane (John Hurt) a big kiss you know things are about to get ugly very quickly. The crew are simply out of their depth and simply cannot cope with what is about to happen to them. Only 'Jones' the ships cat knows what is happening and he soon makes tracks for the escape pod. The film was darkly shot but that was to its advantage because unlike more ...
