Love, the Atlantian way

Advantages: Another brilliant season from Atlantis
Disadvantages: it has to end at some point

.... . . ---What is Stargate Atlantis?--- Put simply, SG Atlantis is a spin off of the incredibly successful Series Stargate SG-1, which is a spin-off of the movie Stargate (confused yet?) The movie centres around the discovery of what they call the Stargate. The Stargate is a huge ring with nine pretty little pictures on it. It works like an old telephone in that you choose your numbers (the pretty pictures), hit dial and the ring spins and what ...
...it, I congratulate you! Stargate SG-1 expands on the idea that life on earth was not started here. It was, in fact, brought here by an extremely advanced alien race. This race happened to be a tad on the evil side and used humans as slaves and carriers for their young (slithery snake type things) as was touched on in the movie. How do they bring it back without ruining the movies ending? Simple! They discover that there is more than one destination. ...

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 ...

movie that changed my childhood

Advantages: is a collectors item and a classic all time special
Disadvantages: old movie with apaling special effects

this movie was one of the first i ever owned on vhs as a child, i watched it over and over about 100 times. Its extremely funny as the combination of will smith that plays a very funny character and his partner the serious stereotypical FBI agent looking. The two characters end up having a very deep connection as they both work together and experience life at great risk fighting aliens. The movie also has parts of romance in it where another face ...

Serenity, highly under rated!

Advantages: Funny, action packed, fast paced
Disadvantages: Never to be seen again

...always littered with techno jargon. Serenity proves that it can be enjoyed by anyone. The relationships amongst the crew are acted out fantastically and you do feel for certain characters at times of tragedy. For those who love big explosions, this does not disappoint. The battle with the reavers is intense. I did feel however that the film tried to have too much in it in terms of wrapping up major storylines. It was all done excellently but it ...
...either another series or another movie in order to do the characters justice. For example, the character of Book. Throughout the show you get hints that there is more to him that meets the eye. With more air time, his story would have been more complete, but now you are just left wondering As for the extras, they are very funny. You feel a true sense of friendship amongst the cast which reflects so well on screen. It's just a shame it is only being ...

The best of the best

Advantages: Ground breaking special effects
Disadvantages: It had to end... I was gutted!

...think this is the best Star Trek film ever made? Why can I still remember most of the words to the film? Why would I recommend this film to you without reservation....read on! 1. This is an excellent example of a tv series to movie cross over. The readmission of a character from the original series was a genius move. 2. We see the Enterprise going to warp in two different ways, the latter paving the way for future warp speeds! 3. The crew have great ...
...his trust for all things Star Fleet, I cannot tell you how many times I have shouted at the screen ' just raise your shields NOW!!!' 6. We get to see GENESIS and it is great to see that we have the scientific know how to develop such a device, particularly when all we have seen of the future tech is a range of colourful screens and buttons - this can actually make a planet habitable! 7. This film employed amazing CGI work - It is rumoured that the ...
