Advantages: Excellent Features, Great Price Disadvantages: Quite Bulky
This phone is brilliant. I have had it since December 2006 and don't plan on changing my phone any time soon! I have never experienced a problem with my phone so far? so fingers crossed! There are so many features available on the phone (as below) which means you will struggle to find another phone as good as this one. The camera built-in is just as good as any standard digital camera, and prevents you having to carry two items around with you all the time. The price is completely justified as there is so much supplied with the phone? so you won't get bored quick. I find the phone easy to use and the menu layout is not complicated. I also find it easy to text with but those with larger" fingers may find it slightly difficult as the buttons are extremely close together. I do soemtimes end up pressing the internet shortcut button which ...
Advantages: Very creepy / atmospheric Disadvantages: Difficult to get hold of
Asian horror films have become very popular over the past few years. "Dark Water", "The Eye" and "The Ring" trilogy have caught the attention of horror fans all over the world, and made both film-makers and cinema-go'ers wake up to Asian film.
Some of these films have been re-made for Western audiences (The Ring, and Dark Water now in production), which perhaps is a tribute to the storymakers, but shows our lack of acceptance of foreign language films.
If you were fortunate enough to see the original "Ring", you will know that, whilst the American version is very good, the Japanese version is far superior.
"Phone" is a Korean movie along the same lines as "The Ring", and equally as scary !

Advantages: Brilliant performances,original script Disadvantages: slow and depressing
Two Lovers-directed and co-written by James Gray(We own the night) stars Gwyneth Paltrow, Joaquin Phoenix and Vinessa Shaw. I was anticipating this film,partly because it looked like a realistic romantic drama.
Leonard(Phoenix) is a middle aged guy living with his parents and is slightly lost in his life(partly because of the breakup with his long term girlfriend).Since he stays by himself all day,his parents want him to more of a family friend's daughter.Things get thicker when Leonard meets Michelle(Paltrow),who has recently moved to a flat in the same building.
The film essentially focusses on his feelings for both women and how their life progresses in that short span of time.The film is as complex as human relations are, and the story unfolds at its pace. The writing is not cliche and is more real in terms of its treatment ...
