Advantages: Cheap to buy
Disadvantages: Terrible special effects; weak plot

This film was originally released in 1983 and the makers tried to make it more exciting by using the then new "3-D" special effects. Hence the film did reasonably well at the box office as cinemas filled with people wearing silly red and green glasses. However, this novelty, which doesn't even work on the small screen, is its one redeeming feature. Not even the fact that Dennis Quaid is in it helps! The basic plot is that Michael Brody (Dennis Quaid) ...

Have the boys learned nothing about sharks?! However, the shark is actually a baby shark and it dies. A diver has also mysteriously gone missing.

...challenges my intellect, so when Vantage Point arrived on the scene and was supposedly "a slick, explosive thriller that builds to an exciting climax" (according to Heat magazine) I was more than intrigued. The all star cast only added to my interest in the film, with Matthew Fox (Lost), Forest Whitaker (The Last King of Scotland) and Sigourney Weaver all making an appearance. Did Vantage Point live up to my expectations and prove to be a captivating ...
...had never been attempted before. Vantage Point begins by showing the President getting shot whilst making a speech in Spain, and then replays the event through 8 different people's perspectives; without ever actually showing you what the person really saw. The cliff hanger ending of every characters scene keeps you guessing what happened and will constantly have your theory on the event changing. Each character differs immensely from the next and ...

Advantages: Authentic 70s style, fun heist
Disadvantages: Additional story lines for no apparent reason

...films, spying and heists and the like -this film definitely appealed. I thoroughly enjoyed both Snatch and Lock Stock and 2 Smoking Barrells and was interested to see how the work of Guy Ritchie's side-kick Roger Donaldson worked out. The storyline which involved photos of important people, including a royal family member and an important judge in compromising nuddy positions with sordid sorts was always going to be quite exciting. To remove these ...
...cockneys (3 if you include the lookout) led by the ape like Jason Statham. It sounds like fun already does it not! The heist is realistic and comes alive on the screen, despite Statham's distinct stiffness and chimp like features he pulls the part off well, even if t does feel a bit like one stage up from Phil Mitchell. The manipulating posh bird played bv Saffron Burrows returns from Morocco and is caught with drugs at customs and a friend in British ... Read review

...Buckley (Mrs. Jones) The story begins with Elliott Moore, a high school science teacher, who is discussing a newspaper article with his students relating to the unexplained disappearance of the planet's bee population. The lesson ends with him telling his students that any explanation given by scientists will probably only be a theory, that some things simply can't be explained by science. Shortly afterwards, there is a strange occurrence in Central ...
...will hang themselves, and as the strange phenomenon envelopes the entire city, people will be jumping off of buildings. The only explanation, once the government has concluded that they aren't dealing with terrorist attacks, is that the trees and plants are emitting some sort of chemical that affects the human brain, changing its self-preservation setting to that of self-destruction. Although Elliott Moore doesn't live in New York, he and his pal, ... Read review
