intelligent use of cutting-edge popular (and we are using that term in its broadest sense) music on film, deservedly cracking onto critical lists for the best releases of that year, period. The contemplative thriller's setting at the end of the millennium is answered by a remarkable repertory of artists including Talking Heads, Neneh Cherry, Lou Reed, Elvis Costello, REM, Nick Cave and The Bad Seeds, Patti Smith, Jane Siberry with k.d. lang, T-Bone Burnett, Daniel Lanois and U2, a de facto dream team. Nearly all these performances were unheard at the time of release, and beyond the evident marquee lustre there is an underlying cohesion to the sense of yearning that prevails. Both Cave and U2 build powerful songs around the title theme, Elvis offers a brilliant Ray Davies cover, and the Siberry/lang classic, "Calling All Angels", summarises the spiritual underpinnings of this thoroughly modern, ultimately timeless classic in film music. --Sam Sutherland

again in this the second outrageous collection of Garth Ennis and Steve Dillon's provocative and irreverent Preacher stories. This time the man looking for God meets the family from Hell and comes face-to-face with his own dark and twisted kinfolk. Since merging with the half-angelic half-demonic being called Genesis Custer has a voice that must be obeyed. But now -- just when he and gun-toting girlfriend Tulip need it most -- it seems the power has deserted him!

Neill, Solveig Dommartin, William Hurt and a ragtag group in pursuit around the world and back again. Though set in 1999 under the shadow of impending disaster as a wobbly nuclear satellite threatens to Chernobyl the planet, the leisurely gait of their worldwide escapades has a distinctly 1940s-era decadence. The ultimate object of their quest is a machine that records visual information from one person and reconstructs it in the brains of others--granting the miraculous power of sight to the blind for one thing, but even more mystically, enabling a person's dreams to be recorded. When the film seeks resolutions on the most intimate questions of the human soul which dovetail with the possibility of a destroyed world, the film is hampered by the VHS running time, which subtracts several hours from other versions. But numerous joys, not least among them Jeanne Moreau and Max von Sydow as Hurt's parents, inhabit this thought-provoking film. --Alan E. Rapp, Amazon.com

Pirates of the Caribbean at Worldend is the third movie in the Pirates trilogy. It follows the crew of the Black Pearl (the Pirate ship) rescuing Jack Sparrow from Davy Jones' locker and then preparing to fight the East Indian Trading Company who are intent on extinguishing piracy. I'm not going to spoil the rest of the plot/movie for you as I believe you should see it for yourself so I will just now review the rest of the DVD and what I thought of the film/films.
At the box office it was actually the most successful film of 2007 and is the second most successful film in the series. I think even if action and adventure films aren't for you (they aren't my most favourite) this would still be a film you like as it is very funny in places, the sets are brilliant and the action really is very well choreographed. My one complaint with it ...
Advantages: To be completely honest, nothing. Disadvantages: Not the same 'Pirates' we knew and loved
actually come together, it actually did come together well and had me so tense at the end it made me rush to go watch the trailer for 'WorldsEnd' on YouTube. And World's End looked like there was no way it could not be as spectacular as it looked. So you know exactly what has happened.. the worries of Jack Sparrow (Johnny Depp) actually being dead, gone straight out of the window. Then again, I guess they were never going to kill off their main character / money spinner.
What can always be a nussaince when you are essentially leaving a movie on 'to be concluded' can be that typically you won't watch the second part to the story until a time in the future when you may have forgotten what actually happened in the previous part. My only memories of the previous film really were Elizabeth Swann (Keira Knightly) having a rocky relationship ...
Advantages: Great Food in classy surrpoundings at good prices Disadvantages: Nothing major
Where and What is The World's End?
***********************
The World's End - or TWE as they brand themselves - is described as a 'Bar, Restaurant and Rooms'. It's located in the village of Ecton, just off the A4500 between Northampton and Wellingborough in the East Midlands.
Two years ago we relocated from Suffolk to Northamptonshire and have been hunting for a good place to eat out ever since. In a region where most of the options are pub food that struggles to rise above the truly mediocre, I think we might have found a new favourite.
How I discovered The World's End
*****************************
An old friend called to invite me for dinner in July and as he was staying in one of the hotel rooms at TWE, we agreed to meet there and check out the menu. I was so impressed that I went back last week with my husband and a friend ...
