Review of 2 Fast 2 Furious DVD by billy1970

Advantages: good film to watch
Disadvantages: no real story that holds you watching

2 fast 2 furious is obviously the folow on from the movie fast and furious, to completely understand the storyline you are better off watching the first film before watching this one but if you just want to watch this one you will still be able to enjoy it as the storyline isnt hard to follow. Paul Walker returns in this film as the police officer Brian Oconner who has been stripped of his badge, he teams back up with ex con Tyrese as he takes the ...
...transport a shipment of dirty money for a dodgy miami based importer/ exporter. During all of this he is actually working under cover for mendes to bring vernon down in an attempt to get his job in the police force back, to see if he suceeds you will have to watch the film. This is an action film that will appeal to any boy racer or car enthusiast out there, the story line to this film isnt brilliant but the acting is good and is a good way to pass ... Read review

Long.... very long
Review of Alexander (Director's Cut) by shazzy1967

Advantages: Colin gets naked
Disadvantages: far to many to mention!

...been told so well. Alexander was great, we know that, but this story goes no way into telling us the conquest of Egypt, the history of the man in this country- his greatest conquest - and the story of the bits in between. All it really showed was the beginning and the end... there seemed to lack a middle? Overly long and very lost! But I think that's Oliver Stone's films in general really! ... Read review

Better but still bad
Review of Anacondas: The Hunt For The Blood Orchid DVD by homer__21

Advantages: More realistic Snakes achieved with CGI rather than foam rubber as in the original
Disadvantages: Lacks originality or suprise, each turn of events is as predictable asa ticking clock

Anyone who watches the original film nowadays will notice how outdated the effects are and in this area the sequel has succeeded. The CGI representations of the snake are much scarier and less comical than the originals' props. But good graphics can't save this film from it's sub standard plot line and predictable events, zero to hero fisherman and the deaths of most of the cast are all too familiar in films like this ('deep blue sea' or the third ...
...and are just looking for a laugh then this film is good for a bit of action and giggling when you see a man swallowed whole by a rediculously sized snake or watch with bated breath another snake bares down upon a paralised man. In short watch once but never again, probably more enjoyable to younger viewers (12-16). ... Read review

Unlucky 13
Review of Assault On Precinct 13 DVD by pdoyle007

Advantages: Fast action
Disadvantages: cliched

This movie stuck me a bit of a saturday night no-brainer when I saw it in the shop and so I snatched it up and settled in for a night of unrealistic violence and bravado. I have never seen the original 'Assault on Precinct 13' but I know enough about it to recognise that the premise of this film follows it quite closely. On a snowy New Years Eve a police precint (13) is being closed down and the staff moved to a newer more modern facility. The only ...
...who are looking forward to a quiet night and New Years party in work. Sergeant Roenick (Ethan Hawk) is in charge for the night and he is a former undercover agent who is recovering from a leg wound he took on a botched mission where he lost his team. Jasper (Brian Dennehy) is a old cop from the old skool and ironically this is to be his last day before retirement (cliche #1). Completing the staff is Iris (Drea de Matteo) the slutty secretary who ... Read review
