A Midsomer Night's Allen
Review of Cassandra's Dream DVD by afy9mab

Advantages: I'm struggling to think of any...
Disadvantages: Apalling direction, writing and acting.

Brothers Ian and Terry get themselves into serious financial difficulties. So they turn to their rich Uncle Howard for help. He promises to pay off Terry's gambling debts and bankroll Ian's new property deal in return for a favour. The pair agrees even though the cost of their financial security is another man's life. Killing someone isn't as easy as they thought, even if his death will save a family member from ruin… There was a time when everyone ...
...shine in one of his sharp Manhattan comedies. How times have changed; as he gets older his tastes appear to be changing for the darker. But that's not necessarily a good thing. His last thriller "Match Point" was a serviceable, but far from original take on the genre and this outing is far less accomplished. Allen said he likes shooting in Britain because the grey skies give good light, but I suspect he's been watching too many soap operas while ... Read review

Closing The Ring - Barton Shines
Review of Closing The Ring DVD by cali_rose

Advantages: Romantic, touching, interesting story, great performance by Barton
Disadvantages: Cried to much, involved with the IRA makes it very dark places

As a fan of Mischa Barton I was excited to see, this romantic but traumatic tear jerker of a film, which switches been 1941 and 1991. The film starts at a funeral of the main characters late husband and is not interested in saying goodbye to the man that she was married to for 50 years, but she has a secret that she has kept for over 50 years. The story then changes to early 1990's Ireland in the middle of the IRA's campaign. I found this part of ...
...that pieces together the events of 1941 and 1991. The film then goes back to 1941 with the story of how the ring got to Ireland and the tale of three boys in love with the same girl and how it ended, with a marriage and death and a hidden wall. The story is sad at sometimes, I went through half a box of tissues as I cried so much and the closure of the main character, brings that they can be hope after war and people need to time to mend. I would ... Read review

House MD Series 1
Review of House MD Season 1 (DVD) by Dexter55

Advantages: Gripping, engaging story lines
Disadvantages: Can't think of any!

I've just finished watching House Series 1 on DVD, having come to this series late in the day. Each episode is like a self contained medical detective story. House is a great character, irascible and difficult to work with but forgiven for this because of his great intelligence and snippets of compassion that peek through. The ongoing game of one-up-manship with the hospital administrator adds spice. The story lines are good and production values ...
...an impression of what is happening inside the body, both with treatment and with illnesses. Hugh Laurie is a convincing American.The supporting cast provides a nice mix of characters and the more you watch the more you learn about their backgrounds, so their back histories unfold bit by bit. Great theme tune too! I watched 4 episodes back to back so you can tell how much I love it! ... Read review

ONE TREE HILL
Review of One Tree Hill - Series 5 (Box Set) by DixieChick10

Advantages: great show, actors.
Disadvantages: bit too dramatic.

...At the time that One Tree Hill came out, one of its biggest rivals was fellow teen show The OC and I have to admit I was a bigger fan of The OC than One Tree Hill, but the ratings for One Tree Hill must have been a lot better, as The OC was cancelled and One Tree Hill is currently in it's fifth season and lately I have been watching re-runs and the current series and really enjoying it. Here is why. The Plot When the show first started it ...
...McFadden or Mouth. He is one of Lucas' oldest friends from the River Court, and commentated on the basketball games in high school.
