Don't be Suckered
Review of The Hoax DVD by afy9mab

Advantages: It's intersting to see Gere playing against type and Molina is as dependable as ever.
Disadvantages: Pedestrian direction and writing and a film without a genre.

...and his publishers are on the brink of dropping him. Then he decides to write a bogus official biography of notorious billionaire recluse Howard Hughes. According to him, Hughes wants a million dollar advance and will only communicate with the publishers through Irving. Surprisingly the company falls for his scam. However, news of the book sparks a media feeding frenzy and Irving has to move fast to stay one step ahead of the pack. Director Lasse ...
...this based-on-fact tale. He lacks the eye for detail and the cynicism required to make this a biting satire of the celebrity-hungry media. Instead it plays out as more of a muted caper where Irving has to go to increasingly ridiculous lengths to stay ahead of the game. Sadly the film doesn't have quite enough gloss or sparkle to excel in this area. Truth be told, the production values make it look like a made-for-TV movie. The film stock is grubby ... 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.

Are you ready for a football ruck? ?
Review of Football Factory DVD by jack1foord

Advantages: A very strong film and leaves you thinking.
Disadvantages: Storyline could be better.

...is a film based on football hooliganism, this film mainly focuses on the sides Headhunters, who support Chelsea F.C., and the Bushwackers, who support Millwall F.C. Throughout the film the headhunters fight with other football firms, these include Tottenham Hotspur F.C., Liverpool F.C., and Stoke City F.C.. The film mainly focuses on "Tommy johnson" who is a hooligan in his late 20's who is looking at his life, and thinking is this what he really ...
...due to the better structured storyline. So if you like Football factory should defiantly give Green street hooligans a go. However this is a good British football hooligans film which has a very strong message, and shows many emotions, and wants your wanting more. cheers 5/5 ... Read review

A Bit Of A Drag
Review of The Nines DVD by GoFigure

Advantages: Interesting concept - supernatural feel to it.
Disadvantages: Drags halfway.

...intertwining at unsettling intervals with the number nine looming menacingly in all their lives. 'The Nines', as you will already have guessed after seeing that the actors play different roles, is all about the same characters regardless that they possess different names, jobs and lives. You could say, in a way, that all these lives are being played out at the same time. The interesting part is that these lives intertwine and overlap, leaving the ...
...Unable to tell you what the story is about without giving the plot away, suffice it to say that 'The Nines' is a good mixture of sci-fi and fantasy, and although it may appear at times to be 'supernatural'… it isn't. The movie is divided into three parts with the main actors taking on different roles in each part. The first part is about an actor who is under house arrest after having unintentionally set fire to his ex's house. Unable to leave the ... Read review
