Advantages: A fun, well told family adventure Disadvantages: Underdeveloped characters. Understated ending.
when a young person comes of age and finds out the task they will be assigned within the city for the rest of their lives. The first part of the film sets the scene as both of the main protagonists settle into their jobs and further light is cast on the interrelationships with their nearest and dearest. Doon has a mechanical mind and yearns to work on the generator that serves as the heart beat of the city, and Lina, a gregarious people person, wants to be a messenger.
Neither initially gets the job they want (but they do manage to job such delightful careers as ?potato peeler? and ?mold scraper?), but they trade jobs ? with Doon taking up a position at the Pipeworks, and Lina getting her coveted messenger job. Lina lives with her younger sister Poppy and her senile grandmother, while Doon lives with his somewhat jaded and downtrodden ...
Advantages: Hilarious comedy, good viewing Disadvantages: only 3 episodes, expensive to buy whole set individually
Another installement to my DVD collection - the epic and classic comedy hero - Mr Bean. I love Rowan Atkinson, especially in Black Adder and also in the classic Mr Bean episodes. Despite my mood before hand, after watching Mr Bean I always feel much better, he always manages to intrigue my imagination with his biazarre mannerisms and abilty to turn the most straight forward of tasks into complete disaters!
Having not being able to buy the whollebox set I have had to purchase and review each DVD volume one by one.
This DVD contains 3 episodes, each with 3 or 4 sketches in them. All of whihc are brilliant and this DVD includes one of my favourites - the one where he goes to the swimming pool and clings to the diving board. The three episodes are entitled: Episode 1. 'The Curse Of Mr Bean', Episode 2. 'Mr Bean Goes To Town ...
Advantages: Looks nice, final chapter is impressive. Disadvantages: Lack of originality, entirely dull for most of running time.
Does Quentin Tarantino actually serve any kind of purpose? This question has been bothering me for a while, largely after the first Kill Bill, a film that annoyed me in a big way. I went into it expecting to enjoy it, and came out bored stupid after seeing two hours and what felt like badly assembled clips from other films. Looking back on his career, his trend is hardly a new one for him. Jackie Brown resembles a ton of 70s crime films. Reservoir Dogs is just a remake of Long hu feng yun, a 1987 Hong Kong film. Pulp Fiction appears to be his only original works, and deserves all of the praise that it gets. It's a stunning film. This aside though, there seems to be little point in what he does. Kill Bill Vol2 is no exception to this rule.
This is the point where I'd usually write a paragraph detailing the plot ...
