Arabic singers often use and in Deb ("Heartbroken") Souad Massi shows she is mistress of this art, particularly when aided and abetted by the sinuous sound of the spike-fiddle. When the desert-dry timbre of the oud plus the Spanish guitar are added to the mixture, it becomes even more potent, but that's exactly what we have come to expect from this bewitching Algerian entertainer. Souad's background explains a lot: her musical education was classical, but she joined a flamenco band at 17; she loves both Western rock and traditional Arab instruments. You'd think all this would lead to a terrible mish-mash, but it's actually a winning combination. Sometimes the spotlight falls on Daniel Manzanas's cracked flamenco tones, sometimes on a quartet of violins and sometimes on the tambourine and tabla. But pervading everything is Souad Massi's irresistible voice, uniting East and West with wit and style. Heartbroken? Well, only up to a point... --Michael Church

Advantages: Light, fluffy entertainment Disadvantages: Very contrived
and lived to tell about it? apart from Amy that is. The two girls get on well and after their first encounter Lucy peruses Amy until the two end up falling for each other. The only problem is, with the whole world out to kill Lucy and the D.E.B.S out looking for ?kidnapped? Amy their time together is limited before they inevitably get caught and have to face the music?
D.E.B.S is something that I had never heard of up until last night, I stayed at a friends house after a night out and her brother happened to have this on DVD so a group of us decided to watch it, quite drunk hoping for a good laugh. This is the second lesbian film I?ve seen now so I?m starting to think that maybe my boyfriend should be worried!
D.E.B.S is a low budget, lesbian, teen version of Charlie?s Angels and although in every aspect it was dreadful I actually quite ...

Do you like action, romance and lots of comedy in a movie?

i saw that movie like a million times till now, i got it almost a year ago and since then i cant stop watching it...
i love it...
its very very interesting and it can teach you lots of things about like such as love, and that you cannot control it, whoever you are and whatever you do...
they said that D.E.B.S. could remind you Charlie's Angels, well it got a few similar parts but D.E.B.S. its a way better movie than Charlie's Angels.
well the story is:
A paramilitary academy called D.E.B.S. trains good looking, sexy girls to have the ability to lie, cheat, seduct and kill.
When they find out that Lucy Diamond a supervillan is back on the states after a long time hiding they live the job in the hand of the only squad ...

Advantages: cheap,ok film Disadvantages: not great
**** D.E.B.S. ****
This is very light film which is perfect to watch on a night in.Girls can watch the film and men can stare at the actresses.
**Plot**
The two main characters fall in love with each other but can't be together as they are supposed to be enemies.They say opposites attract and this appears to be true in this film.
**Cast**
Jordana Brewster plays Lucy Diamond one of the worst villains in the world.She leaves a trail of diamonds where ever she goes.
Sara Foster plays Amy Bradshaw.Otherwise known as miss goody two shoes,perfect.She goes to a school for agents where she learns how to catch people like Lucy.
Again like many other films i have reviewed the people in them are not that well known.
This was released on the 25 March 2005 (USA) and i think it is suitable for over 12s.I think it would come under ...
