Krulle Bol - This Is The Kit

Poetry attempt number 2 - Krull is great

Advantages: Fantastic storyline, soundtrack, characters and fantasy setting
Disadvantages: Looks dated now

the sun rises before they get there, The fortress will move, so they need Firemares. Firemares like horses can move very fast, But these horses fly too, but Rell must stay for alas, It is his time to die, though he is not sick, He tells the gang to go on, and let him die quick. Once at the fortress the Slayers block the way, But a hero has come to save the day. Rell has arrived and helps in the fight, But he doesn’t survive, the vision was right. Inside the fortress the climax draws near, Colwyn looks for Lyssa, and the rest hide in fear. The slayers close in, and Colwyn needs the Glave, He finds Lyssa and the Beast in a central cave. Can the Glave kill the Beast, will they all escape ? Rent the DVD, a choice you do well to make. A great film this is, with a great soundtrack too, It may be an oldie, but it’ ...

Review of Krull (DVD)

This is England.... apparently!

Advantages: Dark, gritty & enthrawling
Disadvantages: A bit slow at times

This Is England is the very successful British drama released 27th April 2007. It?s rated 18 as it contains extremely strong language, violence & racism. This Is England runs for approximately 101 minutes. It had a budget of £1,500,000 & grossed an estimated $8,069,240 at the box office.

This is England

Advantages: Thomas Turgoose, British, nostalga, powerful, thought provoking
Disadvantages: Depressing

Being a "Skinhead Movie" it is inevitable that This is England gets compared to American History X. Whereas Shane Meadows' epic portrayal of 1980s Britain isn't as much a social commentary about racism and how to overcome it as American History X is, it does, however, provide the perfect mix of nostalgia, individual insecurity, and violent bigotry that makes This is England a personal and powerful experience best approached with your grandmother's old English hanky. What a weird and wonderful era the 1980s was in Britain. If you're fortunate, or unfortunate, enough to remember a time when Roland Rat and Maggie Thatcher ruled our televisions then you'll find yourself bathing in a mix of nostalgic excitement and/or restraining yourself from smashing the TV to a pulp with the film's opening montage. This sets the menacing air ...
