Advantages: Rivetting, dark Drama Disadvantages: None for me as a CSI fan.
CSI started out with CSI: Vegas, and this is the 2nd spin off from that.
The main difference with this compared to the other 2 programs is that it is undeniably darker in tone, grittier and gloomy.
You soon find out that the lead CSI is a no-nonsense First Grade Detective Mac Taylor played by Gary Sinise.
Mac is a former Marine from Chicago, and he is a someone who works to the rules, but has little time for bureaucracy, which can cause him problems with his superiors. But his ability in the field and leadership quality is such that he is tolerated. His attention to detail is second to none and it pays off a number of times. This quality to details is also something he presses his staff to maintain.
The rest of the team comprise of Stella Bonasera (Melina Kanakaredes) who is undeniably about the closest friend Mac has in ...
Advantages: Excellent selection and performance of piano works by Frank Bridge Disadvantages: A few pieces are not very interesting
Frank Bridge was an early twentieth century English composer. His works are not widely known, but are played increasingly, and more recordings are becoming available.
Some of his later works, such as his piano sonata, were influenced by Scriabin. This CD is the second of three, and covers a wide range of styles, but mostly in his earlier style.
Most of the pieces on this CD are fairly easy to listen to, and can be enjoyed by the majority of classical music lovers.
The opening piece, Etude Rhapsodique, is an etude appropriately played by Jacobs, in the grand manner (of Liszt and other nineteenth century virtuosi), full of late nineteenth century panache, but with Bridge's own distinctive voice.
The second piece, Berceuse, is played beautifully, a gentle piece as the name would suggest (a lullaby) but again with Bridge's own ...
Advantages: Great music, engaging story Disadvantages: Not one for the faint-hearted
classic Tarantino, the dialogue is sharp but also a tad on the surreal side. It sounds script like, but very natural, if that makes sense. It's such a fun film, although it is very bloody and gory, it's never serious, and the script reflects that. The acting is great, with everyone playing their roles well. The action is intense and very well done, with music kept at a minimum so you can hear every bone cracking and every stab with the blade.
The music is superb. Quentin Tarantino always knows the perfect music to go with his films, and this is no exception. Combining soft soulful music with contemporary Japanese pop, it's a very eclectic mix but works very well together. And even Ennio Morricone makes an appearance, his song "Death Rides a Horse" is used when The Bride and O-Ren Ishii (Lucy Liu) are staring each other out. The song reminds ...
