VareKai - this show should go on and on!
Review of Varekai - Cirque Du Soleil by
amtallen
Advantages: Exciting, unusual, family show
Disadvantages: None
Varekai is another superb Cirque Du Soleil masterpiece. I took my family to this show in the Royal Albert Hall (Grandparents, Parents and kids aged 12 and 8) and they all thoroughly enjoyed the show. The show runs in London until 10th February so book now if you want to see something quite different but spectacular.
For people who have never been to one of Cirque's performances it is difficult to describe so here goes! Varekai is a beautiful combination ... ...Think of it as a very modern day circus style show with amazingly talented performers in breathtaking costumes with a specific theme throughout.
The set design is fantastic and based on the inside of a forest. The forest is made up of vertical bamboo sticks which soar into the Royal Albert's dome. The stage comes right out into the middle of the Hall and the view from the stalls is excellent. Through the show two singers gently support each scene ...

The movies have awesome music
Review of Classic FM At The Movies Vol.1 - Various Artists by
shamis4
Advantages: great 3 cd boxset with a variewty of great songs from awesome movies!
Disadvantages: hard to find a copy at the moment
...i have now purchased the Classic Fm at the movies: the sequel box set and the more recent ultimate collection of songs from the movies. I would recommend all 3, but would have to say that this one includes some of the more well known songs and films, but they are of course all extremely good!
Disc 1
1. Superman: The Movie - John Williams
2. Back to the Future - Alan Silvestri
3. Apollo 13 - James Horner
4. Star Wars - John Williams
5. The Mission ... ...a variety of songs from classic and more modern films all performed at an exceptionally high standard! Worth a place on the shelf of any film or music fan!
Price: I think this CD is not available at many stores ( i have looked on play and amazon and it is unavavilable) and it may been replaced by the new version: the Ultimate collection. However if you look around you may be able to locate it or if not then have a look on e bay - the prices are ...

Be Kind Rewind
Review of Be Kind Rewind - Jean Michel & Mos Def by
Scotteh2k8
Advantages: Laughable, Enjoyable, Great Actors
Disadvantages: Laggy in parts, disappointing ending
When I first saw this movie advertised in the cinema I knew it was a Must See movie. I just bought this on DVD and it is absolutely hilarious in many parts, especially the recreation of Ghostbusters and Rush Hour 2!
However the movie does have quite a few slow parts to it, and the ending was rather sudden and disappointing in my opinion, it didn't leave you with any answers so you are left guessing what happened afterwards.
It is however one of ...

The Best of Spider-Man!
Review of Spider-Man III - Various Artists by
doctorstrange
Advantages: Great songs to listen to!
Disadvantages: The mixture of songs could leave you saying 'what?'
Even though there is only one theme song within this album, the album doesn't live to disappoint. It also rewakens old songs such as the Chubby Checkers's Twist. It has songs that you can rock to and songs that will just give you goosebumps. My favourite song has to be Snow Patrol's Signal Fire because it just hits something in your heart that makes me weep. it does give me the thrill listening to each song and if you don't own this album, get it! ...

A perfect gift for Disney fans
Review of High School Musical II - Various Artists by
lostsins05
Advantages: For anyone who loves Disney and High School Musical
Disadvantages: Not for people who hate cheesy pop
The High School Musical 2 soundtrack is perfect for those who are a fan of Disney Films and especially fans of the High School Musical songs. The genre of the CD is definately verging on cheesy pop so, if your into music that isn't for the young and innocent minded then this isn't for you. However if you are into your pop music than i would suggest giving this CD a try or at least watch the movie as all the song a fully featured apart from Humuhumunukunukuapua'a ...
