Happy Together (1989)

Could Be Better

[26 July 1999]

Have to be honest, it's not the best film I have ever seen, but the film does have it's moments. I have seen Helen Slater act better in other films than this and the storyline is totally unbelievable. The film is basically about a boy meets girls, girls helps boy do better in life, boy and girl get mad with each other etc you get the picture. Bottom line, if you have a couple hours to kill, go ahead and watch it

House Party 3 (1994)

House Party is Better

[10/10 · 31 March 1999]

House Party 3 to me was a disapointment. The jokes, just weren't there. The only character that is really funny is Uncle Vester. Shame as the first two films were great. My advice is just stay with the first film.

Star Trek: Voyager (1995–2001)

I beg to differ

[12 January 1999]

Star Trek: Voyager is growing from strength to strength. I must admit that the first season of Voyager was pretty poor, or it could be me because I such a TNG fan that I was expecting the same. Now into season 4 the show is really good. The episodes "Scorpion" 1&2 were bloody fantastic! I can clear seen why the producers introduced the character 'Seven Of Nine', sex-appeal, but I'm not complaining. I would hope that Voyager had stayed in Borg space for a little while longer though and see some more action space fights, which we all love, because these are the episode that are remember the most. The characters in ST:VOY are good. The Doctor is great, as is Tuvok, but Neelix and Janeway can get a bit on your nerves. Just one question though, "How many Shuttle craft has Voyager got?" Call about the Nitpick of the year. Don't expect ST:VOY to be like TNG or DS9, if you do, you will disappointed. ST:VOY is original in it's own right and should be praised for that.

Kelly's Heroes (1970)

A Good Laugh

[12 November 1998]

When I first saw 'Kelly's Heroes' I was expecting a serious war film, but this film turned out to be more of a comedy; which was brillant. I found the film very funny and Donald Sutherland was a gem. His character 'Oddball' gets all the good lines and laughs as his character portray a hippy, calling people "Baby", which is unheard of in 1940's. The plot is very straight forward and the acting etc you don't really think about because you are listening out for the next line. I recommend this film to anyone who wants a good laugh.

House of Games (1987)

Kept Me Guessing Till The End

[28 September 1998]

This movie is very well written and directed, twists here and twists there. It kept me guessing until the end. Joe Mantegna, who played the character 'Mike' was excellent, something tells me that Joe like to play this character. In my opinion, it's worth seeing!

Event Horizon (1997)

If you are an 'Alien' fan; you love this film!

[10 September 1998]

The special effects, visuals and music are excellent. the story is a bit strange, but if you love films like "Alien", then you are to be sure you'll like this film; I did. If you want to get the film on video etc, make sure the format is widescreen.

Glengarry Glen Ross (1992)

One of *the* best films in cinema

[10/10 · 10 September 1998]

Glengarry Glen Ross is to me one of cinemas' greatest films ever made. Supera acting and script, to me this film is more of a comedy than a drama. The language is brilliantly written, makes me laugh everytime I watch the film. Not to be watched by people who are easily offended, because there is a lot of language.
