The Hole (2001)
chilling well made film
It's good to see a British film like this like his previous film Nick
Hamm has cast an American in the lead role but unlike Monica Potter in
Martha meet Frank Daniel and Laurence, Thora Birch is playing a British
girl and she does a wicked accent.
She is a fantastic actress and excellent here a very dark character a
long way of from the little happy girls she played in films such as
hocus pocus.
Don't want to give much away but this is a well made chilling british
film which is well worth seeing. The beginning and end are both

Save the Last Dance (2001)
thumbs up from me
Now to the people who have slagged this film off you are wrong this is a
pretty good film, quite moving to. Julia Stiles rocks and she is also
very cute she gives a moving performance and I like Sean Patrick Thomas
to he's a good actor.
It's a lot better then I thought it would be. The music isn't bad i like
the song towards the end of the film I think pink sings it.
And don't you think that Sarah and Derrek made a cute couple I did

One of the Hollywood Ten (2000)
Great film
This is a superb film about Blacklisting of Hollywoods writers/directors and actors. Jeff Goldblum is fantastic as Director Herbert Biebelmen who made the acclaimed film "Salt Of The City". This is a very powerful film superbly Directed by veteran Welsh film maker Karl Francis. It also features a great supporting cast. Possible Oscar noms for this film.
Nurse Betty (2000)
Renee Zellweger is superb in this brilliant moving film
Well I saw Nurse Betty today and was throughly moved by it. Renee Zellwegger gives a very moving performance as Betty and it
would not surprise me if she is holding an Oscar next March.
There is a brilliant script in this clever black comedy from
"Company of men " director Neil La Bute.
I don't want to say to much about this film course i don't want
to give to much away.
Let's just say it works very well and has to be one of the best
films of the year
I could really rave on about it, all the supporting performances
are superb, from Morgan Freeman right down to Pruitt Taylor
Vince. And although a lot of people don't like Chris Rock in it,
i think he's good.
Must give a thumbs up to the music as well which will hopefully
get an Oscar nom.
But this film belongs to Renee Zellwegger the best performance
by an actress I've seen
Sleepy Hollow (1999)
A wonderful magical film
Tim Burton is one of a few Directors who can not put a foot wrong. Every film he makes is a must see. I had been looking forward to Sleepy Hollow for a while and I was not disappointed.
This is everything you'd expect from Burton.
The wonderful Johnny Depp who was great in Edward Sissorhands and wonderful in Ed Wood is superb again as Ichabod Crane the Detective who has to solve the strange murders. He does a really good English accent and is very funny.
Christina Ricci in her first Burton film, (i have a feeling it won't be her last) is wonderful, she's one of my fav actresses and one of the most beautiful woman alive. She is so pretty in this film and gives an enchanting performance up there with the best.
A great supporting cast to with good turns from Michael Gambon and Christopher Walken as the headless horseman himself.
The scenery is all so beautiful it has a rather eerie feel to it.
And yet again Danny Elfman does a great score.
Sleepy Hollow isn't going to win many Oscars but it will win many hearts.
A superb film.
Diagnosis Murder (1993)
A good show best thing on daytime TV
Since I have been stuck that home the last few weeks I've watched a lot of TV and there is hardly anything on in the daytime on terrestial TV that is except for Diagnosis Murder which is a very funny well written and very well acted murder,mystery,comedy.
I don't watch it all the time but as it's a different story each episode tha dosen't matter.
Basically it's been something to look forward to on the days i've been stuck that home. Though I won't see it when I go back to work if i ever am that home i will do my best to watch it.
The best thing about it? Dick Van Dyke ofcourse proving he is a very funny man.
Hercules (1998)
One of the best cartoons around today.
I never saw the Hercules movie but I have seen loads of episodes of the TV series and it is a very funny show which adults will appreciate as well as kids.
It's quite educational in the fact that you get to know a lot about Greek Mythology.
The most astonishing thing about it is the voice over cast with the likes of Tate Donovan, French Stewart, Sandra Bernhard and James Woods among the regulars. And an amazing guest star cast which has seen everything from Sarah Michelle Gellar, Jenifer Aniston, Lisa Kudrow to William Shatner and Robert Stack doing voices.
To sum up a very witty show.
Frog and Wombat (1998)
A great mystery film for kids
Frog And Wombat is a great mystery movie for kids about this young girl who belives her new next door neighbour is a murdurer and will go to any lengths to prove it including bringing reluctent friend in to help. This is a great film with great acting from the youngstars especially the talented Katie Stuart as Frog.
Check it out
Pleasantville (1998)
A masterpiece
Pleasantville is a fantastic film with great effects and a wonderful script, powerful direction. But it is the acting that I really liked, it was great to see the late great JT Walsh in such a wonderful finale. Five members of the cast really shine Tobey Maguire and Reese Witherspoon are two of the most gifted actors of their generation and they are both fantastic, William H Macy and Joan all never give bad performances they play the sitcom parents to perfection and Jeff Daniels is fantastic to giving one of the most moving perforances he has ever given. They all deserved Oscar nominations, shame on The Academy for not nominating them or the film, up there with The Truman show as one of the best films of the decade.
The Truman Show (1998)
Jim Carrey in an awe inspiring movie
Jim Carrey stars as Truman Burbank in an amazing, inspiring movie which Jim Carrey deserves an Oscar for. Great support from Ed Harris and a wonderful soundtrack. This will go down in Movie history.
