SAW (film only review) Details: Director: James Wan Release Date: 1 October 2004 Certification: 18 (UK) Runtime: 103 mins I am not usually one to watch horror films but when my eldest grandson came to stay he put this on for us wrinklies to watch with him. STORY Adam and Lawrence, both with shackles on their ankles, and a dead body in the middle of the room. Adam doesn't know Lawrence, or the dead body so his head is full of unanswerable questions. Why is he here in this dirty room ? Who is this Lawrence? Why is that guy dead!, and who is he?

Review of Saw (DVD)

Saw the first of many

Advantages: : A great film, good effects!
Disadvantages: The story doesn't end!!!!

Saw (film only review) Details: Director: James Wan Release Date: 1 October 2004 Certification: 18 (UK) Runtime: 103 mins The first of 5 Saw films.

And his head is full of unanswerable questions, why is he here? Who ...

Higher Learning Film Review

Advantages: Characters, Issues
Disadvantages: A little over-ambitious in places

John Singleton?s Higher Learning deserves some serious respect for exploring a number of sensitive issues that many University students encounter at some point in their lifetime-- some of which include institutional racism, rape, and the individual desire to be accepted. While some of the characters lack emotional complexity and the story at times may feel a little "preachy", the film is still a very enjoyable and thought-provocative experience -- one that'll linger with you for quite some time afterwards. Primarily, it's a film concerned with identity, with the numerous individual struggles interlinked. Malik Williams (Omar Epps, In Too Deep) is the campus track star convinced that everyone is against him because of his skin colour ("It's no longer about what a person says but what they think," he says. "So in my mind, you've been ...
