Review of Step Brothers

Big Brother

Advantages: Nightly Entertainment, Can Be Good At Times
Disadvantages: Ran Out of Ideas, Repetitive

...Everyone has an opinion on Big Brother, regardless of whether you watch it or not. For some, it's entertaining. For others, it's pointless TV, watched by idiots, which is taking up time and money which could be used on other shows. ~~~ What's it About ? ~~~ Basically, a group of everyday people are put into a house which is completely covered by televsion cameras and microphones. The show then runs for a number of weeks (10+). The contestants participate in daily tasks which they must complete in order to gain a reward. They also get a main task which covers a few days, which depending on their performance, either earns them a food budget to buy what they like from the shopping list or earns them rice and other basic food. The contestants also nominate each other to decide who faces eviction. The public then vote for who...

Review of Channel 4 - Big Brother

Very Reliable Brother

Advantages: Cordless phone, quick document scanning
Disadvantages: small recording time of answering machine

...The Brother FAX-1560 is an inkjet fax machine with an integrated telephone as well as an answering machine. The use of inkjet technology means that your received fax documents will be of high quality, but will not be waterproof like all inkjet technology using devices. Other technologies are also put into practice on this fax machine, one technological advantage is the transmission of super fine details and the auto-correctness of errors that occur during transmission. Another advantage is the Fax machines ability to reduce long documents to A4 size. The on-board modem delivers a 14,400 bps(bits per second) transfer speed, which converts to 14 kbps (kilo-bits per second). Which does not seem a lot, but is sufficient enough to transfer the required data. This is because all fax machines as well as this one convert documents into...

Review of Brother FAX-1560

Step Brothers

Advantages: Over fairly quickly
Disadvantages: Just not very good...

...***Film Only Review*** Last night I sat down to watch Step Brothers after being told by a friend, who has a similar sense of humour to me, that it was pretty funny and worth a watch. Story ------- Brennan (Will Ferrell) and Dale (John C Reilly) are two 40 year old who still live at home with their parents. Dale's dad and Dale have been living together Dales' whole life, Dale doesn't work and loves the lifestyle of being able to do what he wants when he wants, especially jamming on his drum kit. Brennan is a slightly more sensitive character having been raised by his mother his whole life and likes still being looked after even though he is middle aged. When Dale and Brennan's parents hook up and get married, both of the boys (I say boys, meaning men!) have to learn to share and get along as step brothers. Initially...

Review of Step Brothers

Brothers and Sisters

Advantages: Great drama show, secrets, lies
Disadvantages: None

...Families, drama, secrets and lies, what more could you want from a television show.!! Brothers and sisters is one of my favourite drama series out at the moment. It is shown in England on Channel 4 and more recently on E4. It first came out in September 2006 and as of September 2008 they are now in their third series. The DVD of the first series came out in February of this year. It is an American drama series featuring the Walker family of California. They are a fairly well to do family who live in Pasadena, California, just near Los Angeles. We are introduced to the family at a birthday party. The patriarch and much loved figure of William Walker dies in spectacular fashion and things are never quite the same again. What looked liked a charmed life from the outside soon begins to crack and the secrets come pouring out. Nora Walkers...

Blood Brothers

Advantages: Good action film
Disadvantages: Some weak plot areas

...This is a flm only review and is not about the DVD. Four Brothers is an excellent gritty film that I watched on Film 4 a couple of nights ago, it has a strong cast and a pretty good story line that focuses on family relationships and the quest for revenge. The four brothers in the title are all adopted and are bought back together to the city of Detroit one winters day for the funeral of their foster mother who provided them with a loving home and precious childhood memories in a rough working class area. The mother has been killed in a convenience store robbery while she was shopping for groceries and the thre of the brothers vow to get revenge despite the close attention of the local police to whome they are well known. Cast List Mark Wahlberg ... Bobby Mercer Tyrese Gibson ... Angel Mercer André Benjamin ... Jeremiah...

Review of Four Brothers (DVD)

Brotherly Love

Advantages: Gripping and great entertainment
Disadvantages: If you were picky you could pull holes in the plot

...When their adopted mother is murdered in a grocery store robbery, four estranged brothers return to the rough Detroit neighbourhood to bury their beloved mother, but also to seek vengeance for her death. Turning the neighbourhood upside down in search of the killers, they soon discover things are not all they seem. The other day I watched an old John Wayne western called "The Sons of Katie Elder" which sees 4 brothers' return to their homestead to bury their mother and seek revenge for a handful of wrong doings. It was thoroughly enjoyable, but the whole time I had a nagging feeling that I recognized the storyline from a much more recent movie and then it hit me. John Singleton's "Four Brothers" pretty much uses an identical plot line but in a more contemporary situation and does a brilliant job of making a film which could easily...

Brother Bear or Moose!

Advantages: Excellent film, stunning animation & voiceovers, there's 2 moose in it!
Disadvantages: Didn't get rated as highly by others as it should've been

...(aka the spare room) they are now taking over the house. It has even got to the stage now where I'm planning outfits for my babies (buying moose babygrows on eBay) when hubby and I haven't even started trying to get pregnant yet. Anyway, I digress slightly - after a while I am finally in the mood to write again, and write I will - quite honestly all any consumer really needs to know about Brother Bear is that it's a fantastic film and it must be watched, so any words I write on top of that are surely a bonus. Brother Bear Imagine my absolute delight back in 2003 when Disney's Brother Bear was released, and I found out that that there were two moose characters in it. Off I trotted to the cinema with Graeme, and watched what was to become one of my all-time top 5 favourite films (it's an especially good one to...

Review of Brother Bear (Animated) (DVD)

We band of brothers

Advantages: As close as it gets to the real thing?
Disadvantages: May be uncomfortably close for some?

..."The heroes have crosses above their heads, the ones that are buried in the cemeteries. Those are the true heroes, not us. We're just part of the works, that's all. And we thank God we got back alive." A veteran of Easy Company. First of all, I realize that my review about Band of Brothers is quite lengthy, and for that I apologize because I am aware that long commentaries have the habit of becoming tedious or even self indulgent.. But I feel I would be doing a great disservice to the Band of Brothers experience by not being as thorough as possible. Experiencing Band of Brothers starts not in the battlefields of Europe, nor in Camp Toccoa, Georgia. It begins in your hand, with the classically beautiful packaging of the 10 episode, six disc DVD set that is housed in a metal tin that at first glance resembles a military I.D. dog...

Brothers Strawberry cider

Advantages: Tasty!
Disadvantages: May be too sweet for some people. Bottles too big.

...Brothers Strawberry Cider Brothers is a relatively new company who make cider, they started out at Glastonbury festival where they started selling their Pear cider in 1995. The company is made up of four brother: Francis, Jonathan, Matthew & Daniel, and their family have been making the cider for 14 generations!

The cider I am reviewing today is the Strawberry variety, as in all honesty, this is...
