Review of Step Brothers

Very Reliable Brother

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

...the 'Fax' format and then send the document. When the recipient receives the file it is converted back into its original format as to allow a high quality printout. Black and white print-outs are only possible, which is standard for most fax machines. This particular fax machine takes 2-4 seconds to scan a document, which is quite quick. The Brother FAX-1560 automatically feeds in 20 documents in the document feeder. The document feeder is basically the section of the fax machine which holds the paper ready to fax or print out faxed documents. The paper tray capacity is 100 sheets, which means the fax machine can hold up to a maximum of 100 sheets at a time. There are 10 one-touch speed dials, which allow you to assign an individual phone number to each dial. The 10 one touch dials are usually used to hold your 10 most important numbers...

Review of Brother FAX-1560

Blues Brothers - Soundtrack

Advantages: Blues music, what more can be said? Many great legends of blues and soul.
Disadvantages: Not enough songs

...?re wondering about the storyline or the film itself, go to: http://dvd.ciao.co.uk/TheBluesBrothersWideScreen35057 THE SONGS 11 tracks are included on this album; all are from the original movie, although some are slightly edited so that they are suitable for a soundtrack album. This editing is barely noticeable though. 1 ? She Caught The Katy ? As always, this is a great intro to the album. It?s the first song you?ll hear on the film and is very much in the style of blues. A continuous guitar rhythm is followed by an equally continuous drum beat. Brass instruments, such as trumpets are occasionally heard but the real joy is the harmonica. Jake Blues (John Belushi) sings the, typically blues, lyrics well. ? 8/10 2 ? Peter Gunn Theme ? This instrumental follows a same beat as the previous track, as well as style. A continuous...

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

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...

Review of Brothers And Sisters - Series 1 (DVD)

Brotherly Love

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

...be a western if it was not situated in modern day Detroit. From having four rough brothers returning back to town, the beloved mother and plenty of shoot outs as well as chases, everything about "Four Brothers" reminded me of a really good old fashioned western. Well with that in mind it would be hypocritical of me to say the plot was in any way original, heck I reckon there must be hundreds if not thousands of films which use a similar plot line to drive the entertainment onwards. But what "Four Brothers" manages to achieve where other fail, is to make the whole thing feel fresh and exciting with a perfect balance of action, emotion, humour and a storyline which throws you around a bit, keeping you guessing, before setting you down on a path to what is in all reality a predictable outcome. But don't let the thought of any...

Review of Four Brothers (DVD)

We band of brothers

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

...played around my head like the buzz of so many bees? Was there anything special about me that could have pulled me through this tremendous conflict of arms? And with this in mind I watched Band of Brothers, watched it as a kind of detached spectator, and became totally fascinated by the whole experience. Band of Brothers is exceptionally easy to become completely immersed in. It is absolutely believable and completely without any kind of guile. What you see on the box is what you get in the movie experience. Steven Spielberg and Tom Hanks have, on the back of the success of 1998's Saving Private Ryan, collaborated once again to produce an HBO original television series that immortalizes the true events and actions of American soldiers in their campaign across northern Europe to destroy Hitler's reign of terror. They bring to life...

Review of Band Of Brothers (Tin) (DVD)

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)

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...
