Cocktails & Dreams (Cocktail dvd)

Advantages: Great entertaining 80s film
Disadvantages: Flimsy plot at times

...~~~Cocktail~~~ I have to admit I love quite a few films from the 80's, probably the ones that some people think are a little bit cheesy. But I think most of them are very easy to watch with loveable characters and great soundtrack. Cocktail is one of these films that falls into this list. Released in 1988, Cocktail was thankfully not the film Tom Cruise needed to boost his career after he had already starred in Top Gun and The Colour of Money amongst others. What I love about Cocktail is purely the fact that its very entertaining and I never get bored when I sit down and watch it. Whereas the only downside is the highly predictable plot that is a bit flimsy at points. Basically Cruise (Brian Flanagan) is an ambitious young man who heads to the New York City to get an education in business management. To make ends meet he finds a job...

Review of Cocktail (DVD)

GOING OUT FOR COCKTAILS

Advantages: very readable
Disadvantages: none

...This was the first book that I read by Madeline Wickham who is also Sophie Kinsella. I had read all the books under Sophie first of all, and since she is 1 of my favourite authors then I sought to read all the ones under this name. To be honest I didn't find them to be as good as the Sophie ones, but this could be since I am a fan of the Shopaholic books as that is my style of book. This book is about 3 women who work together (perhaps that is why there is Cocktails for 3). The women work on a magazine and they meet up once a month outside of work to go for Cocktails and have a bit of a gossip outside of work. A little bit about the characters. Roxanne is the travel writer in the magazine. She gets to jet off to locations in order to review them. The man she is seeing is married to another woman but this doesn't seem to bother...

Review of Cocktails for Three - Madeleine Wickham

FREE DVDs

Advantages: Free trial, large choice, post included,new realeases
Disadvantages: see review

...I like movies and I like freebies, so when you get offered both in one swoop you?re bound to accept! I used my two week free trial with this company and remained with them for a couple of monthsbefore moving on to try many other companies free trials (and winning a new DVD player on Tesco DVD rental site on their free trial offer). I then had an email from DVDs 365 asking me to go back, and offering me a free DVD if I did so. I had just left Tesco (with my new DVD player) so I chose to go back with them. ∆◊◊ THE SERVICE THEY OFFER ∆◊◊ Basically it?s like going to a video shop and hiring films on DVD, except you don?t pay for each film you chose ? rather a monthly fee for which you can watch as many movies as you can fit in, for us this is usually around 8 a month (2 a week usually weekends...
