...~~~The Hole~~~
Im a huge fan in general however I love a good psychological thriller. Released in 2001, The Hole was one of my bargain purchases at £2 from Tesco.
~Synopsis:
In order to avoid a school trip in Wales, four students decide to spend the weekend in an abandoned underground air raid shelter. Drink, sex and partying is on the cards just for starters.
However their plan's don't go to plan when its time to leave and they find out they really are trapped ...
~My opinion:
I liked the approach the film took by starting off in the current day after the events had happened, as you would expect with a psychological thriller the plot focuses on trying to lull you into a false sense of security whilst it plays mind games with you.
Even though I expected this, I did not expect what would happen in the film and interestingly it was...

Review of The Hole (DVD)
Advantages: Full of suspense, good performance by Birch Disadvantages: Didn't quite deliver...
...need to do much except look good and be ill. This film was made just before her role in Bend It Like Beckham, so it obviously didn't do her career any harm, but I wasn't overly impressed. Laurence Fox as Geoff was again good, but not brilliant. My problem with him as an actor is that he always seems the same and I don't really feel that he is acting. Desmond Harrington as Mike is pretty convincing. I didn't like him as a character, but I thought Harrington worked well within the role - he wasn't really supposed to be a likable character anyway. Daniel Brocklebank as Martyn only has a brief role, but it was suitably a good mixture of creepiness and intelligence - good stuff.
I liked the way that the story is told. It begins with Liz's escape from the hole; we see her filthy and injured, staggering back to the school that she attends to...

Review of The Hole (DVD)
...Why would four, wealthy, public school teenagers want to go and stay in an old army bunker just to avoid a field trip? I don't know, but they do and they pay for it too. Crazy.
Anyway, back to the opinion.
In brief, The Hole is about these four (somewhat stupid) English (but one American) teens who set up camp in this large underground hide-out. Martin, the mastermind who locked them in the bunker and made sure their parents and the school didn't find out about it and left them there. On the day he's supposed to let them out, he doesn't and they're locked in. They find things fun to start with - all that alcohol and sex but then they run out of food and the water and electricity go off... Scary!
The best thing (or at least my favourite thing) about this film is that you don't find out the whole (somewhat disturbing) truth until...

Advantages: Good scenes down the bunker - quite tense Disadvantages: Not scary, a bit of ropy acting
...The Hole is a British horror / thriller from 2001, starring Thora Birch (American Beauty, Ghost World) and Keira Knightley before she got famous and started pouting.
It tells the tale of four friends who decide to bunk off a field trip from their posh boarding school, and instead spend the weekend buried underground in a secret bunker. Why they would want to do that is anybody's guess; it must have been one particularly boring field trip. These kids, Liz (Birch), Frankie (Knightley), Mike (Desmond Harrington) and Geoff (Laurence Fox) are just looking for a good time, but something goes badly wrong?
Anyway, the film is told with flashbacks between this fateful weekend and the present, in which a police investigation is being carried out into the deaths of three of the four students. Only Liz survived the ordeal, and she is being...

Review of The Hole (DVD)
Advantages: unusual story for a teen horror flick Disadvantages: you can guess who did it pretty early on
...Oh no, another teen horror movie - but not quite. The film is based on the book After the Hole by Guy Burt and is set (unusually these days) in England.
The story follows Thora Birch (from American Beauty) who is the only survivor of some horrific accident/ordeal. Most of the story is told in flashback - but don't let that put you off. Birch explains to the psychologist she is now seeing what happened in The Hole.
Basically, and this isn't giving anything away, four rich American kids at British boarding school decide not to go on a geography field trip to Wales (and lets face it who can blame them!!). With the help of the quiet kid at school they lock themselves in an old WW2 bunker for the party of a lifetime.
Suffice to say that Thora Birch is the only one left alive to tell what happened - ie they were locked in by...

Review of The Hole (DVD)
Advantages: Gripping, Interesting story, Surprising final twist to the plot Disadvantages: It won?t appeal to everybody, especially those with delicate stomachs
...Although not the most inspiring title for a film, The Hole is far from dull. Released in cinemas on April 20th, this movie provides some welcomed relief from the hype surrounding the box office hit, Bridget Jones?s Diary. Based on the novel by Guy Burt, (?After The Hole?), this film centres on four public school teenagers who take refuge from a field trip by hiding in an wartime bunker. Convinced that they have successfully escaped a dismal stay in wet Wales, Liz, Frankie, Geoff and Mike excitedly climb down into the hole, armed with all the ingredients for the perfect party. The situation is further intensified by the fact that Liz is crazy about Mike, whilst Frankie and Geoff cannot wait to have some time to themselves.
Nick Hamm?s film cleverly merges fantasy with reality, with the result that it is difficult for the viewer to...

Review of The Hole (DVD)
Advantages: Excellent phone with lots of features Disadvantages: Camera needs improvinf further
...~~~Apple iphone~~~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This phone attracted my attention because even before it was released it was considered the best phone on the market in 2008.
I was reluctant to purchase this phone as I was happy with my Sony Ericson but I have to say it was the best decision I have ever made. I actually paid my phone contract off early to get a new contract with O2 as they were the first suppliers to offer the iphone.
My first iphone was the iphone 3g with 8gb memory (16gb also available).
~Then came the iphone 3gs:
Released one year later in 2009, the 3gs was mine instantly after I had been so impressed with the 3g versions.
Advertised as having faster speed capabilities the 3gs came in either 16gb or 32 gb, I chose the 16gb which was an upgrade from my last phone.
~Cosmetics:
The iphone in my opinion is very sleek and sexy! I...
Advantages: Silly and quite enrtertaining! Disadvantages: All the contestants work for the BBC!
...We give the world Who wants to be a Millionaire and what do we get in return? We get Hole in the Wall!! Somehow this is Saturday night TV gone mental as the fact is that I was actually hooked on this after one episode in the same way that I was with the Channel Five show Night Fever.
Originating from the Japanese game show called Tonneruzu, the premise is simple. The wall accelerates towards the game zone and the contestants have to fit through the space in the wall by means of the shape that has been cut out, whether it is a stance, a position or simply a hole. If they don't then they end up in a pool of water, bottom line is they have to adopt the shape to get through the wall and win points.
BBC1 broadcast the show on a Saturday night at around 5.30; this is a simple show and acts as a warm up for the evening schedule that until...
Advantages: Everything for every man Disadvantages: Can be pricey
...Cheapest way into iPhone 3G S Ownership?
Introduction
I?m going to assume you?ve read my previous review of how to get your hands on an iPhone cheaply, and that you?ve discounted buying second hand and that you want that box fresh sensation of unwrapping your very own brand new iPhone 3G S!
If this is indeed the case then read on, the following is for YOU! We?ll look at what Contract options there are, what Pay and Go options are available and (my favourite) what?s available Off Plan.
We?ll use the iPhone 3G S 16GB model in these examples, as it?s the cheapest iPhone 3G S to start with. Obviously you could buy a brand new iPhone 3G and make an additional saving, but then this review is of the iPhone 3G S (although much of the content is applicable).
I will be looking at the obvious telecoms firms...
