Michael Caine Is Harry Brown

Advantages: Gritty British thriller
Disadvantages: A bit full on at the end

...If you followed the career path of Michael Caine you might well wonder what happened, from being crowned the King of Cool in movies such as Get Carter, Alfie, and The Italian Job; Caine almost dropped out of the popular movie genre. During the 80?s and 90?s with the odd exception (Educating Rita, Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, The forth Protocol) his movies were generally bottom end stuff, most of his output in this time is available on super low budget DVD. For Caine however age made him turn a corner, and as the star tentatively spoke about a cameo in popular soap Eastenders, his movie career took of in ways he possibly never realised. With two Batman movies, Children Of Men, and the highly acclaimed Is Anybody There? Behind him Caine now returns in his intriguing movie yet, Harry Brown. Harry Brown follows a history of popular vigilante...

Review of Harry Brown

I'll be Fabulously Flirty if it gets people talking!!

Advantages: clean, fresh hair that smells as good as it looks
Disadvantages: More expensive than Batiste

...own brand and instead opted for a 150ml bottle of James Brown London fabulously flirty dry shampoo. James who? James Brown is the best friend of Kate Moss, at the age of 15 he landed his first job in a Croydon salon, his employers thinking he was actually 18 at the time. It is during his time at this salon that he met Kate Moss and it is James who was responsbile for Kate Moss' hair on the cover of Vogue Magazine in 1992 as her career as a model began to take off. Moving around the globe working with numerous celebrities and models, James launched his signature range in 2007, exclusively to Boots, the high street store we know and love. His Signature range is marketed as being a range which "provides an innovative, fresh perspective to the consumer, by bringing the hip London social scene to the mainstream market...

Review of James Brown Fabulously Flirty Dry Shampoo

dr browns bottles ????

Advantages: great for wind and colic
Disadvantages: leak, scratch and to many parts to it

...in my experience with dr browns bottles they are great for preventing wind and colic but they have a few down sides so are they worth the extra money are that the bottles leak if not upright and the milk comes up the tube and out of the bottles as you warm it up they get scratched easy and you can only steralise 2 bottles at a time as there are so many parts to each bottle. the bottles are quite wide so you cant fit 2 in a double thermal bag and the level one teats got blocked up had to swap to level two earlier than reccommended. if i had to buy baby bottles again i would look for another product that helps with wind and colic....

Review of Dr.Brown Baby Bottle

This shampoo got soul!

Advantages: Smells fab, works very well, does as it says
Disadvantages: Silly lid on the tube

...I apologise for the title! I am literally always trying to find the perfect shampoo and conditioner and I love trying new brands. I don?t always go for what is necessarily best for my hair; I usually go for what makes me hair smell nice! I noticed this last time I was in Boots. I like Boots because they do a lot of the travel size mini?s enabling you to try good brands without buying the big ones, spending a fortune and then realising that they are not for you. James Brown isn a favourite hairdresser to the stars, and Kate Moss is a huge fan - if he's good enough for her, he's good enough for me! He is also UK style director for GHD hair products. This shampoo comes in a very plain and simple white tube. It looks more like a cream than a shampoo; I had to look twice, to check I wasn?t buying more smoothing serum or finishing...

Review of James Brown Richly Moisturising Shampoo

Home James!

Advantages: 18 tracks of pure brilliance and some wonderful lyrics
Disadvantages: None

...James are probably one of the most under-rated bands of the past 25 years. They formed in Whalley Range, Manchester in 1981. Band members came and went in a flurry of activity until the band came across Tim Booth dancing like a complete loon at a disco they had sneaked into. They invited him to join the band as their dancer (a la Bez in the Happy Mondays) but later he became their vocalist. This 'Best of' collection was released in 1998 and contains eighteen tracks of pure brilliance. Track Listing 1 - Come Home (Flood Mix) 2 - Sit Down 3 - She's a Star 4 - Laid 5 - Waltzing Along (single version) 6 - Say Something 7 - Born of Frustration 8 - Tomorrow 9 - Destiny Calling 10 - Out to get You 11 - Runaground 12 - Lose Control 13 - Sometimes 14 - How was it for You? 15...

Review of Best Of James, The - James

Bland, James Bland

Advantages: Playability, Fun, Great Multiplayer
Disadvantages: It's no Goldeneye

...killed trying to use) and mobile vehicles (a rocket firing tank and the unbelievably excellent mini copter). With the combative angst between the two of us, these would either see a 5-0 walk over or a swear induced 4-4 draw (1 level being tied) before the console would go off in disgust of drawing. Although the memory's of the game are fond, I'll be patently honest, they are probably happy mainly due to the fact it was a family thing. I can't remember much of the game (though having not played it in 2 years this may be fair enough) but all I seem to remember are fond things of a slightly ropey looking shooter that was fun but nothing truly special. Even in those days there was better games available (MOH, Killzone) but yet this one always had us coming back. No reason why, maybe it was still the fact we could be James Bone, or maybe it was...

Review of James Bond 007: Nightfire (PS2)

Jackie Brown Film Review

Advantages: Characters
Disadvantages: Tarantion isn't for everyone

...While at times I have found Quentin Tarantino's nonlinear storytelling quite frustrating, I do tend to enjoy his movies. Jackie Brown, his third as a director, may not seem like the most stylistic of his works within the first sitting -- especially when it has Pulp Fiction to contend with -- but it's a film that will grow on you each time you watch it. The leisurely pace is one of the main reasons why I like it so much. So, what is Jackie Brown about? Well, the title character (Pam Grier) works as a flight attendant for a small Mexican airline, who also smuggles illicit arms money into America for gun merchant Ordell Robbie (Samuel L. Jackson). The FEDS soon bust Jackie and attempt to cut a deal with her to get to her boss. Feeling threatened by the law and Ordell, she hires an honest bail-bondsman, Max Cherry (Robert Forster...

Review of Jackie Brown (Collector's Edition) (DVD)

THe Da Vinci Code - Dan Brown

Advantages: Great story, interesting
Disadvantages: Is it true??

...The Da Vinci Code is probably one of the most controversial books of the modern day. When it was released it caused a storm. The Da Vinci code was released in 2003.It was written by Dan Brown and was an international bestseller.The book has sold 80 million copies as of 2009 and has been translated into 44 language. Most people, I know me included always thought this was his first novel. However, his first novel was actually Angels and Demons which was released in 2000. I've read the book and really really enjoyed it. It's one of those books that I think keeps you mesmerised from beginning to end. I found it hard to put down. Of course, the subject matter is very controversial and although it is meant to be somewhat fictional I can see elements of truth in it. The basic story features Robert Langdon, a professor of Symbology. He is...

Review of The Da Vinci Code - Dan Brown

Brown hasn't lost it

Advantages: Great story, flows nicely, good characters
Disadvantages: Keeps you up all night

...of the science was a little complicated (I really don't have a scientific mind at all) and I had to double read a few bit to ensure that I understood them fully. As I said, I had every intention of not reading the entire thing, but every time I started a new chapter I thought to myself 'right, this is definitely the last one', but then I'd get to the end of the chapter and I just had to find out what happened next, so then it was 'just one more chapter can't hurt'. As for the characters, well Robert Langdon is typical Robert. If you haven't read any of the other books I don't think this one would give you a real understanding of him, although it does give you some insight into his past and his days as a new lecturer. But I think Dan Brown has assumed that you know Robert and his little foibles. Although I don't believe it'd exclude anyone from...

Review of The Lost Symbol - Dan Brown

Golden Brown, Texture like sun

Advantages: A good read to take your mind off thinking
Disadvantages: A very similar read to his other books

...that the artist I want to do it is no longer in my city, adding travelling costs to that £500. Basically Ryan = even more depressed than he was just being bored. In a last ditch attempt to cure my boredom I decided I would go to my shelf and pick up one of the books I had not read. Luckily for me it worked. Unfortunately, I picked it up right at the start of my weekend. It is now the end of my weekend and I can't actually remember doing anything but sitting in my bed reading, which is brilliant and everything?but now I'm finished it and I'm bored again. So I figure I shall review it. A bowl full of fun For my Christmas a few years ago I was given three books by Dan Brown. From the shameless self promotion plastered over the first and last four or five pages of each of the books, I noticed there were in fact four Dan Brown...
