More! gives you more!

Advantages: POTW, Fashion & Beauty, Alan Carr interview.
Disadvantages: No sexy stories anymore!

...Facts Price: £1.40 No. of pages: 106 (Issue no. 607) Frequency: Weekly Other: More! has a website (www.moremagazine.co.uk) which has a lot of the same stuff as the magazine, it also has up to date news and chat room area. More! also has a Facebook page (www.facebook.com/moremag) which I've joined. The main focus of this page is to find people's opinions on stuff, to find people for articles in the magazine and to let people know about competitions. Overall, I think £1.40's ok for a magazine. There are others which cost a lot more and are just pages and pages of the same thing. Whereas More! has variety and lots of different interesting subjects. The Cover The cover is usually a picture of a celebrity who is appearing in the magazine for an interview that week. This week it was Lily Allen with the headline...

Review of More!

Four parents, one Christmas

Advantages: Brilliant main actors, great storyline, fun festive film
Disadvantages: Lack of chemistry between Vaughn and Witherspoon, most of comedy in trailers, got a bit silly

...Brad and Kate are a happily in love couple who enjoy having fun without the responsibilities of marriage or children. For three years they've successfully managed to dodge the unwelcome Christmas season usually spent with family and have jetted off to many exotic locations. This year, having told each set of divorced parents that they won't be able to make Christmas again due to important charity work, they excitedly pack their bags ready for a hot Christmas in Fiji together. But arriving at the airport they find that their flight has been cancelled due to bad weather. When a news reporter interviews them, their families find out where they are and Brad and Kate both get phone calls inviting them round for the holidays. Doom falls upon them at the prospect of visiting four parents on Christmas day. And each visit is just as bad as...

FourFourTwo: A Thinking Man's Football Magazine

Advantages: Excellent journalism and phoography. High quality production.
Disadvantages: Slightly expensive, but even that is stretching it.

...with me!) the name refers to a well-known football formation ? four at the back, four in midfield and two strikers up front (the poor goalkeeper is ignored as he is the one constant). FORMAT FFT, which is printed on glossy, high quality paper, comes out once a month and has a news-stand price of £4.10. As a subscriber, I pay £19 every six months by direct debit ? a saving of 20% off the cover price. The magazine, which celebrates its 15th birthday this month, has a healthy balance of regular features, exclusive interviews, advertising, and competitions, and boasts a very high quality of journalism and photography. It covers the whole range of the football universe ? from Non-league to Premier League in the UK ? as well as coverage of foreign leagues, from the more obvious such as Serie A (Italy), Primera Liga (Spain...

Review of Four Four Two

Fantastic Four

Advantages: good action film, special effects
Disadvantages: purists maybe upset

...Four (Mr. Fantastic, the Invisible Woman, the Human Torch and the Thing) are born, as well as new arch villain Dr Doom. Initially I had been told lots of bad things about the Fantastic 4 film. That it was not worth seeing. That it was a lemon of a film, and that it was not a true depiction of the Fantastic Four characters from the comics. The last of these reasons (to me) would not be very high on my reasons for not seeing the film as I had not read any of the comics and so I didn't know the true story of the characters, also this was a theatrical release and so would probably upset the purists anyway no matter how it was done. However I was still not completely confident when I inserted the disk. But how did it fair? I must say I was pleasantly surprised by the film and the different "take" it had on the other superhero films I have...

Review of Fantastic Four (DVD)

Four Bothers

Advantages: Some good stunt sequences
Disadvantages: Terrible acting, writing and direction

...cars and Z-list stars vehicle "2 Fast 2 Furious". Sadly "Four Brothers is symptomatic of his continuing decline, glorifying violence and condoning vigilantes in this paper thin revenge actioner. At best it can be said to be a paean to the exploitation movies of the 1970s. However, it feels like a step back for the director whose seminal work suggested that retribution isn't the same as redemption, whereas here he positively encourages eye-for-eye tactics, to exclusion of everything else. He discards any attempts at characterisation early on (though they oddly seem to have been reinserted during the end credits) leaving us with a bunch of entirely unsympathetic main protagonists whose sole motivation is blind revenge without any recourse to more traditional means of justice first. Their relationship to their adoptive mother smacks of oedipal...

Review of Four Brothers (DVD)

Four Families, One Christmas, Hectic!!

Advantages: Funny, Good Cast, Christmasy!!
Disadvantages: Could of been better

...As soon as I saw Four Christmases Advertised I had to see it. Vince Vaughn and Reece Witherspoon make numerous appearances in my dvd collection so I knew more than likely i would probably love this film. The trailer looked great, like a great Christmas Comedy, perfect to put me in the Xmas Mood!! The Film is about a couple, Brad (Vince Vaughan) and Kate (Reece Witherspoon), the pair are happy, what some would say,the perfect couple. They aren't married and have no kids, their relationship is good and fun times. They've been together 3 years but it seems its very much a honey moon period and its going to continue that way. The couple gave up family Christmases when they got together, instead they tell their families a white lie about them doing Charity work abroad, when they head off for a stress free holiday every year...

Review of Four Christmases

Four Chritmases (Luckily only the one film)

Advantages: Some fairly enjoyable parts...
Disadvantages: Not that comic , fairly poor acting...

...Four Christmases DVD Reveiw -------------------------------------------- It was around the start of December and obviousdly christmas was coming closer and closer each day. I wanted something to get me in the mood for christmas as I had a lot on my plate before this time. I went with a few friends to see a film called Four Christmases. I had heard good things about how hilarious and how well the acting is in this film, but I had a completely different opinion once I had saw the film for myself. The Plot Four Christmases is about a couple (Brad McVie and Kate) who haven't married as of yet. They live in San Francisco. They go on holiday each year at christmas time for a relaxing time together so that they don't have to spend time with their annoying familes so they sit back and enjoy the time they have because life...

Review of Four Christmases

Four Up

Advantages: Great simple game for all ages
Disadvantages: None

...After noughts and crosses I suppose that someone had to come up with the idea of Connect Four and a good idea it is too. In both cases you have to line up the required number of symbols either, horizontally, vertically or diagonally. In noughts and crosses it is three symbols and the game is played on paper whilst in Connect Four it is four symbols or coloured disks and the game is played in a special frame. The upright standing frame has 6 columns into which will fit 7 of the provided disks on top of each other end on. Thus with a full column you will see seven coloured circles. 21 of the disks are in red and the other 21 are in yellow and each of two players selects their choice of colour. A player drops one of his/her disks into a column of their choice and it will naturally drop to the bottom. The opposing player drops his...

Review of Connect Four

Four Courts: Four *s

Advantages: Great breakfast
Disadvantages: Out of the way location

...Another year, another ISTO. And that means another trip to Dublin, and another hostel. The Irish Student Trampoline Open, following a spell in Cork, was back in Dublin this year, and we went along for 4 days of bouncing, drinking and site-seeing. Our home for the trip was Four Courts Hostel. I don't really like hostels that much, but I can tolerate them when travelling in a group, and when someone else is paying. However even then, there are a few things I need a hostel to have in order for me to rate it highly. These include a decent location, safe storage facilities, reasonably equipped rooms and a few facilities. I'm not going to compare Four Courts with full service hotels, because that is unfair, but I will compare it with the other hostels I have stayed in, particularly those in Dublin. We got the bus from the airport...

Review of Four Courts Hostel, Dublin

The stunning Four Seaons Miami

Advantages: Luxurious, elegant hotel with excellent service
Disadvantages: Loation, location, loation

...check in (yes reception is the on seventh floor!) The lobby is large, light and airy and it's on this level that you find the hotel bar, pool and restaurant as well as a small shop. The ambiance of this hotel definitely seems to be one of understated and modern elegance with modern yet tasteful and expensive looking furnishings juxtaposed against high ceilings and more classic art work. The attention to detail is great and the place is so, so clean and immaculate (and believe me I am such a clean freak that I really notice these things!) Check-in was remarkably fast and efficient with every detail of our reservation being correct. With 10 minutes of arriving at the hotel we were in our room and the luggage was literally two minutes behind us! The room and reservations: We had reserved a twin room directly via the Four Seasons...
