Behind Enemy Lines

Advantages: Entertaining the whole way through
Disadvantages: Slightly on the budget side

...structured, it flickers between two different scenes, one of the terrain and one of the ship. The ship scenes are the informative and talking scenes and the terrain scenes are crammed full of action. The film balances out so that it doesn?t drag on or get boring but the story line can still get quite deep and complicated. Owen Wilson also impressed me in Behind Enemy Lines, I could not imagine him completing a film which is not a comedy but he does it beautifully with this film. His character is well written which probably helps him a lot and the action and seriousness of each scene keeps him sensible. However the thing with Owen Wilson is no matter how serious the scene or the role he unfortunately has a comedy face and therefore I did not find him fitting into the role cosmetically. I kept expecting him to come out with a one liner or say...

Review of Behind Enemy Lines (DVD)

Defining The Great Line

Advantages: Strong drum work throughout, impressive vocal styling.
Disadvantages: You may wear the album out from playing it so often.

...that compliment the double bass drumming and perfectly finish off this fine track. With 'Define The Great Line', the band really are breaking barriers and bursting into new territories of heaviness as a band, making a massive name for themselves with this release and showing that they haven't lost their knack for writing fantastic metalcore music full of crushing power and utmost energy. In this album the band are unpredictable and you never quite know where the music is going to take you next. I think this is what makes this such an intriguing album as you listen on, wondering where you will next be taken, making this an extremely exciting listen which is absolute aural gold. There are the epic adventures of 'Casting Such A Thin Shadow' and closing track 'To Whom It May Concern' as well as shorter displays such as those of the crashing...

Review of Define The Great Line - Underoath

No Line On The Horizon

Advantages: True music is back
Disadvantages: None

...No Line On The Horizon: No Line On The Horizon The perfect opening track for an album like this. Starts off like a fly through the clouds in dawn greeting a new day. That's how I feel about this song. The verses are the key point in this song. The chorus is also very catchy. Pure U2'ness. Magnificent This is probably the best song off the album. That angry and poppy intro doesn't prepare you for what comes next. Melodic layers of guitar while Bono yells 'Magnificent', probably describing their new album. The verses are very beautiful and the lyrics just phenomenal. Moment Of Surrender This song was the hardest for me to like but I do now, after some good sessions of listening. It has that definitive feel of their Joshua's Tree crossed with Achtung Baby. The bass is very beautiful. The best thing about...

Review of Driver: Parallel Lines (PS2)

Walk the Line - Johnny Cash

Advantages: Great, oscar winning movie, great singing!
Disadvantages: None

...This was a really great movie and one you should definitely see. It is about the life of Johnny Cash, the famed American country singer. Johnny Cash is played by Joaquin Phoenix and June Carter (his eventual wife) is played by Reece Witherspoon. I did not know anything about Johnny Cash before I saw this and even if you aren't a fan of his music that will not put you off the film. It chronicals his early life as a child (briefly) before he became famous and then his well publicised battles with drugs. The DVD also contains some special features such as audio commentary, 10 deleted scenes and the theatrical trailer. It is rated 12, only suitable for people over that age as it contains use of strong language and drug use. It is produced by 20th Century Fox and runs for approximately 130 minutes. It has Dolby digital sound and has main...

Walk the Line said the Man in Black

Advantages: An engaging, touching story and exceptional performances
Disadvantages: Very little

...brings the film to life with a perfect balance of entertainment and information. Whilst I could waffle on about how amazing the concert scenes are and the fact that you feel like you are actually there or that his choice of backdrops capture the era down to a T. What stands out for me is he has packed so much into the film without making it feel drawn out or making the pace of the film too slow. Everything moves along at a wonderful pace and I can honestly say that there is not a single scene in the film which doesn't deliver something of importance or interest. Usually when I write a film review I will have watched the film once or twice over a couple of days, so that it is fresh in my head before putting pen to paper. With "Walk the Line" I have pretty much had it on repeat for the last two days, not because I needed to, but because it...

Parallel Lines - Blondie

Advantages: Some Superb Songs
Disadvantages: Some Tracks Are Quite Short

...to be amongst the greatest and most influential of all Albums ever released. It is up there with the likes of the Beatles, Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band and Pink Floyd's, Dark Side of the Moon. As of November 2006 it had amassed 1,695,000 over the counter sales and was the 98th biggest selling Album of all time in the UK. For me, Parallel Lines is still a classic Album but I am also proud to say that it was also the very first Album that I ever bought. Although this purchase was in around 1980 (when I was about 10 years old) and not when the Album was first released. I have since updated my rather worn out vinyl copy with a CD version. Parallel contains 12 tracks as below: Hanging On The Telephone One Way Or Another Picture This Fade Away And Radiate Pretty Baby I Know But I Don't Know 11.59 Will Anything Happen...

Review of Parallel Lines - Blondie

Audi A4 1.8T S Line 2004

Advantages: Driveability, Good Looks.
Disadvantages: Common Faults (But are not expensive to fix)

...Just upgraded to the Audi A4 1.8T S Line a few weeks ago from my Audi Cab 2.6 V6. I thought I was going to miss the power of the V6, how wrong i was!. The 1.8T with 190bhp is a quick machine and once the turbo kicks in you have hot hatch power in a saloon. These cars are ripe for tuning by way of ECU remapping, air filters, diverter valves and a number of other products which will increase BHP and torque. The S Line trim with the extra body deeper grill, spoiler, wide arches make the car look sporty without going over the top. On the interior the aluminum trimmings along with the half leather sports seat are classy and comfortable for long journeys. The suspension is stiff but solid on country road. Some things that go wrong in this model although these may have been rectified in the 2004 onward models are ignition coil...

Review of Audi A4 1.8T

Parallel Lines

Advantages: Fascinating stories that we don't normally hear.
Disadvantages: Too focused on Davenport, struggles with ending.

...I'm slightly cynical about the story of the creation of Parallel Lines. From watching the film, one is given the impression that it all just fell into place, and a documentary was the outcome. The more weathered viewer though may look at the film, and come to the impression that the whole concept was constructed. However, this does not make the stories within the film any less real or honest. Parallel Lines is by documentary filmmaker Nina Davenport, who like so many of her peers, can't seem to resist putting the camera on herself, even if she is also person operating the camera. We follow her as she travels across the US at the end of 2001, to afraid to fly after the events of September 11. Her journey will take her from California to her home in New York that overlooks the site of the World Trade Center. Living out of her car...
