"Sturges takes a whole assortment of disagreeable elements—cliché rich people, cliché cardsharps, snakes, and slapstick—and makes one of the greatest romantic and funny comedies. The cast one must adore—never better."

Mary became known as the Queen of Hip Hop and that's apparent with elements of it here. (1 more)
Collaboration with P Diddy, produced a gritty new sound, emotionally charged and born of Mary J's own experiences.

A definite step down in quality in season 3 as Noah (*groan*) takes centre stage again. A lot of good character development here and interesting psychological elements, but overall a disappointing part of the series.

"Further into the process, I wanted to balance out the rhythmic elements with acoustic material. I love The Kinks and this track was on repeat for a long time while we were making the record."

Ingmar Bergman’s masterpiece is also the greateat film ever made. Containing elements of Dickens, Dostoevsky and magical realism this epic of childhood combines every era of Bergman’s amazing career and surpasses them all on the way.

A good action film which takes the best elements from the games and uses them on the big screen. It has some good set piece scenes and big budget effects, but overall it's far from great.

"It looked like a documentary. It’s like a found footage movie, but in the hood, and this s–t is incredible, the way he flipped it, because you could tell some of the elements were reenacted, but some of those elements look real as s–t. No lie. And this guy that’s starring in it — his last name is Snow; I don’t remember his first name — he’s not an actor. Not an actor. This is his real life. I’m tellin’ you man, this movie…"

superbly cast and they play out the characters well. (2 more)
This is a horror show, but it has comic elements too.
Myths and legends are what the story is based on.
Superb show - full of horror, but great.

Traditional Bond film elements
Eva Green

Great locations
Brilliantly Bond
Started brilliantly, slowed a little in the middle but overall was very enjoyable. Much grittier than other James Bond films to date.
