Advantages: Decent storyline Disadvantages: Very dull, drags on alot, too long
Cal had first thought.
After being called one of the best thrillers of the year I had been really looking forward to watching State Of Play and after it finally began showing on Sky Box Office on Monday I jumped at the chance to view what everybody else had been writing rave reviews about.
State Of Play starts off at a quick pace with a double murder happening in the first five minutes however from there on things start to go downhill. The film becomes very slow and bogged down, it seems that the director has chosen an overcomplicated plot to market this film as a tense, clever suspense thriller which this film most certainly is not. Having said that, this film isn?t too difficult to follow it was simply the fact that I found it so dull I quickly lost interest and therefore the plotline became slightly lost on me. I had such high ...
Advantages: 5 for £10.00 deal for 4 nights at blockbusters... so i didn't feel too ripped off Disadvantages: dull, boring, tedious, un-thrilling (if that's a word), and drawn out.
I have been watching a few DVDs recently, mainly because blockbusters are having a bit of a good deal on at the moment, although not as good as the deal they had on over the school summer holidays.
Anyway, one of the ones I rented was called ?State of Play? starring a few well known faces, and coming highly recommended by the short bald guy behind the counter, plus the outstanding claims on the DVD box itself?
?Unmissable? stated the Daily Mirror?
?Scorching? claim the Daily Mail?
?An outstanding thriller? shouted the Telegraph?
?Electrifying? gasped James King of Radio 1 (who?)
So, with all this good press, and the recommendation from the guy behind the counter at blockbusters, I thought that this political thriller of a movie should enter my choice of 5 for a tenner for four night offer.
So the other night I ...
Advantages: Amazing views, iconic building Disadvantages: Queues!!!
This year Mr Tart and myself found ourselves in New York (well, I mean we had planned to be there!). I?d been a couple of times before but Mr Tart had never been so I designated the Empire State Building (ESB) as a must see.
SOME FACTS:
The ESB was built in 1930. At the time it was the world?s tallest building and it is still up there in the tallest buildings list (currently number 15). The ESB is 1472 ft tall (if you include the antenna) and there are 102 floors.
LOCATION:
Ok so you may have guessed that the ESB is in New York City! It is at 350 5th Avenue and the intersection with 34th Street. Trust me you can?t miss it! The nearest subway station is 34th Street/Penn.
PRICES:
The ESB is one of America?s most visited attractions so it?s never going to be that cheap to visit. The visit costs $20 for adults ...
