633 Squadron, a review by Rich


Fogg is fine Rick - it's how my head feels after last night anyway  :cheers:  :stars:

And on through the Fjords of Norway...



The brave 633 Squadron have enjoyed many successful sorties, but they are now assigned a seemingly suicidal mission - to bomb a water plant in occupied Norway which is shielded by mountain terrain and guarded by heavy, anti-aircraft artillery. Their task is made even more hazardous by German air raids and the capture of a resistance leader who has been helping them.

Don't watch this expecting to be challenged. Wooden acting, posh accents, an implausible script but plenty of entertainment.
Despite the wooden airplane models repeatedly shown and the poor acting, this war film is good viewing and has a better score than Dambusters. Keep your eye out for Jonny Briggs too  ;)   5/10

Plot:
Anton Tobias (Devon Sawa, Wild America) is a channel-surfing, junk-food munching, couch potato burn-out who can't control the murderous impulses of his recently possessed hand. With the help of his zombiefied buddies, Mick (Seth Green, Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me) and Pnub (Elden Henson, The Mighty), Anton's got to stop the rampaging devil appendage before it takes total control of his life and ruins any chance he has with class hottie Molly (Jessica Alba, Never Been Kissed). Vivica A. Fox (Independence Day) and Jack Noseworthy (The Brady Bunch Movie) co-star in this wickedly funny horror comedy.

Extras:
  • Scene Access


My Thoughts:

I found this one to be a fun little comedy horror. The big plus for me has to be the fact that it is an early role for the lovely Jessica Alba. I never been a fan of the whole stoner thing so that took away from it a little for me. But I definitely found it to be worth the time put in to watch it.

Tom's Random Star Trek Reviews, a review by Tom


TNG 6.06 True Q
WriterDirector: Robert Scheerer
Cast: Patrick Stewart (Capt. Jean-Luc Picard), Jonathan Frakes (Cmdr. William Riker), LeVar Burton (Lt. Cmdr. Geordi La Forge), Michael Dorn (Lieutenant Worf), Gates McFadden (Dr. Beverly Crusher), Marina Sirtis (Counselor Deanna Troi), Brent Spiner (Lt. Commander Data), Olivia D'Abo (Amanda), John P. Connolly (Lote), John de Lancie (Q)

Though this episode is mostly about Amanda, a guest character, without much involvement of the core cast, I always liked this episode.
This episode shows a much more serious side of Q than the previous episodes. There is hardly any banter between him and the Enterprise crew. But I liked it, when he changed Dr. Crusher into a dog while she was arguing with him :)
