This film holds a special place in my heart as it was one of my wife's favorite. While not the best film in the world I really enjoyed it. I liked both the setting and the storyline. Matter of fact I think the last time I watched this one I rated it a little low. Well worth the time put in to watch it.

All I Want, a review by Rich

All I Want



Seventeen year-old Jones (Elijah Wood) has decided to avoid college in favour of renting an apartment, and attempting to learn from life while trying to become a writer. As he tries to gain his mother's (Elizabeth Perkins) approval and figure out his father's whereabouts, he becomes involved with both Lisa (Mandy Moore), a struggling actress, and Jane (Franka Potente), an older photographer. When Jane is involved in a car accident, and an ex-boyfriend comes to take care of her, Jones realises how strong his feelings are for her. He then enlists his strange neighbour, Brad (Aaron Pearl), to help win Jane's love. Look out for a cameo by Deborah Harry as Ma Mabley, an over-sexed seller of beds.

Well written and enjoyable tale, an easy watch that keeps you smiling most of the way through.
Nothing outstanding, acting is fine, the quirky storyline gently pulls you through, with the bonus of Debbie Harry as a busty and horny shopkeeper.

The Flash Marathon, a review by addicted2dvd

Lora Zane as Angel
Don Hood as Frank Dejoy

My Thoughts:
Brittany watched this episode with me... which means there was no skipping past the theme. Though any other time I do. Thankfully this set has the next chapter right after the opening theme. Britt and I both agree... Julio... for a scientist he is pretty dumb. In  several episodes he sees something that should make it easy for him to figure out Barry is The Flash. And this happens four (Yes Four!) times in this episode alone. I can't remember for anything in the world if Julio ever finds out the truth about Barry or not. But over all this is a good episode. It has an interesting story with a few laughs.

My Rating:
