The decisions made at the would lead to the systematic extermination of over 14 million Europeans, of which 6 million were Jews, and would be forever remembered as the ConspiracyRatings Criterion4 Stars - Historically important film, considered a classic.

Evita, a review by Rich


struggle through hungary...



Title: Evita

Runtime:129
Certificate:PG
Year:1996
Genres:Musical

Plot:In her Golden Glove winning role (Best Actress 1996-Comedy or Musical) MADONNA shines as Eva Peron, wife of Presiden Juan Peron, whose desperate ambition to climb to the top saw her trade her only asset for one shot at power and fame.

Co-starring Antonia Banderas (Shrek 2) and featuring the Academy Award winning original song "You Must Love Me", EVITA is the epic true story of the charismatic, yet controversial, devoted yet ruthless, deprived yet triumphant woman who inspired the Andrew Lloyd Webber-Tim Rice smash hit Broadway musical.
Also features the hits "Don't Cry for Me Argentina", "Buenos Aires" and "Another Suitcase in Another Hall".
>My Review:

Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles: The Complete First Season marathon, a review by Dragonfire


What He Beheld
Sarah and John's true identities are discovered by a mysterious operative. Comartie's infiltration of the FBI has devastating consequences.

My Thoughts

I really enjoyed this episode and think it worked pretty well as a season finale.  There were still doubts about Cameron and Derek that seem to have all sorts of potential for the second season.  I like that the FBI agent has had to realize that there are some very strange things going on and I think it will be interesting to see how he continues to cope with that.  I loved the birthday present Derek gave John.  It was very touching and also opened up some possibilities for the second season as well that should be interesting. 

Overall I've really enjoyed this series and am glad I decided to pick up the DVD set.  It is a really entertaining show that has added new things to John and Sarah's story while also remaining true to the source material of the first two movies.  Now I want to start on the second season episodes right now.   :laugh:
