Horne & Corden (2009)
excruciating
I've always felt that Horne and Corden are overrated in the flavour of the month Gavin and Stacey but it seems they are beginning to believe their own hype.
This " sketch show" represents the nadir in a shameful line of allegedly comic failures the BBC has produced in recent years.
The arrogance of the duo is that anything they do is funny and they don't really have to try..they're not the first TV celebrities to think this of themselves and they probably won't be the last.
The thing is: fat people are not intrinsically funny, homosexuals are not intrinsically funny.
The thin one is not funny and quite dour but he is not offensive.The fat one is just downright annoying.He has no talent at all.
Avoid...and pray they don't get a second series.
In a Dark Place (2006)
roadkill
this movie is an absolute stinker.It has absolutely nothing to commend it.
The acting is uninvolved and incapable of involving the audience.It feels as if the actors were going through the motions and didn't care one jot about the script or characters.
There is no suspense, excitement or drama in the film.I was completely bored and frankly confused at times.
I learned from reading other user comments that the movie was inspired by a book. Perhaps if I had read the book I would have cared more about what was happening on screen. I don't think its worth the effort of finding out.
Jane and the Lost City (1987)
rubbish
Whoever made this nonsense completely missed the point. Jane is a silly comic strip to titillate without being sleazy.
This giant mess tries to be funny and exciting but is just a shambles. There is not one decent performance in it..even the usually reliable Jasper Carrott is painfully unfunny.
The American bloke whose name escapes me is just as rubbiush as he was in flash gordon.
Maud Adams tries as a villianess but she is a bit long in the tooth for this type of thing. All of these things would not matter if the girl was sexy or funny or likable.She is not. Kirsten Holmes faded into obscurity after this and so much the better.
I've flushed more entertaining things than this down the toilet. Avoid
