Comments: I like you but you do seem prejudiced in favor of British films. I am an American and sense that bias. I believe you were very critical of Leaving Las Vegas and I for one put that film on the top of my must-see pictures, motion pictures. Nicholas Cage is a genius and Elizabeth Shue is his equal. She deserved an Oscar. He got his, But I still love you. You are so veddy veddy British. I for one think Independence Day stinks. Good special effects but rotten story line. And there you have it. (this third time around I have my spelling correct. Ha!)

Comments: I've just finished reading a couple of the reviews you have compiled and feel compelled to raise a few points. Firstly,I was disappointed that you have neglected the following movies, 'This Boy's Life', 'Regarding Henry', and,'Witness' all of which are superb films.Why did you miss them out? Secondly,I am glad that you didn't fall in to the trap of saying 'Casino'was a top class film,simply because Mr De Niro starred and Mr Scorsese directed.Granted it was an entertaining film but surely not in the class of 'The Deer Hunter' thanks for a fantastic site.

Comments: I've just read the review on Bridge on the River Kwai. The River Kwai is in Thailand, not Burma. The reviewer states that the film is based on reality. That should read, very, very loosely based on reality. The film is a farce in the nse. Thank you. :-)

Comments: Great pages, good reviews. Like it. Just watched 'Freeway'. Wicked! Watch it, review it. It's got a totally nails bitch in it and it's totally violent but i haven't seen such a weirdly funny film ever. It's nasty but hilarious. Favourite films are:- Despirado, betty blue, trainspotting, a time to kill (where our man totally elbows the bad bloke), pulp fiction, dazed and confuzed and.... can't think of the rest but there are many. cheers. seeyalater

Comments: I like the wide range of films in your review archives. It's good to see that this isn't just another site featuring amateurishly written reviews of the latest cinema releases. Keep up the good work. My favourite movie is Jaws and the best movie I have ever seen is Taxi Driver (so far). Funnily enough, the worst movie I have ever seen is Jaws: The Revenge.

Comments: 1) I like Damian's review! 2) I hope you can have more crtique of Hollywood film and US independent as well as contemporary European film (at least I can't find the review of Three Colour Trilogy by Kielslowski 3) I hope that the review of the film is more an analysis of a film rather than a summary of its plot 4) Can I use some of the review posted in the site? Please reply.
