A good watchable Ukrainian fantasy movie. It is about a schoolboy who fears heights who gets sucked into some sort of vortex and is transported thousands of years into the past. the acting was very good and I was quite impressed with the fight scenes which was very good. It did not look like the special effects was cheap either. And to top it all it had a good storyline

The only problem was the sub titles which were a bit hit and miss in places as in some parts it is at a good speed that you can read it , then in other parts the sub title just flew past.

I have just watched Soylent green - never heard of it before just stumbled upon it while channel hopping.

I wasn't expecting to stay with the film, but I got taken in by the story line. 1973 movie and people supposedly in 2022. What struck me was "Soylent green" (Soya lentil) made from people.

The film really got me thinking about stuff which is going on in the world today with all this genetically modified foods. I mean, if they can give cows dead animals to eat - cows are meant to be vegetarians!! (which we now get mad cows disease) - what the hell are we eating with all these preservatives and stuff in foods today.

Although this film is slow moving, it really gets you thinking what the government maybe hiding from all of us.

A great moment in the film is when Charlton Heston steals some food from a rich persons house (Things we take for granted) A bar of soap, am apple, a small bit of beef and some alcohol. When Edward G Robinsons sees and touches these, he breaks down and cries.

Another great moment in the film is when Charlton Heston and Edward G Robinson sit round the table to have dinner with the food which they now have. They saviour every moment, and it was funny when Charlton Heston states he has never eaten like this before or even with a fork!!

Again, we today take for granted the food, drink and stuff we have in abundance. What will we do if they are no longer there as in this film!!!

A worthy film to take note of

I have been reading all your comments, and I think some of the comments are a bit overboard in the dislikes!! Come on lets not take this too seriously or take things to heart, this movie might not be in the Oscar stakes, and Monique may in time become a good actress - but it is nice to see a film which has a lovely happy ever after.

I think it is nice to see a movie which has the fat girl being chased by a hunk who loves big sized women, because in this world on size 0, its like fat girls don't exist unless they are fancied by fat men.

Yes, the movie is not taxing on the brain and it certainly is easy on the thinking brain after a reality bitten hard days at work.

I enjoyed the film immensely and i am just treating as one entertaining forgettable film. Just like the movie for what it is - an easy on the brain feel good movie.

I Was very surprised at reading the comments on Chef and that the comments are from mostly people oversees!!! (where are you Brit's to support this) I remember when Chef came out in England, and I only watched the first season which i thought was absolutely hilarious. My favourites where Everton and also Chef's father.

I am very surprised that it is being shown on BBC America, as It has not been repeated in England as far as I can a remember (correct me if i'm wrong - it may of been repeated on cable before I actually had it).....

BBC PLEASE REPEAT IN ENGLAND

I'm not really into these slash wrist type movies and as a general rule, I normally tend to avoid. But this morning on True Movies 2, I was caught of guard watching this as I could not find the remote to turn the T.V over.

I must say, watching this film did give me food for thought. It is based on a true story about Susan at 14 was out of control. Her parents force her into a drug rehab program to recover. They also uncover that she is suffering from cancer, and by 15, she has met and fallen in love with Brian.

It is a very tangled and not straight forward love story, especially when Susan becomes pregnant and her cancer seems to be spreading, and her and Brian having to make difficult decisions.

It is very heartbreaking, and I must say, the acting from Mary Stuart Masterson, prompted me to look on IMDb to see who she is.

It did not cry as I have a very hard exterior, but for most this would be a tearjerker.

I only discovered this movie while on holiday in Cuba. I went back to my hotel to get a towel and this movie started.

Well I thought let me just watch the beginning as I have sometime to kill before I go for my catamaran ride Well that was it, I was hooked, couldn't believed that this sweet girl from Africa (lindsey Lohan), could slowly but surely get entwined with the monsters called the "Plastics".

I really thought it was hilarious at times and only got up to the part when Lindsey Lohan threw a party at her parents house........................................

Well I went on my boat ride, missed the rest of the film and only caught up with it when I came back to England.

well I must say it got more funnier then it got a disappointing in the end (all that slushy apology nonsense) but great fun all the same.

I've decided now I,m gonna become a Plastic !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well this gloomy doomey looking film, really set of my miserable day which was just as gloomy and miserable outside. This bleak film set mostly in marsh land added a certain slash wrist genre to this film.

Davidson (John Mills) is a man who has just been released from doing a 12 year stint in prison for a crime he did not commit. Seething with revenge, he starts out looking for the people who set him up so he can administer his revenge.

I must say, after a while this film was engaging, and I sat through and watched to the end. At times is was slow and wordy but also came over as a bit of early Hitchcock film noir.
