Masters Of Sex – Season 1 (DVD Review)

August 3, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Starring: Michael Sheen, Lizzy Caplan, Beau Bridges, Nicholas D’Agosto, Teddy Sears
Director: Various
Running Time: 649 mins
Certificate: 15
Release Date: July 28th 2014 (UK)

Masters Of Sex is certainly a provocative title, and one that could promise a lot but deliver little. Thankfully though that’s far from the case with this excellent series, which takes a fictionalised look at the real-life Dr. Williams Master (Martin Sheen) and Virginia Johnson (Lizzy Caplan), who revolutionised our understanding of sex by looking at it scientifically.

It’s amazing to think that in the 1950s we’d split the atom, begun to understand quantum physics, built skyscrapers that reached over 1,000 feet into the sky, and yet we knew remarkably little about something as fundamental as sex, largely due to prurience. [Read more…]

From Prada To Nada (DVD)

March 2, 2012 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Starring: Camilla Belle, Alexa Vega, Wilmer Valderramma, Nicholas D’Agosto
Director: Angel Garcia
Running Time: 102 mins
Certificate: 12
Release Date: March 5th, 2012

Over the years, Jane Austen’s tales have been adapted and moulded into all sorts of forms by the world of film and TV, but one we’ve haven’t had until now is Sense & Sensibility brought into the 21st Century and given a Latina spin! And let’s just ignore they called it From Prada To Nada, which is a spectacularly awful title.

Alexa Vega and Camilla Belle play sisters Mary and Nora Dominguez, who’ve grown up rich and pampered in the best bits of LA. However when their father kicks the bucket, they discover he was essentially bankrupt, which necessitates a move to the much poorer environs of their aunt’s house in East LA. The pampered princesses must learn a few lessons about living without endless supplies of cash, as well as that love isn’t just about finding a rich match, while reconnecting with their Latino roots.

Final Destination 5 (DVD)

December 23, 2011 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Starring: Nicholas D’Agosto, Emma Bell, Miles Fisher, Ellen Roe, Tony Todd
Director: Steven Quale
Running Time: 92 mins
Certificate: 15
Release Date: December 26th, 2011

I’m slightly worried I’m about to die. Before I even put the Final Destination 5 DVD in the player, I had a premonition that it would be about someone foreseeing a terrible event that allows them and a bunch others to survive, followed by an hour of death trying to claim the lives of those who managed to escape its clutches. As I knew all that before the film started playing, going by the rules of the franchise it surely means I’m going to die in an overly elaborate fashion anytime now!

This time around the disaster is a spectacularly collapsing bridge, and it’s a guy called Sam (Nicholas D’Agosto) who’s having the premonition, which allows him to lead a bunch of his friends and work colleagues off the bridge just before all hell breaks loose. [Read more…]
