My Family (2000)
Funny Enough
I have been watching this since I was 5 and it first came on. I grew up with it and it is part of my life. I have all but 1 seasons and though it was good to begin with by season 4 my father looked ready to kill, him not being a fan of programs that are darn predictable.
By the fifth series the originality is wearing off and the episode conclusions are easy to predict. The plots are corny and only a few make you laugh out loud. That said, it is still something that is undemanding and easy to watch, something to watch when you are sick and have hours of lying on the couch to get over with.
Watch it if your bored or want something to drone in the background while you are doing something else. Otherwise, stay clear of this comedy monstrosity.
The King's Speech (2010)
A Wonderful Film
I went to cinema expecting a real heart-felt movie and I was not disappointed. The director has really adapted the happenings of King George VI and presented it in a interesting way.Colin Firth was magnificent in his leading roll and Helena Boham-Carter, Geoffry Rush and Micheal Gambon were all very convincing in their rolls. In a few places it did seem a little slow but this not really affect the movie at all.
The thing that really captured me about the movie was the face that a commoner had the nerve to treat the king like any man. This fact was accentuated by how I met a women half an hour after the movie who said her brother had been treated by Lynel (please excuse my spelling) and did the exact same bet with a shilling.
In all an inspiring and thoroughly enjoyable movie which definitely deserves best picture at this years Oscars.
