Jarhead (2005)
not bad
I thought Jake Gyllenhaal was very good in his role. Jamie Foxx didn't sell his role as well,(although I think he's a good actor).
the story does a pretty good job of showing you the trials(physically and mentally)of the enlisted marines. the story had some moments where it really made you think but other times I thought the story was flat and boring. I found myself moving in my seat more than a few times,which means I felt the story dragging.
over all I would suggest you see this movie,but only for a matinée price.
my better suggestion would be for you to watch FULL METAL JACKET. I believe this movie better portrays the full gamut of emotion and action in a marines life.this movie will be much more entertaining for you.
respectfully, just an opinion
Shameless (2004)
don't forget us in the U.S.(DVD)
i've just returned from a trip to the U.K. and i was able to catch a few episodes of Shameless. i thought the show was great! it portrayed a deep view of family issues while throwing in some good laughs. poor Frank,his character is brilliant! a poor loser with no sense of direction.his only focus is a pint at the pub and to dodge the creditors. the show has a wide arrange of characters that make up the family and the kids do a great job. i've just gotten it on my cable system but it's edited(thanks America) i would love to purchase the DVD but it is not available in the U.S.
DON'T FORGET US IN America.PLEASE MAKE THE DVD AVAILABLE TO US!!
the show has definitely hooked me
