The Last Drop (2006)
Low budget movie lacking real action, credible plot development and professional acting experience
I've just seen "The Last Drop". Honestly, I had to watch it twice to see the whole film, for it failed to pull me in like other wartime-movies usually do. Having seen so many excellent wartime-movies, my expectations were at the beginning fairly high. Unfortunately, I was left disappointed for "The Last Drop" is no match for great movies such as "The Great Raid" or "Saving Private Ryan". The film lacks tension and suspense, as it shifts from one scene to another, as well as professional acting to carry out a good quality performance. I agree with the rest of you who claim the accents being indescribable and improper for everyone seems to speak with his own variety of British accent. That's just weird. To my opinion, the whole production of the movie is bad as the storyline loses thread and a viewer is thus left confused and rather disturb. On the other hand, putting in real footage makes the film a little bit more plausible and somehow makes up for the weak script reflected in excruciatingly poor dialogue. There is some ribald sense of humor to spice things up, yet not enough to bring characters into life. All in all, the scriptwriter and the producer of the film provide a viewer with low budget special effects, bad scenery and a sort of a mish-mash of old (jazz) and modern (rock!! :S ) soundtrack music. So, if you really do want to watch a wartime-movie, try to avoid this one and pick the miniseries "Band Of brothers" or one of the above mentioned movies instead.
Denver, the Last Dinosaur (1988)
Denver, the last Dinosour
Heya Denver fans! The animation is a cartoon's classic & one of my favorite too (and yes, it was broadcast in Europe as well. Including my tiny central-European country, Slovenia! =:) Oh, how I miss the 80's cartoons!! Honestly, they were way better than today's children shows. More imaginative, creative, full of fun with good morals, more substance, great storyline and excellent character voices. Computer animated shows of today lack all of these features. So all of you, who agree and want to bring back all the shows so that the kids of today's generation would see the entertainment that these cartoons brought to us, please log on the side posted bellow and sign a petition for a rerun of the 80's best cartoons!

The Million Dollar Hotel (2000)
...
After reading so many bad reviews and comments on The Million Dollar Hotel movie, I decided to write one. Unlike most of them who have seen the movie, I must say that I perceive The Million Dollar Hotel as a good stylish film. I personally think that movies should sometimes be listened to instead of just watched in order to get the best of it. This one is just magical. I believe that the characters themselves had a better grasp on reality than most people I know. The soundtrack is absolutely beautiful and the cast is amazing. By that I mean especially Mila Jovovich and Jeremy Davies. He gives a fantastic and inspired performance. He is a true actor's actor. Jeremy is also brilliant and impressive as a narrator and gives the film a special drill. Besides all that, the script is so capturing that some parts of it like " a man's home is a man's castle" will stay in my mind forever. Maybe the movie is not for everyday's audiences, but I would recommend it to anyone who believes film is not just for escapist entertainment but for awaking our senses and stirring our minds, because there's no doubt that this movie is a thinker.
