Swimfan (2002)
what i thought of the film!
I first wanted to see Swimfan because Shiri Appleby was in it, then because i saw the trailer and it looked interesting. i went into the cinema not expecting that much of it as it was a typical teen film. I came out happy not disapointing. It is a modern teenage tale of dangerous liasions. I think that the film will must satisify teenagers as they can sort of relate to it more than an adult could. Anyway the acting i thought was quite good. Shiri appleby portrayed her character Amy very well. She was very believable and more realistic than the other characters. I felt sorry for her character. Erika as Madison was a little disapointing. She seemed to lack something. She did make her character convincing though. It isn't anything spectactular and original, but it is a good film, to watch at home with your mates for a night in. i would recommend seeing it.
Save the Last Dance (2001)
This is one excellent movie!!!
I saw the trailer for this movie and thought well it looks quite good, but it will just be another teen romance. I was proved wrong, this film is amazing.
first heres a quick summery of the movie:
Sara (Julia Stiles) is a small town girl with a big dream, to become a ballerina and get into jullart. But when her mother suddenly dies, Sara must abandon her dream and go live with her father;someone she barely knows on chicago's gritty south side. A white girl in a predominately black neighbourhood. She feels out of place until befriended by Chenille and her brother Derek. Sparks fly between Sara and Derek, who share the love of dance. But as there love grows so does the oppostion from their family and friends. Now they face one big challenge: to stay true to their dreams and each other!!!
It has the hottest music, and dance moves. It combines lots of different elements: racism, teen romance, bullying, theft, etc
It isn't just about a white girl falling for a black guy in a white neighbourhood, but about a black guy who falls in love with a white girl in a predominately black neighbourhood.
The acting is amazing, the storyline is great, there is suspence, drama and romance. What more can you ask for a movie. Its one of the few actual great teen movies.
I recommend this film, you won't be disappointed in it. 10/10
Roswell (1999)
The most brillant show ever.
This was my favorite show. I dont understand why it got cancelled. It had such a loyal big fan base. Anyway the first season followed the lifes of 3 teenagers living in roswell. They happen to be aliens. In one moment there lives are changed, Liz (played by Shiri Appleby) gets shoot and Max rushes to heal her. The rest of the series is about the relation between the aliens and the human that now share their secret, and the sheriff is onto them and spends all his time trying to prove they are aliens. The first series was very promising. It had 8 brillant actors who had so much talent. The storylines were always satisfing and creative. Each episode we learnt interesting facts about each character, and it was filled with suspence. The most interesting aspect of the show was the central story, the relationship between Liz and Max. It was real and touching and the viewer felt for them, we followed the heartache and the happiness. The chemistry between Jason Behr and Shiri Appleby was amazing. The second season was a little less as brillant as the first, but it did have interesting storys and new characters that were good. The best episodes were the end of the world, it was filled with feelings, and watching it i was absorbed into the world of roswell and it felt almost real. The Third season was stronger, more creative and better than the previous two. I have no idea why they wanted to cancell such a brillant show. The show will always remain in my heart and i will always be a fan no matter what!!! If it was on dvd i would recommend you buy it, it wouldn't be a waste of money, but money will spend. 10/10
Deal of a Lifetime (1999)
The only interesting thing in this movie!
Okay i admit the plot was okay. It was watchable. The only thing worth seeing in this movie is Shiri Appleby. Her acting is brillant. She looks beautiful and comes across on screen very well. I like the movie because Shiri is brillant in it. But if your not a fan of hers, then i wouldn't recommend it. The story is alright, but it lacks creativity and suspence. It could have been better. Overall a good film for something to watch if you have nothing else to do!!!
