Force 10 From Navarone

1978, UK, 118 mins, colour. Dir: Guy Hamilton.
Stars:Robert Shaw, Harrison Ford, Edward Fox, Babara Bach,Franco Nero, Richard Kiel.

Not a true sequel to The Guns Of Navarone but it still has the same character's (although different actors). This time they are trying to blow up a dam to stop the Germans 'cutting Yugoslavia in half'. Miller returns as the demolition expert, and if you have seen the previous film he doesn't hit off at first, but once the movie gets in flow all the characters end up likable enough to make sure the action and drama flows well. Harrison Ford makes a good job in one of his early roles and the banter between the British and American 'soldiers' keeps the opening of the film interesting.
Trivia: Bond girl Barbara Bach stars.

Fallen

1998, US, 124 mins, colour. Dir: Gregory Hoblit.
Stars:Denzel Washington, John Goodman, Donald Southerland.

Quite a dull movie that is almost redeemed by a couple of good moments. The story follows Azazel, an evil spirit that hops from body to body filling the recipient with murderous intent. The final scene out in the wilderness is good but the whole film seems like an elongated X-files episode without likeable characters. Not recommended.

The Fifth Element

1997, France/UK/US, 127 mins, colour. Dir: Luc Besson.
Stars: Bruce Willis, Gary Oldman, Milla Jovovich, Ian Holm, Luke Perry, Lee Evans.

A rip-roaring futuristic adventure battle to save the earth. Every 5,000 years a door opens up between our universe and another dimension, where a dark force waits to extinguish all life and light. Willis plays a 23rd-century New York taxi driver who finds he is the last chance for mankind. There are some great effects and action as well as some suitably tongue-in-cheek acting. Chris Tucker is great as Bruce's exotic drag queen sidekick radio presenter.
