Review of "Jackpot"

Shades of Usual Suspects, Lock Stock…, Shallow Grave - comedy mixed in with the thriller. Brilliant fun. Love the policeman/detective - very dry.

Review of "Great Expectations"

Miss Haversham (HB-C) not very good, seemed to be only one street in London, OK but not the best (1946) and anyway it is not a very good story.
