Advantages: QUALITY, VALUE FOR MONEY, COMPACT. Disadvantages: ABSOLUTELY NOTHING
INTRO
After the sudden death of my 7 year old Pro-form treadmill it was time to start looking for something to replace it with but being somewhat out of pocket (probably due to credit crunch/petrol prices) my budget was under £400. I must say I didn't think that I'd be able to get much treadmill for my money.
FINDING A TREADMILL
I started my searching on the Internet with a firm called fitness-superstore http://www.fitness-superstore.co.uk, which has a great range of low priced treadmills and I soon became zapped by the latest designs and specifications of the new range of treadmill on the market. As I set my budget at under £400 this helped me to narrow my searching and leave me with 3 possible treadmills that met my needs, the makes were Pro-form, Weslo, Reebok.
After some head scratching I decided that the 'Reebok I RUN ...

The boy, Quincy, (Omar Epps) has dreams of making it big time in the NBA (National Basketball Association) and has all the tools and money to do so, due to his father being ...
Advantages: Decent Plot, some good acting, cleverly worked football scenes Disadvantages: The ending is too loose and David Beckham's acting
Being a football fan the concept behind Goal seemed like one that should really appeal to me. I was however put off by Dream Team on Sky One and I was incredibly worried that Goal would just turn out to be an overly long episode of it. I did, however, feel it was unfair to judge Goal by Dream Team?s standard as for starters it had a much bigger budget and featured a number of real footballers. So having recently joined an online subscription service I took advantage of it to see a movie I wasn?t willing to actually buy.
The plot follows the story of a young kid from Mexico. At a young age Santiago?s (Kuno Becker) family escaped Mexico for Los Angeles. Some 10 years later while playing for a local team in the park he is spotted by former Newcastle midfielder Glen Foy (Stephen Dillane). He is convinced that Santiago has what it takes ...
