The challenge this time is to post reviews featuring anagrams. Each review can contain either an anagram of something relevant to the film (such as all or part of its title, a character name or a key phrase) or two/three/four configurations of any set of letters. However, please don't post anagrams which are provided by the film and with which nothing else has been done (such as "Stanley Yelnats digs holes").

I have chosen this theme because Cheese_Ed requested it some time ago and because anagrams can be either straightforward or ars magna.

Please post a specific link to each review and give clear spoiler warnings where appropriate.

You are welcome to post existing reviews ~~(although asked to limit it to your best ten at most)~~, but you are particularly encouraged to write new ones fitting the requirement.

Like all challenges, this will be completely open-ended, due to the delay in approvals and the fact that inspiration does not come at will. Good luck!

Other challenges:
F.W.F.R.ers' challenge 1: alliteration
F.W.F.R.ers' challenge 2: puns on film titles
F.W.F.R.ers' challenge 3: turn a phrase
F.W.F.R.ers' challenge 4: The Man Who Knew Infinity
F.W.F.R.ers' challenge 5: uniqueness
F.W.F.R.ers' challenge 6: lengthiness
F.W.F.R.ers' challenge 7: matching reviews
F.W.F.R.ers' challenge 8: find the hidden message
F.W.F.R.ers' challenge 9: going for a song
F.W.F.R.ers' challenge 10: responses
F.W.F.R.ers' challenge 11: rhyme

The Da Vinci Code is filled with anagrams.

I like ones where there is a cryptic crossword-style anagram indicator:
Do dsyxleics like anagrams?
Grate film
Smax

A new one paralleling an old one for which I similarly added the film, but which was then surpassed by loads of other great ideas.

I forgot about this Swiss Gang Bang review which I think was inspired by your review.

(Link updated - it move to my most popular review of the film!)

Ch_Ed, I had already voted for most of yours, as I am keen on both your reviews in general and anagrams, but I somehow hadn't seen that one. It's so good. I also love the fact that so many of yours include the aforementioned anagram indicator. It just goes to prove that there is so much more quality on this site than just lazy puns.

RockGolf, that's a bad link. However, upon getting to the right review, I had already voted for it.

I have got to get a four-way anagram through if it's the last thing I do (not that I have tried before).

I only added that request previously because in some categories people can just post tens and tens of reviews; I should have (and now have) removed it for this round where there would not be that many submissions.

However, you do need to change some of your links so that they only show the relevant reviews.

In the U.R.L., make it Rows=1 and if need be change it from Start=1.
