I've added an index to filmID (I think), but I'm having the same problem.

According to MySQLCC, the SQL that would create the reviews table now looks like this

CREATE TABLE `reviews` (
`id` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL auto_increment,
`filmID` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL default '0',
`author` varchar(20) NOT NULL default '',
`date` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL default '0',
`region` tinyint(1) unsigned NOT NULL default '0',
`review` longtext NOT NULL,
`rating` tinyint(1) unsigned NOT NULL default '0',
PRIMARY KEY (`id`),
KEY `FOREIGN` (`filmID`)
);

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
