Review Of A Movie On DVD
Knowing, DVD Review
It’s difficult to put a genre to Alex Proyas latest film ‘Knowing’. Disaster movie, drams, thriller, science fiction, they’re all in there somewhere, what it certainly is, is different.
In 1959 a class of young children are asked to come up with an idea to mark the opening of their new school. One girl, Lucinda, a [...]
Mumbai Calling Series 1 DVD Review
Mumbai Calling’s pilot episode first aired in May 2007. After receiving a terrible critical reception it was instantly panned, but after a slight reinvention of the series and a well deserved second chance provided by ITV, the series began its initial run exactly two years after its failed pilot first aired, to a much more [...]

The Crow – DVD Review
The Crow is a film that has been in my DVD collection for sometime. Having recently upgraded the disc I had for the R2 Scandinavian 2 disc Limited Edition steel-book version I thought that I would review a film that is amongst my favourite movies.
Eric Draven (Brandon Lee) and his fiancée Shelly (Sofia Shinas) are [...]
The Shield Series 7, DVD Review
Season 7 is the final season of the Shield, and it’s clear from start to finish that the series hasn’t lost any of the hard-hitting, gritty realism, that’s had fans hooked since early 2002. The stories are as edgy as ever, there’s plenty of action, brutality, and a plot that twists and turns so often [...]
Learn more...Along Came Polly, DVD Review
If I were a schoolteacher I would bring John Hamburg (Writer/Director) to the front of the class and slap his legs. Not only has he copied other peoples work, he has failed to add anything original of his own. Every joke, set piece and character in this film has been done a million times.
The cast [...]
B.T.K (Bind, Torture, Kill): DVD Review
I have not seen a good, newly released horror film in sometime, so when I was asked if I wanted to review B.T.K I jumped at the chance, although I made that choice simply by looking at the cover on Amazon, even though I should know that you shouldn’t judge a book (nor a film) [...]
Learn more...Legally Blondes DVD Review
Legally Blonde and Legally Blonde 2 were both warm and cuddly, cute and fuzzy chick flicks starring Reese Witherspoon as Elle Woods, perky, pink, but ultimately shrewd and intelligent. She proved herself first in law school and then in government. Now we have a third film baring the name, this time called Legally Blondes (it’s [...]
