Matilda - Special Edition [1996]

Film review of Matilda (1996)
Star rating-\\\gg

Matilda was originally written as a children¡¦s novel by Roald Dahl (tales of the unexpected) in 1988. His wry wit and humour certainly makes the book an enjoyable read and this humour still shows in Danny DeVito¡¦s movie version of the novel with a contrast of both American and English actors.

The film is about a young girl called Matilda played wonderfully by Mara Wilson (Miss Doubtfire). Though at the time, Wilson was fairly new to the acting scene; her acting skills still comes across as charming.

Another great actor in the film is the director, Danny DeVito (Mars Attacks), who also plays both the narrator and Matilda¡¦s father. DeVito is both ... Read More:

The Bucket List [2008]

CD-Charts > DVD > By Price
starring: Sean Hayes, Jack Nicholson, Beverly Todd, Morgan Freeman
directed by: Rob Reiner

Release Date July 07, 2008
This film left me laughing and my missus crying!

A long-time fan of both Jack Nicholson and Morgan Freeman I went into this film expecting to entertained somehow at least. I also expected it to be bittersweet.

I didn't expect a film about two men with cancer to somehow leave me feeling I'd just watched a "feelgood" film. But that's exactly what this is..

The two lead characters are polarised in their attitudes to life, their success in life thus far and their outlook on their shared news that they have been diagnosed with terminal cancer.

What follows is their decision to enjoy their last few months on the Earth attaining as many of their ambitions on their newly devised "Bucket List" before they ... Read More:

Scrubs : Complete Season 4

CD-Charts > DVD > By Price
by: Scrubs

Release Date September 18, 2006
Scrubs is now well established, and i am a massive fan, but now i'm watching the final series and cant help to look back and think "Why is it not as good anymore?"

The fourth season, for me, was the peak of Scrubs. We got to know the characters a lot better and developed relationships with them and therefore shared their feelings. Plus of course the Janitor got a much larger role!!! We were also treated with better story lines, creative camera shots and stunts, and of course guset stars like Heather Graham, Colin Farrell, Tara Reid and Matthew Perry. Not to forget Zach Braff having the oppertunity to direct a couple of episodes. All in all definately the best Season form the entire season, statr to finish!

One Tree Hill - Series 1

CD-Charts > DVD > By Price
starring: Chad Michael Murray, James Lafferty, Hilarie Burton, Bethany Joy Lenz, Paul Johansson
directed by: Bryan Gordon

Release Date September 05, 2005
Who could not love One Tree Hill. We only starting watching it this year and we are absolutely hooked on it. We have Series 1,2,3, and just bought Series 4, half way through it and still the show is as great as ever. I cannot wait to see Series 5. One Tree Hill is blessed with great actors, great story lines, excellent music, and some really important issues raised in each series. I never really got into the OC...I think One Tree Hill is universal, and has more realistic people in it.

Nathan is a hottie... Pouting Sexy Chad is a younger Brad, the girls are all beautiful, Brooke is stunningly beautiful and her bitchy lines are classics, Payton also beautiful..poor Payton she goes through alot but dont worry Payton at least your hair always looks ... Read More:

Made Of Honour [2008]

CD-Charts > DVD > By Price
starring: Patrick Dempsey, Michelle Monaghan, Kevin McKidd, Kathleen Quinlan, Sydney Pollack
directed by: Paul Weiland

Release Date September 29, 2008
In Made of Honour, Patrick Dempsey plays Tom, a nice guy but a serial dater whose sex life is dominated by rules, i.e. no back-to-backs, no phone call until at least 24 hours after getting a phone number, and so on. He has no emotional attachment to any of these women, and in fact, the only constant female in his life is Hannah (Michelle Monaghan). They've been best friends since college and are pretty much inseparable.

When Hannah goes to Scotland for six weeks to work, Tom has an epiphany. Yes, you've guessed it, he's in love with Hannah, and has been for a very long time. He decides to tell her as soon as she's back on American soil. However, things don't quite go to plan. For Hannah has someone in tow... Colin (Kevin McKidd). He's a rich Scotsman and ... Read More:

Morecambe And Wise : Complete BBC Christmas Specials

CD-Charts > DVD > By Price
starring: Eric Morecambe, Ernie Wise, Eric Porter, Fenella Fielding, Ann Hamilton

Release Date November 12, 2007
The quality of the recordings, particularly of the earliest shows, is limited by the archival nature of the original material but it is not bad.

The humour of Morecambe and Wise tends to 'date' somewhat with time, but many of the sketches are so original and amusing that they have become 'classics'. It is easy to see why so many rich and famous entertainers were prepared to risk their reputations by appearing in the show.

Morecambe and Wise can be extremely funny without being in the least offensive. What a shame that witless oafs now manage to be extremely offensive in the name of comedy, sometimes without being the least bit funny. This collection provides genuine entertainment which will amuse entire families.

Release Date September 05, 2005
I thought these episodes were better than most of series 1 and 2, generally more interesting. Exception: The rock star child kidnap episode was truly dreadful.
Rupert Penry-Jones as Adam Carter is ; in my opinion, better than Mat MacFadayen ever was.

Release Date February 13, 2006
This is no ordinary DVD. This DVD ran me through a world of emotions and some of the things in it are simply mind blowingly realistic. Scrubs doesnt feel like a TV show the brilliant actors make it seem as if your actually there. Buy this DVD otherwise you will be missing out!!

Bagpuss : Complete [1974]

CD-Charts > DVD > By Price
directed by: Oliver Postgate, Peter Firmin

Release Date April 04, 2005
Petend you have kids, I bought this because I am a bagpuss fan and even though I am 36 and was single when I bought this I was not discouraged. It brought back my childhood and triggered many great memories of the 70's when my late mother would watch bagpuss with me, heck even my dad likes it. It even helped me nab a girlfriend as after I told her "just because I own the Complete Bagpuss on DVD, I am not a soft touch!" mind you As I work in a nursery this may play a Part.
Bagpuss is Briliant

I have always loved this show from season 1 and the quality of writing is the best among all the BBC TV shows. 24 should take a que from this series and make it's storylines more believable.Rupert-Penry Jones is just an added bonus to this show:-) I just wish each season had 24 episodes....BBC listen!
