National Treasure 2 - Book Of Secrets [2007]

CD-Charts > DVD > By Price
starring: Nicolas Cage, Diane Kruger, Jon Voight, Helen Mirren, Harvey Keitel
directed by: Jon Turteltaub

Release Date June 02, 2008
This was one of the most unimaginative, derivative and just plain boring films I've ever had to sit through. It tries to be a cross between a Dan Brown thriller and an Indiana Jones film and merely succeeds in reminding the viewer how superior those two genres are. The acting is terrible too. The new Indiana Jones film is 100 times better than this. Avoid!

Pirates Of The Caribbean Trilogy [2003]

CD-Charts > DVD > By Price
starring: Bill Nighy, Keira Knightley, Johnny Depp, Geoffrey Rush, Orlando Bloom
directed by: Gore Verbinski

Release Date November 19, 2007
Due to so many varied reviews on Amazon about the individual DVD's in the series,I will limit my comments just to say that this box set represents superb family entertainment whatever your age and is possibly one of the best value box sets around.
As family viewing goes,it will keep the kids quiet for hours but the individual films are lengthy so spread your viewing over a couple of weekends to prevent over doing it.The movies themselves are great fun and with so many gruesome characters, make sure the more nervous ones in your family who are old enough to watch have someone to snuggle up to,just in case. In fact,in some of the scenes,I could have done with snuggling up to someone myself!
This is great entertainment and if you have not seen ... Read More:

Pirates of the Caribbean 3: At World's End [2007]

CD-Charts > DVD > By Price
starring: Johnny Depp, Orlando Bloom, Keira Knightley, Chow Yun-Fat, Geoffry Rush
directed by: Gore Verbinski

Release Date November 19, 2007
This is an amazing film, top notch i have seen all of the trilogy and this film is possibly the best, ignore any one who has rated this 1 star and has said they have only watched 30min of it, the film goes on for awhile but that makes it all the better in my opinion, the cast is amazing as always with even more new characters, the effects are quality and has a great story, i strongly recomend this to any one who loves the other two films and has not watched this film yet, and to any film lover, because i think any one can enjoy this, but would be an easier watch if the first two films were watched first, but this is one of the best trilogy's ever made, if not the best.

Spooks : Complete BBC Series 2 [2002]

CD-Charts > DVD > By Price
starring: Megan Dodds
directed by: Sam Miller;Rob Bailey;Cilla Ware;Ciaran Donnelly (II);Andy Wilson (IV);Julian Simpson;Omar Madha;Bharat Nalluri;Alrick Riley;Jonny Campbell;Antonia Bird;Gary Wicks;Jeremy Lovering;Justin Chadwick

Release Date September 20, 2004
In the DVD set that I have, the disc with the face of Tom Quinn indicated as disc 1 is actually disc 2. Imagine my puzzlement when I was waiting to see how the cliffhanger from series 1 would be resolved. Of course, if you look at where the indicating arrow on the rack in the opening menu is pointing, you then know which episode you should be viewing. I am a fan of Spooks and have watched every series to date but like a number of other people, I find the DVD set up annoying. A brief guide to each episode or at least an episode title on the case sleeve would help. I have resorted to inserting written notes in the case !

Jeeves And Wooster - The Complete Collection [1990]

CD-Charts > DVD > By Price
starring: Stephen Fry, Hugh Laurie
directed by: Robert Young, Simon Langton, Ferdinand Fairfax

Release Date September 01, 2008
For me, Stephen Fry and Hugh Laurie were, are and always shall be, the quintessential Jeeves and Wooster! As English as Pimms and Cucumber sandwiches, this glorious P.G. Wodehouse creation lifts the veil on the altogether more carefree life in 1920's high society, ironically observed through the wit of one of our great writers. And who better to bring it to the screen than two of our greatest comic talents.

Sadly, P.G. Wodehouse has suffered of late from the tight mouthed disapproval of Political Correctness. I wish that some people could just get over their left wing angst about "toffs" though, and see this for what it is - a wry and witty gallop through an entirely different era. This is comic farce, and it pokes fun at absolutely everyone.

Family Guy - Season 2 [1999]

CD-Charts > DVD > By Price
by: Seth MacFarlane
starring: Seth MacFarlane, Alex Borstein, Mila Kunis, Seth Green

Release Date January 27, 2003
I seriously doubt that I have to take the time to explain what Family Guy is, as the chances are that you - like so many others are a fan, or at the very least have seen some episodes.

In my opinion this second season of Family Guy considerably improves on the first, which is not something that's easy to do as season one was nothing less than fantastic. But Family Guy season two is packed to bursting point with hilarious and sometimes outrageous jokes. Seth MacFarlane never fails to deliver pure comical entertainment. It's good to be given a daring show that not afraid of offending people (on that note if your easily offended then you probably should avoid Family Guy.) I would have to say the best episode in the season is "Let's go to the hop." I mean teenagers ... Read More:

The Ultimate Bourne Collection Steel box set [2007]

CD-Charts > DVD > By Price
starring: Matt Damon, Albert Finney, Clive Owen, Franka Potente, Brian Cox
directed by: Doug Liman, Paul Greengrass

Release Date October 20, 2008
I bought this because it would save me space. It's the size of a normal DVD box, feels great and looks slick.

The DVD's in themselve are great as everyone knows. A fourth? It might be in the pipeline but wasn't written by the guy who wrote the original books.

The story as it goes in brief if you haven't already discovered. Bourne is an agent for the US government. Sent to do a job which goes array. He losses his memory and from the beginning of the first film, Bourne tries to recall who he is and tries to work out his memories.

The plot starts in the Med. and takes us on a rollercoaster of a ride. Visiting all the big hitters in Europe. France, Germany, England to the USA for a grand finale.

It's just great.

Father Ted - The Definitive Collection [1995]

CD-Charts > DVD > By Price
starring: Dermot Morgan, Pauline McLynn, Ardal O'Hanlon, Frank Kelly
directed by: Declan Lowney

Release Date October 29, 2007
Father Ted is one of these things you can watch over and over again, and laugh each time. Whether your waiting at the airport, or just at home with a cup of coffee, it never fails to make you smile.

Along with all 25 episodes, there are commentries from Graham Linehan (writer), Arthur Mathews (other writer) and Ardal O'Hanlon (Dougal). As well as that there is "Ted and Dougal Do Comic Relief", "Ted Fest 2007: A Very Ted Weekend and Two Tribes Go to War" "Interview with the Writers (Part 1 & 2)", "Dougal's Soundtrack" and "Comedy Connections" to name but a few.

As for the actual comedy, you can't get much better. The swearing isn't vulgar and the gags are never cheap. Professional actors aren't missed, as Dermot Morgan and Ardal O'Hanlon's humour makes up for it. ... Read More:

directed by: Les Mayfield

I watched this film as a child, then as an adult, and it always amazes me. Another truly heart warming Christmas film! Richard Attenborough portrays a wonderful Santa Claus, with his remarkable acting skills! It does not matter what age you are with this movie, old or young, it will warm your heart at Christmas time, with a few laughs along the way.
