Bruce Willis on top form
Review of Die Hard Trilogy (Collector's Edition) by
JeanReno
Advantages: Great films, nice extras, nice box.
Disadvantages: No Die Hard 4
After Die Hard 4's release last summer i felt compelled to buy the original films. The original trilogy still cuts the mustard even without lashings of CGI and such. The old tale of a renegade cop is nothing new but it was reborn in these films with not only great casting and the wonerful ham acting of Alan Rickman (Die Hard), but also great action and good solid film-making. As for the box set, not only does it come with the films but a strong set ... ...watch over and over. I think the only possible let down for me is that Die Hard 4.0 (which i would recommend buying with this set and taking the weekend off) isn't included, but this isn't the end of the world. All in all a safe buy for action fans. ...

Its a dirty job but someones got to do it
Review of Dirty Harry Collection (Box Set) by
harj123
Advantages: tense,exciting well acted cop thriller
Disadvantages: might be too violent for some viewers
Dirty harry[1971] is one of most successful cop films ever and also highly controvesial.When it was released it drew criticism for its violence.Directed briskly by Don siegel and set in San francisco,its a tense thriller which pitches cop "Dirty " Harry callahan against killer "Scorpio".Harry is called "Dirty" because he takes on the tough cases that all other cops stay clear of.He is a widower,has few real friends and works best alone.He is dedicated ... ...direction.The style was maintained for dirty harry but with a rougher harder edge.The film has a cat and mouse chase feel with harry racing against time to capture scorpio.Eastwood shows the edge and relentless pace that harry works at really well.The one liners that eastwood delivers have become part of movie legend.The "do you feel lucky well do ya punk" is a classic.He also shows harry more vulnerabe side how he does what he does to escape the ...

All three in one Die Hard
Review of Die Hard / Die Hard 2 / Die Hard With A Vengeance DVD by
handel345
Advantages: All in one, great action films

...My personal favourite is die hard with a vengeance, but die hard 1 and 2 are both great as well. Probably the three greatest bruce willis films out there, and bundled together in a boxset for you.
Die Hard 8/10
Die Hard 2 7/10
Die Hard with a vengeance 9/10
Recommended for those that enjoy fast paced action films, bruce willis, thrillers.

The premise for Battle Royale is a very interesting one, and quite futuristic. Set at the beginning of the 21st century, the youth of Japan are out of control. They are running riot, rejecting discipline and have no respect for authority. The young unemployed are turning to crime and holding the country to virtual ransom. The ...

American Me (Film Only)
Review of American Me (Wide Screen) by
Raechel
Advantages: Historic and holds your attention.
Disadvantages: It's a sad story.
In American Me, Edwards James Olmos, making his debut as a feature film director, reveals a tragic world of violence... a culture destroying itself from within, where prison is the school that turns children into callous murderers. American Me explores three genereations of Hispanic-American family, beginning with the Pachuco riots in Los Angeles in 1943 and ending in the mid-1970s.
The film chronicles the rise of a ruthless crimelord named Santana, ... ...young man along with two comrades yet survives by forming a "gang of gangs". This alliance comes to be known as the EME - the Mexican Mafia - the first and most powerful of prison gangs in the Californian penal system that, in time, draws strength from 'the system' and begins to feed on the streets of Sanatana's own neighbourhood.
Feature Soundtrack: English, Russian, Italian, Spanish
Subtitle Tracks: English, Italian, Spanish, Danish, Finnish, ...
