Advantages: Superbly shot, great casting
Disadvantages: none really!

I have to admit, i was absolutely gutted when this came out. I'd just spent a small fortune on the boxset. On the other hand, I was chuffed to bits, sharpe was back! It'd been a long time since Sean Bean had donned that uniform, and it shows - though it fits in perfectly with the storyline. The storyline is loosely based on the book "Sharpes Fortress" - the last of the Sharpe in India series. In Challenge, Sharpe returns to India as a retired ...
...gets himself involved with the Incompetent Simmerson (the most hated of sharpes enemies!) and ends up posing as a redcoat deserter, to rescue the ailing generals daughter and save the day - though things go terribly wrong when a captured sargeant gives Sharpe and Harper away - and as always with Sharpe, death, mass explosions and screaming charges ensue! Despite the fact that over a decade had passed between waterloo and challenge, Sean Bean and ... Read review

Advantages: great watch
Disadvantages: very dark

An absolutely great movie. This movie was awesome from the word go. It's got a very atmospheric feel and all the characters in the film are great. The film is made up of a few short stories kinda like pulp fiction. It's a very graphic and violent movie based on the underworld and its comic book picturisation creates a great atmosphere. Micky Rourke in my opinion give the best performance of his career, even though he was only in it for around 30 ... Read review

Advantages: All
Disadvantages: None

This is an excellent must have Boxset!!!! It is one of the most highly rated, highly popular and very famous comic superhero of many decades and of our time!!!! Now it is on DVD and as a trilogy!!! Spiderman, Spiderman 2 and Spiderman 3. The ultimate collection!!! The Boxset contains the following films: *Spiderman (2002) Duration Time: 121 mins Certificate: 12 (in the UK) *Spiderman 2 (2004) Duration Time: 127 mins Certificate: PG (in the ...
...Certificate: 12A (in the UK) The first film release is the most sensational out of the 3. This is because it is where Peter Parker (played by Tobey Maguire) is transformed by a red-blue coloured spider into a superhero. We also see the departure of his uncle, Ben (played by Cliff Robertson) which leads to the hero becoming more responsible. We are also introduced to Aunt May (played by Rosemary Harris), who goes through so much as an Aunt and as ... Read review

Advantages: Old school Gore aplenty, decent make-up effects, DVD extras
Disadvantages: Poor acting, picture quality, story, script, dialogue...

Lots of bloodiness ensues in this no-budget, independent London gangster flick. But don't go thinking this is a Guy Ritchie or Martin Scorsese type gangster movie - it's far from it! The story is fairly straightforward: Crime boss Randall (David Warbeck!), looks to increase his growing empire by hiring 'legendary' hitman, Walker, to take out his arch enemy, Harris and his crew. But what Randall didn't mention to hitman Walker was that he has no intention ...
...betrayal orders his death once his mission is accomplished... big mistake! It's all an amateur effort from a group people having a bit of fun it seems. You'll see better acting in primary School plays, seriously! But like I mentioned before, this is all over-the-top fun, with David Warbeck amusing in his brief campy performance (one of his last too). Surprisingly though, the movie does feature quite an impressive arsenal of weapons that would give ... Read review

Advantages: Different concept to the previous films
Disadvantages: Poor script, poor story, poor acting

If you loved Jurassic Park and the Lost World, you're probably excited about the third film. However, prepare to be a bit disappointed with the quality of this compared to the other two. The script and characters aren't appealing enough for you to care about whether they make it off the island or not; several sub-plots are extremely predictable and annoying. Most of the dinosaurs, inlcuding ones we're familiar with already such as T-Rexes and Velociraptors, ...
...tension of Grant being a reluctant returnee to the Jurassic Park carries the film a little, like Dr Malcolm in The Lost World. I'd only recommend buying this if it's really cheap and you want to complete the triology - or if you're in the mood for a silly B-movie. ... Read review
