Advantages: All Jack Ryan stories are together and in order
Disadvantages: Jack Ryan played by different actors

...Soviet nuclear sub heading for the US. The Government think he is going to attack but Jack Ryan (Alec Baldwin) thinks he wants to defect. Jack has a couple of hours to prove his theory before the US Government find the 'Red October' and blow it up. Sean Connery is brilliant as usual but I found The Hunt for Red October very slow to start with, although it got exciting towards the end. *Patriot Games* Patriot Games had me hooked from start to finish. ...
...then a race to stop the terrorist whose brother he killed from killing his family. Non-stop action and suspense. *Clear and Present Danger* Clear and Present Danger had me hooked from start to finish (although slightly complicated storyline). Jack Ryan (Harrison Ford) is appointed acting CIA Deputy Director of Intelligence aqnd heads off to Colombia to investigate the murder of one of the President's friends. This film is full of action and cover ... Read review

Advantages: The Last Crusade, Bonus Disc, Price
Disadvantages: The Temple of Doom

A truly great trilogy of films which everyone should own. The box-set brings together the 3 films and an extra DVD of bonus features, and can be found for very cheap online or in-stores. Of course the Last Crusade is the best of the 3 followed closely by the Raiders of the Lost Ark, but all 3 provide a great combination of action and comedy which i feel the Crystal Skull seemed to miss. While some may wait for the 4th film to be released in a new ... Read review

Advantages: Entertaining and lots of action
Disadvantages: Some may prefer the other Indiana films

...been to see the latest Indiana Jones film this morning and thought I would share my opinion on it. I have always been a fan of the Indiana Jones films and wondered whether this could live up to my expectations as after all it has been quite some time since the last instalment we had! It's no hidden fact that a lot of people wondered if Harrison Ford could pull it off and so with this in mind I wasn't sure if I was going to be disappointed or not! ...

Advantages: It shows you just how bad hollywood movies can get
Disadvantages: It shows you just how bad hollywood movies can get

Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle is yet another example of a movie that has had a lot of good advertising but can prove a disappointment for some once you've watched it. In fact, I can list it as one of the worst big budget action movies I have ever watched. Why? First of all the acting was not impressive, especially coming from an all star cast, which included actors such as Drew Barrymore, Lucy Liu, Cameron Diaz, Demi Moore, Bruce Willis, Bernie ...
...goes to waste. There is also the fact that the angels are not required to do much acting, mostly posing and looking pretty. Another thing that absolutely killed me when watching this was the lack of really good special effects as I had hoped it would at least have if nothing else. If the acting is not good in an action movie I would love for the stunts and effects to be great at least. The fight scenes and special effects weren't the least believable. ... Read review
