A rip-roaring action thriller
Review of The Fugitive (Special Edition) (Wide Screen) by
bigmike33
Advantages: The action never lets up
Disadvantages: None
The Fugitive is probably one of the finest action thrillers ever made, and definately Harrison Ford's best movie. Based on the television series of the same name, the best thing about The Fugitive is that it never lets up the pace, moving along at a thunderous and often breathtaking level. With its quick pacing, rock solid storyline and superb acting this is a great cat and mouse film, with Harrison Ford playing the slipperly fugitive and Tommy Lee ... ...a particularly enjoyable performance as the annoyed and stressed out police officer.
Harrison Ford plays world renowned vascular surgeon Richard Kimble, who is charged with murder after his wife is found dead at home, despite his pleas that a one-armed burglar had in fact committed the crime. While he is being transported on a prison bus an accident occurs, leading to the bus overturning and Kimble escaping into the nearby woods. It is up to US ...

Fugitive
Review of The Fugitive DVD by
shanediablo
Advantages: Harrison Ford at his best.
Disadvantages: Not original.
...from a television series from the 1960\'s which instantly makes it more difficult to stand out because you are well aware that it lacks originality of its own.
Problems aside.. Harrison Ford comes up with a near perfect performance as Dr Kimble, a surgeon wrongly accused of his wifes murder and becoming a rather unlikely fugitive of the law, hotly chased by US Marshal, Samuel Gerard played by Tommy Lee Jones.
This thriller is played out at an exhilirating ...

What a film!!!!!!!!
Review of Sin City DVD by
nathan_jones69247
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 ...

The Legendary Trilogy from the Legendary Spiderman
Review of Spider-Man Trilogy (Box Set) by
shin4
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 ...

Bloody Amateurs!
Review of Sudden Fury DVD by
Yobbey
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 ...
