Advantages: It's a film! Disadvantages: Bad acting, no plot, no special features
A cheap film, but entertaining nonetheless. While it's not quite Conan the Barbarian there is stull enough action and fight scenes to keep you interested. There is plenty of bad acting which tends to make the film look cheesy and basically quite funny. The dvd doesn't have what you would call "real" special features but you are able to select which scene you want to watch or continue from. You are also able to watch trailers for other potentially poor films. It's about an hour and a half in length, and to be honest there is not much of a plot. So it's more like an hour and a half of just bad acting! Still, having said all that this dvd would still entertain you and if you can pick it up like me for £2 then it's a bargain. ...

Advantages: The Best Account of the FInal Available on DVD Disadvantages: The sound and picture aren't great
From a Die hard Sunderland fan undoubtedly the best day in Sunderland Association Football Club History, when they took on Leeds in the 1973 Fa Cup Final. After defeating Luton Town 2 - 0 in the quarter final and Arsenal 2 - 1 in the Semis, Sunderland's Cup Final Slot was secured. Leeds on the other hand defeated Derby County 1 - 0 in the Quarter Finals and beat Wolverhampton Wanderers 2 - 1 in the semis. On the 5th May 1973 the teams took the pitch in a hard fought encounter. Then in the 31st Minute up popped the late, great Ian Portefield to bag, what would turn out to be the winning goal in the Fa Cup Final, to bag it for the Black Cats. This DVD contains an account of this close caught epic thriller that was the 1973 FA Cup FInal. ...
Advantages: Beautiful, poetic film making Disadvantages: none
The Barbarian Invasions is the thrid film from French-Canadian director
Denys Arcand. It is in essence a sequel to his first feature, "The Decline Of
The American Empire". "... American Empire" was a highly literate classic
from the late eighties concentrating on the lives and loves of a group of
Canadian scholars. The film was a critical hit that put Arcand on the map, but
that was nothing compared to the reaction to The Barbarian Invasions. The film
won 3 Cesar awards in Spain, The Audience award at the Toronto Film Festival, 2
Awards at Cannes (including best screenplay, one of the film's strongest
points) and it even won the Oscar for best Foreign Film in 2003. It is fair to
say The Barabarian Invasions deserved all of these awards and more. I personally
would rate it, without a shadow of a doubt, as one of the best films ...
