Best Of The West DVD

Advantages: Very creepy / atmospheric
Disadvantages: Difficult to get hold of

...almost entirely of one song - Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata - as this is the ringtone of the mobile phone that the film is based around. Once you have seen the film, this once beautiful song takes on a sinister undertone that will bring back memories of this film whenever you hear it. THE DVD - This is the downside of the film - it is not readilly available in the West yet. The best place to obtain an imported is a website called "yesasia.com" - they offer Free Global Shipping, and their prices are very competitive, but check the format as they may be VCDs. Alternatively, these DVDs are available on eBay, but you need to be careful that they are not cheap copies ! Unfortunately this means that there is very little in the way of Special Features - none in fact ! OVERALL OPINION - In my view, this movie was as good as, if not better than... Read review

Advantages: Another great loco programme
Disadvantages: None

...to the commentary: "this is the very limit for sustainable boiler output." There are excellent footplate interviews whilst the locomotive is powering through the West of England countryside. This is another "must have" and in best Little Britain tradition I am sure many railway fans will point at this DVD and say: "I want that one!"... Read review

Advantages: Digitally Remastered with Widescreen version enhanced for 16:9
Disadvantages: Not for those with short attention spans

...a move, but the sexual chemistry seems to be there? (I'd have crashed and burned long before him!). It's an intirguing tale from the wild west and one of the best films of it's genre, from a true master of the genre. ~~~~~ Extras ~~~~~ The DVD itself is a double box set, which provides documentaries and interviews with the stars on the 2nd disc, along with location shots - then and now, a production stills gallery, cast profiles and the original trailer ... all of which are a treat for the avid collector. Originally made in 1968, both the picture and sound quality, as you would expect from a digitally remastered film, belie the films years. ~~~~~ Cost ~~~~~ The film is widely availble for purchase in high street stores and on many internet sites, such as Amazon, ebay, and the likes. Expect to pay no more than £19.99 new. Running... Read review

Advantages: Good acting, good effects
Disadvantages: Plot is bad, effects and acting wasted

...Wild Wild West was a film that I was particularly looking forward to seeing. For one thing, it had actors in it that I had liked in previous films (mainly Will Smith) and so I thought that it would prove to be a good movie. However, I was drastically wrong. This movie, although contains one or two scenes which proved to be amusing, is in one word, dreadful. The plot is weak, and although the acting and effects are good, they were wasted because it really doesn't do anything for the film at all. Although the film has a good setting, and has potential, this potential never really gets used, and at the end of the film, you can't help but feel a bit depressed. Not the best movie in the world, but worth a try if you are really stuck for movies to watch.... Read review

Advantages: Incredible Writing, Compelling Viewing, Believable Characters, Lavish Sets
Disadvantages: Not enough of it

...) and the kind of complex tracking shots which made your head spin on NYPD Blue have been perfected, making the West Wing a joy to watch. This is one of those rare shows which makes you ache when you watch it, and I know that in the future, I will judge all shows against it's impossibly high standard. Even the weaker episodes are head and shoulders above anything else on tv at the moment, and the best episodes, in particular the Pilot, and Two Cathedrals (which was voted a "top tv moment" by British audiences in 2003) can only be described as some of the finest television that has ever been produced. Buy the first season DVD as a Christmas present for everyone you know. If your rich buy them all, if you're even richer buy me a way of watching the 7th season that's now showing in the States....
