Blondie - Live DVD

Advantages: Jack Nicholson at a push
Disadvantages: Very weak storyline, transparent, predictable

...You take one of the best actors in Hollywood at the moment (Jack Nicholson (About Schmidt, A few good Men), put him together with a younger, but firmly established actor (Adam Sandler (Little Nicky, Happy Gilmore), and what are you left with? One of the worst films I have seen in a long time. The storyline revolves around David Buzznik, a businessman who is constantly being pushed around by his boss. During a flight to a meeting he is wrongly accused of having an anger problem, and is forced to attend anger management sessions with the eccentric Nicholson. From there on, everything goes from bad to worse, culminating in Nicholson running off with his girlfriend, or so he thinks. The end of the film sees David getting the girl, realising that the whole thing was set up by Nicholson, and everyone lives happily ever after... Read review

Disadvantages: SPECIAL EFFECTS NOT TOO HOT

...Videodrome is a classic nightmare of a film. James Woods plays a buyer of TV programmes. He finds the ultimate programme VIDEODROME, only to find that this programme causes the viewer to hallucinate, big style. Some memorable scenes like the bulging TV and the gun melding into the hand. Watch out Deborah Harry (BLONDIE) is this movie. Great script and excellent acting. Stick with it and you will be rewarded - try not to have too many nightmares - you have been warned. A classic of it's genre. Highly recommended viewing.... Read review

The Business is a typical English film which contains majority of the cast from the likes of The Football Factory, Layer Cake and other famous British films, which is great because that why we love these types of films because of the characters that they protray and they fit in well. The soundtrack to the film, makes it even more watchable, as it set in the 80's, its nice to hear all the old favourites from the likes of Duran Duran, Frankie Goes to Hollywood and Blondie plus many more. If you like British films... Read review
