Westerns ever made. It tells the haunting tale of the friendship that develops between Tom Jeffords (James Stewart) and the Apache chief Cochise (Jeff Chandler) as Jeffords struggles to make peace between settlers and Apaches. As Jeffords' relationship with the Apaches, and in particular with a beautiful young Apache girl (Debra Paget) deepens, his situation, and that of the Apaches, becomes increasingly unstable.Groundbreaking in its humanist portrayal of the Apaches and controversial at the time for its measured portrayal of relationships between whites and Native Americans, Broken Arrow is a poetic and brutal film which dares to pit peace and love against the violent and malevolent ways of the West.With fantastic central performances, masterful direction from Delmer Daves and a story which is as fresh today as it was in 1950, Broken Arrow is a film which revolutionised the Western, and is a shining example not only of the genre but also of Hollywood cinema at its most powerful.

Plot: Broken arrow is a military term for a nuclear warhead that has been stolen -- and villainous Air Force pilot Vic Deakins has done just that. In fact, he's pilfered TWO bombs, in an effort to extract a huge amount of cash from the government in exchange for their safe return. However, there's a fly in the ambitious thief's ointment: Riley Hale, Vic's former co-pilot, whom Vic thought he had killed when he robbed the bombs.
Broken arrow is a military term for a nuclear warhead that has been stolen -- and villainous Air Force pilot Vic Deakins (John Travolta) has done just that. In fact, he's pilfered TWO bombs, in an effort to extract a huge amount of cash from the government in exchange for their safe return. However, there's a fly in the ambitious thief's ointment: Riley Hale (Christian Slater), Vic's former co-pilot, whom Vic thought he had killed when he robbed the bombs. Helping Riley is gutsy female Park Ranger Terry Carmichael (Samantha Mathis). Together the duo uses all the artillery, ammo, vehicles, and gumption they can muster, as they risk life and limb to thwart Vic and his vile gang. Hong Kong action specialist John Woo propels the film through trains, Humvees, exploding helicopters and more.

Special Features: Broken Arrow trailer, Predator trailer, Eragon trailer
Advantages: Good film with excellent special effects Disadvantages: none
...good and evil, but with cutting edge special effects and action scenes galore this is a great film to watch.
The blu-ray version i watched was a 2 disc set with the second disc full of extras. There was a section on the history of transformers, and interviews with executive producers Steven Spielberg and Brian Goldner, writers Alex Kurtzman and Robert Orci, and director Michael Bay. There were also features on the animation used and the way they worked out where to do scenes. You also get a look at the military equipment seen and used in the film.
This additional information is something you do not want to skip over, because it gives you a much deeper understanding of how much planning and work went into the final production. If you are into cutting edge special effects and head banging action then beg, borrow, rent, or if that fails buy...

Advantages: Rhino, Blu-ray and DVD with Rhino toy, good family watch Disadvantages: Similar to other animated films
...***Introduction***
Bolt is the latest movie made by Disney and so I decided to recently purchase this movie and see what all the fuss was about. This version was only a couple of quid more than the normal DVD and I purchased mine from TheHut (which I have reviewed very recently) and this includes the Blu-ray disc with special features, the film on DVD as well which is worth over £10 and a Rhino soft toy! (the excellent and very funny hamster in the movie) So I obviously decided to buy the Blu-ray!
***Plot***
Bolt and his owner Penny are the stars of a massive TV show with Bolt being the main character. To make everything appear more realistic Bolt must not know that this is just a show and not real and so he believes everything around him is real. When Penny is captured by the evil green eyed man he escapes over night to try...

Advantages: unbelievable visuals, stunning high definition, best wildlife series by far Disadvantages: only one - last disc isn't HD
...Excellent value for money now you can pick this up for less than £25, I got mine from Play.com but you can find it on most online shops now, Amazon, eBay, etc.
Stunning visuals and filmography coupled with David Attenborough's classic and informative narration, all add up to this unbelievably well made and engaging series, possibly the greatest wildlife/nature series ever made.
Make sure you have a HDTV to watch this on for the best experience, as it really does need to be seen to be believed.
Unfortunately, disc 5 is only a standard definition DVD, which is the only thing stopping this fantastic series getting 5 stars from me. However, don't let this put you off, as disc 5 is only the making of, and similar featurettes, meaning all nature footage is in HD on BluRay disc.
As a side note, you will obviously need a BluRay player (PS3...
