Robbie Williams - And through it all

Advantages: A must for any die hard Robbie fan
Disadvantages: none

...I saw Robbie in September 2006 and thought he was excellent. I remember seeing him when he was still in Take That. Robbie has definately got better as he has got older. Its a 2 disc set, which also features his TV appearances. Hope you enjoy, as i have. ...

Lover of Life, Singer Of Songs. Legend

Advantages: Solo Videos, rare last Freddie interview, a lot of extras
Disadvantages: Some of the extras are a bit long and boring

Freddie Mercury-Lover Of Life, Singer Of Songs DVD I had this DVD bought for me for my birthday in November 2006 when it had just come out. I also have the Freddie Mercury CD "Lover Of Life, Singer Of Songs, The Very Best Of Freddie Mercury Solo" being a big Queen and Freddie fan. I love the name of the CD and DVD as I think it sums Freddie up perfectly, as it says on the back of the DVD booklet, it was Brian May's inscription for the Freddie Mercury ...

Not good.

Advantages: If you know next to nothing about Guns n' Roses, might be worth a look.
Disadvantages: Bad layout, no real conclusion, repeated facts, uninteresting interviews.

I am an avid Guns n' Roses fan and bought this DVD a while back. However, it was a waste of my money as I didn't learn anything new from it. If you don't know much about the general history of the band and want to learn more, then it might be worth purchasing it but otherwise I wouldn't bother. Most of the people that are interviewed in the DVD seem to be complete randomers with no real connections to the band at all. You don't really get to see ...

Dont go there !

Advantages: If youa re writing an essay on people that used to know GD, purchase
Disadvantages: Generic, really scrapes the barrel

...so many unofficial DVDs for Green Day out there at the moment, but this was one of the first DVDs on them, released in 2002. I myself, am not a fan of unofficial DVDs as if think they seem to scrape the barrel with generic information. Unfortunately this appears to be the case with this DVD also, with information on the band which has been documented time and time again. There is old information and people that have appeared out of the woodwork ...
...fame. I purchased this a couple of years ago as a massive Green Day fan who thought she could enjoy anything with them on. Needless to say, I have recently sold it for £0.99 on ebay! I would not recommend buying this unless it is in a bargain bucket somewhere. ...

In Sickness and in Health

Advantages: Interesting and entertaining, Great interview with Tony Benn
Disadvantages: Some subjects are arguably exploited, Does not consider disadvantages of socialised healthcare

"Sicko" (2007) - FILM ONLY REVIEW Writer: Michael Moore Director: Michael Moore Running Time: 123 minutes Certificate: 12A (UK) / PG (Ireland) / PG13 (USA) It has become something of a cliché to describe Michael Moore as a controversial, polarising character. To some, he is the White Knight of the left whose regular-guy approach to discussing uncomfortable subjects should be applauded, while to others he is a man who has exploited vulnerable interview ...
...picture he wants to make his attention-grabbing documentaries a success. An entire industry has grown up attempting to discredit Moore's work and has given his reputation something of a battering over recent years, but while some of the criticism he has received has I think been justified, this has not prevented him producing his highly entertaining 2007 documentary "Sicko" about the American medical industry. In many ways, this has proved to be ...
