Advantages: all of the episodes available on dvd for the first time
Disadvantages: seems a lot of discs

Finally!!!, fans of this series may know what im talking about, we have been waiting so long for a full and complete boxset to become available. We have had videos and DVD's be launched and deleted and overall if you managed to own all of them on DVD before now you were a lucky chappy indeed. The basic proxy is a group of 20 somethings living in a house in London basically go through and doing what 20 somethings do. It involves careers (mostly in ...
...downside i can see to this boxset is that there are 8 discs and 3 of this have less than 3 45minute episodes on them?? bizrre but does mean you a very pretty 8 disc set. Overall fans will love it, new comers will either be pleasantly surprised and fans for life or baffled and confused at how anyone sits and watches so much of something where nothing seems to happen, in my opinion absolute genius and well worth watching ...

Advantages: Stunning piece of art.
Disadvantages: About 15 minutes too long

...and forgives them both. Close My Eyes, for me is one of the most memorable pieces of British Cinema. The only flaw is that it goes on for a quarter of an hour longer than it should. This could alienate a viewer. SPECIAL FEATURES The only special feature is a series of interviews with the cast. There are no Subtitles or other languages. ... Read review

Advantages: brillant acting and based on a true story
Disadvantages: no special features on the dvd

I first came across Gia in a bargain basket in my local video/dvd rental store and I saw that it starred Angelina Jolie and it was only £3.99 so I thought, why not give it a go. Gia is a film about the life of America's first supermodel Gia Marie Curangi, she became one of the first women in America to contract and die of H.I.V in 1986, she was only 26. It was unclear where she actually contracted the virus from but she was a serious drug abuser ...
...masculine with the air of Gia against the world. As the film progresses you will realise that this is to hide her vulnerability. The film is narrated by her mother (played by Mercedes Ruehl) throughout. The film progresses through the people that Gia meets and how she struggles to find someone to love and how she becomes involved in drugs to help her to cope with the long hours of modelling. Gia meets a woman in the film called Linda with whom she ... Read review

Advantages: Original and Exciting
Disadvantages: Violent

Scum is a hard hitting and realistic piece of film work which, as I'm lead to believe by my Dad, was very controversial when it first came out. It was first released in 1979 (9 years before I was even born!) and is one of my favourites. When I first watched it, it shocked me but also made me laugh. Something which not too many films do but scum excels at. The film is about Carlin (Ray Winston), an out of control thug, who in his previous prisons ...
...say buy it if you like violent films, if you have seen Scum before but do not own it, then buy this 2 box set as the extra features are really worth watching unlike most other collectors editions! Thanks for reading and I hope you buy this DVD! Ross. ... Read review
