Engie Benjy - Time For Teamwork DVD

Advantages: Dinosaurs, fun, good sequel in series of kids films
Disadvantages: not as good as the first one

...A sequel blast from the past - some of you may remeber the classic childrens films ''the land before time'', a fantastic film which broke cinema records and proved even more popular when released for home entertainment. As previously mentioned it started off as one movie, but then many more, with bizarre titles emerged on to our screens. I LOVE the old school films, and although they've really pushhed the button to try and create a film for every possible type of adventure littlefoot and his friends could every encounter, I still find them very cute and a pleasure to view.

Comes in a standard single DVD black plastic case. Complete with clear plastic cover... Read review

We decided to update our home viewing collection and have recently been replacing all our favourites with the new DVD alternatives.

Advantages: cracking comedy film, just watch and enjoy
Disadvantages: not all the special features are that special

...Let me take you back in time to a time and place that strikes a chord with anyone who has a sense of cinematic history.

In 1974, during the making of the comedy film 'Blazing Saddles', actor Gene Wilder had the idea for a new comedy. Along with the writing... Read review
