...If you love the weather you love this too. Presented by Donal MacIntyre With great informative facts about how hurricanes are made and how fast winds can reach in the wake of the moment.
With stunnng CGI to breathtaking filming techniques.
There are four programmes on the DVD which talk about the 'Wind', 'Water', 'Winter' and 'Summer'
Donel shows us the heat of the Sahara to a fury of a monsoon then through the coldest of temperature's to the artic and swimming under the ice. Then once again shows us that no man can withstand hurricane force winds up 150 mph, has he reconstucts this for us in a wind tunnel

Ben goes to talk to Andie, and here the fun starts.
Will Ben get Andie to fall in love with him in time for the party, or will Andie manage to get Ben to dump her before the 10 days are up?
Conclusion
=
I have wanted to see this movie for some time now, so I took the opportunity of a free trial with a DVD rental company to rent this film out. I was not disappointed. I thought this movie was extremely well written, with lots of humour. Kate Hudson and Matthew McConaughey, who is totally gorgeous in my opinion, have great chemistry on screen and create some hilarious moments...
