Great boxset!

Advantages: Convenient to keep them together. Great prices around.
Disadvantages: Individual boxes smaller than normal.

In my opinion this boxset (bought for £17 from HMV) was great value. It was much cheaper than buying all individually. I only had one of the movies on dvd and had the earlier ones on VHS so I needed an update. All five parts are great quality films! It's handy that all five come in separate boxes within the one cover because they won't get lost. Each individual box is smaller than the normal DVD box size and perhaps this is worth noting. I've watched ...
...for family viewing although it is worth bearing in mind that the films seem to get a bit more scary as they progress (number 5 is particularly scary). Parental guidance is reccommended if buying this movie for very young children. In my opinion the violence and fear-factor is mild-to-moderate but is no worse than a lot of movies nowadays. I do wonder what will happen when the sixth movie is released on dvd and whether a new boxset will be available ...

harry Potter and the Philosopher's stone,a fantastic film for all

Advantages: fantastic storyline and special effects
Disadvantages: slightly long

In my opinion Harry Potter and the philosopher's stone is an excellent film. The transition from book to film has been done with outstanding accuracy. The special effects throughout the film are spectacular without being ridiculous. The characters are easy to relate to and are not portrayed as being unrealistic and therefore becoming untrue role models for today's children. The moral thread running through the film makes this a great one for the ...

Harry Potter is back , and this time he is about to start his second year at Hogwarts school of Witchcraft and Wizardry. But there's just one thing ? Why is Dobby the house elf so concerned about Harry and why is he telling Harry he will be in serious danger if he goes back to Hogwarts ? Watch Harry Potter and The Chamber Of Secrets to find out! Harry Potter and The Chamber Of Secrets was released in the United Kingdom on 15th November 2002. The ...
...my favourite Harry Potter movie. It was also my favourite book out of the whole series. I enjoyed the first film (Philosopher Stone) so I was quite excited when this movie was released ; and this film is so much better than the first! I think the main difference between the first movie and this one , is how the three main characters , Harry , Ron and Hermione have all grown up! I prefer the actors 'grown up' as I find they're not so annoying and ...

What if the stories you told came to life?

Advantages: Magical story, fun family entertainment
Disadvantages: Typical Sandler silly in places

...good at doing is telling bedtime stories with the help of a goggly eyed hamster and the children. But when their imaginative stories begin to come true, Skeeter sees an opportunity to get everything he's ever dreamed of. ~ Cast ~ Skeeter Bronson - Adam Sandler Jill - Keri Russell Mickey - Russell Brand Patrick - Jonathan Morgan Heit Bobbi - Laura Ann Kesling Kendall - Guy Pearce Barry Nottingham - Richard Griffiths Violet Nottingham - Teresa Palmer ...
...are attempting to steer the bedtime stories in a direction which will be beneficial to them by trying to add more grown up things into the stories such as sexy women, lots of money and revenge on those who deserve it. These parts are more comical and more appropriate for the adults in the audience which does make this a great film for the whole family. There is still a lingering of Sandler's stupid humour which pops up occasionally throughout the ...

Forget the Kids, I loved this!

Advantages: great story, good acting, good funny bits
Disadvantages: Russell Brand is in it!

...of Skeeter they make up bedtime stories. After the first night Skeeter finds that the story they made up did in fact come true for him and he lived it out during the day. Skeeter tries to use this to his advantage and help him move up in the hotel industry. Will Skeeter be able to use the children’s stories to get his dream job or will things not work out as he planned? I have only given a very brief plot outline to this film as I think that giving ...
...little predictable towards the end so I don’t want to spoil it for anyone who has not seen it. Now this film is really for children but I really did want to see it as it looked very fun. I have to say that both me and hubby found it was very entertaining and at times very funny. I thought that Adam Sandler did a great job in the role of Skeeter as his character was daft and this for me is what he does best. I think he had a great chemistry with both ...
