DVD Description
With the help of his family and friends, 12-year-old Buddy turns his beloved calf Hokey Pokey into a prize winning champion. After winning the GRAND CHAMPION title, Hokey is auctioned off for a hefty sum that will pay for family necessities. But when Buddy realizes that his former pet is going to be used as hamburger meat, he sets out to rescue Hokey, embarking on an adventure filled with obstacles along the way. Cameos by household names like Julia Roberts and Bruce Willis light up the screen, with guest performances by country music stars George Strait and Charlie Robison & Natalie Maines of the Dixie Chicks giving the film a charming Texas flavour. Lighthearted humour and an uplifting message make GRAND CHAMPION a heartwarming tale perfect for the whole family.

...As i am a liverpool fan i thought this dvd was fantastic to watch and to purchase, it has full value for money in my opinion, you get to relive the whole season in the champions league and how we won the champions league for 5 times, from all the amazing goals, from hyypia to baros, to all the interviews, which include risse, gerrard, carragher, beneitez and many more members from the club, i also thought the graphics and theme tune to the dvd was excellent, it last a fair while aswell, from a team finishing 5tth in the premiership winning the champions league, it just shows what a fantastic rafa did in the 2005 season to win liverpool the champions legaue, and you can relive this all over again when you purchase this dvd....

Advantages: Great event, good extras & the usual high WWE production qualities. Disadvantages: It's quite hard to find this event now as it has been deleted.
...time.
Undertaker keeps his winning Wrestlemania streak alive with a victory over HHH in a bloody brawl. Also features the legendary Motorhead performing live as HHH makes his water spouting way to the ring.
The main event is a WWF Championship match against World Champion The Rock & Stone Cold Steve Austin. Probably the greatest WM main event ever capped off with a stunning twist at the end.
Extras on the DVD include and extra match from Sunday Night Heat - Steve Blackman & Grand Master Sexay v X-Pac & Justin Credible & also has highlights of the Wrestlemania aftermath on the next nights RAW.
Overall an excellent DVD which is well worth tracking down....

Advantages: outrageously funny Disadvantages: Thin story line
...Kingpin is to state the obvious a very funny film from the creators of Dumb and Dumber and There's something about Mary, This outrageously funny comedy about a former bowling champion played by Woody Harrelson who becomes caught up in a sleazy world of hustling, will have you splitting your sides with laughter. Also starring Bill Murray as a bowling conman out to take his newly discovered protege (Randy Quaid) to the top of the profession. Embarking on a bowling tour and with their sites set on the grand prize,a bowling tournament in Nevada, the film becomes a barrell of laughs from start to finish. On route they manage to pick up a gorgeous female, Claudia, played by Vanessa Angel (she's enough to make you want to watch the filmalone).
This has to be one of Bill Murray's funniere films and as you'd expect from the writers of Dumb...
