High Octane 4 DVD

Advantages: references the master
Disadvantages: how many times are they gonna reference the master

...The never-ending story of trust and betrayal told once again through an old crime boss and his young employees. Although the front cover has Chow Yun-Fat and Danny Lee written on it, they are not in much of the film. Chow is in 2 or 3 scenes and Danny Lee is in 1. Besides from that it is a good film and does have a lot of high octane fight scenes. Code of Honour bares resemblance to Ran, by Akira Kurosawa, though unlike some other referencing films it does have its own original story. PS There are no special effects in this film, ignore ‘weak’... Read review

Advantages: Easy to store
Disadvantages: Not enough extras

...The film by J.J Abrams, creator of lost has made one of the most exciting films I have ever seen. The beggining shows a bit where a crazy man is holding a gun to Ethan Hunts' wife. Then we have a flash back of all the events that led to this. The key to the the film a nuclear weapon called the Monkey's Foot. After many action-packed scenes where we learn about the baddie. Ethan thinks his boss is helping the baddie, but we later learn it is the person he most trusts in the agency. We see later in the film what we saw at the start, which is very effective because we think the film is going to end with him saving his wifes live. Then you here the gun shot and think she is dead, but a minute later we see she is alive. Then the film ends in a great chase and fight. High octane film suggest you buy it or rent it out....

Advantages: Visual amazing
Disadvantages: Plot is a bit thin

...This film is visually stunning. If you are a martial arts fan you will absolutley love it. If not watch it anyway as it really is an excellent piece of filming visually. The one elemnt of the film that lets it down might be the lack of plot, but at the same time the film more than mnakes up for it. The opening scene is disturbing and gruesome but finished off in a style that has not been seen for some time. Wesley Snipes plays a vampire slayer whose mother was raped by a vampire, and is hence half vampire himself. Known as the Day Walker his powers equal and excede those of the vampires until ultra evil vampire Stepen Dorf, decides he wants more for vampires, for them to rule the planet. Thus the scene is set for outstanding, high speed, high octane action.!... Read review
