Advantages: Comfortably made Disadvantages: Confusing plot
Clear and PresentDanger is the 1994 film from director Phillip Noyce who teams up with HarrisonFord as Jack Ryan once again to produce the sequel to Patriot Games. It is adapted from the Tom Clancy novel of the same name, features a bit more intrigue and corruption than Patriot Games and reverts Jack Ryan back to a more solid CIA role, and was acclaimed as a better film than Patriot Games.
Ford stars as Jack Ryan, appointed CIA deputy director following the deteriorating health of his mentor, Admiral Greer (James Earl Jones). With political situations tense on Colombia and strains between it and the States, Ryan assures there will be no black ops action in the South American country, only for National Security Advisor Cutter (Harris Yulin) to secretly order otherwise. Ryan ends up going to Colombia with John Clark (Willem Dafoe) to ...
Advantages: An aesthetically pleasing collection Disadvantages: Some rather poor inclusions
A selection of classic Hammer films from the very good to...not so good. An aesthetically pleasing set for fans of the studio, or those wanting at least half of the titles. Features star favourites Peter Cushing, Raquel Welch, Ursula Andress and Christopher Lee (about whom there is an interesting documentary with 'Scars of Dracula').
The extra features vary greatly, the biggest ommission, in my opinion, is the total absence of subtitles for the hearing impaired.
For those who are interested all films are anamorphic, some for the first time, and completely uncut.
My personal favourite was the inclusion of the 1965 film 'The Nanny' which stars a very chilling Bette Davis in a well scripted, and often overlooked role.
Probably a tad overpriced for most, but new DVD versions of individual films are also available, so take ...
Advantages: Very Funny Disadvantages: Not very PC at times.
