X-Men 2 (DVD And Fantastic Four Jonny Storm Watch

Advantages: Better action than some with story line
Disadvantages: slow in parts

If you love the first X-MEN then X-MEN2 is a must have, with less story building than the first this film has a lot more action - packed fun for all to love. There are a few slow parts in the film but overall its a must. the charachters realy start to evolve and if you were a fan of the cartoon then the end makes a lot more to you than if you just watch the film. Although you are left felling that they could have done more. E.g. Magneto (Lan Mckellen) ...
...four is again much like X-men 1 you have to wait for the best bits as the story building takes its time however its much more for the younger audience with its light humor and slightly cheesy punchlines however it is quit a good film for kids as it does not require you to concerntrate to long and if you miss bits of the film you can catch up with the plot later. A great xmas gift ...

Complete Lost In Space

Advantages: Great piece of classic TV history
Disadvantages: Perhaps a little more dated than some?

...desk, all of the entire Lost In Space the complete series on DVD. The bad news is that, as they are only journalist's review copies, I have to send them all back. Within one week… Still, the last time I saw the first episode was when I was knee high to a grasshoppers so it was interesting to see how the series first began, all those years ago. The first episodes were in black and white which lasted for some time until Irwin Allen the producer was ...
...known galaxy to become: "hopelessly lost in space". Several episodes in there was clearly a change in direction. Apparently this was initiated by Jonathon Harris, the actor who played Dr Smith. Dr Smith was changed, slowly, from a totally evil murderous traitor into a craven, bungling coward. Many people believe that this idea saved the show. Jonathon Harris spent night after night burning the midnight oil thinking up the dozens of alliterative ...

Roswell - the complete season

Advantages: All 3 seasons in one set
Disadvantages: You'll have to save up

...excellent value for money. Roswell follows the lives of 6 teenagers living in Roswell, New Mexico, home of the infamous 1950s alien spaceship crash. 3 of the teenagers are normal, human kids - and 3 are from a little further away and have special powers. The 3 aliens have been living under the radar to avoid becoming the subject of government experimentation, but Max risks blowing their cover to save the life of his childhood sweetheart Liz. As ...
...at risk. Keep watching as a fourth (and then more) aliens are uncovered and as the teenagers struggle not to let their feeling for each other become any more than platonic. A second alien race, a pregnancy and a special group of the FBI all threaten to uncover and destroy the aliens and their friends, and not all of them will survive. ...

SPACE 1999

Advantages: Fun Sci-Fi
Disadvantages: Quite dated

SPACE 1999 = Here we are again with another memorable sci-fi series from Gerry and Sylvia Anderson whose other 'Hits' included Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons, Fireball XL5, Thunderbirds and UFO. Space 1999 was set on the Moon where a Moon base has been built and nuclear waste from the Earth was stored, but things are not well and soon the nuclear waste explodes blowing the moon out of earths orbit and sets it on a course out of the ...
...The Troubled Spirit 20. Space Brain 21. The Infernal Machine 22. Mission Of The Darians 23. Dragon's Domain 24. The Testament Of Arkadia I remember as a kid having a toy ‘Eagle’ and really enjoying each episode. You can get it on DVD or catch the repeats on ITV4, daily. At the time the sets where clever and innovative and the scripts fresh and different. The special effects where not up to much but then it was 1975, oops sorry, 1999. The acting ...

Review of Space 1999 - Series 1 Space 1999 (DVD)

Bugged

Advantages: exciting, explosive, entertaining
Disadvantages: final season a bit of a let down, some dubious science

This series is a high-tech adventure show, with lots of gadgets, excitement and large explosions. At the start of the first series, the audience is introduced to three people Ros Henderson (Jaye Griffiths), Nick Beckett (Jesse Birdsall) and Ed (Craig McLachlan) (his last name isn't revealed.) They team up to form high-tech investigators. Ros is extremely good when it comes to computers and electronics. Ed is a daredevil, a pilot and addicted to risking ...
...has various connections and a lot of experience. The three of them combat a variety of criminals and illegal organisations in highly exciting, and always explosive, plots each episode. The villains are different each episode, with one or two exceptions, but I don't want to spoil the surprise for those who don't know the show that well. This means that the plots are hugely varied apart from the minor detail of the major explosions that are bound to ...
