Advantages: Good Quality, Fun
Disadvantages: Alot of Disks

When i first noticed this title in the shops, my first reaction was "Thats too expensive" but then i realised that it was the price for ten films all included in the one set. The films in this set each have their own individual story and are only linked by the setting and characters. Each film in this set is interesting and have many good points and few bad points, on afew of the films the special effects are a bit lacking but this is due to the ... Read review

Advantages: Great special effects

Advantages: Good Cast, Nice Effects
Disadvantages: The Editing affected the pace in places

I have to disagree with the first review. YES some of the concepts have been used before in Movies, BUT these concepts were used first in both Warzone (a Wargame set in the Mutant Chronicles Universe) and in the RPG Mutant Chronicles. No lighting problems for me, as I bought my copy (the Bootlegs drifting around on the net are very 'dark'). The film drops you straight in the action, then takes the pace down quite nicely to give you the main Story ...
...My only issue is with the editing, it does tend to slow things down in places. All the cast did really well, its very difficult to convey the complexities of such a complex Universe as that of the Mutant Chronicles, but the Writer and the Director did well - the cast they chose were just right IMHO. ...

The story is voiced by David Tennant and Freema Agyeman in their roles of The Doctor and Martha Jones and is perfect companion to the TV series when you're a Doctor Who addict and have exhausted both Torchwood and The Sarah Jane Adventures. The Infinite Quest is the journey of the Doctor and Martha and they ...
...Of course no episode of Doctor Who wouldn't be complete without a villain and in this we have Baltazar, who they meet at the start of the episode and put in prison. A few years later he's released as a reformed character, but we soon discover this isn't the case and is after The Infinite. He's the usual over the top camp despot hell bent on taking over da yooniverse innit. Cue the Doctor and Martha to get there first. This gives them time to get ... Read review
