Review of Heroes - Series 1 Vol. 1 DVD by
docpov
Advantages: Compelling story and great to watch
Disadvantages: complicated . This is only half series one.
...live long enough maybe our heroes can stop it, unless they don't want to.
Maybe that has confused you more than ever but I am not going to give much of the actual story away. You will have to watch and see. I really don't think you will be disappointed.
The DVD's
This is the first half of the first series. It is in the form of a double box set containing a total of four discs (two in each box.) The discs contain episodes one to eleven plus ... ...Maybe buying the single episode Heroes Genesis would be even better, make your mind up from that before making the investment of £24.98 (Amazon) for this set. All sets are also also available at most DVD retailers.
Suitability.
The series has a 15 rating on the DVD. There are gory scenes that are going to be unsettling for younger viewers, or older ones of a timid disposition for that matter. To be honest it is a complicated story that younger ...

The fifth element
Review of The Fifth Element (Wide Screen) by
daxus100
Advantages: Colourful dramatic sci fi
Disadvantages: Chris tucker
...sci fi fans dream,it tells the story of a normal guy in the future whos a down on his luck taxi driver when a female human weapon literally falls into his lap,shes beautiful practicly naked and cant speak a word of english to him,but that doesnt stop him for helping her stop the ultimate evil aka Gary oldman who makes the most wonderful bad guy.
The story is fantastic as is the sound track but by far the best bit of the whole film is the part where ... ...action and colourful sci fi,its capable of being funny and sad and i would recomend it to people who have enjoyed films like Johhny meumonic and total recall,if you havnt seen this one make sure you give it a go because it really should be up there with the classics ...

This should be Lost in Space!
Review of Lost In Space DVD by
pmcds
Advantages: Plot twist, special effects, Gary Oldman
Disadvantages: Everything else
...up into space and got lost (funny that, the title kind of gives it away!). So, when they made the decision to remake the series into a film, giving it a futuristic overhaul, I was really excited. The film was released in 1998, and its running time is 130 minutes.
The Plot
In the year 2058, scientists have realised that in order for the population of Earth to survive, they must relocate to somewhere outside the planet, for it is dying. The Robinson ... ...yet they find themselves literally lost in space when the sinister Smith stows away. Dr John Robinson and family then find themselves searching for a way back home and fighting for their own survival, let alone that of the Earth. Armed with the latest state of the art gadgetry and a hot shot military man, Major Don West, the Robinsons see adventure after adventure as they try to find their way back.
The Cast and Performances, and then My Opinion!

The Fifth Element - Big Ba-da Boom!
Review of The Fifth Element (Special Edition) by
space_chick2004
Advantages: It has everything, action, drama, comedy, adventure and a love story.
Disadvantages: Chris Tucker's character can be pretty annoying.
The Fifth Element, directed by Luc Besson has to be one of the few movies that I can watch time and again. It is such a multi-layered movie, which works well on many levels. It is part sci-fi, part thriller, part action, part comedy but ultimately it is a love story. It is such an unusual movie, it is almost impossible to compare to any other.
The story is set in the not too distant future in an incredibly crowded New York. The visuals of the city ... ...all the inhabitants have taken to living and working high above the city streets which are uninhabitable due to permanent, thick smog.
Korben Dallas (Willis) is driving his taxi when suddenly a semi-naked woman (Milla Jovovich) who has leapt from a ledge to evade police, comes crashing into his taxi from above.
The woman starts pleading with him in a totally incomprehensible language for him to help her escape. At this point, their mutual understanding ...
