Sonic X - Vol. 1 (Animated)

Advantages: Funny and full of action
Disadvantages: A few violent scenes

...I loved sonic underground when I was younger, so when I saw it priced at just £0.97, I had to get it. The disc includes two episodes - "Last Resort" and "Come out Wherever You Are". As I am keen to start writing a few reviews I've decided to review both episodes. Please note there are no special features on this disc. LAST RESORT Written by Michael Edens While escaping from some of Doctor Robotnic's warriors Sonic, Manic and Sonia stumble across an oasis which looks just like Mobios before Robotnic placed himself in charge. This oasis is called Lake Valley Resort. Sonic is amazed by the sheer beauty he is surrounded by during his stay. The person in charge is a tiger named Stripes. He and Sonia fall in love at first sight but Sonia goes on to find that Stripes has made a deal with Robotnic. Robotnic leaves the valley alone if Stripes... Read review

...Sonic a success in the early 90’s. This is a very good first attempt at bringing Sonic onto the big screen. I hope future efforts follow down the same path but make the improvements needed to avoid abrasive comments from the critics – 9/10 Summary: Packaging – 9 Menu – 8 Video – 7 Audio - 4 Extra’s – 6 Content – 9 Overall - 7 Target Audience: Recommended to any fans of Sonic or Japanese Anime True Fans: I would recommend importing an American release of this film which includes both 5.1 audio, Japanese Dialogue and a few more extra’s such as the original trailers and the original introduction. The American version would get 9 out of 10 for overall quality. Email me if you want information on where to buy an Import or the U.K release.... Read review

...A truly fantastic film from the master of action films Quentin Tarantino. Kill Bill takes you on a bloodthirsty whirlwind trip that only leaves you wanting more. Kill Bill Vol.1 portrays an imersive world that draws you in without detracting from the real point of the film, the central plot flowing smoothly through the picture and the understated acting making the overall feel of the film as sharp as the swords. This picture will deliver everything the trailer promised us and will leave you hungering for Vol.2. A must see for any Tarantino fan and a definate recomendation to any fan of action films, especilally those fond of Japanese style martial arts pictures. In addition to all of this the animated segment of the film allowed Kill Bill to show a particularly disturbing scene in a way that, if not tasteful, must certainly be credited... Read review
