They Fly So High

Advantages: The Good Old Days
Disadvantages: It's not likely to happen again

...interviewing some very tired looking West Ham players with their celebratory pints of milk. All in all, a very satisfactory disc in terms of contents. The picture quality is far better than I was expecting, a little blurry and smeary thanks to 1980s outside broadcast technology, and sound comes in mono, so no swirling chanting around your surround set-up. Regrettably, there is no choice swearing to be overheard either. So, as a sports disc, it's ...
...of nostalgia. This is a West Ham team that I remember as a youngster, and some of the team were gods (and still are) to me as a 7 year old. The chance to watch my heroes at work, with every minute of action shown, so not just the fancy footwork, but the losing possession and sliced shots on goal too. The minutes flew by. The first half was Arsenal showing most possession, but little imagination or willingness to get forward. The Hammers were most ...

The best of aston villa 2005/2006 all summed up in 160 minutes

Advantages: Very detailed look at the 2005/2006 season
Disadvantages: There arent any

The aston villa season review 2005 / 2006 is a trip down memory lane at the highs and lows of that year! This particular year aston villa struggled under david o'leary but the positves were the inclusion of some very promising youngsters in the first team squad. It is a very good dvd which includes month by month results,squad profiles and match stats and who could forget the 3-1 win over close rivals birmingham city which is included as extended ...

Review of Aston Villa - Season Review 2005/2006 (DVD)

The subaru impreza story (dvd), a good enthusiasts dvd.

Advantages: Intresting history and good interviews
Disadvantages: Dated, too padded out.

The Subaru Impreza story give a indepth reveiw of the 'classic' shape Impreza Turbo. It includes the history of the rally team and the development of the rally and road car. it also shows the options to enthusiasts of how they can modify their own cars and reviews the advantages of joining clubs and features lots of drivers on track days. The DVD also features interviews with some of the most infulential people behind the development of the car. ...
...Knowlage about the marque. However some parts are just included to fill space and the sound track, in my opinion, is very dated and a little annoying. I'd recomend this DVD to any Hardcore Impreza fan, but it only covers the 'classic' shape and does show its age. ...

Car crash TV - Exploitative, manipulative and totally compelling

Advantages: If you were a fan of the Warrior, you need to own this
Disadvantages: Pretty biased for a documentary

...abuse and personality clashes. The WWE hired and fired him no less than three times, each time trying to recapture the magic of his first run, before they parted ways in 1996. He surfaced again two years later for a brief stint in rival organisation WCW before finally calling it a day and retiring. As is common practice for retired wrestlers, WWE has put together a documentary charting his career. Normally such things tend to be a bit of a love fest, ...
...lengths Vince McMahon and the WWE will go to to try to get one over on him. It's no secret that Warrior was a difficult guy to work with backstage, and I don't doubt that he let his fame and success go to his head, but even I have a hard time believing some of the stories being thrown around - this is very much Vince McMahon's version of the truth, in which he portrays himself as a patient, forgiving, understanding man who only has his wrestler's ...
