enjoyed in unrivalled high definition thanks to Blu-ray Disc technology. This is the first time the TT has been available on Blu-ray offering fans an exceptional viewing experience. TT 2009 promised to be one of the most hotly-contested in years with Honda going all out to take victory as it marked the 50th anniversary of its involvement in motor racing and the TAS Suzuki team determined to spoil the party.

The TT 2009 DVD includes action from every single race around the awesome 37'‚¾ mile Mountain Circuit where the machines reach speeds of up to 200mph as they roar just inches from walls hedges and houses. This is a chance to see the superbike supersport and superstock machinery being put to the ultimate test around the iconic Isle of Man TT course. There's also footage from the Lightweight and Ultra Lightweight TT races at the 4.25-mile Billown circuit. Commentary comes courtesy of Steve Parrish and James Whitham.

Advantages: Brilliant plot, excellent picture quality, solid audio, good special features. Disadvantages: Can become repetitive.
understood and appreciated, and therefore I'm glad I decided to add this to my Blu-ray collection; and will undoubtedly view it numerous times in the future.
The picture:
The vast majority of Sony's Blu-rays look astonishing and are reference quality, with Vantage Point being no different. The Widescreen 2:40:1 presentation shows pristine picture quality consistently throughout the film. No grain whatsoever was present on my screen, and picture detail was also noticeably high. Everything from the sparkling sun on a warm summers day in Spain to the dark black of the assassin's sniper rifle looked was displayed brilliantly. I failed to view Vantage Point on a normal DVD, but I am sure that the Blu-ray picture would look far superior to the older format and would be worth upgrading for if you are a fan of the movie.
Audio:
The 5.1 True ...
Advantages: Good film with excellent special effects Disadvantages: none
good and evil, but with cutting edge special effects and action scenes galore this is a great film to watch.
The blu-ray version i watched was a 2 disc set with the second disc full of extras. There was a section on the history of transformers, and interviews with executive producers Steven Spielberg and Brian Goldner, writers Alex Kurtzman and Robert Orci, and director Michael Bay. There were also features on the animation used and the way they worked out where to do scenes. You also get a look at the military equipment seen and used in the film.
This additional information is something you do not want to skip over, because it gives you a much deeper understanding of how much planning and work went into the final production. If you are into cutting edge special effects and head banging action then beg, borrow, rent, or if that fails buy ...
Advantages: Rhino, Blu-ray and DVD with Rhino toy, good family watch Disadvantages: Similar to other animated films
***Introduction***
Bolt is the latest movie made by Disney and so I decided to recently purchase this movie and see what all the fuss was about. This version was only a couple of quid more than the normal DVD and I purchased mine from TheHut (which I have reviewed very recently) and this includes the Blu-ray disc with special features, the film on DVD as well which is worth over £10 and a Rhino soft toy! (the excellent and very funny hamster in the movie) So I obviously decided to buy the Blu-ray!
***Plot***
Bolt and his owner Penny are the stars of a massive TV show with Bolt being the main character. To make everything appear more realistic Bolt must not know that this is just a show and not real and so he believes everything around him is real. When Penny is captured by the evil green eyed man he escapes over night to try ...
