DVD Description
A collection of the westerns THE MISSING, NED KELLY, and BROKEN TRAIL. THE MISSING centres on life in 19th Century New Mexico. Samuel Jones walked out on his family many years before when his daughter was just a child. He decides to return home and make up with his now grown-up daughter Maggie. What he finds on his return is that Maggie's eldest daughter Lily has been kidnapped by a group of outlaws. Maggie must now enlist the help of her estranged father in a rescue attempt. Lily's existence is now threatened by a life of enslaved prostitution in Mexico City. NED KELLY is a film about Australias' most notorious outlaw, Ned Kelly. It is 1871 and Ned, along with his brother Dan and two other men, Steve Hart and Joe Byrne, form a gang, the Kelly Gang, and set out to rob banks using primitive armour as protection. Kelly soons finds himself being seen as a Robin Hood figure by the local population and a price on his head and the police chasing him. However, whilst hiding out in a pub, the gang are betrayed by a local teacher and the scene is set for a dramatic showdown with dozens of armed police who are taking no chances. In BROKEN TRAIL, an uncle-and-nephew team of cowboys are charged with running a herd of horses through the Wild West. The pair encounter a group of Chinese girls who are being sold into prostitution, and after saving them from that bitter fate, they find themselves charged with their care.
Advantages: Well acted, Great Book Adaptation Storylines, Fun for All Ages Disadvantages: Each Movie is About Three Hours Long
...be ignored by the overall storyline.
I was slightly disapointed by this third story since it really didn't go by the books my L.M Montgomery at all. The first two movies are at least based on her books , but this movie was almost entirely made up. I was hoping the third movie would follow the other books about Anne as she is grown up with Children.
Still, the movie was well made and entertaining. It was good to see the actors again, and the costumes anad attention to detail from the World War I era are fantastic. It's not as good as the first two movies, but well worth a watch.
******Conclusion*****
All these movies in the BoxSet; Anne of Green Gables, The Sequel , and The Continuing Story, are so much fun. Children around the age of 7 and up will enjoy the first one. While children more around the age of 10 and up would...

Advantages: loads of bonus features Disadvantages: none
...This is the king of all boxsets, its amazing. It has all of the matrix films plus loads of special features. Its not really for anyone who hasnt seen any matrix films yet but if your a fan its totally worth buying. Its great value for money as aswell as getting all the films you get 35 hours of special features. Overall its one of the best boxsets I have ever come across and would recomend it to anyone. Its for anyone 15 years and older and inside there are 10 discs including films and special features. In my opinion this is quite cheap as I got it for much more so I would advise anyone to get it here. I would give it 10/10....

Advantages: Very funny comedy you can watch over and over Disadvantages: Not great extras
...For me this was the best comedy series of the 1990s by far, streets ahead of everything else at the time. The laughs throughout almost every episode, from every season were absolutely guaranteed and each character grew in their own individual way into a hilarious addition to the programme, complementing each other perfectly. I can watch every single episode again and still be guaranteed a few good laughs, which is something you don't get with many comedies. My personal favorite character was Ross cos he was so goofy but you just had to laugh at him. The only downside I would say, is that the DVD extras wasn't really up to scratch, in fact it was quite poor, which may bother some people, but i didnt really buy it for the extras!...
