V the mini series is a story about a group of aliens of come to earth declaring peace,the are slowly intergrated into society,but a group of people known as the resistance think the aliens arnt being so honest about there motives for being there.
The series is getting on in years now but was so good on many levels,it similaritys between the aliens and the nazis as the resistance fight against them and you begin to learn the reasons behind the vist to earth,Mike singer stars as the lead investigator and alien hater and keepps you on your toes the whole way,the story twists pulling a few aliens over to the good side and a inter species relationship keeps us all guessing.
It proved to be such a popular series they made a second one with alot of the original cast in called v the final battle,these sets are very enjoyable if you like scifi and watching them back to back makes it even more enjoyable ,buy these little gems and you will never look at your pet mice the same way again!

I see you've posted this as a DVD review, but you've not mentioned the DVD features. Are there any extras? If so, what are they and are they any good? If you add to this, or if you change it to be posted as a "Film Only" review, which can be done by accessing "edit review" above the review and changing the drop down menu under the "Which format are you reviewing?" question at the bottom, please let me know and I'll re-rate.
