documentary about the classic progressive rock band Yes, together with an audio-only presentation of their 2003 set. The feature, narrated by Roger Daltrey, is a refreshingly straightforward affair, with a near three-hour running time allowing rather more depth than the usual rockumentary. Divided into 10 chapters the programme systematically covers the background, history and outlook of the group before an extended interview with each of the five members of the classic line-up: Jon Anderson (vocals), Steve Howe (guitar), Chris Squire (bass), Alan White (drums), and Rick Wakeman (keys). Finally there are more general sections on touring and the band's music. Archive material and glimpses of the 2003 tour are interwoven with the interviews, but this is very much a documentary, not a concert (to see Yes at their modern best watchYes: Symphonic Live, 2002).The documentary puts a positive spin on a sometimes chequered past, and it's clearly aimed at long-term fans, but for those who have followed Yes through the decades this is satisfyingly comprehensive and thoroughly enjoyable; from Steve Howe's famous but still entertaining guitar/Concord story, to Rick Wakeman's tea break during a typically expansive prog-rock solo.On the DVD:Yesspeakcomes as a two-disc set. Disc 1 offers the first five chapters and 89 minutes of the documentary, while the remaining 80 minutes are featured on Disc 2. The picture is an excellent amamorphically enhanced 16:9 widescreen presentation, though by necessity the archive material is of variable quality. Switches into black and white and slow motion are a typically unnecessary distraction of the rock documentary format, but the DVD handles them well. There are excellent Dolby Digital 5.1 and DTS soundtracks and optional French, Dutch, Italian and Spanish subtitles. Disc 2 also showcases 126 minutes of concert audio. This is accompanied by concert photos but the sound is only Dolby Digital 5.1, without a DTS option. Although the sound is good it does not match the crystal clear quality of the same music as heard in fragments during the documentary itself. Presumably a DVD of the concerts will follow with much better sound, and the audio here will simply serve as a trailer for that release?--Gary S Dalkin

Advantages: A really great family movie Disadvantages: None
When it comes to milestones in movie making history there are few that can match up to the original Planet Of The Apes (1967), it handled social topics, cultural and religious issues, as well as creating the largest special effects spectacular the world had ever seen. Now in its 40th year Planet Of The Apes still manages to provide a stir of controversy while still looking clean and crisp; and most importantly despite the massive improvements in special effects make up, Planet Of The Apes still offers convincing looking visual imagery.
Based on Pierre Boulle's novel La Plančte des singes translated Monkey Planet; Planet Of The apes caused its makers many sleepless nights in the making. Initially they could not find anyone who wanted to get involved in the movie. But the casting of Hollywood legend Charlton Heston in his most ...

I have always loved Police academy from such a young age, I was lucky enough to be given the full collection at Christmas time.
Police Academy 20thAnniversary Edition
A Little Police Academy
As this is the 20thAnniversary edition I am reviewing I better set it clear, this particular DVD was released in April 2004.
Police academy first started back in 1984 with the release of the original film "Police Academy" But nobody thought they would be making a film each year until 1989 were they stopped filming these superb films. That was until another instalment was released in 1994. Sadly since 1994 there have been no more Police Academy's released.

THE DVD
The DVD is presented in 1.85:11 widescreen format with a 5.1 sound mix.
The first thing that struck me about the DVD was how clear and crisp the picture is, especially if you consider the age of the film.
It?s the extras that really made this a special disk, these include: - A documentary called 'The Fear Of God', various interviews with the actors & film makers, the original ending, commentaries by William Friedkin & William Peter Blatty, storyboards & sketches, and the usual trailers & TV spots.
OVERALL
I don?t think the film has really stood the test of time and while the extras of the DVD are excellent I feel that you buy a DVD for the film and the extras are really the icing on the cake. I will watch a good film many time, but extras rarely get viewed more that once or twice. ...
