Silver Linings Playbook DVD Release Review *----

Cert 15 | 122 mins

In the spirit of generosity I have given this film 1 star.
For a film which actually won awards, it is almost impossible to find any redeeming features here.
This film is based on the debut novel by Matthew Quick and directed by David O. Russell (Three kings, The Fighter).
The story-line is almost mind mindbogglingly tedious. Although you can just about tell where they are going…more

The Princess Bride 25th Anniversary Edition Blu-ray Release *****

Cert PG | 94 mins

This is as fabulous as ever, 4.5 stars for both the film and for the 25th Anniversary extras and bonus features.
The Princess Bride is a classic fairy tale, originally released in 1987 and lovingly converted here to Blu-ray to celebrate the 25th anniversary of its birth. The re-mastered version is just brilliant, the film doesn’t even really look that dated…more

12 In A Box DVD Release Review ****-

Cert 12 | 93 mins

This is a very entertaining film and I have given it 3.5 stars.
12 In A Box is a classic British farce in every sense of the word. It perfectly captures the spirit of the Carry On film era, in a way that the new Carry On films completely failed to do.
The film tells the story of twelve individuals of varying ages and social…more

End Of Watch DVD and Blu-ray Release Review *****

Cert 15 | 109 mins

This is an excellent film, 4.5 stars for this gritty, fast paced thriller.
End Of Watch is a documentary style film, written and directed by David Ayer (Training Day, The Fast and the Furious).
The film tells the story of two cops, partners and friends, who patrol the streets of Los Angeles together. We follow them around through their daily routines, occasionally…more

The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey: DVD review *****

Cert 12 | 166 mins

If only, (Sighs Deeply) I could give this 1000 out of 5, I would.
5 Star film all the way.
Peter Jackson (Lord of the Rings trilogy) is the god of making epics and this first episode of the Hobbit (J.R.R. Tolkien) is just showing the others how it is done.
(Take notice those thinking of doing Star Wars episodes)
Gandalf (Ian McKellan –…more

Liver Birds Collection One on DVD review ****-

Cert PG | 360 mins

4 star classic comedy from the early 70s.
Who would have believed that a series written about two girls sharing a flat together would run from 1969 through till 1979 and then on to 1996, but it was written by one of the greats Carla Lane (Solo, Bread, Butterflies) and Myra Taylor and that’s the reason it has lasted the test…more

I Didn’t Come Here To Die DVD Release Review ***--

Cert 18 | 77 mins

This is definitely what I would have expected from this genre of film, so I have given it 3 stars.

I Didn’t Come Here To Die is almost a teen horror flick (I think they may be slightly older, but that makes little difference to the story). A group of young people head off to an improbably remote location to begin…more
