Average Rating:	Killer Net [1998] starring: Tam Williams, Paul Bettany, Emily Woof, Kathy Brolly, Mark Tandy directed by: Geoffrey Sax August 14, 2006		List Price: Â£5.99 Vegetarian Books Price: Â£3.97 You Save: £2.02 (34%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: Â£1.87
Great acting. The film is 3 hours long but it really will not feel like it. It is brilliant. You really feel for the characters. This is full of suspense and twist. The film follows all the characters and pieces things together perfectly. It makes you look at internet games in a different way. The question is will they actually make this game ? I hope so in a way (just for fun obviously). It is a film that i found myself asking... If only !!! you will see what i mean when you watch it. This will not dissapoint. >>More Details

Average Rating:	The Buccaneers [1995] (REGION 1) (NTSC) starring: Carla Gugino, Alison Elliott, Mira Sorvino, Rya Kihlstedt, Mark Tandy directed by: Philip Saville April 18, 2006		Used Price: Â£7.00
If you like period drama this represents 5 hours of sheer bliss. In my book its up there with the best including "Brideshead Revisited" and "Dance to the Music of Time". Fine acting, superb locations,( including Castle Howard) and highest production values. I had to watch it on my computer though. If it was made by the BBC with our licence money how come its only available as a Region 1 DVD? >>More Details

Average Rating:	The Alan Clark Diaries [2004] starring: John Hurt, Jenny Agutter, Hugh Fraser, Nicholas Jones, Jeremy Clyde May 03, 2004		List Price: Â£16.99 Vegetarian Books Price: Â£12.98 You Save: £4.01 (24%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: Â£11.10
John Hurt stars as controversial, real life, Conservative MP, Alan Clark, a man who sees everything slightly differently from everybody else. A man who schemes and dreams of high office despite a succession of gaffes, scandals (drink, women, ill chosen remarks) and self doubts. Whilst in the corridors of power, Alan Clark offers his own inimitable insight to leading Tory colleagues during the Thatcher years. This is very entertaining and many a time the Alan Clark interpretation of events will make you laugh. Amazingly this is 'a true to life' recollection of his diaries, which leaves you a little open mouthed, but it is all good stuff. Unmissable. >>More Details

Average Rating:	The World According to Garp [1982] (REGION 1) (NTSC) starring: Robin Williams, Mary Beth Hurt, Glenn Close, John Lithgow, Hume Cronyn directed by: George Roy Hill April 03, 2001		Used Price: Â£5.56
I saw this first when I was 18. Even now at 35 I still watch it again and enjoy just as much the weird characters and belivable lives they all live. Williams, in his first movie, I think, inspired me to live without missing a sunrise or appreciating the really positive wholesome things about life. This movie is also the World according to ME!. >>More Details

Average Rating:	The Luzhin Defence [2000] starring: John Turturro, Emily Watson, Geraldine James, Stuart Wilson, Christopher Thompson directed by: Marleen Gorris February 19, 2001		List Price: Â£19.99 Vegetarian Books Price: Â£17.97 You Save: £2.02 (10%) Prices subject to change. Used Price:
Having read & reviewed Nabokov's original book version (The Luzhin Defense (Penguin Modern Classics)), let me first stress that despite a few important changes, the film is as admirably faithful to the book as a visual work can be while remaining visual & gripping. Now to the film on its own merits. Simply put, this is a confidently directed, precisely acted, & superbly staged tragedy - but unlike many tragedies, it concludes with a partial redemption. Alexander Luzhin is a Chess grandmaster, clumsy, eccentric, & "nerdy" even by the roomy standards of the interwar Chess world. As brilliant & agile as he shows himself on his 64-square, black & white stage, as heavy, confused, & fragile is his earthly existence. ... Read More: >>More Details

Average Rating:	Shackleton [2002] starring: Kenneth Branagh, John Grillo, Paul Humpoletz, Phoebe Nicholls, Eve Best directed by: Charles Sturridge April 14, 2003		Used Price: Â£7.24
I SO wanted to give this five stars. If I would ever claim to have a hero, Shackleton is the man I would name and this could have been the defining biopic of his tremendous adventure in the Antarctic in 1914-1916. It has the directorial heft of Charles Sturridge (Brideshead Revisited. Need I say more?), who also wrote the screen play but it has it faults: 1) What a shame it was filmed in Greenland rather than the correct hemisphere. I know this was due to the problem of finding manageable conditions in which to work but it's a bit like finding that a film about Lawrence of Arabia was shot in Nevada. 2) In the course of the 3hr20min film, far too much concentration is placed on the fundraising and organisational preamble. Important to a degree, this nonetheless feels ... Read More: >>More Details

Average Rating:	Voyage to the Planets and Beyond [2004] (REGION 1) (NTSC) starring: David Suchet, Martin McDougall, Joanne McQuinn, Rad Lazar, Mark Dexter directed by: Christopher Riley, Joe Ahearne May 24, 2005		Used Price: Â£10.08
Also called Space Odyssey for those of you with Region 2 players, (normal uk DVD players). This program is great! Based on the concept of, "If we had carried on spending on the space program after Apollo 11, this is where we would be", this is great TV. One of the new style of docudramas this DVD entertains from the start and you really feel for the crew of the Pegasus on it's voyage. This kept my class of 11 year olds engrossed for its whole length and thats going some for the Xbox generation! >>More Details
