I'm a real fan of sci-fi, and a big fan of this show, but I found this season very slow to take off. The "spiritual"/"destiny" element was so overwhelming in the early episodes that (romantic, chick-flick girl that I am) I found myself longing for a couple of dog-fights and explosions! I still can't come to terms with Lee Adama as a besuited politician. I'm sick of Kara Thrace mooching around talking about visions of earth. Things only came alive for me when we finally have the encounter with the rebel Cylons, and the four Cylons of the fleet are revealed. It felt like a bit of a long wait to get to this point. I will still be buying Series 5, and this series is a necessary link - hopefully they are saving the best for last. >>More Details

I missed the entire Battlestar Glactica oeuvre when it came out (indeed the original series as well) but read so many reviews about the allegorical sophistication of BG, I thought I'd better check it out. The obvious place to start is the 2004 mini-series, assembled on DVD as a three-hour feature (and selling for less than four quid on Amazon as I write). Aficionados claim the series doesn't get into its stride until later, but this was for me an impressive opener. The human species is attacked by the Cylons, a robot-race that comes in two distinctive designs; toaster-on-legs and hot, hot humanoid. Thanks to some sexy treachery involving the latter, the human defences are annihilated leaving a rag-bag of refugee vessels, clustered round the eponymous ... Read More: >>More Details

Please note that this DOES NOT include Sharpe's Challenge. Despite being informed previously, Amazon continue to advertise that it does. There are several other suppliers advertising the same - perhaps they are all getting their text from the same place. But I can confirm 100% that the Amazon description is incorrect and that Sharpe's Challenge IS NOT INCLUDED. Score is based on site listing not the product. >>More Details

As mentioned above, the show rocks. Edward James Olmos again excelled as Adama. And so did Michelle Forbes as Admiral Cain. But even though the show is delivered via DVD, I could'nt help thinking it looks and feel as if I'm watching VCD. So my rating is based on the show(content) alone and not on the video quality(DVD). >>More Details

Average Rating:	Planes, Trains & Automobiles [1987] starring: Steve Martin, John Candy, Laila Robins, Michael McKean, Kevin Bacon directed by: John Hughes October 08, 2001		List Price: Â£15.99 Vegetarian Books Price: Â£3.98 You Save: £12.01 (75%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: Â£2.09
Amazon's review is simply wrong... This movie is one of my favourite ever comedies, with Steve Martin and John Candy at their finest. The movie never gets boring, the comedy is continuous. There are parts of this movie which make make me cry with laughter no matter how many times I watch them. I highly recommend this movie to anyone, there is some strong language in it so I wouldn't recommend it as a family movie. >>More Details

Fantastic film as we all know, but the quality is not worth paying for a Bluey. Get the DVD at a fraction of the cost, it's just as good. >>More Details

I originally had no intentions of watching this film let alone buying it, but then I got curious, so I picked it up for a couple of pounds. I'm very pleased that I did, I think this gives a very good account of what happened or what may have happened in the aftermath of the death of Princess Diana. There are excellent portrayals of The Queen (Dame Helen Mirren), Prince Phillip (James Cromwell) and Tony Blair (Michael Sheen), strangely enough there is very little screen time given to Prince Charles, which I found a little strange. I was never a great fan of Princess Diana, nor for that matter Tony Blair, although it does not harp on about how "wonderful" Princess Diana was, it does grind on me a bit how much they appear to credit Blair as if everything that was ...

Average Rating:	Educating Rita [1983] starring: Michael Caine, Julie Walters, Michael Williams, Maureen Lipman, Jeananne Crowley directed by: Lewis Gilbert October 20, 2003		List Price: Â£9.99 Vegetarian Books Price: Â£3.98 You Save: £6.01 (60%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: Â£2.90
A lovely film. Michael Caine does a wonderful job playing the self-destructive but intelligent and warmhearted Dr Frank Bryant, and Julie Walters immerses herself in the character of Rita, a lively and witty hairdresser who decides to enroll in an open University course. The script is perfect, making for a touching film full of insights into human relationships, hopes and desires. As an aside, for anyone familiar with Dublin, the film was shot in the city, mostly in Trinity College, which is fun to see as it was in the 80s, and works as a perfect setting for the film. >>More Details

Average Rating:	Romancing The Stone / The Jewel Of The Nile [1986] starring: Michael Douglas, Kathleen Turner, Danny DeVito, Zack Norman, Alfonso Arau directed by: Lewis Teague, Robert Zemeckis August 13, 2001		List Price: Â£14.99 Vegetarian Books Price: Â£4.98 You Save: £10.01 (67%) Prices subject to change.

Now you wouldn't believe me if I said this, but I think Jewel of the nile is the better of the two. Why? You are asking. Romancing the stone is great, but lacked the action then it did with the romance. Yes, Romancing the stone was too romantic for me, still enjoyed it though. Jewel of the nile however is quite different, there is a bit of romance, but it has more comedy and action. So, do see both films, but don't expect to much from Romancing the stone if you're an action type. >>More Details
