MIB
Excellent Blu-ray. I owned the Superbit version of the film, which has been replaced with the Blu-ray. Outstanding picture and sound. Worth the upgrade to Blu-ray if you previously owned the film...

V for Vendetta [Blu-ray]

Natalie Portman, Hugo Weaving

Warner Home Video, 2008

V for Vendetta
V for Vendetta is one of the best movies I have ever seen. When I first saw it I thought it was just ok but since then I have seen it atleast 10 times. The score by Dario Marianelli is fantastic. I would highy recommened this movie to everyone. Great story, great ...

Secretary

Maggie Gyllenhaal, James Spader

Lionsgate, 2003

genuine weirdos find love via sado-masochism
(SPOILER WARNING.) There is no question that this is one of the oddest love stories I have ever seen. A young woman, with a quirky beauty that reveals itself over the course of the film, evolves from a self-mutilating mental patient to a fully realized and loving ...

The Fifth Element (Remastered) [Blu-ray]

Bruce Willis, Gary Oldman

Sony Pictures, 2007

pure entertainment
well after purchasing a 58"samsung plasma hdtv, and playstation for the blue ray,,, I had to get the 5th element blue ray as my first purchase. Wondering how much of a difference there would be from the std dvd, I can tell you that it is just beyond words. Now enough ...

Terminator 2: Judgment Day [Blu-ray]

Arnold Schwarzenegger, Linda Hamilton

Lions Gate, 2006

The perfect sequel
This is how to make a follow up. T2 pushes the envelope at every level and thrills all over the place. The sfx are incredible - worth every penny of the $100m+ budget. A brilliant action movie. Everyone should own it.

No Country for Old Men [Blu-ray]

Javier Bardem, Rodger Boyce

WALT DISNEY VIDEO, 2008

Better than i heard
I enjoyed this movie throughout, had some interesting characters in it and was pretty decent. You'll either love or hate this film, probably because of how it ended.

Rambo [Blu-ray]

Julie Benz, Ken Howard

Lionsgate Home Entertainment, 2008

Intense.
"Rambo" (2008) is the fourth installment in the Rambo franchise after "First Blood" (1982), "Rambo: First Blood Part II" (1985) and "Rambo III" (1988). I'm a huge fan of the first one, which I think is an action/adventure masterpiece, but the next two films are merely ...

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (Widescreen Edition)

Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson (II)

Warner Home Video, 2007

Order of the Phoenix is Great!
Having read all the books in the series I was interested in seeing "The Order." I was and remain happy that so much concern is given to adhering to the essence of the book. Naturally, it is impossible to include in a 2 0r 3 hour movie every detail as laid out by J.K. ...

Rescue Dawn

Christian Bale, Steve Zahn

MGM Home Entertainment, 2007

Terrific film; great story
I saw this movie coming and I was very surprised it did not make a bigger impact at the box office. In fact, it was out of the theaters so quickly I missed it, so I waited for the recent DVD release. I was not disappointed. Rescue Dawn tells the true story of Dieter ...

Spider-Man 3 (Widescreen Edition)

Tobey Maguire, Kirsten Dunst

Sony Pictures, 2007

Okay, but too much crammed into one movie...
Spiderman 3 a necessary title to complete you spiderman collection, but wouldn't be too concerned with getting a copy. ACtion wise its amazing as usual, nothing less what you would expect from a marvel title. however unlike the first two spiderman titles there's to ...

21 [Blu-ray]

Jim Sturgess, Kevin Spacey

Sony Pictures, 2008

Are You A Gambler?
This is a very enjoyable movie for any gambler from beginner to pro. Just don't go to the casino after watching it thinking you're going to break the bank.

Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest [Blu-ray]

Johnny Depp, Orlando Bloom

Walt Disney Pictures, 2007

Dead Man's Chest is a sure winner!
Fast-paced adventure on the high seas, a cast of comic, swashbuckling pirates, and good ol' Captain Jack Sparrow- how much better could it get?! The sequel picks up where the first movie left off. This time, the action centers on a new set of villains: the corrupt ...

3:10 to Yuma [Blu-ray]

Christian Bale, Russell Crowe

Lions Gate, 2008

This Is Now My Favourite Movie Of All Time
Now I will admit something right of the bat before I get into my review. I have only recently seen this movie and turned down a number of opportunities to watch this film simply because it is a western. I will now hold my hands up and say how wrong I was and after ...

A Man for All Seasons (Special Edition)

Paul Scofield, Wendy Hiller

Sony Pictures, 2007

Do not rent this movie, OWN it.
This Academy Award winning movie is a miracle. Fred Zinnemann's cinematic treatment of the play by Robert Bolt has a quality of luminous economy. The casting is amazing. Every member of the cast is just right, from Paul Scofield as Sir Thomas More and Dame Wendy ...
