The Bounty Hunter (Blu-Ray)
Just what is it with Jennifer Aniston? She’s been married to one of the biggest stars in Hollywood, she’s an incredibly beautiful woman, she has hair that most women would kill for, she has a great figure, she’s had a hugely successful TV career and she can, when she puts her mind to it, act. Yet for some reason it’s never quite happened for her. She’s never had that breakthrough film that other actresses of a similar ilk (Sandra Bullock for example) managed to get. Of course, she’s hardly helping herself on that front as she seems to play the same character in every film she’s in. Perhaps she’s just given up and realised that... Read DVD Review
The Karate Kid Part II (Blu-Ray)
The Karate Kid part II follows straight on from where the Karate Kid left off, at least it does after a rather lengthy montage of scenes from the first film designed to get you up to speed on past events.

Sister Clodagh (Kerr) has been put in charge of the newly christened St. Faith, formerly the Palace... Read DVD Review
The Karate Kid (Blu-Ray)
In a decision fuelled in some small part no doubt by the 2010 remake with Jackie Chan and Will Smith’s son Jaden, the original Karate Kid (starring a much older than he looks Ralph Macchio, and an about the right age Pat Morita, gets its first release on Blu-Ray. The Karate Kid was originally released in a digital format back in 2003, on a Trilogy DVD set crammed with special features, but sadly... Read DVD Review
The Red Shoes: Criterion Collection
The Red Shoes (1948) is steeped in the rich tradition of backstage musicals but instead of making a comedy – the norm for many musicals – filmmakers Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger opted for a drama. The project actually began in 1934 when producer Alexander Korda wanted to make a biopic about dancer Nijinsky. The plot was based on the Hans Christian Andersen fairy tale The Red Shoes with...
