Jennifer Garner reprises and expands her role from Daredevil as as assassin for hire who becomes protector of a girl (with a secret) and her father. It's better than I was expecting from it's largely risible reviews. In fact, I was pretty much entertained throughout. It looks good and doesn't outstay it's welcome but the best thing about it is Jennifer Garner, who can kick my ass any day. I'm an Alias fan and thought 13 Going On 30 was way underrated, so I shouldn't have been suprised that her presence would elevate this film in my eyes. Without her it would have been 2/5, but with her it's a 3.

It was not bad but only 8 episodes long, so not something to buy, need I say more?

DVD : Marvel Heroes : X-Men / X-Men 2 / X-Men 3 The Last Stand / Elektra / Daredevil / Fantastic Four (6 Disc Box Set) [2006]
I bought my set from Direct Offers for 2.21 plus 1.24 postage via Amazon marketplace - it arrived shrink-wrapped.

So I've already seen X-men 1-3 at the cinema and looking forward to seeing them again. All watchable.

Just watched Fantastic 4 and it was a fun movie - not exactly challenging, but keeps going at a nice pace. Fun stuff.

My only reservation on buying this boxset was that I had read reviews saying that the director's cut of Daredevil is so much better than the original version - then when I open this set I find that it is the director's cut that has been included.

So, haven't watched this or Elektra yet, but already feel like I've got my money's worth and much more.

I cant begin to describe how awful this film is. The story is dreadful and the acting is even worse, I hate quitting on a film so I forced myself to watch all the way through and by the time it was finished I was propping my eyes open with matchsticks!!!!How rubbish and a waste of time and effort. DO NOT BOTHER!

Comic book fans will have plenty to gorge themselves on here - four superhero movies, ranging from modern classic to...well...bargain bin.

First off - Xmen 1 and 2. Both top action films. The first one is a real character ensemble. The action is not so heavy, and its more drama, character led. Hugh Jackman embodis the character of Wolverine so well it is hard to imagine anybody else in the role.

Xmen 2 is more action packed, but lacks the subtlety of the first movie. Still, it is a real blast, the characters get slightly swamped with the new introductions of night crawler and Stryker, but for thrills per minute, you can't do much wrong here. The raid on the X mansion is brilliant.

Daredevil is an incredibly under rated movie. It is ... Read More:

DVD : Die Another Day [2002] (REGION 1) (NTSC)
James Bond (Brosnan) is being tortured in Korea until one day he is traded for terrorist Zao (Yune). On a mission to track him down again, Bond finds himself involved in the diamond market.

3 years after `The World is not enough' Pierce Brosnan made an eagerly anticipated return as the secret agent and gives another good performance in an underappreciated action thriller.

Brosnan, Berry, Stephens, Pike, Yune and Dench have all cemented their roles into the plot with good performances, especially Rosamund Pike (Pride and Prejudice) who is easily the best Bond girl of the Brosnan era. Her cold heartedness and hard to get approach is similar to that of Sophie Marceau's Electra in the previous Bond and is hailed as one of the best actresses to grace the ... Read More:
