2.The 13th Warrior [1999] starring: Antonio Banderas, Diane Venora, Vladimir Kulich, Dennis Storhøi, Daniel Southern directed by: John McTiernan, Michael Crichton February 28, 2000

This has been consistantly my favourite film for a long time. I don't know why? I have watched it six or seven times, always enjoying it, the story is pacey, there's humour, action, and loads more. Banderas shouldn't fit but does and gives, for me, his best performance in a film. Buy with confidence, fills loads of genres, action, adventure, fantasy, heroic fantasy, etc etc. Enjoy.

4.The First Great Train Robbery [1978] starring: Sean Connery, Donald Sutherland, Lesley-Anne Down, Alan Webb, Malcolm Terris directed by: Michael Crichton March 19, 2001
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: £6.16
To the reviewer 'nomad1888' who bizarrely claims that there was no great train robbery in 1885! Of course there was, It was very real and very famous. Why you never bothered to confirm this on the internet you obviously have access to, before putting foot in mouth, i have no idea.? Apart from a few minor differences especially at the end the film is historically quite accurate. Great performances all round, especially showing the painstaking detail that was gone into. The judge at the trial even took a liking to Edward Agar, stating that he wished that the man had put his obvious genius into honest endevour, as he would still have made a fortune in any business he went into.

5.Runaway [1985] (REGION 1) (NTSC) starring: Tom Selleck, Cynthia Rhodes, Gene Simmons, Kirstie Alley, Stan Shaw directed by: Michael Crichton August 22, 2000

I HAVE WACHED THIS FILM MANY TIMES ON BOTH T V AND THE BIG SCREEN IT HAS A DISTINCT TASTE OF SUSPENCE TOM SELECK KEEPS AN EXTRA LEVEL OF OUTSTANDING ACTING AND I WUOLD RECCOMEND THAT BOTH SCI-FI AND TOM FANS BUY IT NOW IF YOU HAV'NT ALREADY.

6.Physical Evidence [1988] starring: Burt Reynolds, Theresa Russell, Ned Beatty, Kay Lenz, Ted McGinley directed by: Michael Crichton February 16, 2004
Average Rating: >>More Details		Off The Bookshelf's Price: £9.99 Prices subject to change. Used Price: £2.00
Physical Evidence is one of those films that you want to like but really should be a lot better than it actually is. Developed as a sequel to Jagged Edge for Glenn Close and Robert Loggia, it gives the impression that all involved only made it while they were waiting for something better to come along. The premise is perfectly serviceable, it's mostly technically efficient if horribly uninspired with even Henry Mancini's musacky score surprisingly pleasant, but you can't help feeling that things would have turned out better if one of the leads had turned out to be the killer (as is rumoured was originally the case). As the opening scene of his little-seen, personally disastrous Heat (1986) showed, Reynolds has all the makings of a great screen villain. ... Read More:
