What a refreshing change from the last few cheesy, old-fashioned, out-dated, badly scripted bonds. Hurrah for Daniel Craig, Jason bourne has nothing on you

This movie is an unimaginative, disjointed, incomprehensible waste of time. Very poorly edited, it's a real botched version of Pullman's story which is itself far, far less 'special' than most Amazon reviewers would have you believe. If my child was entertained by this dross, I'd be concerned! I'm just glad I didn't pay to see it.

I actually bought this as an Easter prezzy for my 5yo son (he doesn't like choccy!)

He's autistic & fanatical about cars, bikes, Top Gear & Jeremy Clarkson!

My son has watched this DVD at least 10 times already & still bounces off the walls every time!

Whilst i fail to see the avid interest in everything he does (he watches the Audi Channel for petes sake!!!), i can wholeheartedly say that this DVD deserves every bit of his approval.

Clarkson is at his dry, witty best. His presenting is excellent all the way through - & even if you're not a fan i dare you not to find some of Clarksons commentary laugh out loud funny.

With 'Supercar' in the title the cars are, of course, fabulous. ... Read More:

Although the show itself deserves a 5-star rating, I had to give this sale 4 stars because of the price. I have been a fan pf the Sopranos from the very start and can watch all seasons over and over again. However, after buying this on amazon for almost £120 I then saw a deluxe version box set (with extra footage and special features) for almost half the price! Nevertheless the show is brilliant, the DVDs are fantastic quality so it was well worth the money!

I was a bit concerned when I read some of the reviews, however, I thoroughly enjoyed every minute of this box-set, and do not agree with the criticisms levelled at the series by some of the people who have posted here.

I particularly disagree with the unfavourable comparisons to Robin of Sherwood. Both versions of the Robin Hood tale are thoroughly enjoyable romps which allow the viewer to temporarily escape mundane concrete reality.

Definitely worth 5 stars, and I am not easily pleased.

It was a risky storyline but i do believe they pulled it off. Tom Cruise plays a borderline alcoholic/burn out U.S cavalry soldier who travels to Japan to train the Emperors army in the art of modern warfare. He finds a country on the brink of civil war as the ancient Samurai clash with the modernist elements of the 'new' Japanese government.

Cruise is captured during the very first battle and is incarcerated in a mountain village of the Samurai. He quickly learns their language (yeah right) and begins to empathise with their ways and traditions. His loyalty turns and he finds himself standing shoulder to shoulder against the new Japanese army, sent to remove the Samurai.

Good action scenes abound.

Yes,this is a 70 year old movie and it has dated somewhat- but what entertainment value you get on this 4 disc DVD- it is without doubt one of the best DVDs ever released and the picture quality is as good as if it was made in the last few years. They don't make movies like this anymore and they never will again but at least we and future generations can always appreciate Gable and Leigh at their best and believe me millions of viewers will still be watching them in 100 years time when present so called movie stars will be long forgotten.

Season Two.
Another amusing gem from the prolific Dennis Spooner. This is regarded as the first of the Pseudo-Historicals, and is one of my favourite season two stories.
I can never feel anything but sorrow for the Monk at the end of this story as he's left stranded. I know he was a rogue, as witnessed by his Tardis full of stolen art treasures, but he did help the ancient Britons build Stonehenge with the aid of his anti-gravitational lift, after all.
"Carry on" film star Peter Butterworth plays the part of the monk with amusing relish. I would have loved to have seen him as a regular recurring.....I hesitate to use the word villain, so I'll say character instead.
And by being "shades of grey" in temperament, as opposed to the "black and white" pantomine personality ... Read More:
