241.Flash Gordon - Complete Series 1 [2007] starring: Eric Johnson, Gina Holden, Karen Cliche, Jody Racicot, John Ralston directed by: Pat Williams, Paul Shapiro, T.J. Scott July 28, 2008

This is one of those wooden Sc-Fi series that just grows on you and before you know it you can't wait to see the next episode. It is filled with Hot Chicks who spend far to many hours in the gym (look out for Ming's daughter), which can also be said about actor who plays Flash Gordon instead of those all important acting lessons! In fact: you'll find yourself rooting for "Ming the Merciless" (not to be confused with the ex-Lib Dem Leader) played by John Ralston who clearly can act! This series is closer to Lexx than the tiresomely serious Battlestar Glactica series, which I also own. Of course, its no where near the Stargate franchise, but if you can appreciate a less full on version of Lexx with bigger budget then ... Read More:

Boring...boring...boring!!!The plot is all a bit obvious and you know what is coming all the way through. Also, the (animal) special effects did not gel very well.why do Hollywood scriptwriters think they can improve on good books when all the do is dumb them down into unbelievable trash. Alternate ending isn't much better where he does go off with them, it's a cheap imitation of resident evil which has been there, done that, & did it much better. One to rent if you have no paintwork to oversee the drying of.

I'm not sure why as it certainly dons't appeal to me but my son - just turned two - will sit and watch this constantly if you let him! He finds it hilarious - he also has a blanket like Elmo and has taken to kissing it 'like Elmo' and can recite most of what Elmo says. He had never watched Elmo before this but it still appeals.

Season 2 picks up where season 1 left off, and boy this season does not dissapoint, full of action yet again. season 2 starts off ok and gradually builds up and we get to see how vulcans can have an active imagination when Trip asks T'Pol for an interesting story in the captains private dining hall. later on we get to see what implications come off the Destruction of J'Pem and the andorian connection and how the klingons want Captain Archer arrested or dead. Yet again another wacky adventure to brace yourself for. recommended to buy season 2 in order to find out how season 3 starts and what the costs are when this new alien race attacks earth.

This is real telly history. The whole Doctor Who/Tardis concept still astounds me with the imagination that went into its creation. The original mass of sound effects that was the opening theme was changed years ago, but not for the better. The light distortions the bass sounds and the asthmatic Tardis sounds, with howling ,fading echo were all there and gave the show a totally original look and feel . The'unearthly child, both versions are good to watch. Introducing a great cast headed by the wonderful William Hartnell. The stone age story was alright, although the arrival in the middle of nowhere by the Tardis at the beginning was visually stunning. As was the arrival in the petrified forest in the Dalek story, that was genuinley ... Read More:

For someone who doesn't usually like romantic films, i was pleasantly suprised with this one. All the actors were on top form, as well as Brad Pitt, who gave a performance of many faces. The gorgeous Claire Forlani gave, what i see to be, her best performance so far. The story has the detail, but the almost 3 hours of film actually fly by. It has humour, love and class, which keeps you glued to your seat. I hope you enjoy it as much as i did!!

Regarding the language problem on these DVDs, I've found that my copies of seasons one and two play in German by default too. I think it's just a little annoyance we have to put up with.

"The Time Machine" remains a timeless film although the special effects in this 50 year old film are now somewhat dated. Rod Taylor plays the time traveller who travels forward in time by tens of thousands of years to find humanity divided into two; living on the Earth's surface are the Eloi, a passive,stupid but beautiful people who are preyed upon by the subterranean cannibalistic Morlocks.The hideous Morlocks do all the work while the Eloi live lives of idle leisure.Clearly the film is making inferences about the class system on Earth in the current age, perhaps taking things to extremes to make a point.When I was younger I found the scenes where Taylor fought the Morlocks in their cave terrifying , but the passage of time has dimmed their impact somewhat. However "The Time Machine" ... Read More:
