VHS : Star Trek The Next Generation: All Good Things - The Full Length TV Movie [1994]
When i bought this version of all good things i was pleased to see that the feature leagth version has scenes in that were not in the two part version as released on video before this one i was glad to see that they had decided to end the series on a high note and that although we know that we would not the future as shown here because it would not happen as the enterprise d would get destroyed in generations it was a good look back at what was a great and exciting series as we see the enterprise fly away at the end i was sad that we would not see this crew again on a weekly basis apart from the odd film every couple of years a great ending to what was a exciting series.

VHS : Babylon 5 - Vol. 3 - Episodes 5 and 6 - Parliament Of Dreams / Mind War [1994]
In the first episode we have the chance to watch the cultural and religious differences of the various races that live aboard the station. This may sound boring, but it sets the basis for viewers to understand the hidden plot as it unfolds through each episode. Meanwhile, for those who love action, G'Car faces an assassin.

The next one, 'Mind War', introduces us with the Psy Corps, and a notorious Psy Cop, played beautifully by Walter Koenig (Star Trek TOS Checov).

If you want to have a better understanding of the episodes to follow, don't miss these two.

VHS : The Sicilian [1987]
No joke, this is two hours of amateurish stuff, which cannot really be called cinema without upsetting someone up there.
I just went back to see some of the scenes of this movie again because they are so ridiculous I wanted to have another go!

So, let's start in the right order (warning, contains some spoilers, but you're not really going to watch this movie, are you?):

- The fact that the movie was entirely in English should have given it away, very funny to hear would-be sicilians talking to each other in English.

- Past that, we encounter the limping professor. An attempt to add a sinister touch to an otherwise meaningless character. Very amateurish.

- Then came signs and inscriptions ... Read More:

VHS : Executive Decision [1996]
This film folks is very slow to start off with Seagal has a short part in the start and about 20 mins into it you start to think what is going on and then it turns boring with plots and plans not making much progress hardly any action till the end, the only thing that amused me was the asian guys haircut which had us all in tears very funny for us that was, This film is a slow mover which is made to be a suspense thriller which did not work well this film could of had a lot of potential having actors like kurt/Steven but failed to deliver in certain aspects it is ok to pass time but not worth the purchase in my opinion

VHS : Babylon 5 - Pilot [1993]
Babylon 5 is one of my all-time favourite shows and although this pilot episode for the series is nowhere near as good as the show itself, it is still enjoyable. As the alien ambassadors gather on Babylon 5 the Vorlon representative Kosh is the target of an assassination attempt and the stations commander Jeffrey Sinclair is implicated.

Although not nearly as good as the series itself, this pilot does include some of the things that made Babylon 5 so good, such as an interesting plot and generally good writing. On the downside much of the CGI effects used here are rather poor and some of the acting on display is truly atrocious. There are a few changes between here and the series proper, with three of the characters being replaced and some of ... Read More:

VHS : Babylon 5 - In The Beginning [1998]
Keeping this short and sweet, i dont want to spoil anything for anyone who hasnt seen it, this is a great sci-fi movie. On its own it could be a little confusing so i would reccomend seeing the first few seasons of the series first. It has a great story and acting and some of the best special effects in a straight to video and dvd release. The spaceships all move as they would in real life, no unrealistic WWII style dogfights here (Lucasfilm really need to brush up on their physics!), the Earth Force Starfury slides, rotates, and pulls off maneouvres that you will never see an x-wing do. And the Minbari ships are works of art. Buy it and you wont be dissapointed.

This is a great movie that deserves alot more attention. There are some funny elements in place as well. This is a great movie if you like UFO's. It may be a little slow for some people but the plot should keep you interested.

Error 1) Bald guard from bus is being congratulated for saving the stabbed guard (who was actually saved by Kimble) - The stabbed guard then turns up later and everyone acts as if he's just been found "under the train".

Error 2) The supposedly "smart" Marshal tries to shoot Kimble during the prisoner visit when he obviously knows full well that he's innocent from the scene at the hospital.
