VHS : Romeo And Juliet [1997]
Personally I love this film. I would recommend it to anyone. There are so many memorable performances that it's hard to single anyone out. For me, John Leguiziamo as Tybalt gives an incredibly muscular, powerful performance, while Pete Postlethwaite (the Friar) and Paul Sorvino (Juliet's father) are compelling, even quietly astonishing. The leads have a chemistry that manages to be both sweet and deeply passionate at the same time, which makes the curtailment of their love all the more tragic.

Also, for once, Mercutio does not steal the show. I have seen so many performances where the death of Mercutio seems to be the greatest tragedy of the play and the loss of the lovers a sad addendum to it. In this film, while Mercutio's ... Read More:

3.Strictly Ballroom [1992] starring: Paul Mercurio, Tara Morice, Bill Hunter, Pat Thomson, Gia Carides

VHS : Strictly Ballroom [1992]
What do you get if you combine comedy, dancing, sparkles and false tan? Strictly Ballroom!

The main character, Scott, likes to make up his own moves when ballroom dancing and as a result loses his dance partner. Enter Fran, geeky, spotty, plain Jane, who wants Scott to teach her how to dance. Scotts pushy mother is not to keen on this arrangement.

This was always one of my favourites as a child.
This is a quirky, funny film that will be enjoyed by kids and adults alike.

VHS : Moulin Rouge! [2001]
At first, my wife and I thought it just had a long arty f@rty starting, but after 25 minutes of loud shouty bizarre colour schemes we got a head ache and gave up.

Our advice, unless you are arty f@rty or are just trying to impress someone, don't bother watching this tripe.

I wish I could have given this a negative number 0 is too kind and giving it a 1 is far too generous.

VHS : Romeo And Juliet [1996]
This isn't like any Shakespeare you'll have ever seen. This isn't like anything you'll have ever seen. Shot in a style which makes NYPD Blue look sedate, Baz Luhrman's version of Romeo and Juliet is one to take the breath away. The story is the same, the setting totally different. Placed in a world of pimps and drugs, crime and revenge Romeo and Juliet sizzles with the wit, energy and passion that the bard deserves. The acting throughout is superb with DiCaprio and Danes in especially good form. John Leguizamo's Tybalt also deserves a mention as a brilliant characterisation. This has to be the best version of Romeo and Juliet around. With a brilliant soundtrack, incredible camera work and of course the incomparable script this film is a work of art that deserves to ...
