1.		A Bridge Too Far/The Great Escape/Battle Of Britain from 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment Price: £8.97 Customer Review: There is nothing I can add to the reviews for each of the individual films which rate as classics in the war film genre. I'm of that generation that can remember it being a really big event especially at Christmas when the Great Escape was on the telly and like many people can remember it scene by... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

2.		The Barchester Chronicles [1982] from Cinema Club Price: £8.98 Customer Review: This adaptation of Anthony Trollope's Barchester novels seems to be best remembered now as the television serial that made the name of Alan Rickman. Certainly I suspect that many of the people who have picked up this DVD have done so because of the presence of its breakthrough star. Those who do... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

3.		The Great Escape [1963] from MGM Entertainment Customer Review: The film is great - however, the DVD format, at least the one I recevied, is awful - the film appears to be in a 4:3 format. The quality of the picture is terrible, and on a widescreen tv the picture sits in a tiny box in the centre of the screen. If this DVD hadn't come from Amazon, I would suspect... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information

4.		Halloween [1978] from Starz Home Entertainment Price: £2.98 Customer Review: Halloween surely remains, thirty years on, the definitive `Teens in peril' film. I use this term because `Horror' or `Slasher' do not apply here. Halloween is economical, if not entirely bereft, of either horror or slash and it is this economy which gives the film most of its strength, although many... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

5.		The Outer Limits - The Original Series - Vol. 1 from MGM Entertainment Price: £8.97 Customer Review: There are some good episodes, and some terrible. All the best episodes that I remember seeing on BBC from my school days are here, but I think 'the best of the outer limits' would have been better, drawn from the whole 1960's show. Despite the B/W and the rubber suits, some of the effects are quite... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

6.		Hell Is A City [1959] from Cinema Club Price: £3.38 Customer Review: Baker, Whitelaw, Pleasance, some big names in a low budget attempt at gritty noir. The grit is supplied by the setting, Manchester, but this itself causes the film its biggest problems. Baker's accent wobbles all over the place, as it does for one or two other non-northern actors in the film. One of... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information

7.		You Only Live Twice [1967] from MGM Entertainment Price: £10.28 Customer Review: I peronally think this is one of Seans best bond movies. The writers kept the action and jokes coming thick and fast and the Japan locations are great. Donald Pleasance is the best bloefeld ever and his make-up is second to none and Akiko Wakabayashi has one of the best roles for a bond girl.

8.		Henry VIII And His Six Wives [1972] from Cinema Club Price: £2.98 Customer Review: From an early age I had an interest in the Tudors, and my parents bought me this film when I was still at school. I very much enjoyed it at the time - it seemed to encapsulate everything that was interesting about Henry VIII, his personal life and his six wives. The costumes and settings were... more info	Customer Rating: 3.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information

9.		The Eagle Has Landed (Special Edition) [1977] from ITV DVD Price: £15.69 Customer Review: While the Carlton 2-DVD release offers both the original theatrical cut and the extended version of the film (kicking off with the gathering of Himmler, Canaris and Hitler in Bavaria which led to the fateful chain of events), this only offers the extended version. I personally think the... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information

10.		The Caretaker [1963] from Bfi Video Price: £17.98 Customer Review: A good version of the Pinter thought piece. Directing this piece either for stage or film requires a touch that enables the viewer to catch up with its possible under themes, and to reflect on the carefully written dialogue. This is done well here, the camera lingering on certain scenes when all the... more info	Customer Rating: 3.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information
