1.		The Last King Of Scotland [2006] from 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment Price: £4.98 Customer Review: I don't tend to follow award nominations, as they can be very pretentious. However, at this price, I thought to give it a try. I have to say I was not disappointed! I remember something of this regime on television as I was growing up, but did not know much about it. This film had a compelling... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

The Painted Veil [2007] from Momentum Pictures Price: £4.98 Customer Review: For some reason this film bypassed me on its first release, but eventually I caught up with it at the cinema and on dvd.

5.		Perfume - The Story Of A Murderer [2006] from Pathe Distribution Ltd Price: £4.98 Customer Review: People have already mentioned the moral, political and social arguments that could damn this film to the excitable realms of unpopular cult obscure, please ignore them and read the book first, then decide on the film.

6.		Music and Lyrics [2007] from Warner Home Video Price: £4.98 Customer Review: I didn't have particularly high expectations of this film... but found myself pleasantly surprised. Especially by Hugh Grant's performance as an Andrew Ridgeley-esque 'has-been' 80's pop performer. The pop pastiche elements of this film are really well done - the 80s-styled 'PoP goes my heart' video... more info	Customer Rating: 3.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information

7.		Blood Diamond [2006] from Warner Home Video Price: £4.98 Customer Review: This film, based on the dreadful events of 1990's Sierra Leone (limbs hacked off, families massacred etc) is in the 4 to 5 star range. It could be upsetting for some people to watch, because it DOES show brutality, sadism, indifferent UN officials suffering from compassion-fatigue. In a word, it is... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information

9.		Amazing Grace [2007] from Momentum Pictures Home Ent Price: £4.98 Customer Review: An enjoyable film , but not as powerful or as moving as the film Amistad in conveying the cruelty and injustice of slavery. Despite this, an enjoyable film, especially the rousing bagpipe rendition of Amazing Grace at the end which was worth the price of the DVD alone.

10.		The Illusionist [2006] from Momentum Picture Home Ent Price: £4.98 Customer Review: The Illusionist is the most sumptuous recreation of the Austro-Hungarian empire I have ever seen on film (actually, its the only recreation of the Austro-Hungarian empire I can recall seeing on film) and as such takes place in the twilight age of European empires and hereditary dynasties, where... more info	Customer Rating: 3.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information
