Ed reviewed 'Bulworth' as a great movie with a great cast - worth full price & Dann followed, saying that it had either 'loved it' or hated it' responses when first released
Chris reviewed 'The Woman in Black' movie as 'Harry Potter is in a Hammer film' - & Bradford recommmended the movie - then Chris reviewed Lynda as worth full price & says he bought a director's set of the films of Spike Jonez & they are worth full price
Mo reviewed 'Nightmare Alley' as Tyrone Powers took a chance & it was wonderful
Dann reviewed the Jeff Wayne musical version of 'War of the Worlds' as it's incredibly great - check stagevu.com
Ken reviewed the Retrodome's 'Becoming Brittany' as heavy on the snark and that local talent created it
Andy reviewed Eurovision slection 'so you don't have to' & that watching the Norway contests wasn't all that bad & it's still worth stealing - even if the download took 4 hours
