 As good as the first series!, 2009-09-01
This second series easily lives up to the first!
If you enjoyed the first, then buy this.
The Thorpe Park day is so funny. Individuals can
relate to alot of this I'm sure. That's what makes it
a first class series - how we can all identify!

Funniest series EVER, 2010-03-10
I have to say, the inbetweeners is one of the funniest series I have ever watched! So brutally honest with the way teenages think (especially boys). It doesn't hold back at all and every episode leaves me in stiches! Great comedy, original, funny and outrageous!
Fast delivery, great condition and definitely a must for anyone who loves a good laugh!

Ralph Bakshi
Ralph Bakshi's 1978 animated adaptation of The Lord of the Rings is a bold, colourful, ambitious failure. Severely truncated, this two-hour version tackles only about half the story, climaxing with the battle of Helm's Deep and leaving poor Frodo and Sam still stuck on the borders of Mordor with Gollum. Allegedly, the director ran out of money and was unable to complete the project. As far as the film does go, however, it is a generally successful attempt at rendering Tolkien's landscapes of the imagination. Bakshi's animation uses a blend of conventional drawing and rotoscoped (traced) animated movements from live-action footage. The latter is at least in part a money-saving device, but it does succeed in lending some depth and a sense of otherworldly menace to the Black Riders and hordes of Orcs: Frodo's encounter at the ford of Rivendell, for example, is one of the film's best scenes thanks to this mixture of animation techniques. Backdrops are detailed and well conceived, and all the main characters are strongly drawn. Among a good cast, John Hurt (Aragorn) and C3PO himself, Anthony Daniels (Legolas), provide sterling voice characterisation, while Peter Woodthorpe gives ...
An excellent animated film., 2010-03-02
Although the film is not perfect it still has a quality and a charm that makes it stand out from most other animated films, ever. Most people who have decided to review this film (and who hate it) have done so after they have seen Peter Jackson's attempt. You cannot compare the two. It would be sheer idiocy to do so. This is a fantastic peice of animation which at the time was very forward thinking and innovative. A must in my opinion.

Well worth watching., 2004-07-10
I am probably biased because I really like this sort of movie from the days when the scariest thing to see was an actor with blobby chunks of makeup on his/her face. I think computer graphics have taken some of the shock and intrigue out of films these days and you don't even need a storyline if you use enough of them. This is another from the stable of great old movies that had all the horror and suspense of todays movies (if not more) but none of the overdone explosions and superfluous sex scenes. The Cornish "accents" were entirely unrealistic but that's usually the case (fair enough, if they had used Cornish actors the wider market may not have understood what was being said) Just in case people don't realise, the Cornish aren't all mutated hillbillies either(my family are Cornish so I thought I'd better set that straight LOL). But I think the film warrants suspension of beleif. All in all a good movie if you like this sort of thing and worth watching even if you don't. P.S.

"...anyone familiar with Britain the scenes seemed to have been shot in Scotland. A minor quibble but..." I don't wish to appear to be pedantic but it said filmed in Cornwall and Pinewood studios in the credits so I'd say it was probably Cornwall not Scotland. The Cornish and Welsh coastlines can be quite similar to Scotland's because they all rose from the same backbone of rocky outcrop up the west coast of Britian.

Netherlands released, PAL/Region 2 DVD: LANGUAGES: English ( Dolby Digital 2.0 ), English ( Dolby Digital 5.1 ), Dutch ( Subtitles ), SPECIAL FEATURES: Alternative Footage, Interactive Menu, Scene Access, Trailer(s), SYNOPSIS: Miniseries, based on the novel by Rudy Wiebe, depicting the story of Plains Cree Chief Big Bear and his people in Canada in the 1880s and '90s, told from the point of view of the Cree. Canadian government officials seek to confine the Cree onto reserves as settlers encroach on the plains where the Cree have always hunted freely. Big Bear's determination not to sign away ancestral rights to the land brings starvation to his followers, tearing apart his community and his own family. After holding out for years, he finally signs the treaty so his people may eat. He himself refuses to be tied to a reserve as tensions mount between the Canadian authorities and Big Bear. After 10 years of resistance, his warriors reject Big Bear's leadership and join war chief Wandering Spirit and Big Bear's son, Little Bad Man, to launch a fatal confrontation with Canadian troops. Big Bear surrenders in order to negotiate with the government on behalf of his people and their f...
