I cannot tell a lie. I thought this series was not as good as UXB, but I am partial to Judy Geeson. I did expect the inaccuracy of the planes being flown, but not the pristine landing strips/meadows. I guess that I really missed the realism of the stressful situations that seemed to be somewhat missing here. I can only surmise that the writers were from another era with no oversight by older experienced professionals who might have given more insight into the acting roles. I am also a dog lover & thought that the part of the elimination of the mascot that wizzed on anyone other than his master, was a bit too much even in wartime. Oh well, you can't have everything. Even though I was displeased at some parts, I did enjoy the series overall as worth the bargain price paid.

4.Different for Girls starring: Steven Mackintosh, Rupert Graves, Miriam Margolyes, Saskia Reeves, Charlotte Coleman directed by: Richard Spence May 25, 1999
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $14.93
Let's get to the bottom of things. Rupert Graves is the only reason to watch this film. The movie is only slightly entertaining with Graves being the true reason. No disrespect to Mackintosh (I've seen him in other things and think he's a good actor) but he didn't do it for me in this. He wasn't convincing as a transexual let alone a woman. He didn't even look like a woman but like a man in make-up. For this movie to be more realistic they could have picked a more feminine-looking male lead or at least a man that can look good in a dress and make-up. Mackintosh, who resembled Glenn Close in the film, looked just like a man in drag instead of a transexual woman. No transexual woman would have left any doctor's office looking like this. Couldn't the film people have applied things to alter ... Read More

I JUST WATCHED "THE BRIDE OF FRANKENSTEIN" FOR THE FIRST TIME (73 YEARS AFTER ITS MAKING). WHILE MOVIE MAKING HAS OBVIOUSLY TRAVELED LIGHT YEARS FROM THE TECHNIQUES USED IS THIS FILM, IT IS STILL A TRUE CLASSIC IN HORROR FILMDOM. ASIDE FROM JUST A FEW OUT OF FOCUS SHOTS LEFT IN THE FILM, SUCH AS THE TOUCHING OF HANDS IN THE "REBUFFED" SCENE, THIS IS STILL A CREEPY AND RATHER SCARY FILM THAT IS TRULY TIMELESS. IT WOULD HAVE BEEN NICE TO SEE A LITTLE MORE OF THE BRIDE..BUT MAYBE THE BEST WAS TRULY SAVED FOR THE END THIS TIME. I COULDN'T HELP BUT FEEL SORRY FOR THE BIG FELLA AS HE TRIED AND TRIED TO BEFRIEND MANY HE CAME INTO CONTACT WITH...BUT WHAT WOULD YOU DO IF A 7 FOOT SQUARE HEADED MAN-CREATURE HAPPENED UPON YOU? THIS IS A GREAT FILM. I WOULD PAY TO SEE THIS MOVIE ON THE ... Read More

6.Revolver starring: Robert Urich, Dakin Matthews, Steven Williams, David Ryall, Assumpta Serna directed by: Gary Nelson October 28, 1992
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $7.75
The established screen persona of Robert Urich, as a tough but still nice guy, is utilized to advantage in this action film that offers some components uncommon for the genre: the lead character is paraplegic and the setting is Barcelona. Nick Sastre (Urich), an FBI operative of partly Catalan descent, has retired due to an incident of which he was a participant wherein a young boy was shot to death in New York City, but is lured back to handle an assignment requiring that he go to Barcelona, his cover being as a criminal broker in an attempt to prevent a Spanish drugs and arms dealer named Aldo Testi from expanding his business into the United States. While a guest of Testi at a Los Angeles night club, Sastre is suddenly shot and, as the round has lodged in his spine, he suffers lower body paralysis, but ... Read More

Disgusting movie that leaves nothing to the imagination. Sex scene after sex scene is all through this movie. It is degrading and gross. The only good thing about this movie was Tom's attidude outside of the bedroom. I can't recommend this movie to anyone.
