  Can't stop the signal...Beloved television cult director Joss Whedon (Buffy The Vampire Slayer, Angel) makes a spectacular first foray onto the big screen with Serenity, the cinematic adaptation of his wildly popular but short-lived sci-fi series, Firefly. A mix of space western, comedy, and drama, Serenity follows captain Malcolm Mal Reynolds (Nathan Fillion) and his ragtag crew as they trade their way around the edges of civilized society. Of particular interest are two passengers they take on, Simon and River Tam (Sean Maher and Summer Glau), a brother and his telepathic sister on the run from the corrupt governing Alliance. As notorious former members of the anti-Alliance opposition, Mal and his crew make it difficult for Simon and River to stay hidden. Everything goes completely awry when a government assassin is sent to retrieve River. As Mal is forced to choose between his close-knit crew and the brother and sister newcomers, it becomes apparent that River harbors both a dangerous secret and astounding fighting powers, and Mal decides that discovering the truth about what she knows might just be worth his time.Many of the film's action sequences revolve around Summer Glau's martial arts skills in her portrayal of River. Glau prepared for her role with Hong Kong stuntwoman Ming Lu, as well as stunt coordinators Chad Stahelski and Hiro Koda, and as a result performed nearly all the stuntwork herself. In addition to the stellar stunts, realistic graphics, and an often haunting score, the film's actors display a rare chemistry that brings viewers both into their lives and into a possible version of humanity's future.

• New Dragon Gate Inn | DVD | (31/07/2000) from £10.96   |  Saving you £9.03 (82.39%)   |  RRP £19.99

  New Dragon Gate Inn is the DVD title of the 1992 swordplay adventure Dragon Inn, producer Tsui Hark's follow-up to Once Upon a Time in China and Swordsman 2 (both 1991). In the wake of the huge success of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon it is a film ripe for rediscovery. A pair of warriors (Brigitte Lin and Tony Leung), who only admit their love when it is too late, have to rescue two children from the clutches of a corrupt warlord. Fleeing through the vast, highly pictorial desert, they seek shelter in the isolated Dragon Inn run by the man-eating Maggie Cheung (traveller's tip, don't try the "mixed meat"). The scene is set for intrigue, romance and exhilarating wirework, as our heroes wait for the enemy to arrive in what is essentially the classic High Noon scenario. The build-up isn't always coherent, though that may have something to do with the subtitles, which are unnecessarily crude. Despite this the production values and high-flying fights are first-rate and the two actresses make the film, particularly the devilishly sexy Maggie Cheung. The final showdown in a desert storm is breathtaking.On the DVD: In the cinemas this was an absolutely gorgeous 2.35:1 widescreen film, which here has been reformatted to 16:9 TV ratio, sacrificing important visual information at either side and significantly damaging the stunning cinematography. Enough survives to indicate just how beautiful the complete images are, and the anamorphically enhanced 1.77:1 transfer is sharp and clean on exterior shots, though some of the dimly lit interiors display considerable grain. Although only mono the sound is full and free from distortion, providing a good showcase for the atmospheric score. The film can be watched with the original Mandarin soundtrack and English subtitles, or dubbed. Included is an interview with Donnie Yen and detailed text biographies of the two female stars. The music promo is Hong Kong Legends' own trailer, included together with five further trailers for other releases. The original theatrical trailer is also present, and no matter what screen setting it is played at, everything looks vertically compressed. However, change the DVD player setting from widescreen to 4:3 letterbox and the trailer plays in the correct 2.35:1 proportions, confirming how the film was really shot. Though the DVD packaging bills this edition of Dragon Inn as the full-length original version though there is no explanation of what footage has been restored from previous releases. --Gary S.

• Black Mama, White Mama Blu-Ray | Blu Ray | (04/04/2016) from £17.98   |  Saving you £4.00 (25.02%)   |  RRP £19.99

  CHICKS IN CHAINS ON THE LAM FROM A PRISON HELL! Before her iconic turn in Coffy, Pam Grier starred alongside Margaret Markov in a grindhouse spin on Stanley Kramer's The Defiant Ones, fusing the Women in Prison film with the emerging Blaxploitation movement for a riotous romp of bullets, babes and blood! Lee (Grier), a tough prostitute and Karen (Markov), a revolutionary, are admitted to a tough women's prison where almost immediately (after some playful showering that prefigures Porky's) they clash. Packed off to a maximum security prison, their transport is ambushed by Karen's guerrilla friends and the two escape into the Filipino jungle. Chained together and with differing escape plans their clash intensifies as Lee wants to retrieve a stash of stolen cash to get her off the island and Karen wants to re-join her revolutionary group. Escape isn't easy as they come up against a series of obstacles including a corrupt cop, a bounty hunter, a sadistic Drug Lord and guerrillas who threaten to turn everything upside down. Chock full of girl fights, gun battles, nudity and humour, Black Mama White Mama, which was also known as Women in Chains and Hot, Hard and Mean, lives up to all its titles as well as featuring a brilliant Sid Haig (Spider Baby, House of 1000 Corpses) as a cowboy bounty hunter and Lynn Borden (Frogs, Dirty Mary Crazy Larry) as a lesbian guard from a script co-written by Jonathan Demme (Caged Heat) and a score sampled by Quentin Tarantino for Kill Bill.

• The War | DVD | (14/04/2003) from £N/A   |  Saving you £N/A (N/A%)   |  RRP £5.99

  Kevin Costner is the big name in The War, but the film belongs squarely to Elijah Wood, who plays his son. The film deals with the children of a Vietnam veteran in 1970 Mississippi; as their dad (Costner) tries to cope with post-traumatic stress disorder after serving in the war, the kids build a mammoth tree house in the woods--then must defend it against the local white-trash bullies. The film includes a particularly harrowing contest involving a swim across the reservoir of a decrepit water tower; still, director Jon Avnet can't avoid a certain "can't we all just get along" didactic message. That doesn't put a damper on the youthfully natural quality of the child actors, and Costner is actually quite winning as a sensitive, troubled soul. --Marshall Fine, Amazon.com

• Fritz Lang Box Set | DVD | (23/04/2007) from £74.90   |  Saving you £-24.91 (N/A%)   |  RRP £49.99

  Hailed as one of the greatest directors of silent films and after the coming of sound Fritz Lang was one of the most influential and innovative artists of the twentieth century and in the history of cinema. Released to mark the 80th Anniversary of the epic Metropolis this Box Set contains five of the filmmaker's most legendary works in their recently restored forms spread across eight discs and supplemented with a host of extras. The two-part film Dr. Mabuse the Gambler is one of the most sensational crime thrillers ever filmed and mirrors German society of the 1920s in all its crime-ridden decadence. Its sinister theme is dominated by terror as the power-crazed Mabuse (Rudolf Klein-Rogge) masterminds the worlds most dangerous gang of counterfeiters thieves and murderers wielding hypnotic powers with an iron fist to obtain total obedience to his will. Inspired by the towering Manhattan skyline Metropolis is a science fiction classic. Sixteen months in the making with a cast of over thirty seven thousand the film cost over two million dollars at 1920s prices. Set in the year 2026 a mammoth city is ruled by the super efficient industrialist Joh Fredersen (Alfred Abel). On the surface the city appears to be a utopian dream with wealthy inhabitants living in palatial apartments set in colossal glass and concrete spires but underground it's a different story. Armies of slaves work gruelling hours to maintain the luxurious lifestyles of their masters. The tense balance of these two societies is soon realized when the workers revolt and destroy everything in sight. Fritz Lang's penultimate silent film Spione is a flawlessly constructed labyrinthine spy thriller. An international spy ring headed by Haghi (Rudolf Klein-Rogge) uses technology threats and murder to obtain government secrets. As master spy president of a bank and music hall clown Haghi leads several lives using instruments of modern technology to spearhead a mad rush for secrets - secrets that assert his power over others. Like a brand the letter 'M' has made its mark on film history as one of the most chilling serial killer films ever produced; its disturbing theme having lost none of its power or impact. Sinister dark and foreboding M tells the story of Hans Beckert (Peter Lorre) as the globe-eyed child murderer hunted by both the law and the underworld of Berlin. Fritz Lang resuscitated the evil genius Dr Mabuse ten years after making Dr Mabuse the Gambler in the sequel The Testament of Dr Mabuse. The sequel picks up the story with Mabuse's capture madness and incarceration. Even though he has been locked away in an asylum for ten years his crime organisation is still perpetrating an insane orgy of wanton destruction threats shoot-outs thefts explosions bombings burnings and floods. Rudolf Klein-Rogge reprises his role as Dr Mabuse. Banned by the Nazis The Testament of Dr Mabuse is one of Fritz Lang's most inventive crime thrillers and one of cinema's most accomplished early talkies.
