A deft balance between special effects, comedy, and family dynamics made Honey I Shrunk the Kids a hit for Disney and spawned both a string of video sequels and a subsequent TV series. Moranis is endearing as the bumbling inventor/father of the Szalinski family. He inadvertently shrinks his own children then throws them out with the trash. They, along with the neighbour's kids, must journey back across their own backyard, now an enormous, dangerous distance, to get back to the right height. Much is done with the perils of the lawn, from a wild deluge from the sprinklers to a nasty encounter with the lawnmower and numerous encounters with gigantic insects. A generally kid-friendly, inventive (no pun intended), and entertaining outing. --Keith Simanton

Not Going Out- The Christmas Specials comprises a triple-bill of Christmas episodes from the hit Royal Television Society and Rose d'Or award winning BBC sitcom.
Starring Lee Mack, this real-time sitcom follows the exploits of a loser called Stuart as he struggles through the worst half hour of his life. Until the next episode. Divorced couple Stuart (Lee Mack) and Kate (Samantha Spiro) live on opposite sides of the same street. Stuart just wants to keep the peace and to keep his new girlfriend (Ellie White). But his extended family means he's forced to contend with his ex-wife's annoying new husband (Patrick Baladi), his own promiscuous dad (Clive Russell), an extortionist brother (Neil Fitzmaurice), a rebellious daughter (Sarah Hoare), and very unpredictable next-door neighbours (Geoff McGivern, Cecilia Noble). Laugh-out-loud farcical stakes combine with a naturalistic grit and pace to make Semi-Detached feel unlike any other sitcom.
Written by and starring Lee Mack (the British Comedy Award and BAFTA winning comedian) series seven of this hit sitcom continues to follow the hilariously ill-thought-out plans and mishaps of Lee as he desperately tries to impress long suffering landlady and object of his affection Lucy (Sally Bretton). As ever uber-ditzy friend Daisy (Katy Wix) is on hand to offer her usually unsolicited and always completely unique take on events while Lee’s dad (Bobby Ball) and Lucy’s parents only ever seem to result in him further tying himself in ever-more-complicated knots. This series also introduces new neighbours Toby (Hugh Dennis) and Anna (Abigail Cruttenden) a well-heeled couple who soon experience that when sharing a building with Lee and Lucy things are anything but straightforward. The will-they-won’t-they tension between Lee and Sally reaches unseen new heights in an epic series finale that sees Lucy and Lee in previously uncharted emotional water. Will they or wont they… the time has come to finally find out. Special Features: Exclusive behind The Scenes Feature – A Day In The Life Of Not Going Out
Eureka Entertainment to re-issue BUSTER KEATON: 3 FILMS, a collection of essential films from one of the greats of cinema operating at the height of his powers, taken from stunning 4K restorations, as part of The Masters of Cinema Series in a 3-disc Blu-ray set from 12 August 2019. Between 1920 and 1929, Buster Keaton created a peerless run of feature films that established him as arguably the greatest actor-director in the history of the moviesĀ. Collected here are three key films from that era; Sherlock Jr., The General and Steamboat Bill, Jr. Together they represent a true master at his peak, and The Masters of Cinema Series is proud to present all three films from stunning 4K restorations. Sherlock Jr. (1924) A film projectionist (and amateur detective) offers to solve the case of a missing watch, but is instead framed for the crime himself. Desperate to clear his name, the projectionist dreams of being the great Sherlock Jr., and in one of cinemas most iconic sequences, literally steps into the screen to bring his fantasies to life. The General (1926) When union spies steal his locomotive (along with his girlfriend), a plucky railway engineer pursues them doggedly across enemy lines. Containing one of the most memorable chase sequences in the history of filmmaking, The General is widely considered to be Keaton's masterpiece. Steamboat Bill, Jr. (1928) A steamboat captain receives a telegram informing him that his son who he has not seen for many years will be coming to visit. Eagerly expecting a strapping young lad who will help him compete with his arch-rival, he is disappointed with the effete progeny that instead shows up. Best remembered for its climactic cyclone sequence in which Keaton performs a number of death-defying stunts whilst an entire town is destroyed around him, Steamboat Bill, Jr. was Buster Keaton's last independent silent comedy and also one of his finest. Features: 1080p presentations of all three films from stunning 4K restorations Audio commentary on Sherlock Jr. by film historian David Kalat Three video interviews with film scholar Peter Kramer discussing Sherlock Jr., The General and Steamboat Bill, Jr Buster Keaton: The Genius Destroyed by Hollywood (52 mins) - A documentary on Keaton and his struggles working within the Hollywood studio system Buster Keaton on Wagon Train (58 mins) an audio recording of a then 63 year old Buster Keaton in conversation with television writer Bill Cox Sherlock Jr. Original music by Timothy Brock Sherlock Jr. Tour of Filming Locations featurette Sherlock Jr. Movie Magic & Mysteries featurette The General - Original score composed and conducted by Carl Davis The General Tour of Filming Locations featurette The General Video Tour featurette The General Home Movie Footage The General Introduction by Orson Welles The General Introduction by Gloria Swanson Steamboat Bill, Jr. - Original score composed and conducted by Carl Davis Steamboat Bill, Jr. A video essay on the making of the film A Collector's Booklet featuring writing on the films alongside rare archival imagery supplied by friends of the Keaton family
