Another series from Lew Grade's ITC stable, The Protectors attracted high ratings on both sides of the Atlantic when screened during 1971-3. Combining the high-tech ingenuity of Mission: Impossible with the glamour of The Champions, the basic premise of jet-setting special agents going where governments fear to tread is typical of its era. As Harry Rule, Robert Vaughn develops the thinking man of action persona he perfected in The Man from U.N.C.L.E, complemented by Nyree Dawn Porter's stylish Contessa di Contini. The underrated Tony Anholt makes the most of his Mediterranean good looks as Paul Buchet. Eight episodes are included here, all following a well-honed formula of intrigue and strategy, but with enough variety in scenario and setting--a range of European cities and resorts--to offset routine. Look out for a host of soon-to-be-familiar faces. There's also Tony Christie's full-throated rendition of the "Avenues and Alleyways" theme to round off each episode. On the DVD: The Protectors on disc comes in a full-screen format that reproduces excellently for its age (Lew Grade's productions always seem to last well). Each episode is divided into four chapter headings, with English subtitles available. With an informative run-down of how the series evolved and a gallery of captioned stills--some of which are curiously reproduced in black-and-white--taken with a healthy dose of nostalgia, entertainment is assured. --Richard Whitehouse

This imaginative comedy from director Barry Sonnenfeld (Get Shorty) is a lot of fun, largely on the strength of Will Smith's engaging performance as the rookie partner of a secret agent (Tommy Lee Jones) assigned to keep tabs on Earth-dwelling extra-terrestrials. There's lots of comedy to spare in this bright film, some of the funniest stuff found in the margins of the major action (a scene with Smith's character being trounced in the distance by a huge alien while Jones questions a witness is a riot.) The inventiveness never lets up, and the cast--including Vincent D'Onofrio doing frighteningly convincing work as an alien occupying a decaying human--hold up their end splendidly. --Tom Keogh, Amazon.com On the DVD: This Collector's Edition disc contains a "Visual Commentary" that features director Barry Sonenfeld and actor Tommy Lee Jones in an anecdotal conversation, but with the unique twist that they are displayed as silhouettes on your TV screen (imagine you're sitting in the back row of the cinema and they are up front) using a pointer to highlight particular events on screen. If you have a widescreen TV, the menu prompts you to switch to 4:3 mode to see this. There is also a "Visual Effects Scene Deconstruction" in which the tunnel scene and the Edgar Bug fight scene are dissected into their constituent parts; an in-depth documentary, "Metamorphosis of MIB", which charts the progress of the concept from comic book to screen; five "Extended and Alternate" scenes; trailers, including a teaser for MIB II; and Will Smith's "Men in Black" music video. --Mark Walker

To some they may just be a group of overgrown kids who never grew up, but to the skaters, BMX riders and stunt bikers who appear in the documentary Ultimate X their way of life is a calling. Bruce Hendricks's film of the 10th annual X games in Philadelphia not only goes some way to explaining the philosophy behind the lifestyle, it also features some of the most astonishing sporting footage committed to camera in recent years. During the course of the film's breakneck 30 minutes, the viewer will often find themselves repeating chapters just to make sure that they really have seen what they thought they saw--especially during the incredible stunts of the freestyle motor cross bikers. Yet Ultimate X is more than just a collection of flashy images, it makes an excellent attempt to give an insight into the scene through interviews with some of its major figures. While a couple fit the beach bum stereotype, the majority are lucid, articulate and obviously deeply skilled athletes. At the end of the day, however, what sticks in the mind about this remarkable film is the breathtaking combination of visual images, editing and crucially cool rock soundtrack--the sequence that ties the Foo Fighters' "Learn to Fly" with the Motor X Big Air competition alone is worthy of an Oscar. This is the best documentary of its kind since the acclaimed Hoop Dreams. On the DVD: Ultimate X comes in at a tidy half-hour, so the DVD fleshes out the feature with a range of extra footage. The interactive version of the movie offers the viewer a selection of icons that allow them entry into athlete profiles, a detailed look at their medal-winning runs, related features and tips on the various disciplines. As befits a film that places such store on the combination of music (ranging from Black Sabbath to Sum 41) and visuals, both elements are presented in pristine digital quality. --Phil Udell
