• Hamburger Hill | Blu Ray | (07/12/2009) from £7.99   |  Saving you £8.00 (100.13%)   |  RRP £15.99

  The men of Bravo Company are facing a battle that's all uphill... up Hamburger Hill.

It's a raw gritty and totally unrelenting dramatic depiction of one of the fiercest battles of America's bloodiest war. Dodge the gunfire. Get caught behind enemy lines. Go into battle beside the brave young men who fought and died. Feel their desperation and futility. This happened. Hamburger Hill - war at its worst men at their best.

• Midnight Cowboy | DVD | (01/02/2000) from £10.85   |  Saving you £2.14 (19.72%)   |  RRP £12.99

  The first, and only, X-rated film to win a best picture Academy Award, John Schlesinger's Midnight Cowboy seems a lot less daring today (and has been reclassified as an R), but remains a fascinating time capsule of late-1960s sexual decadence in mainstream American cinema. In a career-making performance, Jon Voight plays Joe Buck, a naive Texas dishwasher who goes to the big city (New York) to make his fortune as a sexual hustler. Although enthusiastic about selling himself to rich ladies for stud services, he quickly finds it hard to make a living and eventually crashes in a seedy dump with a crippled petty thief named Ratzo Rizzo (Dustin Hoffman, doing one of his more effective "stupid acting tricks," with a limp and a high-pitch rasp of a voice). Schlesinger's quick-cut, semi-psychedelic style has dated severely, as has his ruthlessly cynical approach to almost everybody but the lead characters. But at its heart the movie is a sad tale of friendship between a couple of losers lost in the big city, and with an ending no studio would approve today. It's a bit like an urban Of Mice and Men, but where both guys are Lenny. --Jim Emerson

• The Cedar Tree: Series 1 - Volume 2 | DVD | (03/06/2013) from £17.98   |  Saving you £14.00 (87.55%)   |  RRP £29.99

  Created by Upstairs Downstairs' Alfred Shaughnessy The Cedar Tree is a study of one fictional aristocratic family the Bournes of Larkfield Manor focusing particularly on daughters Elizabeth (21) Anne (18) and Victoria (16). Dependent on their parents for income and bound by the remnants of the previous century's code of social behaviour they represent a small backwater of Thirties life. The girls' great hope is to fi nd a suitable husband and their expectations are high; but who is to know that what awaits all women at the end of the 'devil's decade' is war? A huge success for ITV in the 1970s The Cedar Tree picked up the reigns for classy period drama from Upstairs Downstairs and is the precursor to today's highly popular costume dramas such as Cranford and Downton Abbey.

• Die Hard Quadrilogy - Die Hard/Die Hard 2/Die Hard With A Vengence/Die Hard 4.0 | DVD | (29/10/2007) from £12.39   |  Saving you £22.60 (182.41%)   |  RRP £34.99

  Now joined by a hit fourth instalment, the Die Hard Quadrilogy is, bluntly, an essential set for any self-respecting fan of action cinema. The gold, of course, is the original Die Hard, a flat-out five star classic pretty much without equal. Introducing Bruce Willis' John McClane as an ordinary guy in an extraordinary situation, it's littered with great lines, great characters, and genre-defining moments. Plus, in Alan Rickman, it has one of the finest cinematic villains of the past few decades. Die Hard 2: Die Harder inevitably dilutes matters, this time switching the action to Washington's Dulles International Airport. But with Willis and a good number of characters returning from the original, it's a fun--if at times brutal--ride, that scores highly in the entertainment stakes. Die Hard: With A Vengeance, the third film in the series, pretty much strips away the bulk of the supporting cast, and replaces them with the not-significant figure of Samuel L Jackson. It changes the dynamic of the film into a buddy-buddy movie, albeit a good one. And again, it's a ride that's hard not to enjoy, with Jeremy Irons giving good measure as McClane's chief foe. Finally, Die Hard 4.0 is a real surprise. Given the fact that it arrived over a decade after the third film, it finds Willis and relative newcomer Justin Long shouldering an entertaining, old fashioned action film, that papers over its occasional cracks by asking its lead actor to ramp things up a gear when necessary. And watching John McClane do what he does--even when any hint of reality is thrown out of the window near the end--is endlessly entertaining. So while none of the sequels have matched the peerless original, the Die Hard Quadrilogy nonetheless delivers one classic, and three very enjoyable action movies. And you can't argue with that kind of hit rate. Always, always bet on McClane... --Simon Brew

• The Power Game: The Complete Series | DVD | (23/03/2020) from £48.72   |  Saving you £N/A (N/A%)   |  RRP £N/A

  The Power Game - ATV's famous boardroom drama from the 1960s stars Patrick Wymark as John Wilder, the ruthless and power-hungry executive that everybody loves to hate. His adversarial relationship with his wife and colleagues in his fight for political power and one-upmanship set the template for many boardroom dramas to come. Wymark revelled in his role as the despicable Wilder, his strong and compelling characterisation encouraging equally high-calibre performances from co-stars Peter Barkworth, Clifford Evans, Barbara Murray, Jack Watling and Michael Jayston. Comprising all three complete series, this set will appeal to fans of high-quality drama and archive television. With both the second and third series not being seen since their original transmission, the majority of episodes have been transferred from film elements especially for this set.

• Escape From L.A. | DVD | (04/06/2001) from £5.99   |  Saving you £7.00 (116.86%)   |  RRP £12.99

  Fifteen years after John Carpenter squandered a great idea on a mediocre movie (Escape from New York), he does it again--this time on the Left Coast. Kurt Russell is back as the terminally cynical one-eyed action hero Snake Plissken who, this time, has been coerced into saving the world in Los Angeles. It's 2013 and L.A. is now an island maximum-security prison off the coast of California. Snake has 10 hours to find a doomsday weapon that's fallen into the hands of revolutionaries before he dies of a virus with which he's been injected. But the action is clumsy and unimaginative: lots of shootouts and very little suspense. Even the bad guys aren't particularly inventive; only Pam Grier, as a transsexual gang leader, strikes any sparks. Russell growls his way through the role but can only blame himself: He cowrote the script with Carpenter. --Marshall Fine
