• The Michael Moore Collection | DVD | (07/01/2008) from £24.99   |  Saving you £5.00 (20.01%)   |  RRP £29.99

  Bowling For Columbine: Michael Moore - Thorn in the side of corporate America scourge of the political hypocrisy and all-round ass-kicker of those that need a boot in the behind... With his trademark charm and biting wit Michael Moore's documentary sets off on a rollicking journey to the heart of America hoping to discover why the American pursuit of happiness is so riddled with massive amounts of violence and asks ""Are we a nation of gun nuts.... or are we just nuts?"" Fahrenheit 9/11: Already the highest grossing documentary of all time in America (also breaking records in Europe and the UK) and winner of the prestigious Palme D'Or at the Cannes Film Festival in 2004 Fahrenheit 9/11 is the powerful new film from Oscar-winning director Michael Moore. Following the huge critical and commercial success of Bowling For Columbine Moore uses his characteristically deft humour and uniquely persistent style to launch an unflinching inquiry into the Bush administration's foreign policy. Fahrenheit 9/11 is by turns determinedly truthful scathingly funny intensely thought-provoking and thoroughly entertaining. Combining rare footage expert testimony and his one-of-a-kind dogged hunt for answers to tough questions the film takes on the burning issues facing America today. Michael Moore turns a sceptical lens on President George W. Bush and his inner circle who ignored the Saudi connection to 9/11 and instead rushed headlong into war against Iraq... Sicko: Sicko is the new documentary film by director Michael Moore. It investigates the United States health care system with a focus on for-profit health insurance and the pharmaceutical industry. The film compares the U.S. health care system with that of Canada's single-payer system and other universal health care systems including those in France the United Kingdom and Cuba. The film has been criticized for not discussing the drawbacks of universal health care in these countries.

• Amour | DVD | (18/03/2013) from £8.95   |  Saving you £7.04 (78.66%)   |  RRP £15.99

  Focusing on the lives of an elderly couple and the strain their relationship undergoes after one of them suffers a mild stroke, Amour is one of the most powerfully moving, emotionally devastating pieces of cinema ever made.

• Hudson Hawk | DVD | (01/10/1999) from £12.95   |  Saving you £-6.96 (-116.20%)   |  RRP £5.99

  Bruce Willis's awful, 1991 vanity piece is an abuse of audience goodwill and a waste of a good cast and director (Michael Lehmann of Heathers). The story of Hudson Hawk, cowritten by Willis, concerns a cat burglar pressured into stealing precious art, including some from the Vatican. But the script is just a convenience upon which Willis piles his vaguely boorish brand of hip irony, assuming his audience will stay with him every step of the way. Certain, self-congratulatory scenes induce cringing--Willis and Danny Aiello, for instance, sing "Side by Side" (to brassy accompaniment on the soundtrack) every time they're working a job--but the overall effect is more irritating and baffling. Keep a good thought for Willis (an underrated actor better than the summer junk we usually see him in) by checking out his superior work in Pulp Fiction and his small but memorable role in Billy Bathgate. --Tom Keogh

• The Breaking Point (1950) (Criterion Collection) UK Only | Blu Ray | (15/08/2022) from £15.19   |  Saving you £N/A (N/A%)   |  RRP £N/A

  MICHAEL CURTIZ (Mildred Pierce) brings a master skipper's hand to the helm of this thriller, Hollywood's second crack at Ernest Hemingway's To Have and Have Not. JOHN GARFIELD (The Postman Always Rings Twice) stars as Harry Morgan, an honest charter-boat captain who, facing hard times, takes on dangerous cargo to save his boat, support his family, and preserve his dignity. Left in the lurch by a freeloading passenger, Harry starts to entertain the criminal propositions of a sleazy lawyer (Harvey's WALLACE FORD), as well as the playful comeons of a cheeky blonde (A Face in the Crowd's PATRICIA NEAL), making a series of compromises that stretch his moralityand his marriagefarther than he'll admit. Hewing closer to Hemingway's novel than Howard Hawks's Bogart-Bacall vehicle, The Breaking Point charts a course through daylight noir and working-class tragedy, guided by Curtiz's effortless visual fluency and a stoic, career-capping performance from Garfield. Product Features New 2K digital restoration, with uncompressed monaural soundtrack on the Blu-ray New interview with biographer and film historian Alan K.

• Brass Eye | DVD | (06/05/2002) from £11.93   |  Saving you £8.06 (67.56%)   |  RRP £19.99

  Chris Morris' Brass Eye is a brilliantly funny spoof on current affairs media that carries on where his previous The Day Today left off. The show ran for one single, contentious series in 1997, to be followed by an even more controversial one-off in 2001. While these episodes might cause offence to those not versed in Morris' satirical methods, and while one occasionally suspects his work is informed by a dark seam of malice and loathing rather than a desire to educate, Brass Eye remains vital satire, magnificently hilarious and, in its own way, fiercely moral viewing. Brass Eye satirises a media far too interested in generating dramatic heat and urgency for its own sake than in shedding light on serious issues. Morris mimics perfectly the house style of programmes such as Newsnight and Crimewatch, with their spurious props and love of gimmickry. Meanwhile his presenter--an uncanny composite of Jeremy Paxman, Michael Buerk and Richard Madeley among others--delivers absurd items about man-fighting weasels in the East End and Lear-esque lines such as "the twisted brain wrong of a one-off man mental" with preposterously solemn authority. Much as the media itself is wont to do, each programme works itself up into a ridiculous fever of moral panic. Most telling is the "drugs" episode, in which, as ever, real-life celebrities, including Jimmy Greaves and Sir Bernard Ingham, are persuaded to lend their name to a campaign against a new drug from Eastern Europe entitled Cake. The satirist's aim here isn't to trivialise concern about drugs but to point up the media's lack of attention to content. A response to the ill-conceived News of the World witch-hunt, in the wake of the Sarah Payne affair, the 2001 "paedophilia" special was the most supremely controversial of the series. It followed the usual formula--duping celebs such as Phil Collins into endorsing a campaign entitled "Nonce Sense", urging parents to send their children to football stadiums for the night for their own safety and mooting the possibility of "roboplegic" paedophiles--and prompted the sort of hysterical and predictable Pavlovian response from the media that Brass Eye lampoons so tellingly. On the DVD: Brass Eye on DVD includes brief outtakes, such as "David Jatt" interviewing celebrities about breeding hippos for domestic purposes, an hilarious exchange with Jeffrey Archer's PA ("He's a very wicked little man") as well as trailers for the paedophilia special.--David Stubbs

• The Nightcomers | DVD | (02/03/2015) from £10.91   |  Saving you £-0.92 (N/A%)   |  RRP £9.99

  Marlon Brando's intense performance dominates this atmospheric sexually charged feature from a golden age of British horror directed by Michael Winner and also starring Stephanie Beacham in her first major film role. Visually stunning in a High Definition transfer from the original film elements The Nightcomers sketches a prequel to Henry James' classic Gothic novella The Turn of the Screw with Brando in typically compelling form as the servant whose disturbing magnetic presence exerts a corrupting hold over the occupants of a country estate. Following the death of their parents Flora and Miles are left in the care of repressed governess Miss Jessel and housekeeper Mrs Grose. But it is Peter Quint the malevolent Irish servant who truly rules the household; Miss Jessel equally repulsed and fascinated by Quint is drawn into a secret sado-masochistic affair with him while Flora and Miles are increasingly in his thrall...

• Bad Boys 2 | DVD | (14/02/2011) from £5.43   |  Saving you £0.56 (10.31%)   |  RRP £5.99

  Bad Boys II fulfils every audience expectation and then some: no-one goes to a movie directed by Michael Bay for delicacy and grace; you go because Bay (Armageddon, The Rock) knows how to make your bones rattle during a high-speed chase when a car flips over, spins through the air and smacks another car with a visceral crunch. Will Smith and Martin Lawrence may be mere puppets amid all this burning rubber and shrieking metal, but they actually provide a human core to the endless cascade of car wrecks and gunfights. Their easy rapport makes their personal problems--a running joke is Lawrence's attempts at anger management--as engaging as the sheer visual hullabaloo of bullets and explosions. The plot is recycled nonsense about drug lords and dead bodies being used to smuggle drugs, but the orchestration of violence is symphonic. If that's your thing, then this is for you. --Bret Fetzer
