• The Great Northfield Minnesota Raid | DVD | (10/02/2014) from £5.99   |  Saving you £7.00 (116.86%)   |  RRP £12.99

  Based on the true story of the last failed bank robbery by the James and Younger brothers this film is notable for showing the unraveling heist from the outlaws' viewpoint. The Great Northfield Minnesota Raid was shot in a meticulous semi documentary style that brings to life the glorious last ride of the infamous band of outlaws. Late in the summer of 1876 Jesse James and Cole Younger were given amnesty by their home state of Missouri; after a long and prosperous career as robbers the dynamic duo were ironically proclaimed state heroes. Faced with the possibility of a quiet and peaceful future the notorious ruffians had no choice but to plan one final heist at the biggest bank west of the Mississippi in Northfield Minnesota. The heist was a grand scheme planned with great intellectual prowess by Younger the introverted and soft-spoken leader of the group who was often overshadowed by the flashy and daredevil killer Jesse James. Together the two men executed what they thought would be a foolproof plan - until the citizens of Northfield proved them wrong.

• Nowhere Special | Blu Ray | (04/10/2021) from £9.99   |  Saving you £N/A (N/A%)   |  RRP £N/A

  James Norton and Daniel Lamont are superb in this heartfelt drama about a single father determined to do the best by his son before he dies. John (Norton), a 35-year-old window cleaner, lives with his three-year-old son Michael. He was recently diagnosed with terminal cancer and has decided that he will find the best family to take Michael in after his death. Against the advice of the adoption agency he's working with, John cannot face telling his son the truth, taking him on visits to prospective families under the guise of visiting new friends. But as his condition starts to show, he begins to ponder what his legacy should be for his son should Michael start life anew or should John leave him with the tools that would allow him, later in life, to know the father he had. As with his previous feature Still Life , writer-director Uberto Pasolini draws from a well of understatement. More a snapshot of two lives than covering the full arc of John's journey, the film succeeds in being deeply affecting without resorting to sentimentality. Norton and Lamont help immeasurably their affection for each other on screen convincing in every way. Extras Somewhere Special - The Making of Nowhere Special

  Bridget Jones's Diary Featuring a blowzy, winningly inept size-12 heroine, Bridget Jones's Diary is a fetching adaptation of Helen Fielding's runaway bestseller, grittier than Ally McBeal but sweeter than Sex and the City. The normally sylphlike Renée Zellweger (Nurse Betty, Me, Myself and Irene) wolfed pasta to gain poundage to play "singleton" Bridget, a London-based publicist who divides her free time between binge eating in front of the TV, downing Chardonnay with her friends, and updating the diary in which she records her negligible weight fluctuations and romantic misadventures of the year. Things start off badly at Christmas when her mother tries to set her up with seemingly standoffish lawyer Mark Darcy (Colin Firth), whom Bridget accidentally overhears dissing her. Instead she embarks on a disastrous liaison with her raffish boss, Daniel Cleaver (Hugh Grant, infinitely more likeable when he's playing a baddie instead of his patented tongue-tied fops). Eventually, Bridget comes to wonder if she's let her pride prejudice her against the surprisingly attractive Mr. Darcy. If the plot sounds familiar, that's because Fielding's novel was itself a retelling of Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice, whose romantic male lead is also named Mr. Darcy. An extra ironic poke in the ribs is added by the casting of Firth, who played Austen's haughty hero in the acclaimed BBC adaptation of Austen's novel. First-time director Sharon Maguire directs with confident comic zest, while Zellweger twinkles charmingly, fearlessly baring her cellulite and pulling off a spot-on English accent. Like Four Weddings and a Funeral and Notting Hill (both of which were written by this film's coscreenwriter, Richard Curtis), Bridget Jones's stock-in-trade is a very English self-deprecating sense of humour, a mild suspicion of Americans (especially if they're thin and successful), and a subtly expressed analysis of thirtysomething fears about growing up and becoming a "smug married." The whole is, as Bridget would say, v. good. --Leslie Felperin Bridget Jones 2: The Edge Of Reason Although it's been three years since we last saw Bridget (Renée Zellweger), only a few weeks have passed in her world. She is, as you'll remember, no longer a "singleton," having snagged stuffy but gallant Mark Darcy (Colin Firth) at the end of the 2001 film. Now she's fallen deeply in love and out of her neurotic mind with paranoia: Is Mark cheating on her with that slim, bright young thing from the law office? Will the reappearance of dashing cad Daniel Cleaver (Hugh Grant) further spell the end of her self-confidence when they're shoved off to Thailand together for a TV travel story? If such questions also seem pressing to you, this sequel will be fairly painless, but you shouldn't expect anything fresh. Director Beeban Kidron and her screenwriters--all four of them!--are content to sink matters into slapstick, with chunky Zellweger (who's unflatteringly photographed) the literal butt of all jokes. Though the star still has her charms, and some of Bridget's social gaffes are amusing, the film is mired in low comedy--a sequence in a Thai women's prison is more offensive than outrageous--with only Grant's rakish mischief to pull it out of the swamp. --Steve Wiecking
