Sin City (Blu-Ray) £9.98

Sin City is a film noir based on the Frank Miller graphic novel series of the same name, primarily three of his works – "The Hard Goodbye" focuses on a hulking man who embarks on a brutal rampage in search of his one-time lover's killer, "The Big Fat Kill" is about a street war between a group of prostitutes and a series of mercenaries, and "That Yellow Bastard" focuses on an aging police officer who protects a young woman from a serial killer.

This high definition release of the movie looks and sounds brilliant, and comes with two different versions. The first is the theatrical cut seen in cinemas, whilst the second runs for around 20 minutes longer (which includes edited scenes and some that have never been seen before).

Amazon have Sin City, on Blu-Ray, available for £9.98 – for more information, click here.

Only Fools And Horses: The Complete Collection £59.98

After reading about some of the episodes of Only Fools And Horses being cut on DVD, I thought I'd try and find out some more information. Turns out that nearly all of the edits are down to not being able to get the music rights, but oddly there's been some dialogue cut as well – I have no idea why this is.

That being said, Only Fools And Horses: The Complete Collection is the most complete set that you can currently get. It not only contains every episode from all seven series', but all of the Specials as well.

District 13 Double Pack (Blu-Ray) £16.93

Luc Besson is probably best know for such films as Leon and The Fifth Element, but he's actually had a hand in making tons of French language movies – as is the case when he produced both District 13 and its sequel District 13: Ultimatum.

Inside the District 13 double pack, on Blu-Ray, you'll find both action films in glorious high definition. Considering Ultimatum was only released in cinemas a couple of weeks ago, it seems as though the turnaround to DVD is getting faster by the day!

Miami Vice: The Definitive Collection – The Complete Series £39.93

While the 2006 big-screen version starring Colin Farrell and Jamie Foxx as Crockett and Tubbs was average at best, the original Miami Vice television series is as excellent today as it was back in the 80s (except for the horrendous fashion, of course!).

Inside the Miami Vice: The Definitive Collection – The Complete Series boxset you'll find all 111 episodes ever made across a whopping 32 discs. Also included are some short featurettes looking back at the show and its effect on real-life Miami.

The Hut are selling this for £39.93 – click here for more details.

Al Pacino Collection £4.85

Al Pacino is perhaps more recognised for his hard-hitting roles in action films like Scarface and Heat, but let's not forget that he has also turned his hand to some "straight" movies as well – even winning an Academy Award for Scent Of A Woman.

Inside the Al Pacino Collection you'll find four of his greatest films, including the aforementioned Scarface and Scent Of A Woman. Sea Of Love and Carlito's Way round off this brilliant boxset.

The Jodie Foster Collection £9.99

Jodie Foster has had a very interesting career up to this point, with films in many different kinds of genre from family to horror. The recipient of two Academy Awards, she is probably best known for her portrayal of Clarice Starling in The Silence Of The Lambs.

The Jodie Foster Collection contains five of her best works, including the aforementioned The Silence Of The Lambs. Also to be found in this fie disc set are Foxes, Little Man Tate, Nell and Anna And The King.

24: Season Seven £29.98

24 is still very popular both here and in the States, but the sixth year seemed to be missing something which critics felt might mean the end of the show being near – fortunately the writer's strike of 2007-2008 gave producers extra time to turn out a very good seventh season.

Inside the 24: Season Seven boxset you'll find all 24 episodes, along with hours of bonus material. This includes audio commentaries on 12 installments, multiple featurettes on the making of the programme and a total of 14 deleted scenes.

27 Dresses, The Devil Wears Prada And In Her Shoes Triple Pack £4.89

If we are to believe everything that we see in films, women must be obsessed with clothes. Actually, if you take a wander down any high street in this country it's probably true – the number of fashion retailers is nothing short of ridiculous!

Anyway, this 27 Dresses, The Devil Wears Prada and In Her Shoes triple pack features three half-decent movies that are linked in absolutely no way at all – of these, The Devil Wears Prada is very much the best of the bunch.

Patlabor is an anime and manga franchise which takes place in the near future. Robots called "Labors" are employed in heavy construction work, and the Tokyo Metropolitan Police have their own fleet of Patlabors to combat crime and deal with incidents involving these robots.

Inside the Patlabor 1 And 2: Limited Collector's Edition Boxset you'll find both Patalabor: The Movie and Patalbor 2: The Movie. Also included is an archives booklet, which features 145 pages on the making of both films, plus a bonus DVD with additional "making of" material.
