Transformers: The Movie (1986) (Blu-Ray) £5.93


Transformers: The Movie (1986) is a feature-length animated film based on the television series of the same name. Taking place some 20 years after the end of the second season, this has a much darker tone which sees a handful of major characters meet their demise.

This high definition release looks and sounds as good as it ever has, although it’s certainly not the best Blu-Ray around. You won’t find any bonus material either, which seems like a bit of a missed opportunity.

Indiana Jones: The Complete Collection £17.97

Indiana Jones: The Complete Collection

Whilst there were more than a few critics and fans that disliked Indiana Jones And The Kingdom Of The Crystal Skull, I somehow feel that they were missing the point of the movie – it was supposed to be a throwback to a bygone age of cinema, and in that respect I think it’s not too bad (nowhere near the other three in the series though).

Inside the Indiana Jones: The Complete Collection boxset you’ll find all four films from the franchise – Raiders Of The Lost Ark, Indiana Jones And The Temple Of Doom, Indiana Jones And The Last Crusade, and the aforementioned Indiana Jones And The Kingdom Of The Crystal Skull. Each movie also comes with a smattering of bonus material, including some excellent documentaries.

Watchmen £8.97


After languishing in development hell for around 20 years, Watchmen finally made it to the big screen in 2009. Set in an alternate-history 1985, the film follows a group of former vigilantes as tensions heighten between the United States and the Soviet Union while an investigation of an apparent conspiracy against them uncovers something even more grandiose and sinister.

This single disc version of the movie, based on an equally fantastic comic book series of the same name, only comes with a featurette on how the film was made. However, if it’s just the movie you’re after then this is a most agreeable little package.
