2007 Movie Review

We very rarely go to the cinema, in fact the last time was to see "Happy Feet" when it first came out and that was part of our wedding anniversary weekend break to Bath last year.

I have a decent home cinema system and prefer watching movies in the comfort of our own home and avoid the queues for the drinks/sweets/ice cream!
Over the last couple of years I have built up a collection of about 50 DVD's and when it comes to buying them I tend to look for the bargain buys and movies that I know I will watch more than once. The latter means I will get good value for my money. Likewise with a wish list for Christmas/Birthday, the list will only be of movies I will watch more than once.
Any movies that fall outside these criteria I will hire from the local library at a cheaper rate and for longer period ie: a week, than it would cost from a dedicated movie hire store.

If you looked at my collection you will see a wide range of genre. This years bargain buys include:

Dejavu - Denzel Washington

The Pursuit of Happyness - Will Smith

Premonition - Sandra Bullock

Blood Diamond - Leonardo DiCaprio

The Interpreter - Nicole Kidman/Sean Penn

Babel - Brad Pitt/Cate Blanchett

The Constant Gardener - Ralph Fiennes/Rachel Weisz

X-Men, The Last Stand - Hugh Jackman/Halle Berry

Fantastic4 - Ioan Gruffudd

Happy Feet

Narnia
