Final Approach (2007) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)"People here are happy to be separate from a corrupt American government." So says the chief bad guy on his walkie talkie, as convincingly as if he were griping about overcooked spaghetti in a cheap restaurant. "You have some seriously wounded people there," intones the good military guy, in a sleepy monotone. "Yeah? So send in a medic," snarls the baddie.
Way beyond unconvincing, descending into a total grade Z snoozefest. If you can sit through this drivel without thinking that you've got something else you'd really like to do, then you might have fallen asleep. For desparate nothing-else-to-do viewing only.

The action thriller miniseries event of the year, Final Approach follows FBI hostage rescue specialist Jack Bender aboard a domestic flight that has been hijacked by a radical organization called the People's Separatist Movement. On ground, Jack's ex-wife, an FAA employee, discovers that the terrorists motives are tied to visions of nuclear grandeur, and there's only way to stop them--by blowing the airliner out of the sky. Featuring an star-studded cast including Dean Cain, William Forsythe, Lea Thompson, Anthony Michael Hall, and Ernie Hudson, hold on and buckle your seat belt for Final Approach!

Last of the Summer Wine: Vintage 1977 (2008) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Once again we get another "series" of antics from our favorite boys from Yorkshire.
This time we get series 4 which appears to indicate Warner/BBC has gotten the message that we want all the series released in order. Series 4 has 8 episodes, 6 of which aired in 1977 and 2 in 1978.
Here is the episode list along with the original air date:
Episode 1: Ferret Come Home - 9 November 1977
Episode 2: Getting on Sydney's Wire - 16 November 1977
Episode 3: Jubilee - 23 November 1977
Episode 4: Flower Power Cut - 30 November 1977
Episode 5: Who Made a Bit of Splash in Wales, Then? - 7 December 1977
Episode 6: Greenfingers - 14 December 1977
Episode 7: A Merry Heatwave - 1 January 1978
Episode 8: The Bandit from Stoke-On-Trent - 4 January 1978
The sole reported "Special Feature" will be:
A rare 1977 interview with show Creator/Writer Roy Clarke.
Unfortunately, this series does *not* include the episode "Small Tune on a Penny Wassail" which aired on 26 December 1978. This is a "Christmas Special" which are not typically considered part of a series by the BBC. Hopefully we'll see this episode on a "Christmas Specials" release.
The picturesque Pennine village of Holmfirth in the Yorkshire Dales is the setting for the antics of our aging delinquents and their oddball friends and fellow townspeople. Miles and miles of unspoilt moorland, and a breath-taking backdrop to the adventures of Compo, Clegg, Foggy.
As I've mentioned before, if you've not seen any of the episodes before don't be suprised if you are lukewarm to the program upon first viewing. This is a show that grows on you with each episode.
Now that Warner/BBC has blessed us with the next series I have but one request. Let's get on with it! With 6 months between series it will take another 12 years to get it all released! I, for one, do not wish to wait that long!
OK... I have 2 requests. The 2nd is: Stop pricing these short 6-10 episode series the same as series containing 24-32 episodes. This gross overpricing is typical of almost *all* BBC releases.
