So Undercover (2012)
Ray N
Private Investigator Miley Cyrus goes undercover in a college sorority to protect the daughter of a witness against the Mafia. So Undercover is lightweight but it is funny in places and avoids gross out humour during its 90 minutes.

Audrey: Timeless Collection (Blu-ray) (1954)
Ray N
The three Blu-ray disc set Audrey Timeless Collection from Paramount includes Sabrina (1954), Funny Face (1957) and Breakfast at Tiffany’s (1961. In this set we get a comedy, a musical and a bona fide classic of 60s cinema. The set is a bargain for fans of Hepburn or classic Hollywood cinema if you do not already own the standalone Blu-rays.

Celeste & Jesse Forever (Blu-ray) (2012)
John S
|
Can a couple who break-up after being together for years maintain a platonic relationship? Celeste & Jesse Forever attempts to answer this very question! This is not your standard Hollywood-type Romantic Comedy, so if you despise clichéd movies, you'll probably enjoy this film.

Breakfast at Tiffany's (Blu-ray) (1961)
Ray N
|
Breakfast at Tiffany’s, based upon a novella by Truman Capote, contains a timeless, iconic performance by Audrey Hepburn and the Oscar winning score by Henry Mancini including the haunting Moon River. The film looks great in HD and is still wonderful fifty years on. Breakfast at Tiffany’s is now released as part the three disc Blu-ray set Audrey Timeless Collection from Paramount that also includes Sabrina (1954) and Funny Face (1957).

Tai Chi Hero (Blu-ray 3D) (2012)
DanielB
What a bummer! The first film in this series was fun and had some great martial arts scenes plus some interesting visual ideas. This film leaves most of the good elements behind and results in a tedious watch.

Berberian Sound Studio (Blu-ray) (2012)
Ray N
|
It is 1976 and a nondescript English sound engineer travels to Italy where he finds that he has been hired to mix an Italian horror film. Berberian Sound Studio is a clever, intriguing and fascinating film, low-budget filmmaking at its most inventive and interesting; a stylish film with a wonderful sound design studded with dark humour and excellent performances.

Top Gear-Complete Series 19 (2013)
DanielB
|
Do all great shows get tired eventually? I think so and Top Gear is still fun but probably needs a shot of something new to reinvigorate it. The African special is one of the best adventure specials though and is included here.

Funny Face (Blu-ray) (1957)
Ray N
|
Funny Face is a musical that looks gorgeous; the film’s Technicolor colours are deep and vibrant, the set direction and costumes worn by Audrey Hepburn stunning but as a musical and a vehicle for Hepburn it lacks the sparkle it should. The Blu-ray of Funny Face is now released as part the three disc set Audrey Timeless Collection from Paramount that also includes Sabrina (1954) and Breakfast at Tiffany’s (1961).

Twilight Saga : Breaking Dawn Part 2, The (Blu-ray) (2012)
Trevor D
|
The box office conquering Twilight Saga comes to its end with Breaking Dawn Part 2. For true fans of the series the final chapter is much lamented whereas the anti-Twilight army will be relieved it’s over. Fans will already know how the story ends. The film is presented in an excellent Blu-ray with a tomb full of extra features.
