Island, The

medium_island.jpg

Lincoln Six-Echo (McGregor) and Jordan Two-Delta (Johansson) are among hundreds of residents of a contained facility in the mid 21st Century. Everything about their lives is monitored and the only way out is to be chosen to go to The Island, reported to be the last uncontaminated spot in the world following an ecological disaster, which claimed the lives of everyone on the planet apart from them.

Lincoln who increasingly restless about the restraints and plagued by recurring, unexplained nightmares is aware that something is not quite as it seems but he is not prepared for what he discovers. His growing curiosity leads to the terrible discovery that everything about his existence is a lie, that The Island is a cruel hoax…and that he, Jordan and everyone they know are actually more valuable dead than alive. With time running out, Lincoln and Jordan make a daring escape to the outside world they've never known while the forces of the institute relentlessly hunt them down.

Dukes Of Hazzard

Cousins Bo (Seann William Scott) and Luke (Johnny Knoxville) Duke, with the assistance of their extremely sexy cousin Daisy (Jessica Simpson) and Uncle Jesse (Willie Nelson) must save the Duke family farm and the whole town from destruction by the town's corrupt and evil commissioner Boss Hogg (Burt Reynolds).

Their efforts constantly land the "Duke Boys" eluding authorities in "The General Lee", the boys' orange 1969 Dodge Charger. Their quick thinking and rocket of a car always keep them one step ahead of the dimwitted antics of the small southern town's Sheriff Roscoe P. Coltrane (M.C. Gainey) and his band of goons.

Max And Paddy - Power Of Two

medium_maxpaddy.jpgHot on the heels of the Channel 4 hit Max & Paddy’s Road to Nowhere comes a specially created and never seen before Peter Kay comedy fitness title premiering on DVD – Max & Paddy’s The Power of Two.

The only fitness themed comedy title on the market, Max & Paddy’s The Power of Two is an extraordinary workout for ordinary people. Including a special guest appearance from award winning Phoenix Nights character Brian Potter, The Power of Two will leave viewers aching both from the exercise and the laughter.

Down on their luck, and up on body mass, Max & Paddy take to the world of home fitness video, deciding to mix Max’s strict army training with Paddy’s knowledge and limited experience of s-exercise. What more could the British public need to get back into shape after the holidays?
