Bourne Supremacy, The (2004)
Excellent follow–up to the first Bourne, this has Damon jumping from place to place unpredictably, with Greengrass making use of the handheld technique a little too often. But the action, tension and conspiracy are all here!
Bourne Ultimatum, The (2007)
- A brilliant spy actioner that has Damon (who else could play Bourne now) and Greengrass again taking us on a thrilling ride through stunning scene after scene on a breathless chase to the top of the agency that holds the truth about his past.
One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest (1975)
Nicholson is incredible in this brilliant film adaptation of the Ken Kesey novel. We're never quite sure of Nicholson's mental state, or of his purpose, making the film unpredictably funny and gripping from start to finish.- DVD
$24.95$18.70 
William Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet (Romeo + Juliet) (1997)- Baz Luhrmann sure has an eye for style, updating the Shakespeare classic for this generation, and casting the swooning DiCaprio and sweet Claire Danes as Romeo and Juliet. This is Shakespeare for a Hollywood audience, but somehow, it works.
Twilight (2008)
A teenage vampire outing, very sleek and Hollywood, this comes across more Harry Potter than True Blood in its primary appeal to the teenage–girl audience. It's not bad, but it's just not that interesting or original either.
True Blood - Season 2 (TV Series) (2009)
The second season is simply not as good as the first, despite the promise of upping the supernatural elements. Still worth watching in the hope the third season will be back on form.- DVD
$25$18.75 
True Blood - Season 1 (TV Series) (2008)- A dark and sexy series of blood and lust, with NZ's Paquin playing a small–town American girl seeking more from life, and perhaps biting off more than she can handle, by getting involved with a mysterious vampire.
- DVD
$20$15 
Buffy the Vampire Slayer (TV Series) - Season 1 (1996)- Shooting SMG to fame, this Joss Whedon creation became a pop–culture phenomenon in the 1990s, with wit, sex–appeal, and an alternate teenage vampire universe which is proving successful again in the 2000s (Twilight, Vampire Diaries, True Blood).
Perfect Creature (2006)- Ambitious NZ film with some great atmosphere and effects, and an imaginative alternate steam–punk reality. Visually excellent, but the script, plot, and acting let it down in a big way.
- DVD
$14.95$11.20 
Interview With the Vampire (1994)- The best Anne Rice novel and also the best film adaptation of her work, Interview with the Vampire is original in its insight to the life of an immortal through the ages. A great story with quirky fantasy acting and some gory blood–sucking moments.
