Shrek The Third (2007): The third big–screen Shrek in 6 years, and the series is showing some serious strain (as seen by critic's reviews, even if box office sales are still high).
Shrek Forever After (Shrek 4) (2010): Shrek is back on form, but he's still not quite as funny or as charming as he seemed to be back in the early 2000s.
Shrek 2 (2004): Arguably just as good as the first, although not as original, Shrek 2 pulls in more delightful characters and keeps the jokes rolling for all ages. Still the highest–grossing Shrek, and the 2nd–highest grossing animation ever (2nd now to Toy story 3).
Shrek (2001): A mixed–up fairytales story for a 21st century audience of kids and adults, Shrek has it all. This was the best animated in many years, coaxing people of all ages, worldwide, to see it at cinemas.
JCVD (2008): JCVD shows that he is more than just a brainless action star and opens up to the audience much more than ever before. This is Van Damme's answer to Rourke's 'The Wrestler' and Sly's 'Rocky'. Now if only the video quality was as good as the acting.
Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade (1989): Not as good as either of the two previous adventures, the series has become just a little too far–fetched. This is still a memorable quest for the Holy Grail, and Harrison brings some other famous faces with him, but there is nothing groundbreaking.
Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981): The first adventure from our now well–known and favourite archaeologist, Raiders of the Lost Ark was unique and ambitious for its time, and remains a fantastic starting–point for the classic adventure series.
Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull (2008): Another Indiana Jones adventure, beginning just as strongly as others in the series, but later taking a sci–fi turn for the worst. The 'feel' and action are essentially the same, but the story is simply too far–fetched.
Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom (1984): The best Indiana Jones of the series, this is dark and eerie, culminating in a descent to what appears to be the depths of hell, and a furious chase back to the surface.
Indiana Jones DVD Collection (Raiders of the Lost Ark, Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull) (1981-2008): All of the Indies in one box, this is great value for money, with hours of film action, plenty of special features, and all remastered for better audio–visual quality.
