An Idiot Abroad (TV Series) (2010): I find it hard to believe that Karl Pilkington is real, that he's not pulling a Sacha Baron Cohen on us. But the fact that he keeps it up, and truly doesn't seem to be enjoying what he's put through, mostly kept me laughing.
Eddie Izzard - Glorious (1997): Probably the best Izzard you can find – and in saying that, the best live stand up show you can find.
Eddie Izzard - Dress to Kill (1998): Hilarious, one of a kind comedian Izzard. One of my favourite stand–up DVDs and a must–see for those who like his quirky, wildly imaginative performances.
Walking Dead, The (TV Series) (2010): One of my favourite series in a long time, this is as gritty and realistic as zombie films get (the production values of this series are on par with a feature film). Pity season 2 hasn\'t kept up the high standards of the first.
Drive (2011): An excellent example of \"style over substance\" done right. The characters, the suspense, the intense moments of action, the music – it\'s all spot on.; DVD ~~$19.95~~ $14.95
Source Code (2011): Duncan Jones (AKA Zowie Bowie) again proves that he has an eye for sci–fi – not as chilling as Moon, but a great film that surpassed expectations of just another Hollywood blockbuster.
Underbelly - Season 4 (TV Mini-series) (Land of the Long Green Cloud) (2011): By far the most disappointing entry in the series, with poor acting, over–the–top characters, and lacking the gritty realism of the Australian counterparts.
Underbelly - Season 5 (TV Mini-series) (Razor) (2011): Another excellent Underbelly season, right up there with the first season. Starts to drag a little by the end, but compelling characters and \'20s grit keep it interesting and mostly exciting.
Texas Chainsaw Massacre, The (2003): Not too bad remake at all, with some decent fright moments – but the chilling line left ringing in my ears at the end sums up these remakes: "you're going the wrong way..."
P.S. I Love You (2007): One of the best rom–coms around, and touching too – very pleasantly surprised!
