Review title: James Bond Fantasy Product review: All Bond films require huge suspensions of disbelief which are happily given for the ride. This one is no exception and delivers vast quantities of thrills and near misses. James does battle with Korea this time, one of the few remaining unknown evil entities in the world. Interestingly, one of the most engaging scenes involves not fantastic inventions but good old-fashioned swordplay between Pierce Brosnan as Bond and the villain, Gustav Graves, dashingly portrayed by Toby Stephens. For once, all the eye candy is not reserved for the men in the audience as Stephens plays the handsome baddie for all he's worth. And he is worth millions...in diamonds. The other kind of ice featured is a palace made of it, a perfect venue for an amazing car chase. Halle Berry and Rosamond Pike offer the stuff men's dreams are made of. All in all, a very entertaining trip to fantasy land.

Review title: Bergman at her best Product review: Ingrid Bergman received a Best Actress award from the Academy for her performance in the 1944 version of Gaslight. As anyone knows, the Oscars are not necessarily a good guide to fine acting but, in this case, she deserved it in spades. This taut, suspenseful production, superbly directed by the great George Cukor, also features fine performances from Charles Boyer, Angela Lansbury (17, going on 18) and Joseph Cotten. But it is Bergman's performance which elevates this film out of the ruck, so that it takes its place among the best of its type. The DVD transfer, on the whole, is good, although the print from which it was made shows considerable signs of wear in the first 10 minutes, and the whole thing could do with a restoration/clean. The special feature, hosted by Bergman's daughter, Pia Lindstrom, is well worthwhile - and on the flipside of the disc there is also the 1940 British version of the Patrick Hamilton play. A DVD worth owning.

Review title: good idea, bad execution Product review: In addition to all the previous complaints (poor fan, not enough/too heavy butterflies, trunk too long, battery hog) I'll add one more: the nets are poorly constructed, the fabric snags on everything (including winter dry skin!) and the loops break like breadsticks. Not at all suited to active, excited children. A burst of butterflies and adrenaline and then little else. Save your money.
