• Prevenge | Blu Ray | (05/06/2017) from £6.60   |  Saving you £N/A (N/A%)   |  RRP £N/A

  A pitch black, wryly British comedy from the mind of Alice Lowe, Prevenge follows Ruth, a pregnant woman on a killing spree. It's her misanthropic unborn baby dictating Ruth's actions, holding society responsible for the absence of a father. The child speaks to Ruth from the womb, coaching her to lure and ultimately kill her unsuspecting victims. Struggling with her conscience, loneliness, and a strange strain of prepartum madness, Ruth must ultimately choose between redemption and destruction at the moment of motherhood. Having shown at Venice, Toronto and most recently the London International Film Festival, Prevenge marks the directorial debut from Lowe, who is a true triple threat, writing, directing, and acting in the film during her own real-life pregnancy.

  If The Office was set in a hospital... Health care for the elderly is the least prestigious area of the medical service. The patients rarely make a fuss - often they're unable to - and for that reason bad practices slip through. But are they that bad? It's a tough world for staff too and getting on means well getting on. Dark funny tough and compassionate this is the story of one ward in one hospital in one overlooked corner of the modern health service. But although status isn't high moral questions come from all corners. It's a long way from ER and a lot closer to most people's experiences. It's the bit of health care that gets swept under the carpet - an overload of grumpy messy old people patched up only to return again a few months later. The staff on this ward joke as they go about their daily tasks leaving humour and dignity to mix as it will. With a retrospective script deliberately allowing for improvisation by the actors Getting On is a comedy of characters doing the best they can in a situation we can all relate to; everyone has an elderly relative parent grandparent and difficult choices are the order of the day. It's the scene that awaits all of us - whether we like to admit it or not.

• Back To The Future Trilogy | DVD | (02/12/2002) from £26.99   |  Saving you £-7.00 (N/A%)   |  RRP £19.99

  Before he grew up and started to become a serious filmmaker, Robert Zemeckis created arguably the most unashamedly entertaining film trilogy ever with his Back to the Future series. It's here that Zemeckis came closest to emulating his mentor Steven Spielberg, and here, too, that he showed his own talent for combining flashy visual effects and knock-about comedy. The vivacious screenplays, cowritten with Bob Gale, are chock full of forwards and backwards-looking jokes, 1950s nostalgia and wry nods to other movies. Michael J Fox and Christopher Lloyd, both alumni of successful small-screen sitcoms (Family Ties and Taxi respectively), bring a frenetic energy to their roles, but also the warmth and likability needed to carry the audience with them through time. Don't try and unravel the time-travel thread running throughout, as that way lie paradoxes: just accept its inherent absurdity and enjoy the ride. Marty McFly travels from 1985 to 1955 in a souped-up DeLorean sports car (Back to the Future), then forward in time to 2015 and back to 1955 again (Back to the Future II), before going all the way back to the Old West of 1885 (Back to the Future III). Matters become progressively more complicated as actions in the past have repercussions for the future, and vice versa. Marty learns life-lessons and Doc finds love at last; the joyful, helter-skelter pace never slackens for an instant. --Mark Walker On the DVD: Back to the Future travels through time to the DVD era with a three-disc set charting the much-loved trilogy in full, along with an abundance of special features. The real joy in this box set is the "Making of the Trilogy" featurette, which spans the three discs and offers a wealth of information on the films. The deleted scenes have not faired well with age, with the visuals and sound suffering immensely. On Disc One the anecdotes can be played along with the film as subtitles, which is more than can be said for the commentary with Robert Zemeckis and Bob Gale recorded at the California University, which is simply a Q & A session--not played along with the movie--and would have been stronger as a filmed special feature. But all in all as three-disc sets go it doesn't get much better than this--and you won't need 1.21 gigawatts of electricity to enjoy it. --Nikki Disney
