The first time that the opening episode of Slim Shady Version II was shown to the public as a prelude to Eminem's live set on the Anger Management tour in America, it received critical acclaim. The point was clear, ran the consensus: by juxtaposing cartoon images of his split personality alongside South Park characters, Marshall Mathers was querying why their anti-social behaviour is satire and his is offensive. More episodes then turned up on the Web leading MTV to commission these nine five-minute shorts in which Slim Shady and Marshall Mathers run around taking drugs, swearing, attempting to have sex and beating up pop stars such as N'Stink and Pristina Gagulera. Sadly, those kind of lame puns are about as funny as it gets. A typical scene runs like this: the boys spot Matt Damon and Ben Affleck and they beat them up. That's it. Worse still, any sense of characterisation that places in context the anger and prejudice of Eminem's recorded work is lost here, leaving dumb and rather ugly misogyny to stand alone. A brief documentary about the making of the shorts is equally as grim and proves that cartoons really shouldn't be made by people with no sense of humour.--Ian Watson

Santa Claus does not exist. Or does he? For one doubting boy (voice of Daryl Sabara & Tom Hanks) an astonishing event occurs. Late on Christmas Eve night he lies in bed hoping to hear the sound of reindeer bells from Santa's sleigh. When to his surprise a steam engine's roar and whistle can be heard outside his window. The conductor (also voiced of Tom Hanks) invites him on board to take an extraordinary journey to the North Pole with many other pajama-clad children. There he receives an extraordinary gift only those who still believe in Santa can experience.
A respectable and picturesque realisation of DH Lawrence's novel, 1989's The Rainbow is director Ken Russell's prequel to his 1969 version of Women in Love. By Russell's standards, this is a remarkably restrained treatment of Lawrence's novel, set in the Midlands in the 19th century: with its lush, rural setting and quaint bucolic soundtrack there are moments when you might imagine you're watching The Railway Children--until the sex scenes kick in, that is. Her soul infused with infinite longing by the sight of a rainbow as a child, Ursula Brangwen grows up restless at the prescribed roles set out for women in Victorian England, which are stoically endured by her mother (Glenda Jackson, who played Ursula's sister Gudrun in Women in Love). She idealises her swimming instructor--the older, more experienced Winifred (Amanda Donohoe) with whom she enjoys a passionate, borderline lesbian relationship. She becomes a schoolteacher against her parents' wishes, and takes up with Paul McGann, who is somewhat tepid as a Boer War officer. Ultimately, however, she finds all of these limitations too constraining and finally strikes out on her own in search of true spiritual and sexual freedom. On the DVD: This is a full-screen version of the film, ratio 4:3. The sound quality is fine as is the colour and sharpness, though like the film itself, not quite as ravishing as you might hope. Special features consist of a routine trailer ("She played by her passion, not by their rules") and disappointingly perfunctory "filmographies" of the director and cast: merely lists of their previous movies. --David Stubbs
