• Micmacs | Blu Ray | (21/06/2010) from £N/A   |  Saving you £N/A (N/A%)   |  RRP £22.99

  Cinematic fantasy, topical subject matter, edge-of-the-seat pacing and witty wordplay combine in Jean-Pierre Jeunet's latest outing.

• Amelie (Two Disc Special Edition) | DVD | (08/07/2002) from £N/A   |  Saving you £N/A (N/A%)   |  RRP £24.99

  With its use of special effects to express the main character's internal emotions, Jean-Pierre Jeunet's Amelie could have been mistaken for a French version of Ally McBeal; however, unlike Ally--"woe is me for I cannot find a man"--McBeal, Amelie is not distressed by the lack of men in her life, in fact the whole idea of sex seems to amuse her no end. Basic pleasures such as cracking the top of a Crème Brule offer her all the sensual satisfaction she needs and her existence in the "Paris of Dreams" is the stuff of fairy tales. Indeed, this cinematic treat must have worked wonders for the Paris tourist board: Jeunet's beautiful interpretation of Parisian life is depicted in all the vibrant colours you would expect from the director of Delicatessen. On the DVD: Amelie has received an additional disc for this special edition release. Disc 1 is the same as the original single-disc release, with a choice of DTS or Dolby 5.1 sound and an 16.9 anamorphic widescreen picture with optional director's commentary. The second disc contains the new special features and, just like original disc, a lot of thought has gone into the access menu with its lavish graphics offering the choice of entering the Café, the Canal or the Station. Yet the most exciting extra in name--"Audrey Tautou's funny face"--is simply a series of out-takes which does little more than allow you to warm to Tautou as a person. The home movie includes the transformation of Tautou into Amelie and the creation of the "photo-booth album". There are also interesting interviews with Jeunet and the cast and crew, and a nice little section themed around the gnome and his travels. Along with this is a storyboard-to-screen exposition, behind-the-scenes pictures, scene tests, teasers and trailers. All in all a decent enough package, but hardly warranting the special edition label. It's hard not to wonder why Momentum didn't offer this set two months earlier. --Nikki Disney

• The Pack | DVD | (04/07/2011) from £6.75   |  Saving you £6.24 (92.44%)   |  RRP £12.99

  The earth wants blood...and there are those who cannot refuse it. In a snowy no man's land loner Charlotte Massot picks up hitchhiker Max for security after being hassled by an unruly motorbike gang. But when Max goes missing at the La Spack truck-stop caf and she investigates his disappearance little does she realise she is being set up to take part in an unholy ritual. Miners in the area once raped the earth for its riches. So is it any wonder Mother Nature is sending her own ghoulish monsters to reclaim another resource in return? Blood! Visually arresting and featuring many smartly directed twists and turns Franck Richard's debut feature follows in the sick and slick tradition of recent French fear fare with Brotherhood of the Wolf star Emilie Dequenne and Gallic gore favourite Philippe Nahon acting their heads off. Literally. Remember: wrestling mama La Spack is the new Black.

• Louise-Michel | DVD | (25/04/2011) from £8.45   |  Saving you £7.54 (89.23%)   |  RRP £15.99

  Absurdist French filmmakers Benoit Delepine and Gustave Kervern's follow up to 2004's Aaltra Louise-Michel is a jet black comedy in which the recently-fired female employees of a children's clothing factory led by ex-con Louise (Yolande Moreau Mammuth) pool their funds together to put a 'hit' on their callous boss. But while security specialist Michel seems like the perfect candidate to carry out the hit his ineptitude is so great that he attempts to sub-contract the job to a series of inexperienced - and highly inappropriate - assassins with outrageous and unexpected results.
