Carmen goes Brando and knocks your socks off!
I bought this on the strength of Swan Lake, but as the music is Bizet,I wasnt sure what to expect, especially after the stunning performances by Adam Cooper as the Swan and Scott Ambler as the Prince. Well Swan Lake it aint. The Car Man is aptly described as an "auto-erotic thriller" - and you do feel at the end of Act 1 that a cold shower is in order. The story is clear cut Hollywood, and Bournes choreography in a contemporary setting is as ever superb - I am a big fan of this man and his Dance. He is not afraid to challenge convention and give a new twist to an old story. So saying some may find the story a little cliched - watch the interview with the man, and you will understand his reasoning. The whole piece sizzles with lust and violence - no wonder the mayor of Carmens home town was up in arms - she is a bit of a slut in this. Alan Vincent does NOT look like a dancer and his performance delights. Plaudits go to Will Kemp and Etta Murfitt - just watch their pas de deux and its refrain at the end. The dancers are as always excellent - though I was disappointed to see Scott Ambler relegated to comic relief - he still looks as fit now at forty something as he did in his mid 30s dancing the Prince - so come on Mr Bourne dont cast him aside yet. If you want sex, rocknroll and ballet this is the one for you - prudes and traditionalists beware though!

Matthew Bourne does it again !
If you loved Matthew Bournes "Swan lake" this DVD is a must. Again , Matthew Bourne takes famous music and creates a totally new story that still has a common bond to the original one. Together with Bizets brilliant music from "Carmen" , and Matthew Bournes fascinating choreography , we get here a great ballet.

The stuff Hollywood dreams of making
If you saw this on the telly, youll know what im talkin about. Its incredible. For someone whos a little scared of live performances for their near perfectness this is like watching the exorcist. Beautiful dancing, stunning effects (blood n gore), fantastic story, incredible score and a stella cast this one is not to be missed. I dont want to spoil it for anyone by saying to mush but this real is a sight to be seen and you will not be dissapointed (if a little shocked- its a tad racy). Enjoy!

4 Stars because of the cheesy jokes. Part from that great series that you can keep watching.
Highly recomme..

BTCC Review 2003

Best of a bad job? In a way, yes, in a way, no. This DVD has everything you would expect, but is lacking something, something that isnt immediately obvious but becomes so as you watch it.The race weekend coverage is good, I wish it could be so much longer, but we cant have it all. Although I cann..

Dude, Wheres My Car? [LBX] [2001] (REGION 1) (NTSC)
|
An entry into an already rather overcrowded market, Dude, Wheres My Car? is a very dumb but exuberant comedy aimed fairly and squarely at the teen market. An attempt to recreate the classic feel of certain movies from the late 80s and early 90s, it centres around two hopeless individuals (Jesse and Chester) and their efforts to piece together the night before and, more importantly, find Jesses car. The plot--such as it is, takes in many a convoluted turn with the introduction of transsexu..
