Mad Men - Season 2 (TV Series) (2008): Mad men continues to bring quality TV drama in one of my favourite American periods. It\'s excellent in all aspects.; DVD ~~$20~~ $15
Homeland - Season 2 (TV Series) (2012): One of my favourite series in recent memory, Homeland is gripping A–grade TV drama with stunning performances and a solid script. The second season is almost as good as the first.
Homeland - Season 1 (TV Series) (2011): One of my favourite series in recent memory, Homeland is gripping A–grade TV drama with stunning performances and a solid script. The second season is almost as good as the first.; DVD ~~$15~~ $11.25
A History of Violence (2005): One of Cronenberg\'s best (in part due to a sensible plot), and Viggo is spectacular, delivering one of his career bests (alongside eastern promises). Once drawn in you\'ll want to see this one through.
Gone in 60 Seconds (2000): A fun Bruckheimer flick from his hey day, with plenty of stars, plenty of cars, laughs, and enjoyment. Don\'t hesitate to pick it up if you haven\'t yet seen it.
Fast and Furious 5 (Fast Five) (2011): Definitely an improvement over the past few films, but fast 5 doesn\'t quite capture the racing culture of the first and doesn\'t quite amount to a very good action flick either.
Lockout (2012): An almost great B grader for those interested in the genre, but strays a little too far into cliché. Guy Pearce is the standout, being both a bad ass and a comedian.
Judge Dredd (1995): Disappointing rendition of what could have been a great setup. Skip this and opt for the more recent and far superior Dredd with Karl Urban.
Dredd (2012): Karl Urban is perfect as Judge Dredd. The film may not be deep, but it\'s incredibly stylish and one of 2012s most enjoyable blockbusters. Well worth watching.
Bully (2011): The central character is worth following, and there are some tear–jerking moments, but some of the other kids fail to have the same effect. Not as shocking or compelling as the box promises.
