Customer photo review of The Matrix - The Wachowskis [BLU-RAY]
J. B.
The Matrix is a movie experience like no other, and experience is what it's all about. It explodes with dazzling visuals and a transcendent sense of excitement. The movie standing alone is a great movie but sets up the starting point for a great trilogy. This is a must own movie on Blu-Ray with the original cover art. Can recommend highly with a 10 out of 10

Customer photo review of The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug - Peter Jackson
J. B.
The Desolation of Smaug is much better than its predecessor, and is one of the best film of the trilogy. The special effects are magnificent especially the CGI work accomplished with the Smaug character is incredible. This 2 two disc edition sold by Golden Discs has lots of special features to keep any fan of middle earth happy. Recommended with a 8 out of 10

Customer photo review of Spartacus - Stanley Kubrick [BLU-RAY]
J. B.
The great-granddaddy of Ridley Scott's Gladiator hasn't lost any muscle tone after nearly half a century, and Kirk Douglas's direct, unpretentious performance as the great slave-rebel Spartacus is more engaging than ever. Please note that I got he 55th anniversary extended cut Blu Ray from Golden Discs. The movie look and sounds brilliant. This is a must own movie, happy to recommend with a 10 out of 10

Customer photo review of Bumblebee - Travis Knight [BLU-RAY]
J. B.
By looking back to the 80's from whence it came, the Transformers franchise seems to have found its heart again. Bumblebee is a movie the whole family can watch and I really enjoyed it. Highly recommended 9 of 10
Bumblebee - Travis Knight [BLU-RAY]
Customer photo review of Gladiator - Ridley Scott
J. B.
Ridley Scott takes an age-old formula and utilises it remarkably well, enhancing but never over-doing it with digital effects that help raise the ruins of the Colosseum and capture the magnificence and casual brutality of the culture. This remastered Blu Ray looks and sounds brilliant and the second disc has enough features to keep any fan of the movie happy. This is a must own Blu Ray, recommended with a 9 out of 10
Gladiator - Ridley Scott
Customer photo review of The Godfather Trilogy - Francis Ford Coppola [Collector's Edition]
S. M.
This is one of the best packaging I have seen for a movie series. It's not small by any means. It is about the width of two blu-ray cases and nearly the height of two as well. All the discs as in the back of the book. The book is a little disappointing as it mainly just features photos from the movies and not much text. I would of liked to see some information about the 4K restoration or some information about how the movies were shot etc. But don't let that put you off buying this, it really is...

Customer photo review of Between Us - Little Mix [Colour VINYL]
I. D.
Such a beautiful album, I did receive two yellow discs. No skips (records are in perfect playing condition, slight warping but that happens), shipping was pretty quick to the US. I definitely recommend buying if you’re a little mix fan. Would buy from this business again.

Customer photo review of Morbius - Daniel Espinosa [DVD]
D. N.
Morbius is a true Masterpiece. Just watched Morbius and i can say, it is truly a masterpiece. Sony was really accurate with Jared Leto as Morbius, one of if not the best villain i've seen so far, Morbius not only made me cry tears of joy but also made me think about my life, due to it being a movie full of action and philosophy. Im asking my mom to change my name to Jared Morbius Leto, because im just like him. This one for sure is gonna be Jared's next Oscar.

Customer photo review of Maigret: The Complete Series - Andrew Osborn [DVD]
L. A.
I was lucky enough to view some excellent samples of this product on a recent trip to London. My only regret is there doesn’t appear to be any date sited for a U. S. release.

C. S.
Talented, brilliant, incredible, Amazing, showstopping, Spectacular, Never the same, totally unique, completely not ever been done before, unafraid to reference or not reference, put it in a sh*t on it, vomit on it, give birth to it.

Customer photo review of Use Your Illusion I - Guns N' Roses [CD]
J. B.
It's widely beleived by rock critics that if Guns N' Roses combined the best material from Use Your Illusion I & II onto just one record it would have created one of the greatest rock albums of our time. Use Your Illusion I' is the heavier of the two albums. Happy to recommend with 9 out of 10
Use Your Illusion I - Guns N’ Roses [CD]
Customer photo review of GIMME SOME TRUTH.: - John Lennon [CD]
J. B.
A fabulous cd of John’s greatest solo hits slightly remastered by Yoko and his son Sean.Great to hear these songs on would have been his 80th Birthday. This CD is a must buy for any Beatles / Lennon fan. Happy to recommend with 10 out of 10
GIMME SOME TRUTH.: - John Lennon [CD]
Customer photo review of The Conjuring - James Wan [DVD]
J. B.
Perhaps what gives The Conjuring its pulse is the decision to tell the story from the point of view of the investigators -- giving the film a much-needed human layer. Please note the DVD I got from Golden Discs comes with a nice Slip Cover. Happy to recommend with 8 out of 10
The Conjuring - James Wan [DVD]
Customer photo review of The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars - David Bowie [CD]
J. B.
This was the album that made a huge star out of David Bowie in 1972 and introduced his Ziggy Stardust persona in the process. Every track is a classic and there are no duff tracks on the album at all. This is still his finest album of the 1970s, in my opinion and only 1980's Scary Monsters album matched it. Bowie didn't get much better than this. Happy to recommend with a 10 out of 10
The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars - David Bowie [CD]
Customer photo review of Thor: Ragnarok - Taika Waititi [DVD]
J. B.
Firstly, Thor ragnorak is Visually stunning, full of vibrant special effects and great cinematography. In my view Thor Ragnorak is one of the stronger Marvel adaptations and certainly the strongest Thor movie, a must see for all marvel fans! Nice slipcover and happy to recommend with a 9 out of 10
Thor: Ragnarok - Taika Waititi [DVD]
Customer photo review of Gimme Some Wine: - Eleanor McEvoy [CD]
S. H.
Album arrived in Anglesey today in perfect condition. Three familiar tracks from the direct cut vinyl, Forgotten Dreams. The stand out tracks for me at the moment are South Anne St, reflective and nostalgic, followed by the uplifting romp through Gimmie Some Wine. Another very fine addition to my EM collection.
Gimme Some Wine: - Eleanor McEvoy [CD]
Customer photo review of Hit - Peter Gabriel [CD]
J. B.
This is a really good CD for both collectors of Peter Gabriel and fans, but also for people new to his music as it contains all his greatest hits on disc 1 and some other less commercial songs on disc 2. It is really well produced and full of good tunes. Happy to recommend with 8 out 10
Hit - Peter Gabriel [CD]
Customer photo review of Logan - James Mangold [DVD]
J. B.
Logan presents us with a dark, devastating final journey for one of cinema's most enduring comic book characters. Though it is undoubtedly bleak, there are also moments of much-needed warmth, and ultimately a sense of hope resonates. Should have purchased on Blu Ray (still might). Happy to recommend with 8 out of 10
Logan - James Mangold [DVD]
Customer photo review of Avatar: Collector's Extended Edition - James Cameron [Collector's Edition]
J. B.
The movie itself and the digital world of Pandora is spellbinding. The imagination on display from Cameron and his visual effects team is breathtaking. This 3 disc Blu-Ray set has 3 different versions of the movie, be it's the Extended Cut is the best in my opinion. This is the perfect sci-fi movie, must own for any movie collection 10 out of 10
Avatar: Collector’s Extended Edition - James Cameron [Collector’s Edition]
Customer photo review of E.T. The Extra Terrestrial - Steven Spielberg [BLU-RAY]
J. B.
Remember seeing E.T in the cinema as a 11 year old, it's a movie that Steven Spielberg crafted with warmth and humor a simple fantasy that works so superbly on so many levels and attractred masses of people from all demographics who over generations love this movie. Perfect family movie. Recommended with a 9 out of 10, must own Blu ray
E.T. The Extra Terrestrial - Steven Spielberg [BLU-RAY]
Customer photo review of Seven - David Fincher [BLU-RAY]
J. B.
With Se7en, every murder is more sordid than the previous one, nothing prepares the viewer for the heart-pulsating shocker at the end, when the contents of that box made John Doe ( the creepy Kevin Spacey) into one of the most notorious on-screen villains. This is one of my favourite movies of all time, and the Blu-Ray I got from Golden Discs comes with a nice slip cover. Highly recommended 10 out of 10
Seven - David Fincher [BLU-RAY]
Customer photo review of Snatchers - Stephen Cedars [BLU-RAY]
J. B.
Snatchers (2019), may not join the ranks of great horror movies about pregnancy, but there's enough gore and laughs to keep every horror fan entertained. Really enjoyed this movie, can recommend it with a 8 out of 10
Snatchers - Stephen Cedars [BLU-RAY]
Customer photo review of The Last Samurai - Edward Zwick [BLU-RAY]
J. B.
The Last Samurai, 2003, delivers in ways that would have made even Akira Kurosawa himself proud. It's a really good movie and the landscapes of New Zealand's North Island looks absolutely beautiful. Really Enjoyable can recommend with a 8 out of 10
The Last Samurai - Edward Zwick [BLU-RAY]
Customer photo review of V for Vendetta - James McTeigue [BLU-RAY]
J. B.
V for Vendetta remains just as thought-provoking as ever and stands out as a highlight to the Wachowski's ability to write scenes that delight, thrill, and frighten almost all at once. This is a great movie and can recommend it with a 9 out of 10
V for Vendetta - James McTeigue [BLU-RAY]

I’m glad I was finally able to get my hands on this album! I also saw a SuperM album in the store when I bought Butter so I’m glad to see more groups are coming to golden discs :)

Customer photo review of Hustlers - Lorene Scafaria [BLU-RAY]
J. B.
A deliriously entertaining, very funny, and occasionally shocking depiction of a true life story that is indeed so absurd that it must be true, hey only in the USA I guess. While JLo looks amazing for a one in her 50s as a stripper. Can recommend with 7 out of 10
Hustlers - Lorene Scafaria [BLU-RAY]
Customer photo review of Friday the 13th - Sean S. Cunningham [BLU-RAY]
J. B.
Blazing Saddles is more than simply a loving spoof of Hollywood westerns, Blazing Saddles is one of the funniest movies ever made... and one of the most audacious satires of racism to come out of Hollywood. The famous one liners are brilliant, "the sheriff is NEAR" been a good example. This Blu Ray from golden Discs is the 40th anniversary Remastered version, highly recommended 10 out of 10

Customer photo review of A Clockwork Orange - Stanley Kubrick [BLU-RAY Special Edition]
J. B.
A Clockwork Orange is another powerfully disturbing and undeniably brilliant film by Stanley Kubrick, who shakes us up once again with a nightmare parable about man's Inescapable destiny of violence. Pure classic in every way, making this essential for any Blu Ray collection. Highly recommended 9 out of 10
A Clockwork Orange - Stanley Kubrick [BLU-RAY Special Edition]
Customer photo review of BlackkKlansman - Spike Lee [BLU-RAY]
J. B.
BlacKkKlansman is a buoyant buddy-cop caper, a loving homage to Blaxploitation films, and an intelligent conversation with the past and the present. At 135 mins long the movie never feels to long and the acting is excellent. Highly recommended 9 out of 10
BlackkKlansman - Spike Lee [BLU-RAY]
Customer photo review of Apollo 13 - Ron Howard [BLU-RAY]
J. B.
Apollo 13 is tense as the best murder mysteries and as kinetic as the most exciting action films, this space adventure is as thrilling as movies get. The Remastered movie looks glorious on this Blu Ray release and you need to watch it on the biggest screen available. Must own for any Blu Ray collection. Recommended with a 9 out of 10, Brilliant!!
