undefined review of Interstellar - Christopher Nolan [BLU-RAY] image 1 out of 1

J. B.

this 2014 movie directed by Christopher Nolan, is set in a dystopian future where humanity is struggling to survive, the film follows a group of astronauts who travel through a wormhole near Saturn in search of a new home for mankind in another galaxy. It stars Matthew McConaughey, Anne Hathaway, Jessica Chastain, and Matt Damon. Really love this movie but needs to be watched on the biggest screen you can find. Great soundtrack by Hans Zimmer. Essential must own. 10 out of 10

undefined review of The Invisible Man - Leigh Whannell [DVD] image 1 out of 1

J. B.

Really enjoyed this movie, maybe not as good as Hollow Man but takes a different angle then the original from 1933. If your looking for a good couple of shock scares there are plenty here. 7 out of 10

undefined review of Mothership - Led Zeppelin [CD] image 1 out of 1

J. B.

Mothership is a double CD that in essence is the best of Album from the rock gods that are Led Zeppelin. If you are new to the these masterpieces this is a great starting point or if your just a fan these CDs are perfect for song after song of pure indulgence. Highly recommended 10 out of 10

undefined review of Rumours - Fleetwood Mac [CD] image 1 out of 1

J. B.

The remastered version of the Classic 1977 Fleetwood Mac Album. This is probably the best of all their albums, but not sure how, Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks relationship was broken down and not talking to each other and Big Mick Fleetwood to this day has little memory of the years following recording the album. The sound quality is super, a must have for any collection and Fleetwood Mac fan

Rumours - Fleetwood Mac [CD]

undefined review of Hotel California: - The Eagles [CD] image 1 out of 1

J. B.

Remastered CD of the 5th studio Album by The Eagles, from 1976. This was the first time Joe Walsh played guitar after recently joining the band. Hotel California has never sounded as good with this CD, little sorry I didn't pay extra and get the 2CD . Regardless this makes a great addition to any music collection.

Hotel California: - The Eagles [CD]

J. B.

Remastered CD of Queen's 6th Studio Album from 1977. This has one of my favourite album cover artwork. Turn up your volume and rock out to We Will Rock You and We are the Champions. Freddie and Brian May at their best

undefined review of The Razor's Edge - AC/DC [CD] image 1 out of 1

J. B.

The Razor's Edge is the 12th studio Album to be released in 1990 by the the legendary band that is AC/DC. This is the 2003 Remaster of the album, the CD like others in the series comes with a nice booklet detailing the background of the album with great images of the band. I absolutely love this album, volume to 10 and rock out to Thunderstruck and Money Talks. Great Album, Highly Recommended.

undefined review of Brothers in Arms - Dire Straits [CD] image 1 out of 1

J. B.

Where do you review a masterpiece like Brothers in Arms, Brothers in Arms was the first album certified 10-times platinum in the UK and is the eighth-best-selling album in UK chart history. I just love this Remaster I had the original LP and wore it out with repeat playing. The Remastered CD offers fans a chance to enjoy the music all over again with pure digital clarity. Highly recommended!

Brothers in Arms - Dire Straits [CD]

undefined review of Apocalypse Now: Final Cut - Francis Ford Coppola [DVD] image 1 out of 1

J. B.

Originally purchased the 4 Disc Blu of Apocalypse Now - The Final Cut, which also contains the original version (shorter) and Redux version (longer). Not sure if I enjoyed the Final Cut more then Redux, but one thing for sure the remastered movie looks beautifully restored. Details often missed in previous releases can be clearly seen in this version. If you like the smell of Naplam in the morning or the music of the Doors, re-live it all and buy this Blu Ray.

undefined review of Nevermind - Nirvana [CD] image 1 out of 1

J. B.

This Album is just a pure masterpiece. In 1991 it was the first album to feature drummer Dave Grohl. This Remastered Anniversary copy sounds just great. A music collection within Nevermind is not a collection, buy it!

undefined review of 1999: - Prince [CD Deluxe Edition] image 1 out of 1

J. B.

This Album was first released in 1982 and was the 5th to be released by Prince. This was also the first album that Prince had collaborated with The Revolution. The Deluxe 2CD has some really good remixes and Edits. If your a fan of Prince's music this is a must have. Two thumbs up for me!

undefined review of A Star Is Born: - Various Performers [CD] image 1 out of 1

J. B.

Saw the movie on RTÉ over Christmas 2020 and really enjoyed it, made the decision to get he soundtrack. This is a fine soundtrack, it's more then just the well known Shallow track. Surprised at Bradley Coopers singing abilities.

undefined review of For Those About to Rock We Salute You - AC/DC [CD] image 1 out of 1

J. B.

This Album was AC/DC 8th studio recording by the band originally released in 1981, it was also Brian Johnson's second album with the band following the hugely successful Back in Black. This is the AC/DC at their finest, it's always been a repeat player for me. Booklet included in this remastered series (2003). 10 out 10

undefined review of First Man - Damien Chazelle [BLU RAY] image 1 out of 1

J. B.

Based on the only authorise biography of Neil Armstrong by James R. Hansen, which shares the same title, First Man doesn't just follow the narrative of the first lunar landing, but takes a long, hard look at Armstrong as an individual man. Good movie but a little slow and about 30 minutes to long. 6 out of 10

First Man - Damien Chazelle [BLU RAY]

undefined review of Goodfellas - Martin Scorsese [BLU-RAY] image 1 out of 1

J. B.

Released in 1990 Ray Liotta narrates the movie of the rise and fall of mob associate Henry Hill and his friends and family from 1955 to 1980. One of the best movies you will ever watch. This double disc Blu Ray, is a really nice presentation, slipcover and booklet. Enough background features to keep any fan of the movie happy. Essential for anybody's Blu Ray collection, 10 out of 10

undefined review of My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy: - Kanye West [VINYL] image 1 out of 1

D. M.

This album helped me get through my leaving cert in 2010. I listened to “All of the Lights” on a continuous loop for months, it fired me up; the rest of the album got me riled up and motivated to take on the world with a fresh face. It’s message, tone and energy is rare, not only in hip hop but in music in general

undefined review of Charmed: Complete Seasons 1-8 - Constance M. Burge [DVD] image 1 out of 1

F. C.

This DVD box set beings back so much childhood nostalgia for me I recall when I used to plan my mid-week viewing of tv shows around this very show just so I would miss it and now that I have this box set I get to relive old memories by watching them all over again.

I found your website very unresponsive. I clicked repeatedly on vinyl before I thought that I had finally got it. When the product arrived in the post it was a CD. I have no plans to buy on-line with you again on account of this.

Ordering off golden discs is very handy, and very very efficient, I got the philomena Begley cd for my dad as she was his favourite singer ,and I have to say I will be ordering more cds in the future

My Life, My Music, My Memories - Philomena Begley [CD]

B. D.

I bought this box set because it's the bassist from black Sabbath so this was very different for me the music is heavier than I expected but I soon got into the groove of it Its worth having for sure it's not too easy to get this one as most online shops don't have this now so again trump's up for golden discs

undefined review of Blade Runner: The Final Cut - Ridley Scott [BLU-RAY] image 1 out of 1

J. B.

Based on the classic Sci-Fi novel Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? By Philip K. Dick, This is one of my favourite movies of all time and demandsrepeat viewing time after time. Harrison Ford was the headlining star but it's the late Rutger Hauer who steals the show as Roy Batty and the famous tears in the rain monologue. A movie collection without this Blu Ray is not a collection, buy it, recommended 10 out of 10

Blade Runner: The Final Cut - Ridley Scott [BLU-RAY]

undefined review of Road to Perdition - Sam Mendes [BLU-RAY] image 1 out of 1

J. B.

The Road to Perdition is a movie that demands repeat viewing just to see the great acting performances of Hanks and Newman sharing the screen. The movie tell the story of a mob enforcer's son witnesses a murder, forcing him and his father to take to the road, and his father down a path of redemption and revenge. Essential addition to any Blu Ray collection, highly recommended 9 out f 10

Road to Perdition - Sam Mendes [BLU-RAY]

undefined review of Gemini Man - Ang Lee [DVD] image 1 out of 1

J. B.

This very smart film follows Will Smith as a retiring hitman who is targeted by a much younger clone of himself called Junior while on the run from a secret US government organisation. Director John Woo (Face Off and Hard Target) keeps the action sequences coming fast and frequent, the CGI face of Will Smith character is worth the purchase of this movie alone. Enjoyable stuff, recommended at 7 out of 10

Gemini Man - Ang Lee [DVD]

undefined review of Joker - Todd Phillips [BLU-RAY] image 1 out of 1

This movie tracks the origins of of Bob Kane's best Villain, The Joker. In 1981, party clown and aspiring stand-up comedian Arthur Fleck lives with his mother, Penny, in Gotham City. Gotham is rife with crime and unemployment. Arthur suffers from a neurological disorder that greatly affects his behavior in society. Easily one of the best movies of 2019 with a great performances all round, highly recommended 10 out of 10

Joker - Todd Phillips [BLU-RAY]

undefined review of Deadpool 2 - David Leitch [BLU-RAY] image 1 out of 1

J. B.

Deadpool 2 is wicked, dark fun from start to finish, with some twisted and very funny special effects. Aliens, Godfather Part II and Star Wars Episode V, all rises the bar on their predecessors and this does the same. Hugh Jackman absolutely loved this movie but just make sure you purchase the Blu-Ray which contains the extended cut, Hugh Jackman highly recommended it, 8 out of 10
