A modern retelling of the cyrano de bergerac story, with Steve Martin in the lead role as a small town fire chief (CD bates)with a huge noise, who falls in love with Roxanne who only seems to have eyes for the hunky new fireman who we soon find out can't speak to woman and so enlist the help CD to help him win the heart of Roxanne things soon get complicated when uses his own feelings in the letters he writes to Roxanne. 7/10

A enjoyable bit of late 80s nonsense with the one and only Chuck Norris taking down terrorists that invade the good old US of A in his usually OTT and impossible way. Would of been more enjoyable if the people he was saving where even the least bit likeable, but all I could think was why even bother chuck their all so unlikeable just let the terrorists kill them, they would be doing the world a favour. 7/10

Basically Arnie does James Bond with a family. Very over the top but that's why I like it. Great set pieces and characters, we have a very young Eliza Dushku as his daughter and Charlton Heston as Arnies boss. But the real highlight and the one everyone remembers is that black dress. 9.5/10

Very different but no less enjoyable Arnie vehicle that's shows that he has a flair for comedy. The film works because of the chemistry between the two leads. 8.5/10
