DVDS OUT TOMORROW

ENTOURAGE: SERIES ONE (15)

More superb American TV - if only all US imports were this good. A great cast of largely unknown actors star in this tale of rising Hollywood actor Vincent Chase (Adrian Grenier), who brings his three best mates to LA with him. Based on Mark Wahlberg's real-life antics and great fun. Sex And The City for guys.

Rating: *****

FAST AND THE FURIOUS: TOKYO DRIFT (12)

I can't believe they are still making these films. The first was fine, the second terrible... so why this? It's car porn, with lingering camera caresses of smooth bodywork lines to keep petrolheads happy. There's a negligent plot but lots of great cars and driving.

Rating: *****

HARD CANDY (18)

I can't make up my mind about this film and it makes very tough viewing. Haley (Ellen Page) is a flirty 14-year-old who meets up with 30-something photographer Jeff (Patrick Wilson) and invites herself to his house. Things turn nasty as she drugs and tortures him, convinced he's a paedophile.

TUPAC: THE COMPLETE LIVE PERFORMANCES (18)

The finest rapper ever was the biggest talent to emerge from the States for years and a spokesman for a generation. Here we have two live performances which showcase his powerful lyrics and dynamic presence. Still sorely missed, Tupac is simply a legend.

Rating: *****

BAYWATCH: SEASON ONE (15)

I know this is dross but I have to give it full marks. Any show that manages to build a worldwide empire for no reason other than the presence of lots of gorgeous girls running in swimsuits is fine by me. With such ridiculous plots there's not much else on offer but hey, who needs anything more?
