An entry into an already rather overcrowded market, Dude, Where's My Car? is a very dumb but exuberant comedy aimed fairly and squarely at the teen market. An attempt to recreate the classic feel of certain movies from the late 80s and early 90s, it centres around two hopeless individuals (Jesse and Chester) and their efforts to piece together the night before and, more importantly, find Jesse's car. The plot--such as it is, takes in many a convoluted turn with the introduction of transsexual strippers and aliens but still finds itself stretched thin over the course of the meagre 79 minutes. The film's aspirations are clear. With it's central duo and infuriating use of catchphrases it is almost a direct steal from Wayne's World and Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure, both of which are leagues ahead in terms of writing, performance and general style. The humour here is base and far too obvious, concentrating on the old standbys of sex and toilets, plus a small dig at blind children along the way. For a better example of such humour head for the genuinely funny American Pie or, for a teen comedy with actual intelligence and panache, the peerless 10 Things I Hate About You.On The DVD: The extensive range of extra features are in keeping with the overall style of the project. The audio commentary from director Danny Leiner and his two main stars is simply a succession of in-jokes and childish hysterics, while the behind the scenes documentary is equally banal. There is a selection of extended scenes, trailers and TV spots plus a music video from Grand Theft Auto, the best thing about the whole package. --Phil Udell

I borrow the car again from Grandma and drive out to my hill. I scream I am a big fat zero, plus I am swearing off kissing forever, and I hate being a secret sex fiend, about sixteen times each. Then I sit very still and watch a hawk swirl over the fields. I have to get a new life before I go crazy. Sixteen-year-old Morgan lives in a hick town. Her mum was killed in a car accident when she was two, her dad drinks, and her stepmother is a non-entity. Her boyfriend Derek is boring and she can't stop staring at her co-worker Rob's cute butt. Then there's the kiss she shared with her neighbor Tessa. But when Morgan discovers a devastating secret about the one person she completely trusted, her entire world crashes and she must redefine her life and herself. Compelling and complex, "The Sky Always Hears Me" is a fast-paced narrative with raw humour and a heart-wrenching twist.

How high the moon? Sorry to break into a spot of jazz. But it's a relevant question if you're out and about in your woolly socks, bobble hat and cagoule. Not so much how high the moon, of course, but how high am I? How wet will I get? When will it get dark? And how long will it take me to fall back to sea level should I accidentally tumble down this ravine? With this nifty handheld altimeter, one will always have a grip on one's vertical situation. In my case, my cruising altitude is approximately 1.85 metres. Except when I'm on the top deck of the staff bus from the courtesy car park here at Gadgetshop HQ. Then it's more like 5.27 metres. In fact, to call this a mere handheld altimeter is to dumb it down considerably. For, yes, it is a handheld altimeter. But it's also a fiendishly clever digital barometer, compass, temperature gauge, weather forecaster, clock and alarm all in one. In short, a go-anywhere, know-anything little device. Ultra-handy in all manner of challenging situations. Like the Brecon Beacons. And Newcastle on a Saturday night. Specially designed for the great outdoors, this is a device with practicality at heart. So it even comes with a nifty carabiner attachment (in the Offset D configuration) to enable its attachment to one's rucksack or, in extreme situations, one's belly-button ring. Don't try that at home.
