Whisper Of The Heart on blu-ray

 Whisper Of The Heart
(8/10) review by Sarah Ash

Shizuku Tsukishima (Youko Honna/ Brittany Snow) and her best friend Yuuko (Maiko Yoshiyama/ Ashley Tisdale) are working on an alternate version of the classic John Denver song that they can sing for their upcoming graduation ceremony to mark the end of junior high school.

Sean Connery wasn't in Moonraker - the James Bond escapade with the fleet of space shuttles. That was Roger Moore. And Connery's track-record in genre movies is uneven at best. Zardoz (1974) was a very strange movie indeed with its giant flying head, and topless nipple-count fashion-sense. He was a solid presence as Allan Quatermain in The League Of Extraordinary Gentlemen (2003), and in the first and best Highlander (1986). But, then again, Outland is barely SF at all...
