Both F/X films in high definition in this double pack. F/X - Special effects expert Rollie Tyler (Bryan Brown) is widely acknowledged as the best in the business. Hired by the Justice Department to fake the death of Mafia boss-turned-informant Nicholas DeFranco, Rollie pulls the job off without a hitch. However, when the Mafioso kingpin goes missing for real, it is the SFX man who is collared for his murder. On the run from both the police and the mob, Rollie now has to rely on his skills of deception in order to survive. F/X 2 - Follow-on from the 1986 film 'FX - Murder by Illusion' in which Tyler (Bryan Brown) is now semi-retired. However, his girlfriend s ex-husband talks him out of the quiet life after five years and into taking part in a police-sting operation. When the latter is murdered, Tyler investigates; with the help of his old police partner (Brian Dennehy) and soon they are trapped in a dangerous web of murder, treachery and deceit.

A classic set of films that showcase why the eighties was such a great decade, not just for music but for cinema as well.

FX 1 A DECENT FILM / FX2 NOT AS GOOD
I have nothing bad to say about the first film in this set. the first film though a little silly is a darn good entertaining watch, with no dull moments to mention. The second film however is a total joke and ruined primarily by one STUPID prop. A supposed robotic clown toy that is controlled by wearing a suit that copies any move you make once in the suit. As soon as The wasted Rachael Ticotin character Kim, puts on the suit & it starts to move, it is 100% clear it is a person in this clown suit. When Kim moves her head, hands & feet the clown toy copies even thous no electronic part of the device is conected to these parts. Then later in the movie this whole "Toy" is used to fight a henchmen. Utter bull leavings. The film is ruined by it's tone not knowing weather it is a comedy or a straight out thriller. You have scenes of people being assasinated mixed with the inept antics of a henchman who gets abused much like a home alone robber, this time in a supermarket with tricks being pulled left write & centre. including him pouring maple syrup over his burning feet.The movie is watchables as a waste of time but against the first film this is pure dross.
