UKHotMovies.com www.UKHotMovies.com

I've been a fan of ukhotmovies.com for many a moon because it tells things as they are. The reviews here are not swayed by being wined and dined by the Hollywood Studios or being sent free branded baseball caps.

I like the fact that ukhotmovies.com has trailers and picture galleries with film reviews.

I also make the effort to enter the competitions. Not won anything yet, but I live in hope as the prizes are amazing!

I have been visiting ukhotmovies.com since about 2002 when it was first launched. Quality reviews and fast-loading trailers.

Love the fact that they change their shopping links to always send visitors to cheapest retailer for any particular DVD or video. They don't have an exclusive contract with any one merchant.

Also, these guys don't maintain a mailing list - so enter their competitions with the security of knowing you will not receive email after email promoting all kinds of junk.

I always enjoy visiting ukhotmovies.com and it's not just because I won a Disney animation box-set in a recent competition!

There used to be loads of good movie sites, especially in the States, but I have got put off them of late. Why? Because they are now plastered full of adverts. There are banners above the review, below the review, left of the review and right of the review - and behind as well! Arrrghhhh!

Also the Yankee sites obviously review flicks from an American perspective. Often their dates are completely out of sync with the UK: films out on DVD across the Atlantic are sometimes just being released in cinemas in the UK.

UKHotMovies.com is the best of the few professional sites we have in Britain. Updated daily, it has hard-hitting reviews of the latest Hollywood and British releases. All the film reviews come with trailers, which I love watchiing!

There are fantastic free-to-enter competitions with prizes such as DVDs, videos, games, posters, cinema tickets and more. Prizes tend to be quite valuable i.e. first prize will be TEN DVDs rather than one or two like most other sites.

UKHotMovies.com will always be a firm favourite for me. The coolest movie site in Britain alongside Film Four's offering.

I have been a regular visitor to ukhotmovies for a couple of years now. From its humble beginnings it has grown to becoming one of the best-designed entertainment sites in the UK. Most other sites seem to be stuck in the pre-Millennium dial-up connection era. Ukhotmovies will probably not be the fastest site in the world if you have a slow dial-up connection, but if you have broadband - which is an essential for visiting broadband sites anyway - ukhotmovies will provide you with a state-of-the-art experience.

Competitions, trailers, reviews, galleries - I enjoy visiting all these sections. And the new box office chart is great too!

UKHotMovies.com is a mini-film portal. As the name suggests, it caters for a British audience (although the 'hot' does not refer to anything saucy!) It has several different sections, including film reviews, features, galleries, and more. Each of these can be easily found.

My favourite section is the interactive. This features polls which are updated every month or so. It's fascinating to know what people have voted for and I visit this section regularly! There are also film polls in the interactive part. These were difficult for me, because I'm not a film nut, but the buffs out there shouldn't have too many problems. Get all the answers right and you have a chance to win huge prizes. And you can also win DVDs, videos, games and books in the monthly competitions. Although I've been entering for six months, I've only won one small prize - a DVD of the new Spider-Man movie - but hopefully I'll win a DVD-Player one day so I have something to play it on! I like the competitions at UKHotMovies.com because they don't add you to any mailing list list most similar sites. Indeed, there is not even a checkbox for you to untick to not be added to their junk mail list. I'm sick of receiving unwanted emails from other companies. You enter a competition and they bombard you with emails promoting so-called 'bargains' and 'goodies' for years to come. So thanks UKHotMovies.com for not maintaining an a mailing list full of 'shopping' links! The links section is not up to much, but there are some useful movie links there.

Overall, I would say UKHotMovies.com is worth visiting from time to time. It's not as big as IMDB or the BBC's film section, but it's got a certain spark which its bigger and better-financed sites lack. UKHotMovies.com is the business!
