Synopsis
The 1960s feature length adventures for the super-stringed Supermarionettes of International Rescue. In THUNDERBIRDS ARE GO, the first big-screen outing, International Rescue are sent to guard the second launch of Zero-X on its mission to Mars--the first attempt was disastrously sabotaged. Only when Zero-X becomes damaged in space it appears to be on a collision course for Earth! With a bigger budget, THUNDERBIRD 6 sees Lady penelope and members of the rescue team aboard Brains' prestigious antigravity Skyship One on its maiden flight. But the crew have been replaced by terrorists who want to destroy International Rescue!

Good family entertainment4
Our two sons (4 & 2) really enjoyed this. They have been making Zero X and Thunderbird 4 with their Brio ever since. The 4 year old keeps wanting to know what number Thunderbird the "Thunderbird Boys" are in. Mum and Dad loved it too - it took us back to our own childhood. We were both amazed with the quality of the special effects, they stood the test of time well. Story was perhaps a bit slow for today's generation but it was wonderful to have a story that really was family fun. The Cliff Richard and the Shadows dream sequence made us smile!!! Enjoy!

2 great movies4
If you like the Thunderbirds series, then you'll love these 2 films. The action takes a little while to unfold, but when it does you realise that, apart from the longer length and the higher quality of filming and special effects, the films are no different to the original TV programmes - and that's exactly why they are so wonderful.

The 'Featurette' extras on the DVD are an interesting insight into how each film was made, although not really essential. The 'Quiz' on each DVD are for the much younger viewers and the other extras are patchy, but this is a minor gripe as you're buying the DVD for 2 great, and fun, movies.

Pure enjoyment5
How awesome to enjoy these two fabulous movies, with interesting extras !
I am amazed that this boxset is so cheap, considering its quality.
Jump on it!
