Blockbuster Reviews

Sainsbury/Nectar sent me a special Blockbuster offer. I applied for FREE 1 months rental of 8 DVDs but when I had signed up the page informed me I had used up all my rentals. I emailed them back immediately, cancelling and got an automatic reply. Now they have taken £14.99 from my credit card and are refusing to pay it back!! Their ...  Read the complete review

Blockbuster video is the most over hyped and the monopoly in video/game rental market that sadly exists in our high streets. This chain of stores from uncle ben's land has the most unfriendly policies for membership when you move homes. Your membership goes invalid if you do not rent for 1 year or more and then you will have to go through ...  Read the complete review

Blockbuster video, another faceless company which is slowly monopolising a service throughout the land. I never used blockbuster until a little while ago. There used to be a smallish video rental place called Universal video just down the road from me. This used to have loads of films, all the new hollywood billion dollar movies, and all the small ...  Read the complete review

Basically, you know what Blockbusters is all about. You have read the other opinions and know how a video rental shop works. I would like to bring your attention to the fact that since late August Blockbuster's are not stocking Warner Brother titles. So far, if you head down on a Saturday evening you will have been unable to find ...  Read the complete review

Am I the only person who thinks BlockBusters suck? They have a terrible range of movies, and about 500 copies of each! If you don't like what's just come off circuit, you're in trouble, because there's hardly anything else to choose. At my local branch in North London, the staff are extremely rude and cannot wait to get out ...  Read the complete review

I am always suspicious of large corporations and conglomerates that corner the market in their particular product. I am not sure if they are giving value for money, quality, service or choice because there comes a point when there is little or no competition. This I have found to be the case with Blockbuster. I live in a small town ...  Read the complete review

Yes the great blockbusters. What a shop What a selection.....What free rentals. Yes another famous freebee yes Blockbuster say that if you can find a copy of the advertised rental you can rent it free the next day so try 22.55 Saturday night or 10.10 sunday morning It's the best time to find all the new rentals out, why pay ...  Read the complete review

I have been a member of blockbuster video for a number of years now and have always found the quality of their service to be excellent. One one of the great things about blockbuster is the massive choice of videos and now dvd;s they have . Can you still remember what those old video shops used to be like if they had four ...  Read the complete review

You might see a sudden surge in film opinions from me over the coming weeks - I successfully bid for a year’s worth of Blockbusters rentals on the crème egg website a few days ago, you see. I’ve always been a massive fan of Blockbusters, but I’ve tended to focus my attention more to the Games section than anywhere else, being a ...  Read the complete review

Our Blockbusters is like an old boxing champion that’s its dated, sweaty and smelly with what looks like an old blood stain on the carpet from the last cash till robbery. Videos are being squeezed to make way for DVDs for whom only one in ten people have a player. Playstation and Nintendo are also surprisingly being crammed into the ...  Read the complete review

I've read nothing but glowing praise on Dooyoo for Blockbuster, which surprised me as Blockbuster is probably the worst store for DVD rentals. Maybe the Dooyoo members writing these Op's don't rent DVD's? I don't own a video player, I got rid of mine 2 years ago and got a decent DVD player. I buy plenty of DVD's, ...  Read the complete review

Greeting earthlings. My name is Melanie and i am an employee at Blockbuster Videos. I am often called to work at ungodly hours and smile to everyone for at least 7 hours non-stop. This is my op helping all you poor customers who are lost around the store because there are no employees awake enough to help. Please grab yourselves some popcorn ...  Read the complete review

Block Buster video is one of the largest video/DVD hire shop around, and in my opinion it deserves it. Blockbuster offers a massive selection of new releases and classics; it has all the DVD's, videos and console games that you would ever want to hire. WHAT ARE THE PRICES LIKE? Prices in blockbuster are fair in my ...  Read the complete review

Blockbuster video has to be a life saver. With one in just about every city in the country. If theres nothing on TV then this has to be the place to go to. The shops are normally huge and have a lot of choice. They always have what your lokking for. The shop is split up into catagories. With new release going round the wall of ...  Read the complete review

Everytime I have been to blockbuster they have always had the film I want. They must buy a lot of videos as they always have lots of copies of the same film in. There is a big problem though, they charge £3.50 each video which I think is a lot to see the film when you can go and see it on the big screen for the same price! I ...  Read the complete review

Blockbuster must be the best know video rental shop around – well it is in Cornwall anyway. There isn’t much competition. What’s good about Blockbuster is that they usually always have the film in stock that you want to see. They get quite a few copies of the new releases. They also rent Playstation and Dreamcast ...  Read the complete review

I rent videos regularlly and have tried mnay video shops and have found blockbuster to be the best my miles. I have also rented videos from choices, and many other smaller independent stores and they provide no competition for the massive blockbuster. Of course they come from the states and have huge market powers over here and there now. ...  Read the complete review

I've been using blockbuster video for a few years now, and they provide a good service. Although £3.50 is alot of money to rent a video, they have recently brought out a new loyalty card. They give you a credit-card sized loyalty card, and for every video you rent they punch a hold in the card. For every 3 videos that you rent, you ...  Read the complete review

Blockbuster Video used to provide a fairly good service. Alright it was a little over priced, but they had a fairly good selection of films, good choice of extras (popcorn, soft drinks etc.) and the staff were by no means the least helpful or friendly of all shop assistants. However, then someone in management decided it would be a good idea ...  Read the complete review
