An excellent movie!
It keeps you captured from the beginning to the end. THe actors really make this movie. You can feel the frustrations that Helen has with her handicaps and how Anne deals with her is just what she needed.

Human Nature

Patricia Arquette, Rhys Ifans

New Line Home Entertainment, 2004

Are we moving forward or backward?
Males outwardly act to build a "civilization" based on repressing urges, secretly yearn to return to nature, yet ultimately do whatever it takes to bag some tail. Best line: "As you say in the vernacular, I want me some of that." Females fight against nature tooth-and-nail (think cosmetics industry), and ultimately "sell their soul" to land a relationship (and the requisite baby). Sounds ...

Hilarious, Unconventional Look At Growing up In A Small Town
Desperate to leave the dreary confines of Cape Breton, Nova Scotia, loner Moonie Pottie (Liane Balaban) seeks help from a teacher Mr. Sweeney (brilliantly played by Andrew McCarthy). A supportive (thought slightly lecherous) friend, he helps her win a scholarship to a school in New York City. Unfortunately, Moonie's strict Irish Catholic parents will hear nothing of their 15 year old daughter ...

Blonde
This was a truly amazing movie about Marilyn Monroe. I had seen the movie on Lifetime Movie Network and loved it. I looked everywhere for the movie and was thrilled when I found it on Amazon. Poppy Montgomery does an outstanding portrayal of Marilyn Monroe. The movie was a bit long but well worth it. I don't know how anyone could watch this movie and not fall in love with Marilyn Monroe. ...

A Good Bad Movie
CHUD is a classic good, bad movie. If you can stand the long-winded dialogue during the beginning scenes, it's worth it. The acting is actually pretty good. Stick this one out.....then next time you head a "CHUD" reference you won't be out of the loop.

Platinum Disc, 2005

3 hours of great entertainment!
This movie keep's you guessing from start to finish. There are enough twists and turns along the way and for 3 hours of quality entertainment, this is great value for money. I totally recommend this movie. You will not be dissapointed. And, if you like Brain Dennehy, this will be one of your favourties.

Pieces of April

Katie Holmes, Derek Luke

MGM (Video & DVD), 2004

There's a little piece of me in this film; maybe that's why I love it so much...
I tell you one thing; a movie about a girl baking a turkey does not sound like it's going to be interesting or even remotely entertaining. In fact, to be completely honest the only reason I was interested in seeing `Pieces of April' was because I had a huge crush on Katie Holmes for a while (that was before she went cuckoo for Cruise puffs) and it really wasn't until Patricia Clarkson got the ...

Review of "In Country"
I have viewed the film,"In Country," and have read the book by Bobbie Ann Mason on which it is based. The film is an accurate and moving adaptation of the novel. The period of the Vietnamese War comes alive on screen as it was lived by the soldiers and as it affected the families on the homefront. Bruce Willis and Emily Lloyd are agonizingly effective as two Kentuckians caught up the war. The ...

Tim "The Toolman" Taylor--vers. 6.0
This is Tim "The Toolman" Taylor, version 6.0, or at least the Complete Sixth Season. Good wholesome American humor. The Taylor clan (read: cast) are legitimately funny. Definition of Family Entertainment: Home Improvement, the television series!

Ulee's Gold

Peter Fonda, Patricia Richardson

MGM (Video & DVD), 1999

Good as Gold
Fonda delivers here as an understated everyman hero. Why is Ulee the way he is? This is a believable story and not stock at all. Fantastic supporting cast. Patricia Richardson from "Home Improvement" shows she is not a 2nd bannana. Besides, you will gain a ton of information on the honeybee business.

Live / Artisan, 2001

I REALLY enjoyed the film
I'm a fan of noir in general and of comic noir in particular, so it won't surprise you that I REALLY enjoyed the film. Im fact, I really can't think of any recent direct-to-video release that I've liked more. I rented the video on a flier, mostly because of the cast. The core of the film is the plot twists, which work exceptionally well - I had to stop the video twice (when the wife is shot and ...

Brandon Maggart, Jeffrey DeMunn

Troma Team Video, 2000

Such a sweet movie.
I actually really loved this movie. I was expecting a slasher film along the lines of "Silent Night Deadly Night" but this was so much better. It's not one of those films you can describe easily, you should just watch it and enjoy! The extras are okay. The John Waters commentary is actually really disappointing.

Steve Martini's: Undue Influence with Bonus DVD: Shadow of a Doubt
Possibly the most sleep-inducing movie made from a book ever made. The book was very good, The movie had a cheap and uninteresting look to it. Made as a television mini-series, the movie highlights much of the side story (character-building stuff in the book, cardboard sentiment in the movie) to the detriment of the main story. The result is very boring.

Fall and Resurrection
I have never owned a movie of Tavener but I think this is a great start.The movie has captured Taveners spirituality and some times it seems like you can almost paint a picture of his "IKONS" using only the music and his ears.I really recommend this video for anyone who likes Taveners style.

comedy
Granted, not everyone will like this movie, especially if they are looking for over-the-top comedy like that of RV. I found it very entertaining, perhaps because I live in Nebraska and have experienced these attitudes and behaviors. Yes, Foley is a bit bland and Thompson ascerbic and the inability to leave the city ridiculous, but the rest works for me. Loved the kids, the relatives and the ...

Raymond Massey, Edward Chapman

Legend, 2006

One of sci-fi's most underrated movies.
It's a great movie and like the best sci-fi it has a solid story to complement the special effects, it's a prophetic story even anticipating WWII, and giving a social critique about man's relationship with technology and where ourfuture might lead us, solid acting, good story, but bear in mind that it's from an era before CGI and in the infancy of big budgets and special effects.

Pretty Fine For A Made-For-TV Movie
Not being much of an aficiando of this made-for-TV genre of disaster film, I was pleasantly surprised by this DVD, bought at a recommendation from a friend. The premise is clever and even somewhat plausible: The Black Death---alias the bubonic plague---resurfaces in the modern world in New York City. By the time the pathogen is identified, several cases have already erupted and the city's ...
