For the kids today? YES
I had this vague recollection of a show I watched as a child ... underwater, marionette puppets, submarine, mermaid ... that's all I could remember. Browsing at a used book store I found several Gerry Anderson DVD sets ... then I saw Stingray! (...). Or at least that's what I was thinking. Sure enough it was the show I remembered from my childhood. I was thrilled. Then my son, age 8, ...

Should be required viewing for Americans
This movie was packed with so much research and information, and it went by so quickly, I had to buy this DVD for repeated viewing. It's a few years old now, but the information is still as relevant today as it was then. The American political system created the corporation, and is now basically run by them. This movie is an eye opener for every American, and should be required viewing for ...

SINGLE MOTHER'S OF TEENAGE BOYS NEED TO OWN THIS
I give this movie 5 stars, it holds up as well today as it did when I was a teenager. Now I'm a single Mother to a houseful of boys, including a grandson I'm raising. I'm using it as a warning tool. Best of luck to all the other single Moms out there with troubled boys.

Heaven's Burning
Russell Crowe gives a great acting performance along with the other cast members who I thought were all great. I read 25 other reviews and all I have to say is this is a great well-made movie with wonderful filming and scenery. After seeing the film once I thought it was ok, but after seeing it twice I saw how great it really was. This movie has one man out to kill his wife with little interest ...

A Guide for the Married Man in the 1960's
Although I found Walter Matthau at his "as always" best in the Guide for the Married Man, the role doesn't do him justice. I gave it five stars as a "period piece" of how we lived in the 1960's, or more specifically, how the sexes were perceived during that time period. Fortunately I think our society has moved onward and upward from the the depiction of both sexes in this film. To view ...

One of the best noirs ever!
This is top quality Cagney in one of his best performances. Cody Jarrett is an incredibly mean, messed up piece of work. His ma remains his best friend and worst enemy combined. This is a great film with a class (and justly famous) ending. BTW, the scene in jail when Cagney throws his fit shows some surprised looking cons. They were real prisoners, and didn't know what was going to happen! ...

Gerry Anderson's Marvels
When you watch the Thunderbirds, you must realize this show is forty years old and still holds up. These marriottes are real looking, special effects still hold up after 40 years...and the story lines are intriging So forget that satire Team America and the live action version of the Thunderbirds, get this..maybe those kids who crave SF adventure can enjoy this complex story lines, rather than ...

Baz Luhrmann's "Australia"....NOT!
I had just about abandoned all hope that this marvelous 1978 sleeper from Australian writer-director Fred Schepisi would ever see the light of day on DVD, until I was pleasantly surprised to see it pop up on the "new release" rack of my favorite neighborhood independent video store last month (I quickly snapped up the last copy). Adapted from Thomas Keneally's novel (which was inspired by true ...

Beautiful..... Except for one major thing....
I posted a review before this DVD was released, because I had seen the Australian version and had assumed they would keep it intact. Hence the 5 star rating. Now that I have seen the US version, I can't change the 5 star rating, but I can edit my review.... Why? The region 4 (Australian) After the Deluge is an additional hour and a half long. It originally aired on TV as a mini-series in ...

A Little Beauty
I have to admit, this movie really gave me the Creepy-Crawly's! The fine line between reality & fantasy comes across quite well, in this spooky little thriller. If you like tales about cats, sailing the high seas, ghosts, a bit of romance; and in the end the heroine prevails(good on her!)it's worth a squizz! There's some good special effects too - very entertaining!

Although made in the 60's for TV, nothing can compare!
I dare you to find another made for TV show that could stand up against these DVD sets! When watching, you must let go of all the special effects that Speilburg and Lucas have spoiled us with and you must also realize each episode had a budget that would not support three minutes of film by today's standards. All that taken into account, these are cleverly written stories, well executed with ...

Thunderbirds, with more storyline
Another wonderful outing with International Rescue! I notice that these episodes often feature more depth and variety in the storyline, which adds to their repeat-watching appeal. You really get the feeling that the writers were getting into their stride with the series and broadening it to a spy/rescue show (using ever-cool Lady Penelope). And, for those who are already fans, I'm pleased to ...

A high price to pay for 3 episodes
the last three episodes of this series are available on this 2 disk set. The episodes are great...especially "Ricochet" a very humorous episode about a pirate radio station (not a television station as described on the box) occupied by 2 poor chaps who never thought to relay their broadcasts through a satellite reciever, they live in space to send out there broadcasts, living on the cold cereal ...

Fox Lorber, 1999

Don's Party
Biting, unvarnished look at the state of affairs between the sexes, made no clearer or more encouraging when fueled by booze. Beresford's gift for highly personal, intimate film-making makes us flies on the wall, and what we see unfold is at once comically human and undeniably sad. A revealing, astute ensemble piece that makes you think. This wild party's worth attending

ThunderBirds - Sets 3 & 4
I think that this is the best way to view the ThunderBirds series, as you get the best picture and sound, I think that there could have been more of a making of ThunderBirds than there was included on the first two DVD sets ( Sets 1 & 2). I noticed that at the start of a couple of the episodes in these DVDs that at the start of countdown that opens each episode that the Audio level of the voice ...

One Soldier's Faith
There is one aspect of this movie that I haven't seen mentioned anywhere, and I am surprised because it really is central to the story. This movie shows only one Japanese soldier who was executed as a result of the trial. (There were actually six executed by the time the trials were over; 85 went free.) What is interesting about the man who was executed is that he was a Christian, a Roman ...

FAB - naturally
Yes, yes, yes ... dunderklumpen Parker is tripping all over his cockney vowels and Tintin (the non-francophone version) is demurely aiding (wink, wink) Alan, but how can you resist a world where technology is always fallible (planes exploding, reactors exploding, grandma exploding - just kidding) yet can only be saved by the same, now infallible, technology. A feature film with non-stringy actors ...
