YOU'LL GO APE! OVER THE ULTIMATE BOX SET!
Wow! What a set! If you love POTA's Then you gotta have this set! All the films,TV episodes,documentaries and cartoons.....you name it,it's here! all remastered and looking great! It even comes in a very cool Caesar ape's head! The only thing they could have added is the director's cut of "Conquest". This is a must have for the ape fan!

Smallville Season 7
Another great season packed with new surprises however,I don't see the logic behind having an 8th season (not just because Lex & Lana aren't going to be in many episodes next season) because as a former comic book reader/collector, Clark is a bit beyond the age of the comic book heros' departure from the farm to head up to the fortress (?; why did they destroy it?) to hone his powers and become ...

Rescue Me is a natural Leader on Fire!
It doesn't get any better than Rescue Me when it comes to cable television. It kills us to hear that we may have to wait another year now to view season five, due to the strike! Buy the first season and all the rest, you'll be in for many surprises! The drama and comedy mix is brilliantly done! [...]

Brillant transfer to BluRay
Having watched this movie numerous times in the theater and on DVD, I am proud to own the BluRay copy now. I must say they did a BRILLANT job on the transfer. The color is vivid and the sound is truly top notch. Some transfers of older movies aren't that good, but they took their time with this one. The special effects are great but on some scenes you can tell that it is CGI. Minus that the ...

Incredible and Worth Every Penny
*This does contain some minor spoilers. I tried not to spoil too much.* Batman: Gotham Knight is advertised as the missing link between Batman Begins and The Dark Knight. There are six stories in total. Each story is by different artists, but they all link together and flow together nicely. The first story is untitled(that I know of) and envolves a boy waiting for his friends to arrive. ...

Do you feel lucky? Well, do you punk?
Fantastic set, great extras and wonderful transfer of film to DVD. I would recommend this over the Blu Ray release, even if you have a Blu Ray player, as the quality isn't that much better, and it's around 50% cheaper. Go for it! You deserve it! MC White says: Check it out!

Spectacular Film From Finish to Start
This film is pure adrenaline from the moment it opens. I will not rehash the plot of the film, as some other reviews have revealed too much in the way of spoilers already. Solid and enjoyable. Quaid makes his mark and shows that he still has what it takes to be an action/drama hero. I can only guess that the negative reviews came from the pro-war crowd who were expecting the type of ...

Forget how much I liked these movies
It had been YEARS since I had watched the Indiana Jones, but when the new one came out I wanted to watch them again. This was the best deal I found for the price and the picture was great.

suspenseful escapism
Based on many of the reviews and a gradual disaffection for the previous 3 seasons (particularly 5), I waited a long time before finally giving in to curiosity and buying this season. Imagine my surprise then when I found season 6 to be as entertaining, gripping and nearly as emotional as the first two seasons. But even more than that I was delighted to find Season 6 so very fortunately free of ...

An interesting but somewhat sad fantasy story that is good for families, but not small children
I have not read any of the Spiderwick books, so I am only reviewing the movie. While there is plenty of fantasy here for kids to enjoy, some aspects of the way the story is told might leave younger kids a big confused. However, I don't think they will care. What is here is quite delightful and there is something here for everyone to enjoy. Well, unless you dislike fantasy stories. The ...

One of the best series on TV? More like one of the greatest stories ever told.
I'll begin this review as a review of the series, then move on to Season 5 in particular: I have long thought that some of the best stuff on TV can be found among HBO's Original Series. I'm a big fan of some of HBO's better known dramas including Rome and The Sopranos, as well as of some lighter fare such as The Ali G Show and Curb Your Enthusiasm. Strangely, I'd barely even heard of The Wire ...

An interesting idea, but without anyone to cheer for.
I gave this movie an extra star because it is set in Ann Arbor (where I live) and has some footage of Huron High School and the Gallup Park around the Huron River. Yeah, I know it is cheap of me, but I like seeing my home town on the screen. The movie is about David Rice and his ability to teleport (jump) to anywhere in the world (but not through time). He first becomes of this ability when, ...

The Only Man Alive Who Can Survive By Himself And Do It Well
It's always a risk reviewing films that were based on books. Especially the ones that have a huge fan base that the fans really really love. Now, I never read I am legend but Will Smith is an amazing actor and one of the best, so I had to see this. I Am Legend is very simple, it almost even reminds you of Cast Away though there're more people or should I say creatures in this film. Robert ...

Thank God they started over from scratch.
The original batman? Michael Keeton couldn't pull off being a leading man or a toughguy. Nicholson just annoys the living *%$#%@ out of me. Batman returns? Boring, it dragged, didn't hold my interest. And the penguin was just not an interesting enough bad guy. The third one is probably the only one I can stand to watch with both eyes open. It's loud and obnoxious, and it strays too much ...

The Slaves' Rebellion.
The film _10,000 B.C._ (2008) directed by Roland Emmerich is an excellent film set in prehistoric times with a unique and panoramic vision. I think the film is very likely influenced by the writings of fantasy action writer Robert E. Howard and certainly bears resemblance to the Conan films. The film takes place in prehistoric times when mammoths, saber-toothed cats, and giant birds roamed the ...

Purgatory? It's "Like Tottenham"
In Bruges is a delightful little film from the UK featuring Colin Farrell and Brendan Gleeson (you may recall him as Mad-Eye Moody from Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (Widescreen Edition)). By turns laugh out loud funny, poignant, and violent, 'In Bruges' has Farrell (Ray) and Gleeson (Ken) as two hit men sent to Bruges from England after Farrell botches a hit job. Ralph Fiennes ...
