Both films being a fantastic nautical adventure especially "Master and Commander" I ...             Horatio Hornblower Retribution1 review The film was great, the price ... The film arrived in a timely manner and in perfect condition, but we were disappointed to see that the original price sticker was still on the film (hah!), making us feel a little silly for paying quite a bit more than a 100% mark-up. Yipes! Still, we are glad to have a difficult to find film.             Longitude48 reviews Jonathan Coy, Christopher Hodsol A&E Home Video, 2000 LONGITUDE A STORY OF TIME The DVD was delivered overseas, on time, and in good order.
