WHAT IF... the Doctor became EVIL? This one has it all...Timelords, Sontarans, Barbarians and the Lord President Doctor.
The premise of "THE INVASION OF TIME" is simple, but genius: WHAT IF... the Doctor became EVIL? "Invasion" is a sequel of sorts to the Doctor's last visit to his homeworld of Gallifrey in "Deadly Assassin" in which the Doctor saves the Timelords from the Master and in doing so becomes the sole surviving candidate in an election to determine the Timelord Presidency. The story opens with the ...

Somewhat Underwhelming
I looked forward to watching this movie with great anticipation. Unfortunately, after viewing it, I felt like I had been cheated. I found the story somewhat difficult to follow, and I had a difficult time with the dialogue. As for the movie's story, D'Leh (Steven Strait) is a young leader in his tribe. Despite his father's betrayal to the tribe years ago, D'Leh has risen to a rank of ...

pure entertainment
well after purchasing a 58"samsung plasma hdtv, and playstation for the blue ray,,, I had to get the 5th element blue ray as my first purchase. Wondering how much of a difference there would be from the std dvd, I can tell you that it is just beyond words. Now enough people have talked about the movie here so I am not going there, and they mention lots of other movies that "may" be better but one ...

The 4400 - The Complete Fourth Season

4400-- too bad it ended...
I worked hard to see this series every week, but when season 4 came to TV it seemed like I was never at home, or it was prempted so I got lost and wondered just what happened. I have all four seasons and watching them back to back--I found things that I missed and loved the commentaries. I would have liked to see four more seasons, but then I wanted four more seasons of StarTrek:Enterprise too... ...

"We use your dead as vessels!"
The Good Things *The Blu-Ray has excellent video quality; easily one of the best transfers ever. The movie is much more colorful than I remember. Very clear, crisp picture. No grain. Even though most of the movie is dark, it looks phenomenally great. The sound quality is great too. *Includes both the theatrical cut and director's cut of the movie. Also has a bunch of special features, ...

If you're a big Beatles fan...
I purchased this documentary on VHS when it first came out (for about $100! ) so that should tell you how I feel about it! If you are a big fan (big- not "moderate" or "casual") you'll eat this up. Besides the early never before heard recordings, photos, performances, and interviews, the stories told by the Beatles and their close associates are just fascinating. And what's great (and pretty ...

Two Movies for the Price of One
One evening in 1973 I was watching reruns of 'Night Gallery' on my 10 inch black and white TV and I began flipping channels during the commercial to see what else was on. On PBS I couldn't believe what I was seeing, PINK FLOYD! I looked at the TV Guide and saw it Pink Floyd Live at Pompeii. Needless to say, I did not go back to my other show and I looked in vain for years for a repeat of the ...

Killer Klowns dish up Killer B
Warning: Spoilers Ahead!* After 70+ reviews you may come to realize we go through many phases during the course of a year. Sometimes we have an appetite for action that can only be quenched by the likes of Seagal or priemer Norris which can last months at a clip. Other times we seek b comedy and sci-fi features. However for the last month we have been all over the world of b horror. We grew up ...

My favorite war movie
Other than the James Bonds, this is my favorite film and my favorite war film. I remember seeing it at my local theater at age 13 in 1963, a year after its first run reserved-seat engagement on Broadway. I watch it every June 6th. and have yet to tire of it. Starring John Wayne, Robert Mitchum, Henry Fonda, Richard Burton and a pre-Dr. No, Sean Connery, among numerous others. (The only film I ...

The War of the Worlds (Special Collector's Edition)

Gene Barry, Ann Robinson

Paramount Pictures, 2005

Powerful, Imaginative, Menacing, and Thrilling
Having recently rewatched this film in the new edition, I must confess I was unprepared for the power and seriousness of this classic adaptation of the HG Wells story. In particular, the presence of religion, both as a bridge to peace and a comfort against the unknown, is very powerfully rendered in striking images -- of the pastor holding the Bible and reciting the Lord's Prayer as he seeks ...

The Thing (Collector's Edition)

Its just about which cover you prefer
I like this cover (the one with the man with no face) better than the other cover (the face covered in snow). Its just a better cover, the other one sucks. Both DVDs are essentially the same. I cant find a deep difference. Just pick the cover that you liek best. Other than that, this is one of the most claustophobic movies you'll ever see. Its really one of the scariest I've seen. Watch it by ...

A Classic that's as Funny in 2008 as in 1966
I bought a DVD of this classic for my mother. She'd never heard about it, and I couldn't imagine missing it! In fact, I became a forever fan of Alan Arkin because of it. It's just as clever and funny as it was when it first came out. The cars are different, the clothes are different, even some of the boats are different -- but people are the same. They're suspicious and friendly, helpful and ...
