Why Imperialism
A very good action, war story;this film has it all - glorius scenery,great musical sound track, deep look into the human condition. There are rousing battle scenes and tender moments of comraderie.It is an excellent look into the Victorian emperialistic world.

Poignant, Moving Story
A beautifully acted and produced movie. I highly recommend it for the quality and the story. I've got a library of 150 books on the Holocaust, and about 20 movies, and this one is definitely one of my favorites.

The Rocket
The Rocket was a great depiction of what it's like being a French Canadian and the discrimination that went with that. He was a great hockey player who had to overcome prejudice and jeering because his English wasn't very good. There are fine hockey moments depicted in this film and it's a must see for all hockey fans. Very well written and very well performed.

Interesting documentary
Michael Moore went on a 60 city tour before the 2004 election in an attempt to get a greater voter turnout. His methods of giving speeches to the youth at college campuses worked as it generated debate on the media and got people discussing the issues of the election. Moore has a good sense of humour and his way of expressing himself is original and thoughtful. A good documentary.

A strange and beautiful movie
The Dreamers is a very unusual movie, telling the story of a pair of French twins, Isabelle and Theo (Eva Green & Louis Garrel), who invite an American student, Matthew (Michael Pitt) to stay with them in their Paris apartment. Attracted to them first by a shared interest in the cinema, Matthew is soon drawn into the twins' incestuous relationship. To gain a full appreciation of the movie, ...

why but this now??
I watched this when it was live on TV, and when I saw the commercial that this was being released on DVD, the only thought I had was: Why buy this now when it will more than likely be included in the Season Seven boxset when it is released?? If it isn't I can buy it then and without having to worry about paying for the same thing twice.

The mundane beginning of the holocaust
This film takes place in one place only and with a limited set of characters. It revolves around the Wannsee Conference, a meeting held at the highest levels of the German government and the Nazi Party. The conference brings together lawyers, technocrats, military (SS), and bureaucrats who, after being skillfully guided by Reichsprotector Reinhard Heydrich, set the stage for the mass ...

A beautiful movie, by the genius of our time.
Do the right thing is amazing!!! As we all know it is the tale of race relations in America, set in Brooklyn in the Bedford-Stuyvesant community. This movie glows as it shows the racial tension that still goes on today. Lee shows that as diverse as America is, instead of diplomatically talking out our differences, we fear what we do not understand and as minorities fight ourselves, while (some) ...

Holocaust DVD Review
I first saw this series as a 9 year old on TV in 1979 and I really loved it back than. At that age, most of the ideas of the series went straight over my head. I have seen the series on DVD in 2008 and this is really awesome. It's really worth watching. And also serves as a really good example of history coming to life on TV too. Another thing. On TV, this series ran for 9.5 hours. On DVD (and ...

IN THE GLADES WITH COOP & THE SEMINOLES
Saw this film in the 50s when I was growing up and just had to have the DVD. Just finished watching it again for the umpteenth time and it seems that it gets better with each watching. The technicolor is still very good and the acting is equally good. Coop was at least middle aged in this one but he holds up well, and Arthur Hunnicutt does his normal great job. I give the movie a full 5-stars ...

The French "Do the right thing"
A film that created massive controversy when it first came out (When it was shown the local police turned their backs on the cast as protest) This film is something of a French answer to the Spike Lee film "Do the right thing." Set in a Paris suburb a young man is in hospital suffering from serious injury inflicted during a riot the night before. Three young men, one a white Jew, the other an ...

Fantastic
I loved this movie. If you're a fan of Thrillers like The Great Escape and Escape from Alcatraz, then you should buy this. It is so sad to see what people actually went through and in the end you heave a sigh of relief and feel a lot of joy to finally see how they escaped. In today's world, given the same situation, we would not survive even for a day; but those men and women had guts and hunger ...

WW II Poland as it was.
A very realistic, non-hyped version of the phenominal courage of a people who fought to their death against all odds. Inspiring, informative, exausting. I will watch it many times.

The War Between Heaven and Hell Rages On...
During the mid-nineties, Dimension Films produced a small, yet entertaining franchise of films based on a supposed 23rd chapter in the book of Revelation, this series was known as `The Prophecy'. Focusing on a second war in Heaven, this one being waged by those angels that had once been loyal to God during Satan's revolt, but after seeing the evil humanity is capable of exacting on itself, and ...

The Grey Zone
I had been seeking this movie for quite some time. I had been told by several outlets that the movie was no longer available. I looked it up on Amazon.com and was able to find the product. It was purchased and received in a very timely manner. The movie was what I had expected and I could not be more satisfied.

Wayne at his BEST!
I have to admit it. John Wayne made a LOT of "generic" westerns. This hides the fact that he really DID provide some STELLAR performances. And this is one of them. ALLEGHENY UPRISING, Stagecoach, The Searchers, Back To Bataan and True Grit are ALL John Wayne at his best. He got the Oscar for Best Actor in "True Grit" but he deserved it more for his performance in "The Searchers." a ...

All Catholics should watch this DVD
This film, in the framework of World War II, helps Catholics understand the silence of many local church leaders on injustices happening right now. Consider the Iraq War. John Paul II and Benedict XVI made multiple powerful statements that the Iraq War is unjust. Nonetheless, many Catholics are unaware of this in the US as US church leaders fear losing memberships and even student enrollments as ...
