Buena Vista Home Entertainment, 2005

AN EXCELLENT & POIGNANT FILM
A very poignant and well-acted story of love and spirit of the soul. Halle Berry and Michael Ealy's love scenes are very sensual, yet tasteful. The supporting actors are well-cast and the cinematography makes you feel that you are there. My only complaint is the intro by producer Oprah Winfrey. She sets the story up referencing some kiss which takes place in the movie. In her best "I'm Oprah ...

Exotic movie
It's good to learn about tribe habits. The movie represents the hyppie ideology of 70's with fidelity. A movie for people who loves Floyd and rare stuff.

Howling II - Your Sister Is a Werewolf

Christopher Lee, Annie McEnroe

MGM (Video & DVD), 2005

COME ON, IT'S NOT THAT BAD
THE HOWLING 2 YOUR SISTER IS A WEREWOLF I still remember the first time I had seen the first Howling movie, and I was thinking "wow this is a pretty good werewolf movie". I had no idea at the time that this series would take a completely new direction with every film that followed. When the sequel came out as much as I liked the first one I did not go to see this one at the theaters. Don't ...

Great for teaching high school ornithology
It's been great for teaching a high school level bird watching class in the middle of winter before the birds get to the North East. Great preparation.

Excellent Bargain! Two for the Price of One!
I bought this DVD for a colleague of mine who was teaching "Their Eyes Were Watching God" in his class. "Beloved" also happens to a favorite book of his as well. The quality is first rate and you're getting two for the price of one if you think about it. "Beloved" was written by the Nobel Prize Winner Toni Morrison and starring Oprah Winfrey while "Their Eyes Were Watching God" written by Zora ...

Watching the Detectives

Cillian Murphy, Lucy Liu

Peace Arch/Genius, 2008

Charming, in a predictable but nicely done way
The basic premise: Neil (Cillian Murphy) owns a small independent video store and lives passively in a world of make believe movies. Violet (Lucy Liu) lives a life of adventure. She would rather do than watch. She stages real life scenarios of situations Neil can hardly imagine. Most of her escapades are well thought out (My favorite being the picnic scene) and leave both the viewer and Neil ...

Hooked on These Hummers
Witty, charming, incredibly informative and fascinating to watch-----these are just a few of the ways I would describe "Hooked on Hummingbirds." The photography is truly amazing, especially the slow-motion scenes. The narration sounds as though it comes straight from a National Geographic program (but with a sense of humor), and the music is perfectly matched with the action. This DVD conveys ...

Roc-a-Fella, 2004

Jigga is too cold...
This DVD is a must for any Jay-Z fan or any fan of hip-hop for that matter. The story itself (based on Jay's own life) is gritty and funny (Jay's always had a good sense of humor-you can tell from his albums) at the same time. The only complaint I have is that the movie/storyline is too short! The last 15-20 minutes of the DVD consist of old music videos (which are cool b/c they show Jay when ...

Lions Gate, 2002

Unforgettable
One of my favorite movies of all time. Viewed it accidentally a few years ago on HBO and HAD to record it. I just sit back and relax and ENJOY it, and refuse to analyze it. Andy Jones is hilarious, Hurt is Hurt and Molly Parker is enchanting. The soundtrack is one of the best I've ever heard....in short...I can't get enough of this movie! But then, I also like Coen Bros. movies, so some would say ...

I Love Toy Trains

TM Books & Video, 2003

Great idea, great video
You have to get this series if you have a train fan in your life. It's just that simple. Aimed at toddlers, it is narrated by a child but it makes it all that much more interesting from their viewpoint. These trains do just about everything and it's neat to hear your toddler's reactions to what is going on. My favorite is when the trains get a bath - I heard all about that one from my little ...

Someone's Watching Me

Lauren Hutton, David Birney

Warner Home Video, 2007

long time favorite
"Someone's Watching Me" is a long time favorite of mine and I'm glad it can now be enjoyed on video. This film is in the very best tradition of a great Hitchcock film. John Carpenter does a superb job with the direction. Lauren Hutton did a more than credible acting job and carries this film from the first scene to the end, as she was in almost every scene. Hutton is an under rated actress, ...

Great viewing for cats too!
Although this DVD is charming for humans, I have found that my kitties love it even more! What a nice treat for indoor cats. My girls stay glued to the screen when this is on.

Hummingbirds, Music by Johann Sebastian Bach

Hummer Sonata
I treasure this film that chronicles charming and heartwarming interactions between momma and baby hummers. The choice of music is quite fitting and humorous at times, which made me laugh whenever "The U.S. Air Force Song" kicked in. It is a lovely film, and my whole family loved it!

DVDs are UNCUT!!!!!!!

Trinity Home Ent, 2004

A Fool and His Money
I saw this film for two reasons. First of all, the plot sounded interesting, and the second reason was Sandra Bullock. The story is about a man who starts a new religion in order to make money. It's a great idea, but it could have been carried out in a better way. As for Sandra Bullock, she only plays a minor role and it's far from her best work. Overall, "A Fool and His Money" is an average ...

The Love God?

Barney Fife does Austin Powers!
If you want some good solid laughs, you've got to see this unexpectedly hilarious movie! On the surface, you'd think that The Love God? is going to be the worst clinker in movie history. The editor of a failing bird magazine falls into the hands of a manipulative smut peddler who turns Peacock Magazine into a sexual revolution Playboy knock-off. However, with a cast of great comedic talents ...

Audubon Video Guide to 505 Birds of North America

Mastervision, 2004

An essential bird watching tool!
The Audubon Society brings together all the elements of field identification in this DVD - each bird species' 30 to 40 second clip includes still photographs, the bird's distinctive call, and a video of its distinguishing behavior - be it flight pattern, tail wagging, or how it moves up and down a tree. This DVD is an essential tool for both the serious and casual bird watcher. The 2 DVD set ...
