The Backyardigans: Escape from Fairytale Village

Backyardigans:Escape from Fairytale Village
My son, who is 5 years old, has always loved the Backyardigans and this one is a winner. It has a lot of fun action and very entertaining dancing. My daughter, who is his twin, also gets caught up in the singing and dancing. The children put on a show themselves. Then they will act out the episodes after watching the dvd. It's so much fun to watch them. I'm hoping a Backyardigan Christmas dvd ...

Hud

Paul Newman, Melvyn Douglas

Paramount Pictures, 2003

You're a sociopath, Hud
"Hud" is one of Newman's greatest movies but, interestingly, I find his father, the old man, more compelling. Hud, as his old father notes, has his share of charm and even guts but he has no soul. He doesn't care. He doesn't care about people and lives only for himself. He uses others, especially women, but ultimately he is his own worst enemy and his reward is a emptiness. Initially, ...

WOW!
My children have been raving about this movie and after I saw it, I could see why they are Brown Coat Fans. I guess I'm one now, too!

Much better than expected
3:10 to Yuma (Widescreen Edition) When I saw the original movie, I was really impressed with Glen Ford's protrayal. But this latest edition is equally well done. The ending was off the chain.

Great movie now on Blu-Ray
I watched Firefly when it was on TV and own the DVD set so I was excited about the movie and had high expectations. Those expectations were met, even if they werent exceeded. I want to make this review for people who are not familiar with the show. It helps if you're a science fiction fan, but it's not required. Essentially Serenity is a space opera that blends the setting of the old west with ...

Blazing Saddles (30th Anniversary Special Edition)

Richard Collier, Carol DeLuise

Warner Home Video, 2004

classic comedy
Blazing Saddles is such a classic. From "candygram for Mongo!" to "it's twoo! it's twoo!" it's nonstop laughs. To save money, the railroad needs to go through the town of Rock Ridge, and governor's right-hand man, Hedley--not Hedy!--Lamarr (Harvey Kormann) come up with a solution to get the residents to leave: hire a black sheriff (Cleavon Little). When Bart (Little) gets to his office, he ...

Director's Cut "A Western's Western!"
Tombstone - The Director's Cut (Vista Series) As opposed to the DVD Tombstone which is a single DVD cased in a black box contianer, the "Director's Cut" provides us with a wonderful "Silhouette-Beige" Earthtone - Double-folding Jacket which contains two (2) DVD's. Wow! Next, this double-folding jacket slides into a TOMBSTONE color-portfolio box! The earthtone colors are simply amazing to view; I ...

Back to the Future - The Complete Trilogy (Widescreen Edition)

515 reviews
Michael J. Fox, Christopher Lloyd

Universal Studios, 2005

I love this movie!
Back to the future is my favorite movie of all time. From beginning to end it is so beautifully executed. Top notch directing, acting and editing with a score to rival "Star Wars". A sweet film the whole family can enjoy, they don't make'em like this anymore. The sequel's were fun too, but this puppy is lighting in a bottle!

Great mini-series, lots of history, great characters and beautiful scenery. The last episode was a little preachy but hey, it was the 70's

Robin Hood (Most Wanted Edition)

Listen to Peter Ustinov!
My kids and I find the movie very entertaining and charming -- 3-year-old Martin wants this movie and only this movie no matter the myriad alternatives we offer. I remember growing up with the soundtrack playing all the time on LP, so I have a fond place in my heart for it. But, having seen it more time than I care to count, I still cannot get enough of Peter Ustinov's voice ...

The films have been detailed elsewhere. "RIDE LONESOME," ...

Marx Brothers Collection
This is a great collection of the Marx Brothers movies. I bought this collection because it contained a number of movies I had not seen. It was worth the price, because I enjoy their movies. It was a decent transfer onto the dvd format.

Extremely funny and enjoyed it immensely. Sadly this comedy series only ran for two seasons. I purchase the second season, and now definitely will purchase the first season also.
