High caliber thriller!
Desire and seduction, murder and cover up, scandal and intrigue, half truths and false promises of patriotism; where the duty lies beyond the flatter and the appearance must become a politically correct matter. In this sense this Neo Noir Film transcends the anecdote in a very linked similar profile with classics of the genre such as Pick Up on South Street or Kiss me deadly where the personal ...

"Some of your best friends are Methodists, too, but you never seem to mention that."
Do you, as do I, have to fight an urge to run for cover when the term "message movie" crops up? Not to worry, because in this case GENTLEMAN'S AGREEMENT (1947) is a fine movie with a great cast, excellent pacing, and just enough wit and verve to highlight its headon treatment of post-World War Two anti-semitism. Gregory Peck plays Philip Green, writer for a NEWSWEEK-type weekly magazine, ...

Better than I even remember
One more t.v. series I came across while looking on Amazon that I added to my Wish List and received as a birthday present. I was skeptical of my taste in the early 90s vs. today. I remember thinking it was a kind of a newer, maybe shallower Miami Vice-style, that was pretty risqué for regular cable t.v. I used to watch it sporadically on USA late at night, but probably never saw two episodes ...

Colt .45/Tall Man Riding/Fort Worth
If you like the Randolph Scott/Bud Boetticher western series (I wonder if the 6(?) remaining collaborations, besides "7 Men From Now", will ever be released?), you will like these well written western dvds. Made from outstanding source materials, the dvd picture quality is excellent. No, Boetticher did not direct any of these three films but they do have the adult attitude of those Scott ...

He ate all my sturgeon, clever man...
This film on Russian history is everything Zhivago is not - it's good. Though it takes the Lean-esque line of poetic cuts to meld the story together, it does it in a far subtler, less "here's another clever cut for you audience" fashion. Young's cinematography dwarfs what he was not able to do in Zhivago (because Lean wanted his film to be deliberately ugly) and there is a far more Russian feel ...

Fear of a Chappelle Planet
Dave Chappelle is the most talented comedian we have out of the current generation being groomed for stardom. Now I know what those that aren't familiar with the comedic ranks will say something like, "Well I've heard so many great things about this Dane Cook guy." Well that's your first mistake, comparing Dane Cook to a comedian (Cook's well known for plagiarism, just ask Robin Williams. ...

Captain Marvel takes no prisoners!
The Adventures of Captain Marvel is an outstanding example of the magic the old serials could produce. No wonder folks used to go to the movies every week like clockwork. Captain Marvel produces real thrills 67 years after its release. The masterful direction and editing of these 12 chapters, supplied by the kings of serials William Witney and John English, don't have an ounce of fat or dead ...

recommended only for intelligent adults! mind blowing brilliant!!!
This was one of George's last great wake up calls to a lazy and stupid American public that allows the crooked , powerful and few to loot our national treasure, abuse the poor, and kill our children. This isnt the hippy dippy weatherman of his earlier days nor is it the very funny things we all have in common of Brian Regan or Jerry Seinfeld...this is a LION IN WINTER!!! George ...

Onegin, DVD Film
I ordered "Onegin" a film placed on DVD. This movie was beautifully photographed in St. Petersburg, Russia and its surrounding countryside. Starring Ralph Fiennes and Liv Tyler, this film was a romance quite unlike any love story anyone has viewed. Originally, the novel was written by Alexander Pushkin and then transferred into an Opera composed by Pyotr llych Tchaikovsky. It's now in beautiful ...

Seriously, I'm waiting for the sequel.
This movie is wonderful. First off, if you don't know the joy of John Barrowman yet, you are in for a treat. The pure exuberance of his acting, the happiness with which he delivers what has got to be the worst pick up line in the history of the universe, and the fact that he has sexual chemistry with everyone in the movie (EVERYONE), except the girl he's supposed to be hooking up with makes ...

Silk Stalkings-Season 3
This series continues to get better and better. One of your reviewers commented he or she thought season 3 was weaker than the previous seasons, but I respectfully disagree. The relationship between the two main characters seems to be getting stronger than ever, with a few bumps and bruises of course. The writing is up to par with previous seasons, I think. Look, this show will not go down as one ...

What you think of this movie will depend on who you are
If you're a kid or a parent looking for the sequel to Roger Rabbit, this isn't it. It's not intended to be family friendly, and you shouldn't assume that every animated or live-action-plus-animation feature is child-oriented. This particular piece is oriented toward older teens and people in their 20's and 30's. It's not porn, like Fritz the Cat, and it's not an extended-length music video, like ...

Why Are We Here?
A Snoodle's Tale is quite possibly my all-time favorite Veggie Tales story. The scene begins in a "Dr. Suess like" setting. Colorful and bright with many unique characters. When the newest snoodle arrives in town, the others find all the weaknesses in the little one. Quickly becoming discouraged, he searches for his purpose. Finally on the mountain top he discovers why he was created. The ...

"What's the point of owning a mace, if you don't use it?" - playwright Sidney Bruhl (Michael Caine) in DEATHTRAP ...You'll stop laughing only long enough to gasp in surprise. The stars are terrific. The atmosphere is thick. The sets are marvelous. The score is wonderful and story is to die for! The only thing missing is a special edition (that is anamorphic widescreen) with a running ...
