Louise Fletcher, Victoria Tennant

Starz / Anchor Bay, 2001

WE GET IT... NOW GIVE IT A REST!!!
Ok, now I understand that alot of the people who read the book first and then watched the movie were dissapointed; as the movie was not like the book at all. That being said, the movie is what made me want to read the book. I'll be the first to say that the book and ...

Notes on a Scandal

Judi Dench, Cate Blanchett

20th Century Fox, 2007

Tightly Wound
With today's spate of teacher/student sex scandals, this one feeds the appetite to understand how these things happen. You'll hate Judy Dench, but her acting is top-notch. The plot has a nice twist, not well concealed. The 'romances,' both of them, are not especially ...

Where the Red Fern Grows

Joseph Ashton, Dabney Coleman

Walt Disney Video, 2004

Family Favorite
This version of Where The Red Fern Grows is much more like the book than the older version. It shows more of the hard work and determined effort that went into getting the dogs. The whole family loves it, it was a tear jerker too, because we recently lost our Little ...

Idiocracy

Luke Wilson, Maya Rudolph

20th Century Fox, 2007

It's got electrolytes
Wow! Great movie. This is the greatest horror movie I have ever watched in my life. It shows that nightmares can become real. All you have to do is to open the eyes to what is around you. It is scary. We do not have to wait 500 years for it to happen. It is ...

Hellraiser

Andrew Robinson, Clare Higgins

Starz / Anchor Bay, 2000

The box...YOU opened it, WE came!!!
"Hellraiser", directed by Clive Barker, is an amazing sort of fantasy/monster-horror crossover movie that has the creativity and professionally written touch to both: A: Make its own set of rules, and B: Not only abide by them, but still prove to be a twisted movie! ...

Kate & Leopold

Meg Ryan, Hugh Jackman

Miramax, 2002

Cute, Clean, and Classy!!!
I must say, this is a fabulous romantic comedy. It's flirty and fun, while still maintaining a level of class. Despite have a time-loopy premise to it, the primary focus is on chivalry and the timelessness of 'classic romance'. Another great quality of the film is that ...

Cassandra's Dream

Ewan McGregor, Colin Farrell

Weinstein Company, 2008

Cassandra's Nightmare
Colin Farrell and Ewan MacGregor turn in stellar performances as brothers in "Cassandra's Dream," a stark tragedy which demands that its protagonists choose between loyalty to family and the right thing to do; and because of their respective failings, they become ...

Death on the Nile

Peter Ustinov, Jane Birkin

Starz / Anchor Bay, 2001

Simply, Superb !
Excellent performance by all the great and so known actors. A masterpiece after the Agatha Christie's novel not only for the technical production, (sets, locations, photography) but also for the music and all the talent of the great stars joined here by the first time ...

Macbeth

Jon Finch, Francesca Annis

Sony Pictures, 2002

Roman Polanski's MacBeth
I love MacBeth, and I particularly love Polanski's MacBeth. It is difficult to find at video rental outlets, however, so I want it for myself and for students. My high school students in the past enjoyed this version of MacBeth and occasionally squealed with ...

Semi-Pro

Jackie Earle Haley, Woody Harrelson

New Line Home Video, 2008

Defintely not the best Will Ferell but still hilarious
All you whiners giving this low ratings need to be quiet. This movie is clearly supposed to be stupid, not a smart witty comedy. It's classic Ferrell. While I do admit it isn't anywhere near as good as "Talladega Nights" or "Old School", it''s still full of good ...

The Hill

Sean Connery, Harry Andrews

Warner Home Video, 2007

Underrated WWII Drama
The Hill, undeservingly, has been a much underrated Sean Connery movie. It was filmed in 1965, in black and white, and without any of the typical Hollywood special effects. It relied solely on the intense acting and brutal plot. British actor Harry Andrews, as ...

Semi-Pro [Blu-ray]

Necessary Roughness

Scott Bakula, Hector Elizondo

Paramount, 2001

"Hiatel (sorry for the spelling) Hernia! Is it fatal? Indigestion? Only in Mexico."
What Major League was to baseball, Necessary Roughness is to football. This has to be one of the most underrated comedies. This stars Scott Backula (Quantum Leap, Enterprise), Sinbad, Jason Bateman, Hector Elizondo, Fred Thompson (The senator and from Die Hard 2),Kathy ...

Duma (Full Screen Edition)

Alex Michaeletos, Campbell Scott

Warner Home Video, 2006

Great movie - good for all the family
Holds your interest all the way through. A movie that the whole family will enjoy...no worry about crude words or trashy talk; just good entertainment for people who love animals. It will hold the attention of children very much also.

Hope and Glory

Sebastian Rice-Edwards, Geraldine Muir

MGM (Video & DVD), 2001

Hope and Glory
Hope and Glory An excellent movie that I received in the estimated delivery time. This will encourage me to purchase more items in the future.
