James Woods

Harrison Ford, Tommy Lee Jones

Warner Home Video, 2001

perfect balance
I watched this for the umpteenth time while exercising. Let me tell you, it was effective. Between taking my mind off what I was doing, and raising my adrenaline levels, it made for some intense workouts. It was based on the TV series, which I never saw, so I don't ...

Chaplin

Robert Downey Jr., Geraldine Chaplin

Lions Gate, 1998

So Right To Have Remained British
It is probably not the best film ever made about Charlie Chaplin, and I even think it is far behind Charlie Chaplin's own autobiography on which it is supposed to be based. But it makes a couple of points rather well. First, show business is business first of all. ...

Holocaust

Tom Bell, Joseph Bottoms

Paramount, 2008

Excellent
The Holocaust was a good documentary. The movie gives you a lot of background on the Jewish problem. The Germans almost annihilated the Jews and this movie shows how they did it. I would recommend this movie to anybody. Frank Lozano

Hercules (Disney Gold Classic Collection)

Tate Donovan, Josh Keaton

Walt Disney Video, 2000

Great
I received the movie at the time indicated it would be sent and it was in great condition. Thank you.

Once Upon a Time in America (Two-Disc Special Edition)

Robert De Niro, James Woods

Warner Home Video, 2003

Not a "Mafia" movie
There have already been nearly 300 reviews of this film posted and I will not add to the large amount of commentary except to say that it is a grievous mistake to call this a "Mafia" movie. The gangsters are Jewish and there was a very real subculture of gangster ...

Penelope

Christina Ricci, James McAvoy

Summit Entertainment, 2008

Penelope
It was an awesome movie. Humorous, heart-warming and an all-around great story! Wish I had bought the special edition one.

Contact

Jodie Foster, Matthew McConaughey

Warner Home Video, 1997

I Love This Movie!!!
I have always been a science buff and a science fiction fan. This movie was wonderful. I think it is not far off to what our reaction would be if we were contacted by others in the galaxy. Jodie Foster was wonderful as Ellie Arraway and the spirit of the book was ...

My Name Is Bill W

James Woods, JoBeth Williams

Warner Home Video, 2006

A great movie about the beginnings of AA
I first saw this movie on TV 12 or 15 years ago. It's well played, although a little corny in some spots, and I feel that it moves along too quickly in other places to get the real feel for what was going on at the time. I thoroughly enjoyed the movie as a whole and as ...

Cinderella (Two-Disc Special Edition)

Ilene Woods, Eleanor Audley

Walt Disney Home Entertainment, 2005

For All Princesses Everywhere
Everyone knows the story of Cinderella; her story is perhaps the most well-loved princess story of all time. At three years old, my young daughter is enamored of all things princess, and Cinderella is clearly the most beloved princess of all. We recently were lucky ...

The Way We Were (Special Edition)

Barbra Streisand, Robert Redford

Sony Pictures, 1999

Barbra Streisand: The Way We Were
Grammy, Emmy, Academy Award and Tony winner Barbra Streisand was nominated for a Best Actress Academy Award for her role in this 'Perfect' movie. What a performance, what a great movie. The movie has a political edge to it ... such as the 2008 Presidential Primary ...

Surf's Up (Widescreen Special Edition)

Shia LaBeouf, Jeff Bridges

Columbia Pictures, 2007

Barry White LIVES!
This is just too funny for all us oldies who remember the 60's surfers, 70's Motown and adorable penguins that, somehow make us smile as easily as giggling babies do. What WOULD the world be without Hank Azaria? I apologize for not having done this earlier. Thought I ...

The Virgin Suicides

Danny DeVito, Kirsten Dunst

Paramount, 2000

Haunting
This is one of my top 5 movies. It's not a feel-good movie, but rather leaves you feeling melancholy and haunted. But I can't help wanting to watch it again and again. Sofia Coppola did an excellent job directing and Kirsten Dunst is great as Lux Lisbon. One of the ...

Jumpin' Jack Flash

Whoopi Goldberg, Stephen Collins

20th Century Fox, 2004

Jumping Jack Flash
One of my all time favourite movies. I still manage to cry at some of the scenes even after numerous viewings.

Uncovered

Kate Beckinsale, John Wood

Lions Gate, 2004

uncovered
Uncovered, Kate beckinsale showed her up and coming talents with this earlier movies in her career.I give it an A.

Trading Places (Special Collector's Edition)

Denholm Elliott, Dan Aykroyd

Paramount, 2007

trading places special collector's edition
Aside from this being one of the greatest movies of all time, the special collector's edition has some really cool special features. My husband and I really enjoyed the piece about the costuming done for the movie and the piece on the futures trade is excellent! It ...
