Maggie Smith

Dustin Hoffman, Robin Williams

Sony Pictures Home Ent, 2000

I believe in you, Peter Pan.
Without a doubt 1991's HOOK is my favorite movie of all time. Granted, if you are a 40-something year old about to view Hook for the very first time you may have trouble truly enjoying, or even understanding it. The tale of Peter Pan(Robin Williams), the boy ...

Live Free or Die Hard [Blu-ray]

Bruce Willis, Timothy Olyphant

20th Century Fox, 2007

Only buy if you like GREAT action movies!
One of the things that made/make the Die Hard series so great is that they are GREAT action movies...and this one is an excellent example! I love it when McClane tells the bad guy that his girlfriend is down the elevator shaft with an SUV up her ... It is pure Die Hard ...

Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (Widescreen Edition)

Daniel Radcliffe, Rupert Grint

Warner Home Video, 2007

Zooms Along
Harry Potter and The Chamber of Secrets is the type of movie that will be around forever. So far the two Harry Potter movies have been excellent movies in which spirit of the books by JK Rowling has been captured and expanded upon. Chamber of Secrets is about Harry ...

Becoming Jane

Philip Culhane, Jessica Ashworth

MIRAMAX, 2008

blu ray playback problems??
Does anyone else have problems getting this blu ray movie to play on their blu ray player? I can't get this film to play, and I have bought this blu ray from three different sources. The intro is fine, but as soon as I click on 'play,' it just goes to black and nothing ...

The First Wives Club

Bette Midler, Goldie Hawn

Paramount, 1998

The First Wives Club Review
I love this movie. Great story, great cast. It's heartbreaking, it's really funny, and the music is good, too.

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (Two-Disc Special Edition)

Timothy Bateson, Helena Bonham Carter

Warner Home Video, 2007

My favorite movie of the series
People might say that they ripped to book since they left out a whole lot. But I loved what they put it, especially the ending. The ending made the movie.

The Secret Garden

Kate Maberly, Heydon Prowse

Warner Home Video, 1997

Enchanting tale
When an earthquake in India leaves her an orphan, Mary Lennox is sent to live at her uncle's remote estate in England. The spoiled, bratty Mary is quite miserable with no one to talk to or play with and a stern housekeeper (Maggie Smith) hovering over her. When Mary ...

Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone (Widescreen Edition)

Daniel Radcliffe, Rupert Grint

Warner Home Video, 2007

Good enough
This movie captures the magic of Harry Potter enough to be a great movie. Third best movie in my opinion.

Murder by Death

Eileen Brennan, Truman Capote

Sony Pictures, 2001

Murder By Death Kills
If you're a fan of detective spoofs and whodunit mysteries, Murder By Death is a must-see as the film that inspired the private-eye parodies that followed it. Filled with slapstick, double entendre, dry witticisms, and sight gags, this movie has something for ...

Clash of the Titans

Ursula Andress, Claire Bloom

Warner Home Video, 2004

I'd love to see a remake of this movie.
I saw this the first time when I was a kid. Amazing still after all these years. The special effects were pretty good for the time. The story kicks butt. A must see for those into action/adventure/fantasy. Medussa should get her own movie. She rocks. Recommended!

Ladies in Lavender

Judi Dench, Maggie Smith

Sony Pictures, 2005

soft-hued lavender...
This is for those who enjoy the works of Maggie Smith and Judi Dench. Daniel Bruhl doesn't harm your eyes either. The story is joyously light but deep, the characters of Maggie Smith and Judi Dench are superbly played. It's like sibling rivalry, but not sibling ...

Keeping Mum

Rowan Atkinson, Kristin Scott Thomas

Velocity / Thinkfilm, 2007

Something odd in Little Wallop
I thought "Keeping Mum" was a bright, dark comedy. I have always wanted to see Rowan Atkinson in straight role. Kristin Thomas was super. As for Maggie Smith she was great!!

Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (Widescreen Edition)

Daniel Radcliffe, Rupert Grint

Warner Bros. Pictures, 2003

Zooms Along
Harry Potter and The Chamber of Secrets is the type of movie that will be around forever. So far the two Harry Potter movies have been excellent movies in which spirit of the books by JK Rowling has been captured and expanded upon. Chamber of Secrets is about Harry ...

The Gymnast

Dreya Weber, Addie Yungmee

WOLFE VIDEO, 2007

Awesome movie! I've already seen it 4 times.
A beautiful story about two women finding each other by making performance art in an unusual way. More stories with a lesbian theme: Driftwood Artemesian Artist (Lavender Line) (Lavender Line) Gaia's Guardian (Lavender Line) (Lavender Line)

A Room with a View [HD DVD]

Maggie Smith, Helena Bonham Carter

BBC Warner, 2007

Bonham-Carter is a Show Stopper!
A Room with a View was only Bonham-Carter's second film, made when she was nineteen. To watch her in it, one would imagine her to be a much more experienced actress. Her performance strikes just the right balance of humor and drama and combined with clever dialogue, ...
