Michael Shannon

Lauren Lee Smith, Eric Balfour

Velocity / Thinkfilm, 2006

Quiet, yet moving
This movie has an art house/independent film presentation. No wasted dialogue (except for a few of the voiceovers). Powerful love/sex scenes. Nice chemistry between the two leads.

Never Been Kissed

Drew Barrymore, Michael Vartan

20th Century Fox, 2003

A complete joy
This review is from my wife Sarah: Never Been Kissed is one of my all time favorites. Drew Barrymore is absolutely believable and lovable as an intelligent but seriously geeky 25 year old writer who goes undercover as a high school student. In the course of looking for ...

Dr. Seuss' How The Grinch Stole Christmas (Deluxe Edition)

Christine Baranski, Jim Carrey

Universal Studios, 2002

Happy Christmas
I never tire of Jim Carrey. This is both a sad and happy Christmas film.

Heart and Souls

Robert Downey Jr., Charles Grodin

Universal Studios, 1998

What a Great Movie!
Love, death, car wrecks, great music, and a happy ending what more can one movie deliver? I thoroughly enjoy watching this movie and have watched it time and time again. It's a great movie to sit in front of on a wet Sunday afternoon with the kids.

Pearl Harbor [Blu-ray]

Ben Affleck, Josh Hartnett

Buena Vista Home Entertainment, 2006

Pearl Harbor Blu-Ray Disc
I haven't watched it yet in Blu-Ray, but the movie is great on regular DVD.

Purgatory

Sam Shepard, Eric Roberts

Turner Home Ent, 2005

Love this movie
I first saw this movie on TBS years ago and i never forgot it. I've always wanted to see it again and hoped that it was on DVD. i was so happy it actually exsited. Amazon had the best price!

Wet Hot American Summer

Elizabeth Banks (II), Michael Ian Black

Universal Studios, 2002

This movie is absolutely perfect in every conceivable way.
I'm not kidding. If this movie doesn't make you laugh you're a worse person than Hitler. Well, not Hitler, but definitely Goebbels. Then again, you might just not like it. You're probably somewhere between Goebbels and Gandhi.

Touch of Evil (Restored to Orson Welles' Vision)

Joe Basulto, Joseph Calleia

Universal Studios, 2000

"Touch of Evil" presented in its three different variations with actor commentary
Over looked when it was released (except in France where it won awards and critical praise), "Touch of Evil" was Orson Welles' last major studio project as writer-director-star. When the original director bowed out, Welles (supported by star Charlton Heston)asked for ...

Dirty Work

Norm MacDonald, Artie Lange

MGM (Video & DVD), 1999

Ridiculous! Completely Ridiculous!
OK, this film bombed at the theaters and I am guessing it was panned by the critics. HOWEVER, it has some of the funniest lines and scenes in movie history. Artie and Norm work beautifully together. MOREOEVR, there is one scene in this movie that makes me literally cry ...

Drop Dead Gorgeous

Kirsten Dunst, Ellen Barkin

New Line Home Video, 1999

Invaluable Parental Aid for Raising Daughters
You've read the plot synopsis and you probably know that Drop Dead Gorgeous is Drop Dead Funny. One of the things that makes it work is that the cast almost never winks at the audience. There's hardly a clue that this is an over-the-top parody. This deadpan quality ...

Evan Almighty (Widescreen Edition)

Steve Carell, Morgan Freeman

Universal Studios, 2007

The most preposterous, ridiculous, ENJOYABLE film I've seen in a long time
From a "logical" point of view, the plot of this movie is preposterous. But if you have retained any portion of that "kid" inside you, you can enjoy this film right along with the "real" kids in the family.

Santa Clause 2 (Full Screen Edition)

Tim Allen, Elizabeth Mitchell

Walt Disney Video, 2003

Outstanding Movie!
A great sequel to a great movie. I really enjoyed watching the 2nd one as I did the first both are fabulous movies, and gives you a couple of laughs. A def must to watch at Christmas time.

Evan Almighty (Full Screen Edition)

Steve Carell, John Goodman

Universal Studios, 2007

Evan Almighty Review
A wonderful family movie that shows good morals and values and reminds you that just becasue things may seem wrong or out of whack it doesn;t mean that there isn't a good reason. it also reminds us that God is in control and He will place us where we need to be and ...

High Crimes (Widescreen Edition)

Ashley Judd, Morgan Freeman

20th Century Fox, 2002

Lots of turns and twists!
Ashley Judd gives a stunning performance as an attorney who must keep her husband from getting the death penalty in military court. Tom Kubik has been living under an assumed identity to keep from being arrested for a crime he says he didn't participate in, but will ...
