Holocaust
Tom Bell, Joseph Bottoms
Paramount, 2008
Realistic Portrayal
This is an excellent saga of two families during WWII. It is interesting to see how attractive having power became to an ordinary German man. The movie also presents the heartache of victims of the German mindset. I had seen this years ago, and had been waiting for it ...

No Country for Old Men
Javier Bardem, Rodger Boyce
Miramax, 2008
An Intelligent Cat & Mouse Chase
Before I give my review I first want to say that this film isn't for everybody, it's slow paced and doesn't spell out the plot for you like some of todays films do. The violence is graphic and unflinching and the actors in every role give a 5 star performance. My ...

Cranford
Francesca Annis, Eileen Atkins
BBC Warner, 2008
Cranford
It was a pleasure to watch. It was interesting to see the interaction between the characters. They are all so real and can be transported into how things work in the modern day world. Gossips and problem solvers and meddlers, all types of people that make the world ...

William Shakespeare's Hamlet (Two-Disc Special Edition)
Kenneth Branagh, Julie Christie
Warner Home Video, 2007
Branagh's Hamlet
Our family has been reading and really, studying Shakespeare over the last few years. We have read Hamlet several times and seen several versions of Hamlet. Kenneth Branagh's is absolutely marvelous. The filming is wonderful and sumptuous. The sets and places they ...

Veronica Mars - The Complete Third Season
Kristen Bell, Jason Dohring
Warner Home Video, 2007
season 3 is third best in the short line of VMs but still great!!!!
season 3 was ok. it wasn't as great as 1 and 2 but it certainly wasn't bad. It was a transition season, and like transition movies and books, it lost some of the charm the other seasons had because it had to convey a lot and keep its audiences while atempting to gain ...

Lost: The Complete Fourth Season
Lost
Buena Vista Home Entertainment, 2008
It's About "Time"
Though shorter than the previous three seasons of the show (partly due to starting in January, and partly due to the writer's strike), the fourth season of LOST is just as compelling as ever.
In reference to the main "mythology" plotlines, for the first time this ...

A Clockwork Orange (Two-Disc Special Edition)
Malcolm McDowell, Patrick Magee
Warner Home Video, 2007
A great work
Although I have heard that this movie is not one of Kubrick's best movies (Dr. Strangelove and 2001 get that credit) in which I might agree, this movie is a better movie than 95% of the crap that comes out - and is top 25 on my list. The story is classic Kubrick - ...

Mad Money

Darn good movie
Not since Tootsie have I laughed so hard! Mad Money is the story of 3 women who, being in dire financial straits, decide to pull off the craziest heist of all by intercepting thousands of dollars in worn-out bills that are on their way to the shredder. The craziness ...

Monk - Season Six
Tony Shalhoub, Ted Levine
Universal Studios, 2008
Classic Monk
Season Six went back to the formula that made the show one of the highest rated cable shows ever. Adrian's character went through a few new wrinkles (as it did every season) but the show was classic Monk. It works because the show offers a crime, puts Monk in ...
