Francisco

Ivana Baquero, Sergi López

New Line, 2007

Beautiful Fantasy Masterpiece!
Some things are very strong and graphic (violance). The story is beautiful and very deep. I am 25 years old and it made me cry like a little girl. I LOVED it! Great movie. Masterpiece.

The Joy Luck Club

Diane Baker, Michael Paul Chan

Buena Vista Home Entertainment, 2002

Outstanding!!!
I had pegged "The Joy Luck Club" as a "woman's movie" (whatever that may mean to anyone). I had expected this to be more of a gender-focussed film that would make it as interesting to a male audience as a Rambo movie would be of interest to a female audience. I ...

The Streets of San Francisco: Season Two, Vol. 1

Karl Malden

Paramount, 2008

Back to Streets
It's great to see what San Francisco looked like nearly 40 years ago when Union Square had the old stores like Roos Atkins and the old San Francisco ride at Fisherman's wharf. I miss seeing those from when I was a kid. It's nice to take a trip down memory lane and ...

Medicine Man

Sean Connery, Lorraine Bracco

Walt Disney Video, 1999

Medicine Man
"Medicine Man" is, in my personal opinion, an entertaining, funny movie with a real life message about conserving our natural resources. This movie focuses on plants and animals and all of their posibiities for unknown uses, including medical cures that undiscovered ...

The Devil's Backbone (Special Edition)

Marisa Paredes, Eduardo Noriega (II)

Sony Pictures, 2004

Lucid Dream
This is one of the best movies I've seen in some time, multi-layered and a visual feast. Nothing corny here. Immediately, the film pulls the viewer into another time and place, to a landscape filled with immense beauty and menace. This is not a horror film, but a ...

Pan's Labyrinth

Ivana Baquero, Sergi López

New Line Home Video, 2007

Beautiful Fantasy Masterpiece!
Some things are very strong and graphic (violance). The story is beautiful and very deep. I am 25 years old and it made me cry like a little girl. I LOVED it! Great movie. Masterpiece.

Star Trek IV - The Voyage Home (Two-Disc Special Collector's Edition)

Vijay Amritraj, Michael Berryman

Paramount, 2003

A Comedic Genius
Though Star Trek: The Original Series is probably best known for its diverse cast of characters and mind-bending storylines, many fans of the show consider the comedic-style episodes of the show to be paramount to all others, as they allow the main characters to emote ...

Pan's Labyrinth (New Line Two-Disc Platinum Series)

Love in the Time of Cholera

Benjamin Bratt, Gina Bernard Forbes

New Line Home Video, 2008

Entertainment for Adults
This film was excellent in that it wasn't filled with blood and guts and gore as are too many films being made today. It's a wonderful feel good love story that captivates the viewer (especially women) from beginning to end. Though it wanders in places the actors and ...

Bullitt

Steve McQueen, Robert Vaughn

Warner Home Video, 1997

The Legend Lives On
The best car chase in all movie history! They don't make movies like this anymore.

Shaft

Samuel L. Jackson, Philip Bosco

Paramount, 2000

GOOD MOVIE
This was an entertaining movie, which is more than I can say for some other movies that get rave reviews. I guess everyone sees things differently, therefore, form different opinions. Compared to Shaft of the past, this one doesn't stack up, but I don't think the ...

The Curse of King Tut's Tomb: The Complete Miniseries [Blu-ray]

Casper Van Dien, Jonathan Hyde

Echo Bridge Home Entertainment, 2008

Fantastic Movie!
I think everyone who said this movie was awful was wrong. This movie is SUPERB for a mini series. Also for a Hallmark movie this movie had AWESOME special effects, a great cast, and even included a great deal of comedy. I actually prefer the longer movies, and if ...

Wee Sing:Grandpa's Magical Toys

Francisco Reynders, Kevin Hageman

Wee Sing Productions, 2005

Best Buy I ever made
the tape was in good condition and it is so loved by everyone of my grandchildren ...all ages....even me. It has been played numerous times and still going strong.

A Night at the Family Dog 1970 (The Grateful Dead / Jefferson Airplane / Santana)

Carlos Santana, Mike Carabello

Eagle Rock Ent, 2007

Run, don't walk, to get this disc!
I stumbled upon this Public TV one hour special in '70 as a feckless and un-radicalized 14-year old in the midwest. It was a monday night, I think. My parents were in the room. I sat and watched, and my mind was properly blown. I never forgot that bit of programming ...

The Streets of San Francisco: Season 2, Vol. 2

Streets of San Francisco

Paramount, 2008

Solid Police Procedural Series
The Streets of San Francisco is part of the legacy of Quinn Martin, who was one of television's alltime most successful producers, responsible for some of television's most popular action/adventure series. Martin was the producer for such popular series as The ...
