The Notebook (New Line Platinum Series)

Tim Ivey, Gena Rowlands

New Line Home Video, 2005

There is a reason
There is a simple explanation for why someone would give a bad rating for this movie...they have never known what it's like to have loved and lost or almost lost someone. This movie makes sense to people who believe to have met their soul mate. That magical ...

Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull (Two-Disc Special Edition)

Harrison Ford, Cate Blanchett

Paramount Home Entertainment, 2008

Indiana Jones and the 50's Paranoia!
A few spoilers! You've been warned! For just the 2 disc DVD info, check the last few paragraphs. It's been over 20 years since Indiana Jones has been in theaters. We've had a great TV show and countless comics and other goods since then. Does Indy 4 live up to the ...

The Hunt for Red October [Blu-ray]

Sean Connery, Alec Baldwin

Paramount, 2008

Still a fantastic movie
Thought is was nice in DVD, but then decided to take a chance on Bluray. What a difference. Not in the habit of upgrading a DVD, but now that I've seen and heard the difference that BD makes, I'll be replacing several of my old DVD versions. Just a classic that ...

Starship Troopers 3: Marauder

Casper Van Dien, Jolene Blalock

Sony Pictures, 2008

As good as the first
A lot of action and fun! Starship Troopers 3 is as good as the first one! (Perhaps even more fun) I already watched it three times within a few weeks. Other funny science-fiction / horror movies, which I can recommend are e.g.: Serenity (Science-Fiction, ...

Foyle's War: Set 5

Foyle's War

Acorn Media, 2008

Drama at its best
Great characters who've developed over time, played by accomplished actors, even in minor roles - Michael Kitchen is stellar in the lead. It's nice but not necessary to have seen earlier episodes. Terrific plotlines - plausible, emotive and engaging, with subtleties ...

Across the Universe (Two-Disc Special Edition)

Evan Rachel Wood, Jim Sturgess

Sony Pictures, 2008

Imagine
Who would have thought that this could be done? Stringing a story through the soundtrack of our lives could have been trite. The movie though, captures the times between 1964 and 1969 perfectly. The evolution of the politics, music and graphic imagery mirrors what I ...

Jumper

Hayden Christensen, Diane Lane

Twentieth Century-Fox Film Corporation, 2008

Great purchase
The movie was great. It was action packed, and surprised me many times. The purchase was easy and it arrived promptly and as advertised.

Robot Chicken: Star Wars

Mark Hamill, George Lucas

Turner Home Ent, 2008

Robot Chicken Star Wars
Love Star Wars, not so much Robot Chicken but this is hilarious take on the Saga.

Band of Brothers

Damien Lewis, Ron Livingston

HBO Home Video, 2002

Essential Introduction to the Greatest Generation To the Next Generation
Band of Brothers takes us from Boot camp through the great battles of the European Theater of operations to the final Victory against Hitler's Third Reich. Along the way, we see these Band of Brothers (from Shakespeare's famous speech in Henry V - "We few, we happy ...

Band of Brothers [Blu-ray]

Damian Lewis, Donnie Wahlberg

HBO, 2008

The best way to view this fine series!
The current Japanese HD DVD import of Band of Brothers has fantastic video quality so it's likely the Blu-ray issue will be equally good. That HD DVD import sells for about $150 so the BD price also looks very good. If you read the reviews of the DVD version you'll ...

Rambo [Blu-ray]

Julie Benz, Ken Howard

Lionsgate Home Entertainment, 2008

The Best Rambo yet
This is without a doubt the best movie in the Rambo series. It shows more depth to the character, than any of the Rambo's. The ending is how fans of he Rambo series would want it to end. It plain felt good. The fighting scenes are graphic, but the movie rating ...

Rescue Dawn

Christian Bale, Steve Zahn

MGM Home Entertainment, 2007

Terrific film; great story
I saw this movie coming and I was very surprised it did not make a bigger impact at the box office. In fact, it was out of the theaters so quickly I missed it, so I waited for the recent DVD release. I was not disappointed. Rescue Dawn tells the true story of Dieter ...
