Cook Thief His Wife Her Lover
Helen Mirren

Lions Gate/Trimark Home Ent., 1990

A delectible sight for any artistic eye
One of the best films I have ever viewed. All aspects of this film are cautiously and intelligently thought out allowing it to shine. Characters, music, plot and artistic staging are brilliant. I truely love watching this film again and again. I have already seen ...
  
  











  



  
The Mosquito Coast
Harrison Ford, Helen Mirren

Warner Home Video, 1999

Ford's Finest Moment
"The Mosquito Coast" is one of the unheralded great films of the Eighties. I read Paul Theroux's novel after seeing the film on video and mesmerizing a book as it was I realized that though not unfilmable it would be difficult to translate to the screen. Director ...
  
  











  



  
The Cook, The Thief, His Wife, and Her Lover
Richard Bohringer, Michael Gambon

Starz / Anchor Bay, 2001

A true masterpiece, but...
...not for the squeamish and certainly not for every taste. Made back before Helen Mirren and Sir Michael Gambon became "big", this film can be viewed on many levels. It's a work of art resonating with a powerful musical score, haunting imagery, black comedy and heavy ...
  
  











  



  
Cause célèbre
Helen Mirren, David Morrissey

Tapeworm, 2000

Uneven is the Keyword
Helen Mirren can always dazzle; all these Brits are so well trained but this vehicle is not up to their talents. David Morrissey looks promising, but is uneven in this part. He's good playing innocent but I didn't buy his character's evil side. It may be the fault ...
  
  











  



  
Calendar Girls (2003)
Helen Mirren, Julie Walters

Walt Disney Video, 2004

Great Movie
This is a great movie about women. It definitely lifts your spirit and makes your day. This film celebrates the beauty of a woman. Ladies, if you feel like you are ever old for something, watch this film... This film is a must see for all - young and old.
  
  











  



  
Red King White Knight
Tom Skerritt, Max von Sydow

Hbo Home Video, 1996
  
  











  



  
Some Mother's Son
Helen Mirren, Fionnula Flanagan

Turner Home Ent, 1998

Great movie, but where's the DVD?
A great movie with some great acting. Helen Mirren is good as always, with great support. But where's the DVD? Way overdue.
  
  











  



  
Cal
Helen Mirren, John Lynch

Warner Home Video, 1998

Deliberate, concise, bleak filmmaking
A sad but engaging story about a sensitive young Irish lad, who reluctantly works for the local IRA, and helps kill a policeman, only to later find himself befriended by the man's unsuspecting family. The saddest thing about this movie is how little has changed since ...
  
  











  



  
O Lucky Man
Michael Bangerter, Geoffrey Chater

Warner Home Video, 1995

Malcolm is the Man!
A 3-hour musical about a traveling coffee salesman? That sounds pretty lame! BUT, it stars Malcolm McDowell, and he is in top form. Once again he plays the Mick Travis character from If. On an extended business jaunt, he runs into all sorts of whacky absurd ...
  
  











  



  
When the Whales Came
Paul Scofield, David Threlfall

20th Century Fox, 1993

Drama Set Against a Natural and Historic Landscape
"When the Whales Came" is a must to see for anyone who likes nature, drama, folklore, history, and anything about Britain. Set on the remote island of Scylla, off Britain, the scenery of rolling water, sandy beaches, blue skies, and lush greenery is spectacular. The ...
  
  











  



  
Prime Suspect Series 4 (The Lost Child, Inner Circles, Scent of Darkness)
Helen Mirren, Beatie Edney

Starz / Anchor Bay, 1997

More please!
Well written, well acted and an engrossing tale. Its not easy to keep the pace up on Mk's 2,3,4 and so forth and sometimes they trade on the initial success, this is not the case here and this well worth the watching.
  
  











  



  
Prime Suspect 1
Helen Mirren, John Benfield

Starz / Anchor Bay, 1997

Character is everything!
This is a general review, meant to encompass the entire "Prime Suspect" series. DCI Jane Tennison, by far, is one of the most complex female characters ever written for television. She is layered, she is difficult and she is sublime. She is a character that many women ...

Fiendish Plot of Dr Fu Manchu
Sid Caesar, Clive Dunn

Warner Home Video, 1998

a diabolically criminally funny spoof
THE FIENDISH PLOT OF DR. FU MANCHU [hereinafter "Fu"] is a diabolically, criminally funny spoof of the preceding Fu villain movies. The opening scene was foretelling. Sellers, as a vintage Fu, is celebrating his 168th birthday. His crowd of sinister lackeys are singing ...
  
  











  



  
S.O.S. Titanic
David Janssen, Cloris Leachman

Questar Video, 1990

Titanic with a sense of humour
This version of the Titanic movie saga that has taken the world by storm is one that doesn't take itself too seriously. Instead of focussing on the negatives such a snobbiness and class differences (which they save for a later time when the real tragedy occurs) it ...
