John Candy

Rick Moranis, Ellen Greene

Warner Home Video, 1992

Absolutely adorable....
I loved this film. It's so low budget and cheap, yet it's immensely watchable, hilarious, and kind of sweet in a dark, sinister way. I think it's Corman's best film (along side his Poe films, which are quite outstanding in their own way), and it's the film that was ...

Planes Trains & Automobiles

Steve Martin, John Candy

Paramount, 1997

It is ironic that the best movie that John Hughes made wasn't a teen movie
When I think of "Planes, Trains & Automobiles" I smile. It is an absolutely wonderful movie. Yes, it is regarded as a comedy but when I think of it I think of it as more of a drama. The jokes don't get old. This is probably my favorite comedy of all time. Hughes takes ...

Hot to Trot

Bob Goldthwait, Dabney Coleman

Warner Home Video, 1998

Off the scale
There aren't enough stars to give this work of art. We had a group of buddies back in Omaha called the "guys chicks totally dig" that consisted of Kroll, Burns, Kiteman and me. So many girls wanted to date us that we had to have meetings to see who was dating who and ...

Rescuers Down Under

Bob Newhart, Eva Gabor

Walt Disney Home Video, 1992

If you dont like this, your no true Disney fan.
This was a superb entry in the Disney canon. The best sequel to a animated feature as well. Faithful and underrated. This is great people, Walt Disney would have been proud.

National Lampoon's Vacation

Dana Barron, Eddie Bracken

Warner Home Video, 1992

The Original & Still The Best
I think this was one of Chevy Chase's best flick of them all and that this is surely the best and funniest Vacation saga of them all, because European Vacation, X-Mas Vacation, and Vegas Vacation weren't nearly as funny and European Vacation is where the Vacation ...

Cool As Ice

Vanilla Ice, Kristin Minter

Universal Home Video, 1991

Stunning remake of Fritz Lang's "Kalt wie Eis"
This film is of course a remake of Lang's 1930 masterpiece "Kalt wie Eis", which portrayed the descent of German racecar driver Udo Weissjunge into the debauched underworld of Weimar Germany and his eventual triumph over the scathing press which denounced him. Cool As ...

Home Alone

Macaulay Culkin, Joe Pesci

20th Century Fox, 1992

I'd go through alot of trouble like Harry And Marv did to get this DVD
This dvd has alot of deleted scene's that made me feel like watching the first time all over again. There are awhole alot of features that were worth every penny, shipping and handling and waiting that was all worth it. Now I'm gonna go watch this film again.

Splash

Tom Hanks, Daryl Hannah

Touchstone / Disney, 1994

Fond memories
I was like... I think 7 or 8 when I first saw this. I love mermaids (and still do) and this movie was just awesome. I watched it again in high school and was able to appreciate the more mature themes of the film. Nonetheless, this is still a great movie for all ages ...

Shmenges:Last Polka

John Candy

Lions Gate/Vestron, 1991

Sheer Comedy Genius!
I'd heard about this little gem for years and finally got my hands on a copy. Thank you, God!!! Once I got over the shock of seeing Eugene Levy and John Candy actually playing their accordian and clarinet, the even bigger shock was that they're actually playing VERY ...

Cool Runnings (Clam)

Leon, Doug E. Doug

Walt Disney Video, 1994

Fun Caribbean type movie
A Jamaican man has the dream to make it to the Olympics, and while he is the fastest runner in the Island nation, he is tripped and unable to win. He finds out that there is another opportunity, and that is for a bobsled team, something Jamaica has never attempted ...

The Rescuers Down Under

Bob Newhart, Eva Gabor

Walt Disney Video, 2000

If you dont like this, your no true Disney fan.
This was a superb entry in the Disney canon. The best sequel to a animated feature as well. Faithful and underrated. This is great people, Walt Disney would have been proud.

Speed Zone

John Candy, Donna Dixon

Media Home Video, 1990

Why is this so underrated and put down?????
I dont understand why this movie gets bad reveiws? I think its a great film! Just because the only charactor from the previous 2 Cannonball movies (Jamie Farr) The Sheik makes a breif appearence, its no reason to down this great fun comedy! Like its previous 2 ...

Don't Look Back: Story of Leroy Satchel Paige

Louis Gossett Jr., Beverly Todd

Warner Home Video, 1998

Great Movie of A great Baseball Player!!
This is a great movie of a great baseball player Leroy"Satchel" Paige.It's a must see!!

JFK

Kevin Costner, Tommy Lee Jones

Warner Home Video, 2003

In terms of pure filmmaking, this film is a masterpiece....
If you jettison the politics of this movie (and Stone's reputation as a muckracker), and simply look at JFK as a film, it's arguably Oliver Stone's best film and it is absolutely rivetting. It's a masterpiece of cinemtography, editing, writing, and performances. I've ...
