Will Patton

Fairuza Balk, Lenny von Dohlen

New Line Home Video, 1997

IT's actually PRetty GoOD
THe movie didn't start off that interesting but after about fifteen minutes I began to get interested. Although the movie is a bit cheesy, I enjoy a bit of cheese now and then. It's just another I love my family I hate my family type of movie.

No Way Out

Kevin Costner, Gene Hackman

MGM (Video & DVD), 1999

High caliber thriller!
Desire and seduction, murder and cover up, scandal and intrigue, half truths and false promises of patriotism; where the duty lies beyond the flatter and the appearance must become a politically correct matter. In this sense this Neo Noir Film transcends the anecdote ...

Gone in 60 Seconds (2000)

Nicolas Cage, Giovanni Ribisi

Walt Disney Video, 2001

The Original
It was a few years after watching the remake of Gone in 60 Seconds before I learned that it was even a remake at all. Watching the original was pretty cool because they had similar scenes. What was even better though was the chase scene with Eleanor, a Mustang Mach I, ...

Belizaire The Cajun

Armand Assante, Gail Youngs

Fox Home Entertainment, 1987

Bayou a copy right now, you!
A genuine sleeper that I never thought would make it to DVD! The story takes place in pre-Civil War Louisiana. Armand Assante ("I The Jury", "The Mambo Kings") delivers a one-of-kind performance as a charismatic Cajun healer/con man who is elected by fate into becoming ...

Stars & Bars

Daniel Day-Lewis, Harry Dean Stanton

Sony Pictures, 1998

Funny and cool
I saw this movie in the early '90's when independent and foreign films were still independent in the real sense. At this point, I had only seen Daniel Day-Lewis in Room With A View, so this movie was a significant departure from that. It is a fish-out-of-water comedic ...

The Client

Susan Sarandon, Tommy Lee Jones

Warner Home Video, 1995

DON'T YOU LOVE REGGIE?
Highly underrated story of rehabilitated lawyer Reggie Love (Sarandon) taking a case for $1 from a pre-adolescent Mark Sway (Brad Renfro). Mark and his younger brother have witnessed a gangland suicide which has severely traumatized the latter. Acting quickly, Atty. ...

Remember the Titans

Denzel Washington, Will Patton

Walt Disney Video, 2001

Wilcove - Remember the Titans
Remember the Titans with Denzil Washington is one of the most stirring movies I've ever seen. If you believe in social justice and you are passionate about sports, this movie is a collector's item (I bought it!). Denzil Washington should have won an Oscar for it. It's ...

The Mothman Prophecies

Nesbitt Blaisdell, Dan Callahan

Sony Pictures, 2002

Very Strange INDEED
This movie is based on an incident which actually occurred, but the film as presented isn't entirely accurate. What initially drew my interest is my fascination with cryptozoology and unusual, paranormal-type occurrences which appear to be completely unbelievable; ...

Judicial Consent

Bonnie Bedelia, Billy Wirth

Warner Home Video, 1995

Judicial Consent : Great Thriller
If you are looking for a movie that has it all, this one is it. A thriller that has you guessing who did it. Also, the great twist with her having an affair because of how sex starved she is, Bonnie Bedilia is awesome! From an alley to having an orgasm in her chambers, ...

Postman

Todd Allen, Scott Bairstow

Warner Home Video, 1998

Guaranteed to shed a tear!
The Postman brings to the screen the story of a drifter in a post-apocalyptic United States where the government has collapsed, bandits are roaming the land terrorizing survivors, and hope is at an all time low. It is a film about love, hope, and inner strength, but ...

The Punisher

Thomas Jane, John Travolta

Marvel/Lions Gate, 2004

A worthy edition
I thought that this movie was pretty good already, but the addition of the extended scenes and the whole missing storyline was well worth the buy. The animated beginning should have never been cut from the theatrical version. This movie and the director's cut of the ...

Entrapment

Sean Connery, Catherine Zeta-Jones

20th Century Fox, 2000

Dr Blockbuster's view on Entrapment
Well .. .what a great film! Dr Blockbuster was lucky. Sir Sean brought the UK premiere of this film to The Odeon in Edinburgh in 1999 and he was accompanied by Catherine Zeta Jones. The Odeon in Edinburgh shares the same date of birth as "Lord Connery" and you can ...

Hitch

Will Smith, Eva Mendes

Columbia Pictures, 2000

Great movie!!
Hilarious movie that my husband and I enjoy watching together. One of the few romantic comedies that is not filled with language and sexuality. We received this DVD promptly, and in excellent condition.

Armageddon (1998)

Ben Affleck, Clark Heathcliffe Brolly

Walt Disney Video, 1998

A celebration of excitement and excess
Michael Bay's films are an odd addition to the Criterion collection, until you recall the Criterion Collection's mission statement reads "All we ask is that each film in the collection be an exemplary film of its kind." Armageddon is ultimate distillation of ...

Beniker Gang

Andrew McCarthy, Jennifer Dundas

Warner Home Video, 1994

A FAVORITE
This one of three movies ("Benji" being one and "The Adventures of Milo and Otis" being the other) that I did not edit before showing other peoples' children. I love it for its family spirit and its good lessons. It has a plot and children will actually sit through it, ...
