Applegates

Richard Gere, Julia Roberts

Walt Disney Video, 1997

Cinderella Meets King Midas
"Pretty Woman" harks back to various well-trodden themes: the Pygmalion legend, the prostitute with a heart of gold, and the poor soul who teaches the wealthy person the true values in life. Julia Roberts is a hooker who is rescued from life on the streets by the ...

Only You

Marisa Tomei, Robert Downey Jr.

Sony Pictures, 1996

Romance at its best...
The film, "Only you" is delightful. Marisa Tomei plays Faith, a highly romantic girl that believes in destiny. As a young girl she played games that told her the name of the person she would fall in love with and marry, later confirmed by a fortune teller, and she sets ...

Just Visiting

Jean Reno, Christian Clavier

Walt Disney Video, 2001

Great hilarious movie thats safe for the family
Good funny movie that is relatively unknown. Its also safe for the family since it doesnt have much cussing or any nudity.

Applegates

Ed Begley Jr., Stockard Channing

Starz / Anchor Bay, 1997

Dabney Coleman is Ant Bee --oops! Aunt Bea
The full title of this movie is "Meet The Applegates." This is an ecological movie right up there with "Medicine Man" (1992) ASIN: 6305428506. Only this time the bugs are set on revenge or at least survival which means removing humans. The mission is to blow up a ...

Inherit the Wind (1999)

Jack Lemmon, George C. Scott

MGM (Video & DVD), 2000

Inherit the Wind (1999)
A truly excellent remake of an American classic. Once you get past any inital reservations you may (understandably) have about the film's made-for-cable origins, you will find a work that is, in my opinion, just as engaging as the 1960 version. Two gripes: 1.As ...

Streets

Christina Applegate

Mgm Entertainment, 1990

Christina Applegate is Superb!
Christina is no Kelly Bundy in this flick. She has wits and street smarts just to survive from day to day. She is young, beautiful and alone on the streets so she sells her body to make the money but she has intellegence to boot. She befriends a young man, new to the ...

Gettysburg (Widescreen Edition)

Tom Berenger, Martin Sheen

Turner Home Ent, 2000

A Classic Piece of American and Film History
Gettysburg is a stunning film with strong characterization, amazing action and enthralling epic atmosphere. Jeff Daniels does his best film work ever as the Colonel from Maine who does a desperate bayonet charge to stop the Confederate onslaught. That single event ...

Nowhere

James Duval, Rachel True

New Line Home Video, 1998

dogs eating people IS cool
arraki's teen apocalypse triology ends in the wonderfully lovely "nowhere". of course, arraki's films always attract the WRONG audience so itll be hard for you to know which review to trust. here's how to tell: 1. if the reviewer says an arraki film has "bad ...

They Only Kill Their Masters

James Garner, Katharine Ross

MGM (Warner), 1998

Hammett for the '70's
For me this is one of those great, underrated movies that I end up watching whenever I'm channel surfing and I find it's on. James Garner is great as a slighty cynical and world weary small town police chief in a coastal California town, but the supporting cast and the ...

Spaced Invaders

Wayne Alexander, J.J. Anderson

Buena Vista Pictures, 1994

Flippin' Sweet
I sort of grew up with this movie. I love the way they incorporate all the inside jokes that adults can get, yet make it fun for the kids too. Plus, it helped me understand the new "War of the Worlds" movie since I never saw the original, read the book, or listened to ...

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 ...

Jaws of Satan

Fritz Weaver, Jon Korkes

Woodknapp Video, 1989

A Tour de Force of Snakes
Let's examine this film's title word-by-word: "Jaws" - a film based on a novel directed by Steven Speilberg from 1975 about a giant shark that terrorizes a Long Island beach town, a sherrif a crazy sailor and "shark expert" hunt down the massive shark. "of Satan" ...

Don't Tell Mom Babysitter's Dead

Christina Applegate, Joanna Cassidy

Hbo Home Video, 1993

This movie is great!
I first saw this when I was a kid when HBO was playing constantly. I loved it then, and I'm surprised at how much I still enjoy it. Simply told, a poorly treated mother gets to escape for a summer with her boyfriend. She deems her daughter too immature and selfish to ...

Gods & Generals (2pc) (P&S Dol Slip)

Jeff Daniels, Stephen Lang

Warner Home Video, 2003

Fantastic movie...
It may be that some reviewers who complain about the length are just too 'antzy' to sit through this movie. I found it a fascinating portrait of General 'Stonewall' Jackson during the early years of the civil war, and to some lesser extent his relationship with General ...

Kiss of Fire

Christina Applegate, Stefano Dionisi

Walt Disney Video, 2001

Beautiful film... Great for Christina Applegate fans
I bought this DVD because I am a HUGE fan of Christina Applegate, and it was well worth the price. The film is really beautiful, but the standout thing here is Christina's performance. She does an amazing job as Claudine, a woman trying to escape her past. Now, we come ...
