Salo (The Criterion Collection) (1975) Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)"Salo" is most certainly one of the most controversial films of all time. With an eye sensitive to horrific imagery, it is easy to fall into a trap and see the imagery for only what it is, as opposed to what it represents. For, the power of "Salo" is to be seen in the relentless metaphor that it contains....

Kama Sutra - Secrets to the Art of Love Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)This DVD is extremely well put together. It exposes & details 50 positions with very informative (optional) narration that consicely explains the attractions of each position. The 3D glasses (included) are a kick for sure, perfect for parter participation (you get 2 pairs), but they are far from...

Joel McCrea Double Feature: "The Most Dangerous Game"/Bird Of Paradise Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)To be honest, the only reason I got this dvd was because of the 1932 classic "The Most Dangerous Game", which I've desperately wanted to see ever since I read the story by Richard Connell in high school. But surprisingly enough I enjoyed both movies, as well as the bonus features.The first movie, 1932's...

D2 - The Mighty Ducks (1994) Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)Buena Vista (the company that releases Disney films on DVD) chose to not release anamorphic DVDs when they first came to DVD, so none of these films are anamorphically enhanced. This means, if you have a widescreen television, you will have black bars on all four sides of the picture. Also, these discs...

Kitten Party Holiday Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)This is the same DVD as the other Kitten Party--just a different package for the holidays. I got both and then realized it! But I gave one as a gift, so AOK. The DVD is just about the cutest thing I have ever seen. My kids love it and we watch it often, sometimes on mute while we do other things in the...

Cats - The Musical (Ultimate Edition) (1998) Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)The `Cats' DVD is a cinematic record of the Andrew Lloyd Webber stage musical as performed on the London stage in, I believe, 1998 starring Elaine Paige in the `lead' role of Grizabella, although the only aspect of her role which warrants calling it the starring role is the fact that this character sings...

Bob the Builder - Pets in a Pickle (2001) Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)CAN WE FIX IT? YES WE CAN! is the rallying cry for Bob the Builder and his friends, including his cat Pilchard. At age 2 1/2, my son LOVES this video, and he asked for it daily for several days after I had to return it to the library.The characters are funny, and the episodes teach cooperation and respecting...

Contract Killers (2008) Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)"Contract Killers" is an allright movie,there are lots of action scenes throughtout, but I didn't see the intensity that "Point of No Return" has. The movie had too many location scenes for me, but the shoot out in the old factory was great. The Amazon price is good and you do get your money's worth...

A New Leaf (1971) Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)This comedy performance by Walter Matthou ranks with his best work, such as in The Odd Couple, Sunshine Boys etc. Unfortunately, not as many people have seen it, as this movie is a little-known gem. I saw it as a second feature and almost missed it as I had never heard or read anything about it. We stayed,...

Babe (1995) Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)Babe was a runaway success in 1995. It even got a best picture nomination and in my mind should have won. This is a fantastic movie, sure to delight children from 2-100. Chris Noonan has created the modern farmyard parable. He deftly brings you into his world of talking animals centered around that most...

Elvis Presley: Paradise, Hawaiian Style (1966) Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)A sort of repeat of "Blue Hawaii", but "Paradise, Hawaiian Style" shows more exotic locations. Only this time around Elvis takes you by air. He stars as a handsome unemployed helicopter pilot who decides to open his own helicopter tourist service with his partner. Along the way, Elvis can't keep several...

Sex - The Annabel Chong Story (2000) Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)There's no denying that the life of Annabel Chong is fascinating to observe -- from her life as a feminist scholar to porn-star celebrity to nothing and back to porn-star celebrity.Unfortunately, with such great material the filmmaker doesn't do a good job. First of all, this documentary is just like...

Baz Luhrmann's Red Curtain Trilogy (Strictly Ballroom / Romeo + Juliet / Moulin Rouge) (1993) Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)The colorful, whirling world of Baz Luhrmann is brought to life in the Red Curtain Trilogy, comprising "Strictly Ballroom," "Romeo + Juliet," and "Moulin Rouge." While there are sticky patches -- particularly the pairing of Danes and DiCaprio in "Romeo + Juliet" --the overall effect is beautiful and...

The Legend of Sleepy Hollow (1999) Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)I love this movie for how simple, entertaining and close to the original story it is. I am a 6th grade teacher, and for the past two years my class has read the story and watched this movie version. Last year, my kids said that it was much better than the gory Tim Burton one. I am so excited to be able...

Endurance (1999) Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)Endurance is not a movie about distance running. While many people, especially runners, would disagree with this statement, a critical look reveals a simple, multi-layered film that deals with the universal story of a hero overcoming hardships and obstacles to achieve a dream.What makes Endurance most...

The Indian In The Cupboard (1995) Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)"The Indian in the Cupboard" is an excellent movie for tween-aged children (i.e., children between their pre-school and teen years). In this movie a boy discovers that he can bring small action figures to life by using a small, old, wooden cupboard. The first figure he brings to life is a Native American....
