Gigi (2009)

For those wondering why they should purchase another edition of "Gigi" on DVD, here are all the extras; however, if you own a Blu-ray, you might want to wait and pre-order Gigi [Blu-ray]. Other than the technical specs, the extras are the same on both versions.Winner of 9 Oscars, "Gigi" was produced after the...

Viva Las Vegas (2007)

On the 25th anniversay of Elvis' passing, I thought I'd watch one of his films...this is perhaps his best, and in pairing him with Ann-Margret, he met his match. She sizzles in the musical numbers, and sometimes outshines the King when they're on-screen together.Don't expect a plot or much in the way of dialogue,...

Down To You (2000)

... and I ended up being pleasantly surprised.Back when this film was first released, I was forced into seeing it with a female family member. I expected the worst. It had Freddie Prinze, Jr. in it. The commercials for it seemed to imply that it was geared towards the teen set. I really wasn't expecting...

Without a Paddle: Nature's Calling (2013)

this is a ok movie bought this for my Daughter she loves it. there is really not much I can say about this movie its Ether you like it or you don't I would watch it again.Yow!They obviously used the same script as the first, but threw out all the good bits (what there were). This is just a blow by blow repeat:...

The Hangover (2013)

If there's a movie film that was sold based on word of mouth, it's The Hangover. Trailer was funny but nothing spectacular, plot seems so "many times seen" (several guys go to Vegas for bachelor party and crazy things will happen) and main cast were relatively unknowns there's nothing to suggest anything promising....

Mere Brother Ki Dulhan (2011)

This is not the first time that this story has been unfolded on the silver screen. In fact, the producers did not want any of the viewers to assume that it was indeed some ground breaking plot that they had thought of, which is why they actually announced the plot through the very title of the movie.So if it...

Plan 9 From Outer Space (1959)

After reading many of the other Amazon.com reviews of the "Plan 9 From Outer Space" DVD, the consumer MUST be aware there are two different companies that are distributing this movie on DVD. The first is PASSPORT which, from all the other reviews seem to say, should be avoided. Apparently the company has their...

That Touch of Mink (1962)

Nice romp with Rock Hudson and Doris Day. These two had "That Touch" when it comes to romantic comedies. A nice, easy to watch movie. Just sit back and enjoy the fun.I love this movie and I am so so very happy that they are re-releasing it to DVD! I cannot wait until July 30th!Buy That Touch of Mink (1962)...

21 Jump Street (+ UltraViolet Digital Copy) (2012)

I've never been a fan of Channing Tatum for an assorted number of reasons. My principle reason for my disliking Channing Tatum is his lack of acting talent. His deficiencies as an actor were made apparent in every genre of film. Ever since he broke onto the scene with "Step Up",he has delivered his signature...

Dragon Lord (1982)

Dragon Lord is the first good Jackie Chan film. All the elements of a classic Jackie Chan film came together in this film for the first time: 1) The well-trained but clumsy underdog hero whose adolescent tendencies get him into big trouble. 2) The use of almost cartoonish humor, blended with spectacular, sometimes...

The Sting (Blu-ray + DVD + Digital Copy) (1973)

I just bought this DVD for my father because this movie IS a classic, no matter what anyone says. But, when it came in the mail, I was surprised to see "Full Screen" on the front of the box. So I did what many of you did NOT do (with the exception of reviewer cammonro dated Sept 2, 2003), I went to the Universal...

You Will Meet a Tall Dark Stranger (2010)

This is like a Zen version of an Eric Rohmer film. After seeing YOU WILL MEET A TALL DARK STRANGER, it's obvious why Woody Allen is much more highly regarded--and respected-in France than the U.S. The French appreciate films about relationships--especially Rohmer's films about relationships, such as MY NIGHT...

Little Big Soldier (Bluray + DVD Combo) (2010)

"Little Big Soldier" (original title "Da bing xiao jiang") is a Chinese/Hong Kong action adventure film starring (and written by) Jackie Chan. The story is set in the last days of China's Warring States Period, just before the Qin Dynasty's first unification of the country in 221 BC. Jackie Chan plays an unnamed...

Grumpy Old Men / Grumpier Old Men (Double Feature) (2010)

I owned both of these movies on Laserdisc, long, long ago. And until this Blu Ray was released, that was the only way to see these funny movies in a WIDESCREEN transfer! I was very excited to get this Blu Ray in the mail a few days ago! The transfers look awesome! Very clean, and sharp, and, at LAST, in 16x9...

Notting Hill

Let me just say that I'm not particularly a Julia Roberts fan. So when my wife asked to go see Notting Hill in the theater, I politely declined... but I figured that I'd give her a suprise and buy the DVD for her. Well, I sat and watched it with her, and was pleasantly suprised, myself!Set in the real-life Notting...
