.A Christmas Story City Travel Guides > VHS > VHS starring: Melinda Dillon, Darren McGavin, Peter Billingsley, Ian Petrella, Scott Schwartz (II) directed by: Bob Clark (III) October 07, 2003 The first time I watched this movie was at the age of ten and I love it ever since. Ralphie and his obsession with a Red Ryder BB gun is an annual classic. I think that everyone can relate to Ralphie's Old Man and his mother. Randy the little brother is adorable too. I watch this movie every year during the holidays. I laugh ever time I watch it. I think that everybody should have this movie it makes a very good Christmas present. Set in the 40s, for those who grow up in the 60s could easily identify with the themes of "A Christmas Story". Contains great lessons for any rambunctious youngsters contemplating sticking their tongues to flagpoles in the dead of winter or playing around with BB guns. Absolutely PRICELESS and a must ...

.Dreaming of Joseph Lees City Travel Guides > VHS > VHS starring: Rupert Graves, Samantha Morton, Lee Ross, Miriam Margolyes, Nicholas Woodeson directed by: Eric Styles May 16, 2000 This movie is great. At some point in a relationship everyone has to make the decision - do I love this person? This film explores that question in depth. If you have ever truly loved someone and yet the relationship was impossible - this is a movie for you. This is a dramatic movie with real characters that make the movie seem very real. >>See More Reviews & Details on Dreaming of Joseph Lees |

.Passion of the Christ (Subtitled) City Travel Guides > VHS > VHS August 31, 2004 The Man would make history. His life, death and resurrection would rock the world and challenge every man, woman and child for generations to come. His existence had been foretold since the beginning of Time. He would save the world from their sins. He would turn aside the wrath of Almighty God from all those who believed in His name and lived for Him. His name is Jesus Christ. Today, He's alive. But the world killed Him when He came because it did not know Him. Mel Gibson's controversial film about the final 12 hours of the life of Jesus of Nazareth has been met with one of two responses: extreme love or extreme hate. I have yet to meet anyone who was 50/50 about the film. This reviewer loved the film. I make it ... Read More: >>See More Reviews & Details on Passion of the Christ (Subtitled) |

.Denise Austin:6 Minute Waist T City Travel Guides > VHS > VHS from: Artisan (Universal) December 17, 2002 This is an awesome video. It's doesn't seem hard, actually, the first time I did it, I felt it was too easy, but man have I seen results. My 30 yr. old daughter tried and loved it as well. It's not the hardest workout to do, but it's very very effective. I don't always have a lot of time, this video gives you a great workout in only 6 minutes. I now do level 2 and 3 at least 3 times a week. I love this video and would recommend it to anyone trying to reshape their waistline and abs (both lower and upper) >>See More Reviews & Details on Denise Austin:6 Minute Waist T |

.Curse of Jade Scorpion City Travel Guides > VHS > VHS September 10, 2002 A by-the-numbers Woody Allen movie, "The Curse of the Jade Scorpion" is another example of the more recent (and uneven) efforts created by the director. Essentially sitcom material, the movie`s plot has some nice ideas and funny moments, yet it`s way too light and linear to deliver an above average cinematic experience. The acting (Helen Hunt and Charlizer Theros are the Allen girls this time) is good, the dialogue sharp and witty as always (although a bit forced at times), and the photography is very competent as well. Add an interesting NY in the forties and you`ve got a decent entertainment that`s worth watching once, still it`s far from a remarkable achievement. Mildly Recommended. >>See More Reviews & Details on Curse of Jade Scorpion |

.Plunkett & Macleane City Travel Guides > VHS > VHS starring: Jonny Lee Miller, Iain Robertson, Robert Carlyle, Ken Stott, Tommy Flanagan directed by: Jake Scott (II) August 01, 2000 There is real plot in this film, it just follows two bumbling theives. Actually the two actors are the only aspect that make this movie watchable, just barely however. The self-concious humour ends up being incredibly pretentious, it even seems to revel in the fact that it is pretentious, and somehow that makes the movie selfaware and hip. Some people might leap to this films defense and claim that the forgetable plot was part of the grand scheme to keep it fun and exciting. The problem is asides from the an uninvolving plot, this movie is extremely predictable, which further deminishes the already trite affair. >>See More Reviews & Details on Plunkett & Macleane |

.The Cool Surface City Travel Guides > VHS > VHS starring: Robert Patrick, Teri Hatcher, Cyril O'Reilly, Matt McCoy, Shannon Dobson directed by: Erik Anjou September 30, 1997 I have to say that even though Teti Hatcher's performance was good the movie itself was terrible. The plot was pretty dumb and the situations that take place in the movie are not believable. I can;t believe I wasted my money on this one! >>See More Reviews & Details on The Cool Surface |

.Curtain Call City Travel Guides > VHS > VHS starring: James Spader, Polly Walker (II), Michael Caine, Maggie Smith, Buck Henry directed by: Peter Yates November 14, 2000 I wanted so much to love this film. Maggie Smith & Michael Caine together again (first time: "California Suite")was a big reason I sought this one out. The story idea is pleasasnt enough, but too often the scenes seem to just ramble on. There are bright spots, usually when Smith and Caine are around. The dialogue needed much more sparkle to make this film more memorable. A bit of better editing might have also improved the whole piece. An enjoyable, but rather disappointing experience. >>See More Reviews & Details on Curtain Call |

.Desire Under the Elms City Travel Guides > VHS > VHS starring: Sophia Loren, Anthony Perkins, Burl Ives, Frank Overton, Pernell Roberts directed by: Delbert Mann May 30, 1991 It is the 1850s in a rocky New England farm that is home to the despotic owner, Ephraim Cabot (Burl Ives) and his resentful son Eben (Anthony Perkins). At 25, Eben is only staying on the farm because he expects to inherit the land, even though his greedy and cruel father swears that will never happen. The old man goes off and marries Anna (Sophia Loren), a seductive woman of Eben's age. She is repulsed by her husband, but desperately wants the farm, so there is immediate friction between Anna and her new stepson. Hatred soon turns to lust, however, and the two make good use of the hay loft. Anna gives birth to a son and Ephraim declares that the farm will be his alone one day, a decision that leads to a shocking act. Eugene O'Neill's classic tragedy makes just an OK transition to the screen, ... Read More: >>See More Reviews & Details on Desire Under the Elms |
