.Sleeping Beauty City Travel Guides > VHS > VHS starring: Mary Costa, Bill Shirley, Eleanor Audley, Verna Felton, Barbara Luddy directed by: Clyde Geronimi September 16, 1997 I have been trying to remember the first time I saw Walt Disney's "Sleeping Beauty," and I cannot remember if I ever saw it in a theater, caught it on television some time, or never sat down to watch it until it came out on videotape. What I did remember is not being particularly impressed by the movie. Certainly I did not consider it to be a classic Disney animated film like "Bambi" or "Cinderella," which is a way of saying that it was not on my "must have" list of Disney movies. Then I watched this 50th Anniversary Platinum Edition of "Sleeping Beauty" and all I can say is that however I saw this film for the first time it was NOT in this expanded version that has restored the original Super Technirama 70 dimensions of the film. I would ... Read More: >>See More Reviews & Details on Sleeping Beauty |

.Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs City Travel Guides > VHS > VHS starring: Adriana Caselotti, Harry Stockwell, Lucille La Verne, Moroni Olsen, Billy Gilbert directed by: David Hand October 25, 1994 Same basics ad the DVD without the goodies. I will describe the DVD. Before we go into any details, I suggest you put on your protective goggles, strap in and go for the main feature. Prepare to be dazzled with sharp images and excellent sound that stay true to the original film. As with all Disney products there is a lot of schmaltz explaining to them selves of how great they are. In this case, I will have to agree with them. The platinum edition of "Snow White and the seven Dwarfs" makes it well worth trading in your old version or just retiring it. The two-disk edition has more information than can be absorbed in one sitting. Amazon did a good job of defining all the DVD goodies. However I must mention a few. This takes ...

.Mary Poppins City Travel Guides > VHS > VHS August 26, 1997 This is one of those films that has stood the test of time and is still entertaining now as it was 40 years ago. Everyone knows the tale of the magical nanny that blows in on the east wind and into the lives of the Banks family of 17 Cherry Tree Lane. Jane and Michael Banks have had a succession of strict nannies as well as a very strict father and a mother who is always out with her fellow suffragettes. Mary Poppins brings magic and fun into the children's lives, something that has been sorely lacking prior to her arrival. Julie Andrews stars as the nanny and Dick Van Dyke as the lovable cockney Bert, (just forgive his dreadful accent) who always seems to be around at the right time for an adventure. The children find themselves having outings such as ... Read More: >>See More Reviews & Details on Mary Poppins |

.Memphis Belle City Travel Guides > VHS > VHS starring: Matthew Modine, Eric Stoltz, Tate Donovan, D.B. Sweeney, Billy Zane directed by: Michael Caton-Jones February 04, 1997 This is the first of a line of movies depicting shear guts in the face of a real enemy. Afterwards came the likes of Platoon, Saving Private Ryan, Thin Red Line, The Windtalkers, Blackhawk Down and We Were Soldiers. Memphis Belle gets a bit schmaltzy in the beginning, focusing on the crew and not the reality, but the scenes of flying into the fire makes you respect the guts that generation displayed. I really thought that using the actors (all around 21 to 25) was a great touch, and made me sit back and think about what I was doing at that age (Nam) and what my dad was doing (WWII). Whew, take a bunch of amped up young men and throw them into harms way. I wonder if older, more comfortable men would have done that? And I thought flyboys ...

.Babe City Travel Guides > VHS > VHS starring: Christine Cavanaugh, Miriam Margolyes, Danny Mann, Hugo Weaving, Miriam Flynn directed by: Chris Noonan January 29, 2002 If you loathe children's movies, you'll like Babe. Its hard to explain how smart, funny & charming this movie is. Part of the charm is the fact that almost all of the characters have distinctive personalities. The humans act like normal humans and the animals have normal human emotions. Endlessly inventive and with a heart of gold. Tremendous fun for everyone. >>See More Reviews & Details on Babe |

.Return of Jafar, the City Travel Guides > VHS > VHS starring: Jason Alexander, Jeff Bennett, Val Bettin, Liz Callaway, Dan Castellaneta directed by: Tad Stones, Alan Zaslove July 14, 1998 While this was probably one of the better Direct-to-video releases Disney produced - it was *far* from memorable. Bringing Jafar back seemed like some sort of cop-out - as if there were no other villans or adventures to chase. It played out like a gigantic episode from the TV series (which I also remember watching, but not with any kind of fervor.) And somehow, creating a sequel for Aladdin felt cheap - it was a feeling I couldn't rid myself of during the entire film. >>See More Reviews & Details on Return of Jafar, the |

.Contact City Travel Guides > VHS > VHS starring: Jena Malone, David Morse, Jodie Foster, Geoffrey Blake, William Fichtner directed by: Robert Zemeckis June 26, 2001 this movie pleasantly surprised me.i had put off seeing it for years,mainly for 2 reasons.the first reason is that the movie looked like it would be 1 long bore.the 2nd reason is Jodie Foster.i have never been a fan of her.something about her just rubs me the wrong way.however,tonite the movie was on 1 of the movie channels,and i thought,what the heck.i'll give It a shot.i figured i'd watch for a short time,then become bored and do something else.that was not to be the case.yes,the movie is long,clocking in at almost exactly 2 and a half hours.but it doesn't feel like a 2 and a half hour movie.i thought the time went by rather quickly,and considering the subject matter,you wouldn't think that would be the case.the movie ...
