Pretty creepy for a PG-13 movie!
I don't know what everybody's problem is. I guess these reviewers need a lot of sadistic gore (via Saw)to deem a horror movie watchable. OK, when I finally got to rent the movie (it seemed to always be out), I was disappointed to discover it was PG-13. So, after disappointing unrated junk like Dead Silence, I went in with very low expectations, and was delightfully surprised. This movie was ...

This one made me cry
Have you ever had a moment in your life where things have dramatically changed? And you didn't know how you were going to pick yourself up? Well I happened to catch this movie half way through when a relationship literally came to an end. This movie has to be one of the most heart mending movies I've ever seen. Cameron Diaz, Kate Winslet, Jude Law, and Jack Black are very enjoyable in this. It's ...

Disney's 20000 Leagues Under the Sea
Disney's 20000 Leagues Under the Sea was one of the most influential film experiences of my youth. I definitely rate it as a five star film with good special effects, which though dated, were very good for the time. The best of the special effects scenes was the giant squid and I have read that this scene required many retakes and changes in mechanical approach to satisfy Disney who would not ...

This is a great story about what is important in life and what the meaning of being happy in life is all about.

Ed Burns as "The Murph"
I really enjoyed this movie when I thought I wouldn't. I am a big fan of Selma Blair, and the rest of the cast looked great, so I thought I'd give it a go. It has a cynical feel to it (mostly in the beginning), so you may have to be in the right mood to appreciate it. If you've enjoyed any other Edward Burns films, I believe you will enjoy this one as well. Set in New York (Burns loves New ...

Good B-rated sci-fi movie
I'm not sure why this movie has gotten so many bad reviews. I've seen it three times on the Sci-Fi channel and each time I couldn't stop watching it. The movie has many unexpected twists and the creatures are truly creative and scary. Among the creatures are some very large hanging bats, some strange looking gorilla-reptile things, a water eel-snake thing, large flying birds, dinosaurs, and ...

A flawed gem
First off, everything you may have heard about the opening Normandy sequence is true: this is quite simply the most amazing battle re-creation footage you're ever likely to see. Definitely not for the squeamish, it paints its horrifying portrait without ever allowing the viewer to glory in any kind of "excitement" (which most battle simulations end up doing on some level, even the well-meaning ...

I had seen this movie back in 1939 and have always considered it a good movie for Tyrone Power. It is just a good western and feel it took me back to when the movies were interesting and clean. Jesse James just holds your interest.

Looking for Kitty

Velocity / Thinkfilm, 2006

Burns hits another one out of the ballpark!
If the slice-of-life, small independent film makes a comeback, it will owe a lot to Ed Burns and his great pictures. Looking for Kitty had a brief theatrical run, but hopefully will find its audience on DVD. It's a fantastic gem that's injected with a more thoughtful, even melancholy beat, juxtaposed with sincere humor and a great eye for the camera. Burns also knows how to properly use music ...

Brilliant - a jewel
I must echo the writer who says s/he has watched this over and over. I too have repeatedly watched this wondeful movie. I come across few people who have ever seen it. This is a movie that begins with Ed Byrnes saying "So, I'm dead." His narration reminded me in feeling of the very fine narration by Nicholas Cage in Raising Arizona or Mogran Freeman's in Shawshank Redemption. There is ...

No moldy old mummy in this atmospheric thriller!
In this 1971 Hammer Films entry, we get the "reincarnation of the Egyptian Princess theme," but with a certain caveat -- there's no "bandaged-wrapped mummy" to avenge her or to drag her off at the end of the movie! Directed by Seth Holt, this is a fine horror flick with all the great set and location ambiance that we've come to expect from the British-based Hammer Film Company. It's shot in ...

Four and a half stars
"The Groomsmen" is a heartwarming drama/comedy about a group of friends in their thirties as Paulie, played by Ed Burns, prepares for his wedding. Burns' fans will be treated to the same elements that worked so well in his other films, including an ensemble cast. The interaction between the friends was truly enjoyable. We all know and can relate to people just like this. But this film goes ...

Fun to Watch - Buy It
I've seen this movie on cable several times and have enjoyed it each time. Not so much for the plot, although it's not bad, but more for the cast. They're all fun to watch. Even Dustin Hoffman's overacting is a fun ride, and the minor characters are a treat. If you don't expect high art and are in the mood for a good story with compelling actors, you won't be disappointed. How can you argue ...

Great afternnon/evening entertainment
I thoroughly enjoyed this movie. Lots of laughter. Although some parts were just unbelievable it is a lot funnier than some other "hair salon" movies.
