Gladiator - Extended Edition (Three-Disc Extended Edition)

1640 reviews
Russell Crowe, Joaquin Phoenix

Dreamworks Video, 2005

Amazing
This movie is so personal to me. I admire Maximus so much... I almost envy his character. I unfortunately can compare myself to comidus, which drive a steak through my heart at times. What I question in the end is .... are there men like Maximus? Or is it just a story of fiction ... or just a hero character we all fall short of fully embodying? Maximus is a man of absolute principle and ...

The Complete Musketeers (The Three Musketeers / The Four Musketeers)

103 reviews
Oliver Reed, Raquel Welch

Starz / Anchor Bay, 2003

Outstanding adventure films!
I remember when this version of "The Three Musketeers" was due to be released in the 70's...it was promoted as being more realistic in the atmosphere, attire and weaponry use of the time depicted. It hits square on in all these areas! The more gritty atmosphere (along with the dirt and sweat!)is more realistic than the polished squeaky clean appearance of the actors in the earlier Three Musketeer ...

Icons of Adventure Collection (The Pirates of Blood River / The Devil-Ship Pirates / The Stranglers of Bombay ...

13 reviews
Christopher Lee, Oliver Reed

Sony Pictures, 2008

Are Christopher Lee and Michael Ripper really icons of adventure?
That caveat aside, this is a rather splendid set of four of Hammer's adventure films of the Sixties with a nice array of extras - including audio commentaries on all four films - and trailers to compliment the fine widescreen transfers. The Devil-Ship Pirates is an entertaining pirate romp from Hammer that's a part of studio legend. Hammer built a Spanish pirate ship for the film ...

Tommy

143 reviews
Roger Daltrey, Ann-Margret

Sony Pictures, 1999

Not Just For WHO Fans!
I'm not the biggest WHO fan. But there is no denying that "Tommy" is a phenomenal masterpiece. What help makes this so great is the different guest appearances, the phenomenal music, the artistic images, the touching story, and characters who are not just good or bad. Tommy himself is kind of a Hamlet type. At the risk of oversimplifying, Tommy's father (Robert Powell, probably best know for ...

Excellent set
This is an excellent set for the money. I checked at retail stores, and each individual item costs more. Of course, my 9 year old now knows all the words to all the songs. I particularly enjoy this version of Oliver Twist.

Return to Lonesome Dove

54 reviews
Jon Voight, Barbara Hershey

Lions Gate, 2003

Excellent Western Movie!
I thought that after Lonesome Dove, no movie would get my attention especially if the original actors weren't in the sequel. After the first 5 minutes into watching Return To Lonesome Dove, I was riveted into the story, the characters, and the constant moving of the film. I rate this move 5 stars. All the actors did a wonderful job of telling another story from Larry McMurtry's moving saga of ...

Burnt Offerings

138 reviews
Karen Black, Oliver Reed

MGM (Video & DVD), 2003

One of the top three haunted house films!!
I have watched almost every haunted house film out there. My favorites in no particular order are The Innocents (1961), The Changeling (1980) and this one, Burnt Offerings (1976). The more recent The Others (2001) with Nicole Kidman is definitely worth mentioning, and I have that one in my collection as well. A lot of people say Robert Wise's The Haunting (1963) is the best haunted house film out ...

Lion of the Desert - 25th Anniversary Edition

77 reviews
Anthony Quinn, Oliver Reed

Starz / Anchor Bay, 2005

Timely movie even after 25 years
Lion of the Desert came out in 1981 to bad reviews and box office failure because its production was subsidized to the extent of $35 million by Libya. It was filmed mostly in eastern Libya - Cyrenaica -- and is worth viewing for the location itself. I saw it when it first came out and found it of interest at that time primarily for its portrayal of the Libyan national hero -- the indomitable ...

Still think the 80's Generation was more Original versus today.
I liked this movie quite a bit. I always wondered if they would make a sequel in the future nope not as of yet the story was cool the characters were well the aliens were so 80's but it was fun to watch and not boring.It was the same with Flight Of The Navigator sad it would've been interesting to say the least for a cool sequel!.But I think it is the return of the 80's an example would be the ...

Women In Love - DVD
A most superb and touching period piece which unfolds the struggle of 4 adults - 2 couples - to come to grips, literatlly, with their sexuality including the homoerotic yearning of one of the males.

The Big Sleep

21 reviews
Robert Mitchum, Sarah Miles

Lions Gate, 2002

So It's Not Bogie and Bacall; It Still Works
The American movie star Robert Mitchum headlines the 1978 English-made adaptation of Californian Raymond Chandler's famous noir novel, "The Big Sleep," generally considered an inferior remake of the 1946 American-made adaptation of the same novel, starring Humphrey Bogart and Lauren Bacall. In any case, the plot centers on private investigator Marlowe, called to the aid of a rich family, the ...

Flatliners

Kiefer Sutherland, Julia Roberts

Sony Pictures, 1998

Death's kinda like an MTV video -- without the accompanying hit pop tune...
From Columbia, the studio that gave us both THE INTERNS and THE NEW INTERNS, comes this gaga thriller that should have been called "The New AGE Interns." Kiefer Sutherland is the mad scientist who convinces his med school pals to accompany him when he checks out whether there's life after death. "I don't wanna die," he explains. "I wanna come back with the answers to death." Needless to say, no ...

John Travolta, Olivia Newton-John

20th Century Fox, 2004

Good movie!
I have loved this movie since it first came out and I absolutely love when John and Olivia work together. They have great chemistry together. This movie is a typical struggle between good and evil but with comedy and romance running through it. I definitely agree with a statement from another reviewer who said "The plot-thread with the goofy angels (and Gene Hackman as the voice of God) gets ...
