Shakespeare: The Animated Tales 7 reviews
Brian Cox, Daniel Massey (II)
Ambrose Video, 2004
Purchased for home school
Shakespeare is so much easier to understand when you see and hear it, and these "Shakespeare McNuggets" are great for younger students. I do, however, highly recommend pre-screening - some may not be suitable for your student (we do not watch Othello).

Braveheart Review
After watching the movie, I became totally interesting in learning the history of William Wallace. I enjoy watching this movie so much. Mel Gibson did an excellent job in protraying William Wallace. This movie capture the reality between the warfare of England against the Scottland country. This movie can enrich the mind with a different aspect of warfare between this two remarkable nation. There ...

Dandelion Dead 4 reviews
Michael Kitchen, Sarah Miles
Hbo Home Video, 2002
ABSORBED
"Dandelion Dead" is a really riveting presentation. It kind of sneaked up on me. At first, I found myself just enjoying the recreation, on screen, of a very idyllic time (1920) and place (small country town) with the seemingly gentle and harmless character of Major Herbert Armstrong played superbly by Michael Kitchen along with his most irritating wife wonderfully (and surprisingly for me) ...

The Wizard of Oz (Two-Disc Special Edition)624 reviews
Judy Garland, Stephen Cox (II)
Warner Home Video, 2005
The Wizard has it All.
"There's no place like home." Dorothy and her friends seek the answer to their desires in a land of dreams and nightmares. Brilliant use of color and sepia. Classic songs, incredible performances and special effects that still hold up today. One of my ten best.

Beverly Hills Cop II35 reviews
Eddie Murphy, Judge Reinhold
Paramount, 2002
Axel is back at it
Beverly Hills Cop was a runaway hit despite being panned by the same established critics that gave Speed 2 and Anaconda 2 thumbs up. The second installment has Axel Foley trying to solve a case involving a criminal who goes by the name "The Alphabet Killer"(played by Jurgen Prochnow) after LT. Bogomil is shot by the Alphabet Killer's henchwoman played by Brigitte Nielson. Later on Axel stumbles ...

Breaking The Cycle 9 reviews
Carlos da Silva (IV), Ryan White (II)
Alluvial Filmworks, 2002
Good entertaiment for the evening
This is a good movie. It is one hour long wich is a bit short for this story. Acting can be better too but I really liked the story line. The screen-writer definatly knew what he was writing about. Lots of Erotic scenes. I guess people will like the movie. Nice entertaiment for the evening.

Retribution3 reviews
Jonny Lee Miller, Brian Cox
Lions Gate, 2001
Entertaining film version of Iain Banks novel
While any film adaptation of a novel necessarily loses scenes and condenses characters, Complicity (or Retribution in the US) stays true to the heart of the story told by Iain Banks back in the early 90s. Jonny Lee Miller (of Trainspotting) does a fine job as Cameron Colley, a cynical leftist investigative reporter in Scotland who becomes linked with a series of deaths which have occurred across ...

For the Byron completeist
An excellent intro to the life of Byron. Not an in-depth exploration nor commentary/interpretation. This will give you a good outline of Byron's life to construct your own understanding from further reading.

Understated Drama with Outstanding Performances
I keeping echoing over and over....I watched this presentation because I aspire to see every possible iota of work available by the outstanding actor, Alan Rickman.
Each time I view Rickman's work solely for that reason, I am rewarded with an outstanding piece of entertainment I would have otherwise missed. This Masterpiece Theater presentation of Emile Zola's acclaimed novel,'Therese ...

Beverly Hills Cop II
Eddie Murphy, Judge Reinhold
Paramount, 2008
The heat's back on! And Eddie Murphy is cool as ever in this sizzling smash-hit sequel to Beverly Hills Cop. Axel Foley (Murphy) is back-back where he doesn't belong! He's going "deep deep deep undercover" into the chic wilds of Southern California unleashing his arsenal of blazing gunfire and rapid-fire gags against a gang of international munitions smugglers. Back too are Judge Reinhold and John Ashton as Murphy's crime-busting sidekicks. And ...
