I love this movie!!! I first saw it as a high school play. One day I was going through the cable listing and found this wonderfully funny silly movie. It has so many great actors, especially Carol Burnett. Must see!

Michael Caine, Trevor Howard

MGM/ UA Home Video, 1996

You Are There!!
If any movie ever benefitted from the appearance of new technology, this one is it. The appearance of Blu Ray high definition formatting makes this movie come alive on the screen. It's almost impossible to remember that this movie was originally shot in 1969, when watching the Hurricanes, Spitfires, Messershmitts and Heinkels roar across the sky in spectacular detail. The original photography ...

Live / Artisan, 1999

I love this clunky film and here's why... (details)
I recently grabbed a good used copy of this film in a pawn shop for two bucks and I would have sworn that I had seen this 1976 production before now... but, as it turns out, I had not. My older brother made precisely the same comment. The movie is, of course, based upon Jack Higgins thriller-novel of the same name: The Eagle Has Landed (Liam Devlin) I'm pretty sure that this movie never caught ...

Anchor Bay/Starz, 1998

Sleuth
This is must see for those interested in the twists & turns of the whodunnit genre. Prefer this version over the modern version with Michael Caine (playing Laurence Oliviers' original role)and Jude Law. Why do film-makers always have to force homosexual scenes into good movies? The vendor I bought from was excellent to deal with.

Dressed to Kill
While taking a shower, Kate Miller, a middle-aged, sexually frustrated New York housewife, has a rape fantasy while her husband stands at the sink shaving. Later that day, after complaining to her psychiatrist Dr. Robert Elliott about her husband's pathetic performance in bed, she meets a strange man at a museum and returns to his apartment where they continue an adulterous encounter that began ...

Warner Home Video, 1994

Afro-Brazilian Bees. Not Hardworking Honeybees
Makes "When Time Ran Out" look like Schindler's list. My favorite scene: Katherine Ross is lying in a hospital bed. There is knocking at the door. She gets up, opens the door and is met by a bee the size of an elephant. I kid you not. If you don't think that makes this a must see then I don't know what else to say. Except this: Michael Caine seems to be testing the theory that the worse the ...

Without a Clue. really.
I love this movie, but I didn't stop to think about the formatting. I wanted it in widescreen, not 4:3. My fault entirely. Without a clue -- really.

MICHAEL CAINE IS UNCLE MATTHEW. GOOD STUFF...
MIchael Caine is a funny bastard, every once in a while he gets some lame roles, but when he gets a good, he can really crack you up. This bit, in which he gets involved with his best friends daughter is perfectly suited for him. Along with a nice supporting cast including that funny guy from the eighties (I cant remember who he is, hes either italian or jewish-not sure)Demi Moore and this cutey ...

The danger of losing one's head: a cultural and psychological perspective
This review is in response to a one-star submittal on March 26, 2004. It contains SPOILERS, so you've been warned. My major interest is cultural anthropology, and there is no civilization so cruel as to lack civility nor one so civil as to hide its own form of cruelty. Watch Scorsese's "The Age of Innocence" as a case in point. However, that's not the focus of this film; to make it so ...

Michael Caine, Donald Pleasence

Universal Pictures, 1998

SIEGEL CONSTRUCTS SOMETHING SPECIAL.
For this work, scenes of "action", a Don Siegel specialty, are less significant than those that generate characterization and plot, functioning to release tension rather than keep it at bay, although the director's customary taut pacing and stoniness are here, within a twisty story largely faithful to its source, a Clive Egleton novel: "Seven Days to a Killing", strongly scripted by Leigh Vance ...

GREAT BLU-RAY OF A GREAT FILM AT A DECENT PRICE!
I took the advice of several others and purchased this Blu-ray through Amazon.uk instead of through the second hand folks on Amazon here in America. It cost me less than twenty dollars, half of what was charged here. And it arrived (from England) in eight days! This is a perfect blu-ray, a hundred times better than the last DVD print. The colors are clear and crisp, especially the uniforms ...

Miss Congeniality
After botching up an undercover assignment involving Russian mobsters, less-than-graceful FBI Agent Gracie Hart is placed on desk duty. However, when a terrorist, known only as The Citizen, threatens to disrupt the Miss America pageant, Gracie, unfortunately, is the only agent attractive enough to go undercover posing as Miss New Jersey. This movie has a good story, cute and hillarious parts, ...

Educating Rita
Educating Rita "Educating Rita" is in my personal top five movies of all time. Although labeled a romantic comedy I think that this movie is in a class by itself and defies categorization. I have a definite academic bent and this Oscar nominated, Lewis Gilbert directed, 1983 film still strikes a deep chord though I've watched it over and over. Frank(Michael Caine), a divorced and ...

Michael Caine as the Ultimate Underachiever
Why has this not been released in DVD format. I absolutely hate the fact that a terrific movie such as this will go unnoticed, to a whole new generation of movie goers. This movie allows Michael Caine to flex his acting chops, and portray the futilistic, down on love writer, who has given up on life and love. Then along comes Sally Field ... I LOVE her in this flick. She portrays such ...

The Destructors [VHS]

Michael Caine, Anthony Quinn

Anchor Bay, 1990

Atypical Michael Caine role
Forgotten 70's thriller about a huge drug kingpin, James Mason, being tracked by good guy Anthony Quinn. Pretty ordinary stuff with the exception of Michael Caine as a charming, kooky hitman. I recommend it simply because of his fine work in the film.
