Maggie Smith

Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone (Widescreen Edition)

Daniel Radcliffe, Rupert Grint

Warner Home Video, 2007

Good enough
This movie captures the magic of Harry Potter enough to be a great movie. Third best movie in my opinion.

The Secret Garden

Kate Maberly, Heydon Prowse

Warner Home Video, 1997

Smartest Family movie
It doesn't paint children as you've come to expect in a movie. These children are brilliant. Kate Maberly as Mary Lennox is enchantingly Sensible. The music is sad and the story transforms with everything that lives. Nature and Youth blossoming together. It was like ...

Hook

Dustin Hoffman, Robin Williams

Sony Pictures Home Ent, 2000

The absolute best movie...ever!
As of this writing, I am 22 years old. When this hit theaters, I was but a small child. I saw it in theaters, bought the VHS the day it came out and DVD the day it came out. Through seeing hundreds and hundreds of movies, this movie tops my list as my favorite movie ...

Clash of the Titans

Ursula Andress, Claire Bloom

Warner Home Video, 2004

I'd love to see a remake of this movie.
I saw this the first time when I was a kid. Amazing still after all these years. The special effects were pretty good for the time. The story kicks butt. A must see for those into action/adventure/fantasy. Medussa should get her own movie. She rocks. Recommended!

The Simpsons Movie [Blu-ray]

Dan Castellaneta, Julie Kavner

20th Century Fox, 2007

Funny Movie
I bought this as a present for my boyfriend. He loves The Simpsons and has most of the seasons on DVD. He saw this movie in theaters and loved it, but I had never seen it before. If you are a Simpsons fan you'll love it, and you might like it even if you aren't!

Live Free or Die Hard [Blu-ray]

Bruce Willis, Timothy Olyphant

20th Century Fox, 2007

Only buy if you like GREAT action movies!
One of the things that made/make the Die Hard series so great is that they are GREAT action movies...and this one is an excellent example! I love it when McClane tells the bad guy that his girlfriend is down the elevator shaft with an SUV up her ... It is pure Die Hard ...

Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (Widescreen Edition)

Daniel Radcliffe, Rupert Grint

Warner Home Video, 2007

Zooms Along
Harry Potter and The Chamber of Secrets is the type of movie that will be around forever. So far the two Harry Potter movies have been excellent movies in which spirit of the books by JK Rowling has been captured and expanded upon. Chamber of Secrets is about Harry ...

Murder by Death

Eileen Brennan, Truman Capote

Sony Pictures, 2001

Great comedy from before foul language
This movie has always been a favorite of mine. I originally saw it when it came out, and remember all the crazy stuff that went on. Later it became a thing where we would rent it every so often and watch it, waiting for certain parts. It draws on a great cast, a ...

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (Two-Disc Special Edition)

Timothy Bateson, Helena Bonham Carter

Warner Home Video, 2007

Excellent edition.
I had previously only watched the standard DVD edition of the film, which was a really bad transfer, very noisy. This transfer, however, is stunningly crisp. Blu-ray also offers a much better interaction with the menus. Even if you already own a copy of this movie on ...

Becoming Jane

Philip Culhane, Jessica Ashworth

MIRAMAX, 2008

Nice picture of Jane Austen's early years
I love romance, so I enjoyed this movie very much. It was nice to discovered the kind of life that Jane Austen could had had and related with his books, it can explain a lot about her personality. And the performances of Anne Hathaway and James Mcavoy were great, they ...

Gosford Park

Eileen Atkins, Alan Bates

Universal Studios, 2002

Commentary by Julian Fellowes is most enjoyable!
I'm glad this DVD belongs to me for I will watch it many times. The music is lovely and Jeremy Northam and Clive Owen are easy on the eyes. Julian Fellowes has an excellent commentary explaining the aristocracy and the servant class which made the story-line all the ...

The First Wives Club

Bette Midler, Goldie Hawn

Paramount, 1998

The First Wives Club Review
I love this movie. Great story, great cast. It's heartbreaking, it's really funny, and the music is good, too.

Warner Bros. Pictures, 2003

Ladies in Lavender

Judi Dench, Maggie Smith

Sony Pictures, 2005

soft-hued lavender...
This is for those who enjoy the works of Maggie Smith and Judi Dench. Daniel Bruhl doesn't harm your eyes either. The story is joyously light but deep, the characters of Maggie Smith and Judi Dench are superbly played. It's like sibling rivalry, but not sibling ...

The Gymnast

Dreya Weber, Addie Yungmee

WOLFE VIDEO, 2007

Awesome movie! I've already seen it 4 times.
A beautiful story about two women finding each other by making performance art in an unusual way. More stories with a lesbian theme: Driftwood Artemesian Artist (Lavender Line) (Lavender Line) Gaia's Guardian (Lavender Line) (Lavender Line)
