The Lord of the Rings - The Return of the King [VHS]

Noel Appleby, Alexandra Astin

New Line Home Video, 2004

LOTR It's the best
I've bought each of the Platinum Special Limited Edition Collectors Gift Sets for all my children (now grown), and, of course myself. I read Tolkien as a child, so did my children, but they read MY books. We're a LOTR family. The Lord Of The Rings story and people ...

Brideshead Revisited, Books 1-6 [VHS]

Jeremy Irons, Diana Quick

Video Treasures, 1997

Five stars just does not cut it for this MASTERPIECE!
This is my review of the 2008 theatrical version; Stick with the 1981 Granada television version. Yes, it's 13 episodes. Yes, it's long but it is positively brilliant! Beautifully acted, sumptously filmed, masterfully directed. It's intelligence shines through in ...

The Irish In America: Long Journey Home [VHS]

Michael Murphy, Elvis Costello

Walt Disney Video, 1998

Informative, inspiring, and fun
This two-part video is a very satisfying and informative presentation about the immigration of the Irish to America. Like the Irish themselves, this video is sprinkled with humor ... but the hardships they faced and their determination to prevail ... are brought ...

You Only Live Twice [VHS]

Sean Connery, Akiko Wakabayashi

MGM (Video & DVD), 2000

THIS IS IT THE MASTERPIECE BOND MOVIE
I believe after watching almost all the Bond films, this is the one masterpiece from beginning to end in this genre. There were no mistakes, no farcical annoyances like you find in Roger Moore's or modern Bond films. No mistakes, this film does not play in anyway, ...

Great Outdoors [VHS]

Dan Aykroyd, John Candy

Universal Studios, 1992

CLASSIC!! Needs to be in your movie collection
I love this movie, if you have ever gone on a family vacation you can relate. Its just a classic John Candy flick and hilarious. A movie I can watch over and over and never get sick of. A must have, it was a hit when I saw it in the 80's and still one of my ...

Playing for Time [VHS]

Vanessa Redgrave, Jane Alexander

Virgin Video, 1988

AGAIN, WHY NO DVD?
Why, oh why hasn't this incredible movie been transferred to DVD? I don't want to spend $40 on VHS at a minimum and then it pops up on DVD! One of the most gripping Holocaust Movies ever made! Emotional and powerful from beginning to end. Few movies have the effect ...

Runaway Ralph [VHS]

Fred Savage, Conchata Ferrell

American Broadcasting Company (ABC), 1999

They don't get any better than this
This classic needs to be in every video library. Children of all ages will find this movie irresistable. I'm ordering my 4th copy because friends and family have a cute way of begging my copy away from me and ironically, I have no children. When guests come over, a ...

Buccaneer [VHS]

Yul Brynner, Claire Bloom

Paramount, 1996

Jean Lafitte, Prince of Pirates
A swashbuckler with pirates, smugglers and patriots, this is marvelous entertainment, with two actors who are riveting to watch, and some history, which though embellished in some places and condensed in others, is in essence correct. Jean Lafitte was flamboyant and a ...

Medium Cool [VHS]

Robert Forster, Verna Bloom

Paramount, 1995

Something very special...
Absorbing, thought provoking and, above all, a unique record of an important "place & time", why "Medium Cool" still fails to gain the attention it deserves remains one of life's great mysteries. First off, it's a pretty good if somewhat disjointed story... two ...

What the Deaf Man Heard [VHS]

Matthew Modine, Claire Bloom

Hallmark, 1999

Clever
The cast really seemed fluid, I loved the wit, the message and wish there were more quality movies like this today. The anti-use of swearing is a really great feature as well. The plot was terrific. I am surprised that I didnt find it until quite a while after it was ...

Flowers in the Attic [VHS]

Louise Fletcher, Victoria Tennant

Starz / Anchor Bay, 1997

Flowers in The Attic
The movie "Flowers in the Attic" was a terrible rendition of the 5 book series by V.C. Andrews. The older daughter and son were not represented well by the actors and the script was very loosely associated with the first book of the series (also with the name "Flowers ...

The Lord of the Rings - The Fellowship of the Ring [VHS]

Noel Appleby, Sean Astin

New Line Home Entertainment, 2002

Lord of the Rings-Fellowship
This is a movie I truly enjoy,because I never get tired of watching it! What I like most about it is the concept of a small band of men willing to challenge the evil that presents them! And the characters seem like they could be your noblemen,along side of you in the ...

The Journey of Natty Gann [VHS]

Meredith Salenger, John Cusack

Walt Disney Video, 2002

A Touching Depression Era Story
This is a quietly touching adult film made by Disney long before they had their Touchstone division. Meredith Salanger gives a star-making performance as a teenage girl growing up with her father during the depression. A young John Cusack has a nice turn as well, ...

The Lord of the Rings - The Two Towers [VHS]

Sean Astin, Sean Bean

New Line Home Entertainment, 2003

Best Sequel
As in Fellowship, this is a great movie. Will be a classic. Although it varries from the book, it is a good movie in its own right.

James Bond 007 Collection Volume 3 [VHS]

Timothy Dalton, Maryam d'Abo

MGM (Video & DVD), 2000

Bond NO.3
The third collection of the James Bond series has some of the best of the films, and in contrast, some of the not-so-good films. Starting off with DIAMONDS ARE FOREVER with Sean Connery as Bond, this one is somewhat lacklustre in comparison to the early 007 films, but ...
