Lost - The Complete Second Season (2004)
I wasn't impressed with the original pilot of LOST, and somehow, ended up becoming hooked on the show (along with my husband).    For Season 2, we were both IRKED at how ABC would …

uomini si nasce poliziotti si muore / Live Like a Cop, Die Like a Man (Dvd) Italian Import
Cop films tend to come in several varieties, but, for my tastes, they tend to break down into two basic themes: either (A) the cop is fighting the system (think of Sylvester Stallone in COP LAND, or Al …
reviewed Justice League: Crisis on Two Earths .... March 29, 2010
posted in Movie Hype
First off, let me get this out of the way because I've read some confusing reviews (elsewhere): this is not an adaptation of CRISIS ON INFINITE EARTHS. There is an element of this story that bares a passing …
reviewed Superman/Batman: Public Enemies (2009). October 12, 2009
posted in Movie Hype
To be perfectly honest, these direct-to-DVD animated flicks (SUPERMAN/DOOMSDAY, WONDER WOMAN, GREEN LANTERN: FIRST FLIGHT, and now SUPERMAN/BATMAN: PUBLIC ENEMIES) are very solid outings. More often than …
reviewed Onechanbara. September 10, 2009
posted in Movie Hype
You know going into a film titled ONECHANBARA: SAMURAI BIKINI SQUAD that this probably wasn't directed by Martin Scorsese, but wouldn't it be neat if it was? Actually, if you don't expect this to make …
reviewed Uncounted: The New Math of American E.... September 17, 2008
posted in Movie Hype
Regardless of your politics, it's undeniable that national elections have become big business, and the greatest message presented by UNCOUNTED is that, arguably, a technology that accurately accepts, …
reviewed The Legend of the Lone Ranger (1981). September 02, 2008
posted in Movie Hype
Briefly, Amazon has had this up for a brief time showing that it is a WIDESCREEN presentation with a theatrical ratio of 1:33:1, and those two facts are in direct conflict. To clarify this is NOT widescreen; …
reviewed The Grand (2007). June 12, 2008
posted in Movie Hype
The secret behind any good poker player is ambition -- elevating the poor hand and turning it into a winner -- and THE GRAND, as a film, gives it a good shot. With plenty of recognizable faces (Woody …
reviewed Lady Chatterley (2006) (2006). March 01, 2008
posted in Movie Hype
I guess you could write all the live-long day about the number of times this D.H. Lawrence novel has been brought to the big screen, the small screen, or the direct-to-DVD screen, but I don't think LADY …
reviewed The Kingdom (Widescreen Edition) (2007). December 31, 2007
posted in Movie Hype
Say what you will about the situation in the Middle East, but THE KINGDOM -- taking its name as the shortened version for "The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia" -- is mostly just set there; it's a U.N.-sensibility …
reviewed 1408 (Two-Disc Collector's Edition) (.... December 30, 2007
posted in Movie Hype
The chief problem with all of 1408 remains the chief problem with most 'ghost'-based films: once you're absolutely certain that you're dealing with a ghost/spirit/evil-presence, etc., how much longer …
reviewed Superman: Doomsday (2007). September 20, 2007
posted in Movie Hype
Face facts, Super-fans: there is no way possible a film adaptation of the entire Superman/Doomsday saga could possibly have been attempted much less pleased everyone ... so we all may as well dispense …
reviewed Outride the Devil - A Morning With Do.... May 21, 2007
posted in Movie Hype
I've seen an awful lot of Westerns, and I've had more than my fair share of debates regarding what film is the quintessential retelling of the Gunfight at the O.K. Corral. (And, yes, for the record my …
reviewed Ultraviolet (Unrated, Extended Cut) (.... July 02, 2006
posted in Movie Hype
I guess there's a guilty pleasure wrapped up here somewhere in ULTRAVIOLET, a bloated video-gamer's paradise of a movie with action sequences quite possibly choreographed by Maybelline in order to provide …
reviewed Bloodrayne (Unrated Director's Cut) (.... June 17, 2006
posted in Movie Hype
I'm certainly not going to waste anyone's time delving through the possible strengths to the acting, script, or photography ... mostly because there isn't any or, in the very least, there isn't anything …
reviewed The Secret of Nikola Tesla. May 29, 2006
posted in Movie Hype
All of the other reviews have already touched on the subject of the flawed transfer of this terrific story detailing a handful of significant events in the life of the ever elusive Nikolai Tesla, but, …
reviewed Girl Next Door (2005). February 28, 2006
posted in Movie Hype
Documentaries -- especially those in the caliber of late night 'Showtime' or 'HBO' infotainment (or 'skinertainment,' as I've heard it called) tend to suffer from one serious shortcoming: it's near impossible …
reviewed Little Britain: The Complete First Se.... February 23, 2006
posted in Movie Hype
"Ah, Britain, Britain, Britain ... we've had running water for over 10 years," the legendary Tom Baker crooned, and I knew I was in for a delight. Thankfully, creators/stars Matt Lucas and David Walliams …
reviewed Black Books - The Complete First Seri.... February 08, 2006
posted in Movie Hype
I hate sitcoms. Let me tell you why I hate sitcoms: the viewer is expected to suspect -- for the most part -- all disbelief at otherwise reasonably intelligent characters performing utterly insane activities …
reviewed Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid (Two-Di.... February 08, 2006
posted in Movie Hype
Historically, it would be easy to go on and on about PAT GARRETT AND BILLY THE KID. Much has been made of this Old West legend -- the stuff of great American myth, and, while this story has been given …
reviewed Female Prisoner #701 - Scorpion. March 06, 2005
posted in Movie Hype
Female Prisoner #701 - Scorpion
Uttering as few words as possible, Nami Matsushima (played by the stunningly beautiful Meiko Kaji) dispenses with the pleasantries and builds a reasonably impressive body count by the end of "Female Prisoner …
reviewed Tae Guk Gi - The Brotherhood of War (.... February 16, 2005
posted in Movie Hype
Nations do not fight wars. Citizens fight them, and these citizens are honorable men and women who serve their country willingly or, as history shows, by decree of a desperate government.    As …
reviewed Dream Warrior (2007). January 07, 2005
posted in Movie Hype
Throughout the late 1950's and early 1960's, motion picture studios capitalized on the popularity of film by churning out hundreds of B movies. Most of these are forgettable, but, every so often, a picture …
reviewed Zhou Yu's Train (2004). November 12, 2004
posted in Movie Hype
ZHOU YU'S TRAIN is the type of film that may -- just may -- require repeat viewing in order to take in all the thia story has to offer: if you blink -- much like the effect of the quickly passing scenery …
reviewed The Punisher (2004). November 07, 2004
posted in Movie Hype
It's hard to know what to make of THE PUNISHER, Marvel's counterpoint to DC Comics' THE BATMAN. Both characters are vigilantes; both characters have been turned into who they are due to the criminal deaths …
