Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)This boxed set represents the second half of the Astaire/Rogers series, and in these five films the two stars have shed their early gauchness and uncertainty and become a real team capable of anything from high comedy to moments of tragedy. The set begins with what many (including Ginger) have regarded...
Harry Potter A l'Ecole Des Sorciers (French Version of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone) Review
Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)I find reading the Harry Potter books in french has been a great way to saturate myself with french words. I started out having to look almost every word on the page up and now I can read almost an entire chapter without picking up my dictionary or english copy. What a great idea, I wish I would have...
Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (2002) Review
Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)Go through the soundtrack listing before reading this review, because the former spoils everything there is to spoil.While not necessarily the most vital feature of the `Harry Potter' films, one of the most important considerations is perhaps the feel of each movie, which is one of the most immediate...

Charlie Rose with Maggie Smith (March 1, 2002) Review
Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)Maggie Smith is her own woman. Her passion and fears for her career as an actress come through during her time with Charlie Rose. She is and has been at the zenith of her acting career and yet, for the wanna-be in the audience, she brings the realities of the "specie" to the head of the class. No rose...
Harry Potter DVD Set of 5 Movies: The Sorcerer's Stone, Chamber of Secrets, Prisoner of Azkaban, Goblet of Fire, and Order of the Phoenix Review
Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)The Harry Potter story and movies are great but this boxset is a complete waste of money if you're expecting something unique to this boxset. It's just the leftover main feature discs from other 2-disc boxsets because the discs are the exact same discs when orignally released as individual movies; which...

Grambling's White Tiger (1981) Review
Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)As far as I know, this film and the volatile 1970 pic "Halls of Anger" are the only films I know of that deal with the pressures of White students who integrate all-Black schools. This is an account of Jim Gregory's integration of Grambling College's football team in 1968 and the predictable problems...
All-American Basketball: The Fundamentals of Ball Handling Review
Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)The video quality was not as good as I've seen comparing same price points. The sound of the hosts voice was very low and I listened to it on head phones. He was very monotone as if reading from a card. He did play college ball though and was very good. The information given was above average for someone...
Lagrimas Del Corazon (The Man Who Cried) Review
Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)"The man who cried" the title itself says such a lot of things to the viewer, an amazing performence by Johnny Depp who played the role of a man who can commnunicate with eyes, one of his best performences ever indeed. The chemistry between Ricci and Depp is excellent and beyond words. The film has its...

While not exactly bust-a-gut funny, it is warmly amusing throughout with a couple of classic lines & scenes (the perplexing storeroom, the "letch", the well, the all-night Wam session etc.), played to perfection with ease and charm...

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)The ultimate frat party or cult film - "Thunderpants" is quickly gaining steam as the new "Airplane!" or "Rocky Horror Picture Show." I was blown away by the production values and cast considering the puerile subject matter, while repeat viewings reveal the humor to be much more nuanced than just some...
