Band Of Brothers is the finest made-for-tv program I have ever seen.

I have to give this a 4 star rating however due to the diffuculty getting the discs loose from the case. I have broken 1 disc holder and fear cracking a disc in the future.

This re-imagining of L. Frank Baum's classic, The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, is not all sweetness and light. But neither is it laden with the grim-jawed cynicism of Frank Maguire's Wicked. And it's hard to classify it as fantasy, not with all the steampunk elements and cross-cultural references that make this Oz more dimensional than the original. It's more of an immersion in a completely different world, designed to upset expectations and put your brain on a psychic tilt-a-whirl.

D.G. (Zooey Deschanel) has been brought forward to the modern Midwest: a technical genius stuck in a rural farming community, she feels her conservative parents and miserable job stifling her. Only her artwork and her elaborate dreams keep her sane. When an army of black-clad stormtroopers suddenly attacks ... Read More

This movie was just bad. It doesn't even deserve the one star I was forced to give it. The only good think in it was Pacino, and even he was sub-par.

The story was simply a rehash of every other "out of time" movie. Nothing new happened, there were too many characters. So many that there was no way for each of them to contribute to the film in a meaningful way.

The acting was bad and the script poorly written. Some lines were just so unbelievable that I wanted to turn the movie off.

The biggest problem is that the characters were so badly written that you are never able to connect with any of them. You simply don't care when any of them dies, or gets hurt, or anything.

The best part of this movie was the credits... That's about it.

In an attempt to repeat the magic and financial success they had with `The Mighty Ducks' (92) two years previously, Disney turned their attention to major league baseball and the hometown Angels. Deciding to do a remake of the '51 film `Angels in the Outfield' which starred Paul Douglas they had all they needed available right from the beginning; a tried and true storyline to work from and access to a local, professional baseball team. What could make things more perfect? Well how about the fact that the team in question just happened to be named the Angels fitting perfectly into the title and theme of the proposed film! Ahh..., the genius of the Disney machine is a beautiful thing to observe isn't it?

The end result of their endeavors, `Angels in the Outfield' is definitely a kid friendly film ... Read More

Samir Horn (Cheadle) is supplying detonators to an Islamic terrorist group when a FBI raid kills or captures everyone at the compound. FBI agents Roy Clayton (Pearce) and Max Archer (McDonough) take the survivors into custody. While in prison, Samir and the terrorist leader Omar (Taghmaoui) form a bond, and when Omar makes his escape, he takes Samir with him. Now, Samir is an inside man who can stop an major attack on U. S. soil. He is so deep undercover that only one person, Carter (Daniels) knows about him. Now, he must find a way to stop the attack and get out before it is too late.

"Traitor" is a top notch drama with some action sprinkled in. Don Cheadle is excellent as always as the conflicted Muslim who can stop a massacre. The story is timely and intelligent. A focus of the movie is the difference ... Read More

Used Price: $1.40

This movie was made with a sort of cynicism that drained the life out any real passion for making it. By focusing too much on the 'bad' side of America during the War in the Pacific, Clint Eastwood leaves the viewer with their own battle fatigue. Jumping from the war to modern times and back again and again during the whole movie was like being drug through the mud having to endure another one of hollywood leftist's anti-American rantings.

Poorly made and although it had potential, the movie will leave you wondering what message it is the viewer is supposed to swallow. The general message is: 'dislike your country for standing up to Imperial Japan, because underneath it all we were all just a bunch of western materialists at heart and that we should have lost' - I think.

This Star Trek film was the best one I have seen altogether. I loved this one very much. The story continues in an on going conflict with the Borg and is exceptionally layed out in a great story concept. The effects, the directing, and the music scores all tie together to make this Star Trek epic a collectible to view over and over again. Jonathan Frakes definitely knows how to direct a Star Trek film and knows what the fans want to see through his eyes. He did great! I recommend this one for all Trek fans to buy.

Seriously, there is so much mindless drivel on tv that this series should NEVER have been cancelled! Well acted (personally I believe that Donnie Wahlberg is as good as his brother, he just doesn't get the big roles), well directed, neat camera angels. Just all around good.
I'm looking into downloading the few episodes from the doomed season 2.
This series is well worth the money and multiple viewings.
