1.Pleasantville (New Line Platinum Series) starring: Tobey Maguire, Reese Witherspoon, William H. Macy, Joan Allen, Jeff Daniels directed by: Gary Ross June 01, 2004
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $2.98
Pleasantville starring Tobey Maguire and Reese Witherspoon is a good comedy/drama but I was expecting so much more. The two leads are so talented and Joan Allen and Jeff Daniels bring realism to their roles. The problem I have with this film is the slow pace, it feels too long and dragged out and the black and white is kind of distracting when color is introduced halfway into the film. Interesting flick but poorly excuated.

2.Cruel Intentions 3 starring: Kerr Smith, Kristina Anapau, Nathan Wetherington, Melissa Yvonne Lewis, Natalie Ramsey directed by: Scott Ziehl May 25, 2004

First put, this movie has nothing to do with cruel intentions. It is a disgrace to its name and to be associated with it. The only relevance is the mentioning of the 2 main characters from the last 2 films relating to the main female character. That's it!!! What a shame! The first movie was the BEST!!! The second...well, it was a pretty decent prequel, thought production value was like a grade-B movie. This third has a better presentation than the second, but the storyline sucks so bad!!! The characters are very annoying, especially the 2 college guys. The ending is just a waste. STAY away from this 3rd installment!!!

3.Legends of Jazz: Showcase (DVD/CD) starring: Ramsey Lewis, Al Jarreau, Kurt Elling, Chris Botti, Marcus Miller directed by: Jack Ginay April 25, 2006

This is a masterfully produced disc. When you put this in your player and the theme music starts, you know you are in for a great night of jazz. What truly makes this collection compelling is the well-balanced list of performances. There are artists new and old, well-known and not so well-known, from a surprisingly varied pool of jazz sub-genres: fusion, bebop, swing, latin, and bossa. There is even a blues performance thrown in. The performances themselves are mostly very good, with the occasional eye-opening one mixed in such as Marcus Miller's Panther. The production value of the disc is fantastic too. I would've loved this even on VHS because it is ultimately about the music; but there is something to be said about the excellent high definition video and sound. This is truly ... Read More

This flick was released under a different title, so it remains a sealed item, in my collection of his work.

I appreciate the fair warnings about the transfer. I got beat-to-the-punch when someone else stole the only VHS copy I knew of, from the Wherehouse in the late eighties. So, when I happened upon the Laserdisc I added it to my collection of Champagne for Caesar and Susan Slept Here. They seemingly could also only be had in this format, which I'm now grateful for having excellent transfers of all three movies. With such excellent sources as these Laserdiscs, you wonder what could be the problem with making a decent DVD. Champagne for Caesar is also a lousy DVD transfer but it doesn't cost 3.98, it's 22.99. Well, that being said, this is a marvelous movie. Everyone in it is wonderful though you'd almost have to say this was written expressly for Richard Portnow and John Glover, two extraordinarily gifted and undervalued character ... Read More
