This is a great version of the well known story. The movie is enchanting and takes you to another world. Love to stick this movie in while working around the house.

This series is a fascinating look at the tremendous heights of empirical glory and despotism that kicked off the Roman Empire. From the brilliant government of Augustus to the mad and criminal excesses of Caligula the early years of the Roman Empire are brought to life in brilliant detail and color through the eyes of the wretched Claudius. Ignored, ridiculed and despised for his limp and his stutter, he witnesses and records the vast web of power, murder, ambition, intrigue and madness that engulfs Rome's royal family. Although not as visually colorful or explicit as HBO's ROME, I Claudius does not disappoint. The acting is superb; Derek Jacobi and John Hurt in particular are brilliant as the best and worst of the Claudian dynasty. I, Claudius is definitive proof that stellar writing and acting ...

This is a film I can watch again and again, primarily because I love the music. Piaf was an amazing force and she's quite a heroine in France. The casting for her role could not have been better and the script stayed true to the real facts of her life. This is an excellent period piece. She is an inspiration.

Persuasion is my second favorite Austen book and movie. The story is wonderful, and this production is subtle and perfectly paced - just like the book. The choice of actors is perfect - just as I imagined when reading the book for the first time.

I bought this DVD accidentally. One moment I was looking to buy the DVD Persuasion, and the the next thing I realized I had ordered Sense & Sensibility. SO far I haven't decided what to do with the 2 I ordered.

Used Price: $12.99

"Mother of Tears" was, without a doubt, one of the most uninspired films I've ever watched. The movie consisted of very little substance and absolutely no style. In fact, the movie never seemed like an actual movie to me. Instead, it just seemed like several independently shot scenes shoestringed together by what was supposed to be a storyline. The trouble is NOTHING seemed to connect.

This was director Dario Argento's third installment to his story of the "Three Witches." The first movie (and by far the best) in the trilogy was "Susperia." The second was "Inferno," and this little stinker was the third.

Asia Argento who (besides being daddy-director's little girl) cannot act her way out of a wet paper sack, plays Sarah, who works at a local Rome museum. She and a friend ... Read More

If I could give this zero stars, I would.

The entirety of the movie is mindless, nonsensical tripe. It makes no sense WHATSOEVER and isn't even funny. Not once! I feel considerably dumber for having watched it and for having been swindled out of $7.50.

This is quite literally the WORST movie I've ever seen. And I've seen Plan 9 From Outer Space (that was at least humorous for its poorly filmed B-movie-ness)!

That people actually enjoy this movie or pay their hard-earned money to watch it makes me truly wonder about the future of our society...

Hot Fuzz rocked, but this one was a little slow and lacked a plot. It wa s a little long winded. It did have some funny lines that made me laugh out loud, but it was not as funny as I thought it would be. PQ/AQ 4/5.

I have seen this movie (all 7+ hours) probably 8 times! The Tenth Kingdom is full of imagination and fun, and keeps you wanting more after its over. I can't wait to find out if there will be a sequel, the characters are so intriguing that I find myself dying to know what happens to Virginia, Wolfe, and Tony! If you like feel good adventures and fantasy, I highly recommend The Tenth Kingdom.
