1.Bronx Tale starring: Patrick Borriello, Lillo Brancato, Francis Capra, Clem Caserta, Robert D'Andrea

VHS : Bronx Tale
Do not buy from Amazon marketplace vendor MOVIESONSALE1. They advertised Bronx Tale as wide screen but sent the movie in full screen version with misleading packaging. Now I know why their rating is only 89% satisfaction. They collect money and deposit it and accrue interest and wait for the buyer to complain. I waited over a month to watch this movie and I went ballistic. After contacting the seller they claim they will send me a prepaid envelope and a full refund.

VHS : Renaissance Man
I'm not a huge fan of comedies, nor do I particularly care to watch Danny DeVito movies, but Renaissance Man is really good. It has a wonderful story, is well acted, and it is very motivational. RM sheds a positive light on the values of motivational instruction. DeVito portrays a down on his luck ad man who needs motivation of his own. He takes a job a basic training base and is given a handful of troops to prepare for the basics of basic. The movie is as much about his need for inspiration as it is about the troops whom he inspires. He uses Shakespeare to motivate his troops, and it works marvelously. Great story, very good acting, and inspirational. Highly recommended.

VHS : The Adventures of Pluto Nash
OK, so it's not "The Twelth Night", Eddie Murphy is good for some laughs in a gangster comedy set in the Moon colonies of the future. Rosario Dawson is a great, down-to-earth (Luna?) foil to Murphy's brand of humor and energy. John Cleese's role is small, but brilliantly executed. The Scottish crooner will have you shaking your head, but that's OK.

The whole sci-fi element was forced, with jokes and visual gags about life on the moon and in the future that felt 'stuck-in' at the last moment, and production values that took fairly good ideas and made them look cheap and sloppy.

So it won't show up on Masterpiece Theater, it's still good fun.

the movie is great, but just like they did on DVD, the unrated extended edition will be released after people buy this version

VHS : Provocateur
The spy is from the "other" side and she is dedicated. The movie shows North Korea working on it's nuclear weapons program with evil intent, but it also reveals the rot in our own culture.

VHS : Table One
Four men, displeased with the overcrowded, underlit and noisy night club where they gather, decide to pool their funds in order to open a bar and grill, taking with them from their old hangout two favoured employees, bartender Freddie (Kohl Suddeth) and doorman Xavier (Luis Guzmán), but the entrepreneurs soon learn that the success toward which they look forward is elusive. Because their original seed funding - $100,000 - is insufficient, Freddie persuades a family member, mobster Frankie "Chips" (Bert Young), to contribute a matching amount, but after a successful opening night, the business suffers a sharp dip in receipts. The quartet is then forced to yield to a suggestion from Frankie that their type of operation be changed to an adult cabaret featuring topless dancers and, despite the vigourous ... Read More

VHS : Sticks
Here is a unique cinematic province: smuggling of highest quality Cuban cigars into the United States, activity that apes marketing of illegal narcotics, with the main prize being Fidel Castro's favoured "Mariposas" that sell for $10/25000 per box, and the possession of which stimulates various groups in the script to willingly risk both danger and death. First-time director Brett Mayer, who also scripts, developed the concept while filming a documentary in Cuba, the featured role going to Lillo Brancato as Lenny Prince, a "stick (cigar) man" who deals black market smokes from Cuba to his tony Hollywood-based clientèle. The kingpin who controls the West Coast black market cigar trade is Domino (Leo Rossi) into whose private Hollywood club Lenny sneaks to vend his product, and when Prince's friend Mark ... Read More
