1.Something's Gotta Give starring: Jack Nicholson, Diane Keaton, Keanu Reeves, Amanda Peet, Frances McDormand directed by: Nancy Meyers June 08, 2004
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $0.21
Excellent condition, Great movie too. A brand new DVD for the price of a used. Can't beat it.

2.Critical Condition starring: Richard Pryor, Rachel Ticotin, Rubén Blades, Maria Cardinale, Joe Mantegna directed by: Michael Apted March 21, 1995
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $0.60
Did Richard have an obligation just to finish a film for the studio. Personally, I think Richard Pryor's talents were never fully used in film. Check him out in Harlem Nights. The man could be the embodiment of Cool. If they only knew.

3.Turbulence starring: Ray Liotta, Lauren Holly, Brendan Gleeson, Hector Elizondo, Rachel Ticotin directed by: Robert Butler February 03, 1998
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $0.01
The film open on a city street. A man walks along the street, he is being watched by the police. Is he a suspect in a murder case? [Why the delay in the arrest?] He will be transported by air back to Los Angeles. Conversations tell about the flight personnel, and the passengers. The weather ahead is bad, the flight will change course. But something will happen to add drama to this story. Can everything that can go wrong happen? What if something happens to the pilot? What if a clever criminal gains control of the airplane? Will he be driven to kill again to increase the drama? [Even if it does not fit his profile?] Weaver's conversation adds more drama. "Do not open the door!" The empty airplane has an eerie spooky atmosphere [added drama]. Weaver's questions show his clever insanity. ... Read More

4.Falling Down starring: Michael Douglas, Robert Duvall, Barbara Hershey, Tuesday Weld, Rachel Ticotin directed by: Joel Schumacher July 14, 1994
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $0.01
Michael Douglas' FALLING DOWN caused quite a stir when it was released in 1993. Many saw it as speaking for the Angry White Man flailing about in modern society, many saw it as racist, sexist, classist. . .pick your "ist". I always saw it as the story of a mildly disturbed man who finally comes to the breaking point. Douglas' William Foster (D-Fens) is one of his very best and most thoughtful performances. What could have been a mere cartoon becomes much, much more. A telling moment in his breakdown comes when he's cut his hand climbing over barbed wire surrounding an obscenely rich plastic surgeon's estate. Bill encounters a caretaker's family, who immediately assumes the worst. Bill relates this family immediately to his own broken marriage and his own dearly-loved daughter, and, on the verge of tears, ... Read More

5.Warden of Red Rock starring: James Caan, David Carradine, Rachel Ticotin, Billy Rieck, Gisela Sanchez directed by: Stephen Gyllenhaal June 05, 2001
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $2.95
This is a good solid movie with occasional 'gems in the rock', particularly the development of the loving relationship that slowly builds up between warden John Flinders ( James Caan) and the widow McVale (Rachel Ticotin), whose first husband had gone to the gallows, for murder. The setting is Arizona Territory 1910, as the West was 'a changin,' and there is even an early scene of a motor car in this otherwise conventional western. If you want sex scenes and plenty of foul language, then don't bother with this movie. However if you want to watch a good western with fine acting by Caan and Ticotin in particular, then this is worthwhile. Personally, I think the slow inter personal development between warden and widow makes this flick far more interesting than watching some mad bedroom romp and is ... Read More

6.Fort Apache the Bronx starring: Paul Newman, Edward Asner, Ken Wahl, Danny Aiello, Rachel Ticotin directed by: Daniel Petrie February 21, 1995
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $0.60
In the war zone of the South Bronx, the police of the 41st Precinct have the worst absentee record in the city, the most disability record claims, the least conviction per arrests, and there's nobody doing anything and the men aren't motivated... The first petition of the new captain Dennis Connolly (Ed Asner) was to make it clear that there is zero progress on the investigation on the murders of two policemen (killed on the opening of the film by an addicted hooker played nicely by Pam Grier). For the good officer the case must be cleared even if his men have to take extraordinary measures to clear it... Murphy (Newman) comes from three generations of cops... All his friends are cops... He gets drunk every night... He is essentially honest and he doesn't trust anyone but his partner, Corelli ... Read More

7.Don Juan DeMarco starring: Johnny Depp, Marlon Brando, Faye Dunaway, Géraldine Pailhas, Bob Dishy directed by: Jeremy Leven April 16, 1996
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $0.01
The casting was spot on. Mercurial Johnny Depp can be anyone, I believe he IS Don Juan De Marco. Even at 300# plus, Brando still has it, Dunaway is and will always be a beautiful woman, and the combination obviously worked. The visit of Don Juans mother from Mexico throws a spanner in the Grandmas very believeable story. In the end, does it really matter what IS, when you can have what you want just by looking with different eyes. The music by Michael Kamen is superb! I have ordered the sound track. If you don't want to get up and dance (with your dog, if necessary)you just have no fantasy or romance in your soul. It is a pity that this movie is relatively unknown.Everyone I have shown it to has been touched. I'm just glad it's available.

8.Con Air starring: Nicolas Cage, John Cusack, John Malkovich, Ving Rhames, Nick Chinlund directed by: Simon West May 26, 1998
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $0.01
My wife told me the whole story before watching it. It sounded interesting. But once I saw John Malkovich I groaned? This is supposed to be the bad guy? He's laughable. Who would be scared of that geek? Seriously, I was more entertained with my wife telling me the story.

9.Man On Fire starring: Denzel Washington, Christopher Walken, Dakota Fanning, Marc Anthony, Radha Mitchell directed by: Tony Scott September 14, 2004
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $2.26
Good story that unfortunately can be true. Denzel Washington did as expected a great job. Very emotional story about how a hard case former intel officer with a questionable past softens by the affection of a little girl. A movie that is worth watching several times.. Try not to have any distractions while watching as there are many details that may be missed such as facial expessions and other manerisms.

10.Total Recall starring: Arnold Schwarzenegger, Sharon Stone, Michael Ironside, Rachel Ticotin, Ronny Cox directed by: Paul Verhoeven December 14, 1993
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $0.01
I wish Amazon would add sub scales for PQ, AQ, overall movie and other criteria, so that, with the advent of Blu-Ray, technical as well as cinematic aspects would be rated separately. What if you love a film, but hate the transfer? I had never seen all of Total Recall, and as a fan of older Sci-Fi and action films, I thought the effects were fun and advanced for the time period. Despite Arnold's mediocre acting skills, I am still a fan of his films, because they're so "over the top" and action packed. This film from the 90's was a cool "throwback" for me, and I enjoyed the sound and visual effects, as well as the story line of implanted memories, vicarious living etc. The storyline has often been mimicked by movies that followed in the next decade and for historical purposes and perspective this film is interesting as its themes ...
