Christopher Lambert, Ed Harris

Columbia/Tri-Star, 1990

Very good
I think it is a very good movie. It is based on real facts, in times of communism in Poland and it shows the strong catholic faith of the people there and how that would play an important role in the fall of communism.

Our Mutual Friend (1998) (3pc)

Paul McGann, Keeley Hawes

BBC Warner, 2000

Engaging and intriguing, intelligent and fun
I love this movie. I first saw it on PBS, and only because a family member made me do it. I'm not a PBS'er by nature, but once I got into this, I was hooked. This is a Dickens' novel that I can't believe I'd never heard of before, because it's easily one of his ...

Topsy Turvy

Allan Corduner, Dexter Fletcher

Polygram USA Video, 2000

Delicious!
This film is a feast both for the eyes and the ears. The costumes and settings allow us a glimpse into upper middle-class life in Victorian England. Every detail, from the box on a tall pole that was a telephone to the ladies' pendulous wire-framed bustles, is perfect. ...

Secrets & Lies

Timothy Spall, Brenda Blethyn

20th Century Fox, 2000

Quick ship - Perfect Condition
This is a classic movie - one most everyone should own. Anyone should be able to relate to something in the movie. It is so well directed and acted that I tend to get lost in the reality of the story. It would be a dis-service to applaud one actor over another. ...

The Last Samurai

Tom Cruise, Ken Watanabe

Warner Home Video, 2004

Great Flick about the toll war takes on the people who fight it
While this movie may be set in Japan during it's early industialization, at the end of the Samurai's reign (don't take that literally), that is not what this movie is about. For anyone who's interested in what went on historically at the time, and it's acuracy, go ...

My House in Umbria

Maggie Smith, Ronnie Barker

Hbo Home Video, 2003

5 Stars for Maggie Smith one of the best actresses of our times
This is a movie of hope and healing. Maggie Smith plays Mrs. Emily Delahunty, a English woman living out in the beautiful countryside of Umbria, Italy. She goes to do her monthly shopping, taking a train and there's a bomb on the train. Most of the people in the ...

Chicken Run

Mel Gibson, Timothy Spall

Dreamworks Video, 2000

Poeltry in Motion
It's a bird! It's a plane! It's a bunch of dimwitted chickens in a makeshift aircraft! Who knew chickens could organize and outwit humans? Veddy British and utterly charming, Chicken Run will make you think about freedom, friendship, loyalty, determination, courage, ...

Quadrophenia

Phil Daniels, Leslie Ash

Rhino / Wea, 1991

Teenage Wasteland
There are any number of reasons why rock concept albums do not necessarily translate to cinema, but director Franc Roddam takes the double-album of the same name from The Who and delivers a classic and timeless exploration of rebellion and turf warfare. With the ...

Love's Labours Lost

Alfred Bell, Richard Clifford

Walt Disney Video, 2001

Branagh,Cole Porter,Irving Berlin and The Bard as if they,ve always been together!
Kenneth Branagh never ceases to amaze me or disappoint me when this great Shakesperean actor/director takes one of The Bard's plays and works his magic and whimsy and brings Shakespeare anew to the big screen.HENRY V,HAMLET,MUCH ADO ABOUT NOTHING and now LOVE"S ...

All Or Nothing (2002) (Ws Dol)

Timothy Spall, Lesley Manville

MGM (Video & DVD), 2003

don't like it? go watch legally blonde instead.
how is "poor people, weak people, unsmart people, unhappy people, unsane people, violent people, fat people, ugly people" like a cliche? if people want 'a smile' there are plenty of (cliched) films out there about rich, talented, beautiful, perfect, boring people to ...

Adventures of Young Indiana Jones, Chapter 11 - Oganga, The Giver and Taker of Life

Sean Patrick Flanery, George Hall

Paramount, 1999

Absolutely the very best of the entire series of Young Indy
This one ranks as my personal favorite of the entire series George did. Frank Durabont (The Shawshank Redemption) offers a compelling study of human nature both at its best and at its worst (albeit with good intent). In this psychological tale, Indy confronts the ...

Adventures of Young Indiana Jones, Chapter 17 - Masks of Evil

Sean Patrick Flanery, George Hall

Paramount, 1999

Just one question.
Yes, I thought this was a great episode. Action packed, scary and fun. However I have one question for all the "moms" out there who were so shocked and surprised by how dark and scary this episode was when they showed it to their little kiddies... DID YOU EVEN BOTHER ...

Shooting the Past (Box Set)

Lindsay Duncan, Timothy Spall

Wgbh Boston, 2001

Shooting the Past: brilliant drama by Stephen Poliakoff
This is a truly special drama by Poliakoff....it is absolutely gripping, funny, poignant and believable.....Lindsay Duncan is superb....Poliakoff has many of the same actors and actresses in his different works...and they are always good. I saw this when it first came ...
