Watching this movie, I could not help thinking that it was just a remake of Episode IV. Other than the gender change for both the (new) Luke and Darth characters, it was just too similar to hold my attention. Great special effects and other visual thrills force me to recommend this as a "must see", but be forewarned as to its duplication of the original.

I like Quentin Tarentino. I have no qualm about the graphic blood, the jumpy cutting (including flashbacks), or the subject matter. In the end, though, this movie had no heart - no motivation, no moral - and, truly, no ending. It is a three hour "slice of life." Released in 70mm, it is a visually beautiful piece, but one which, after viewing, I have to say "so?"

Nicely conceived account of how Hermann Melville got the idea for his book, "Moby Dick" - interviewing a survivor of a sailing ship that encountered a mighty whale. But this story is deeper: it contains the leadership struggle between sailors and carries the whale tail further by continuing with the struggle for survival by the crew. Good special effects and a fast paced script keeps this very entertaining.

I felt this last entry in the series was flat and left much to be desired. The heroine, Katniss, spent most of the movie just following others around and doing what she was told - not very inspiring for a leader and not very interesting to watch her as an actress. Add in the flaws and I cannot recommend this to anyone except those who need the closure.

Well acted, good character portrayals and good fight scenes make this worthwhile (even were it NOT part of the Rocky legacy). My only complaint (SPOILER COMING) is the ending: Been there/ done that with Rocky 1 and Rocky Balboa with the underdog protagonist "doing their best" and standing toe to toe with the champion.

SCTV (Second City Television) may be best known for Bob and Doug McKenzie's "Great White North" sketches. This movie, just re-released on Blu-ray, is hilarious and very entertaining. Not for the faint-of-heart, it pokes fun at many topics.

Although slightly outdated (1986), this movie is worth a watch. There are a lot of big names associated with this film, both acting and directing/producing. The Blu-ray version enhances the graphics and sound.

This movie had a fair amount of hype when it came out. To me, it is somewhat formulaic tale of exotic dancers(personality conflicts / trials & tribulations / etc.) but with the characters being male rather than female. After watching I passed it on.

Very entertaining TV series from BBC. As with most BBC productions (Dr. Who, Sherlock) the production values are very good: Actors, acting, sets, plots, etc. Well worth a look.

Although released 30 years ago, "My Science Project" continues to entertain. This Blu-ray version allows the special effects to really strut their stuff and drive the movie. Well acted, but Dennis Hopper steals the show with his portrayal of a high school science teacher.
