Robert Redford and Helen Mirren star in this intelligent thriller, which gets a well-rounded presentation on DVD. The Clearing has been given a letterboxed transfer to disc in its original widescreen aspect ratio, and has also been enhanced for anamorphic playback on 16 x 9 monitors. The original English-language audio has been mastered in Dolby Digital 5.1, while alternate dubbed tracks in Spanish and French appear in Dolby Digital Surround; optional subtitles are available in English and Spanish. Bonus materials include a commentary track, a selection of deleted scenes, a short documentary on the making of the movie, the original trailer, and more.

the film was good for the most part, the way they put it all together and how it all turned out in the end. i liked it but it did have its flaws and listing them would only ruin the movie for someone who intends on seeing it. its a realistic movie.
I would recommend this to a friend!

this film did not really have a point to it. ricci really thinned out for the role and did not look much like herself which was a good thing and jackson was looking a little old but hes still a great actor.

Package Description: So you think you know the story of Little Red Riding Hood. Don't be too sure... One of your favorite fairy tales is turned upside-down and inside-out in what the LA Times called "high-energy, imaginative entertainment." With irreverent storytelling, spunk and wit, Hoodwinked delivers a comedy caper for the young, the young at heart and everyone in between. When the police arrive at Granny's cottage in the woods to answer a domestic disturbance call, it looks like just another open-and-shut case. But Red, Granny, the Big Bad Wolf and the Woodsman are not your usual suspects, as they have their own dark secrets, wily deceptions and conflicting accounts of the crime. Together, they must put aside their differences and find their own original twist on Happily Ever After in their "raucous, genre-busting, animated gem (Entertainment Weekly, The Must List)."

Based on the Alexander Dumas extended novel of the same name, The Count of Monte Cristo is a difficult story to adapt because of it's length. The DVD has a commentary track from director Kevin Reynolds, a feature on the writing of Dumas, a feature on the choreography of the fight scenes, and a feature on the production design. There are also deleted scenes, choreography on the final duel, an examination of the sound design of Edward's escape, and more. The film is in widescreen 1.85:1 aspect ratio and audio is THX certified with English 5.1 and French 5.1 Surround Sound, and Spanish subtitles.

This game is nothing like the super nintendo or sega genesis version. I was very disappointed in it. I did not like the graphics. The game was not too hard to play either which was its upside. But I am angry I wasted the money on it. I wish they would have stayed a little closer to the original games and some of the storybooks.

My son wanted this game becuase he loved the movie. He really enjoys playing it and I dont mind it either. Its hard to get into a game you hate playing but this one was not that type of game. We both have fun playing this game. I would recommend it to anyone with children.

Precision gameplay is now a hands-length away. The Wii Nunchuk Controller is used in conjunction with the Wii Remote and connects easily via the expansion port to get you into the swing of things. When combined, the input device duo becomes your sword and shield to combat charging assailants, your defense against a brawny linebacker and so much more. Because the Wii Remote and Nunchuk Controller are relatively dependent on each other, feel free to hold each controller in whichever hand is most comfortable. The ambidextrous design grants matchless accessibility for greater control over gameplay.Formulated with the same motion-sensing technology enabled in the Wii Remote controller, but with an analog stick to assist in character movement, the Wii Nunchuk thrusts you into a fully immersive gaming experience. In several games, you can use the analog stick to move your playable character, while the Wii Remote performs a specific action, such as throwing a pass or aiming a weapon, for the utmost in teamwork. Contoured perfectly to fit in the palm of your hand, the Nunchuk Controller is also equipped with conveniently located buttons for lightning-quick access.

I bought 3 of these so I would have one for every remote. You have to have it for some games and when you have 4 people over you want one for each remote.

Well Worth the Money

I was a little unsure on buying this game. I heard a lot about it but the video's and screen shots I saw online made me unsure. I ended up buying it and it turned out to be one of the best games I have ever played. It has hundreds of side quests. One of the largest world maps I have ever seen. More caves, buildings, towns and ect you can enter and explore. The option to purchase homes in towns. Guilds you can join. I played this game and got so cought up in doing my own thing that I never started the accual game quest/ story line. I spent well over a hundred hours playing this game.
