A Stellar, Hilarious Film!!!

Waiting, starring Ryan Reynolds is packed with hilarious innuendos and all out raunchy scenes. This film will leave you walking away with lines you'll repeat to friends and make inside jokes out of. Definitely relates to those who have worked in the hospitality industry. Basically "don't mess with those who handle your food!" All out hilarious flick would recommend to a mature audience. Watch for explicit scenes.
What's great about it: Gives true perspective to the hospitality industry
What's not so great: there are none!
I would recommend this to a friend!

awesome action film!

The acting in this movie can at times be unrealistic, but overall with classic actors like John Travolta, the movie has a great plot. The movie may seem slow at periods, but it draws out every emotion one can feel; empathy, love, anger, pity, and vengeance. I would recommend this movie to a crowd of teenagers or older.
What's great about it: great effects, unique plot
What's not so great: there are none!

This box set contains every episode from the first season of Entourage, the series that takes a look at the lives of celerity hangers-on. Each episode is presented in the original broadcast aspect ratio of 1.33:1. English, French, and Spanish soundtracks are rendered in Dolby Digital Stereo. Subtitles are available in all three of those languages as well. Supplemental materials include commentaries recorded by executive producers Doug Ellin and Larry Charles, and interviews with the cast and crew.

This HBO series is brilliant, with a great cast and brings out every type of emotion. Its great to see an actor act as an actor in general and get more of a behind the scenes perspective on hollywood drama. The character of Vince Chase is remarkable and very realistic. Would recommend to a mature audience.
What's great about it: Original perspective of a Hollywood Star

40 Days and 40 Nights, a film that is probably better than it has a right to be, comes to DVD with some nice results. The image, which is framed at the original aspect ratio of 1.85:1 and is anamorphic, is surprisingly strong. Colors are rather vivid and detailed while blacks are well represented. The lack of any distracting elements really shows here. The sound, which is a 5.1 English Dolby Digital track, is nothing to get excited about, but is still adequate for this kind of film. Dialogue is easy to understand while effects and music are not too overwhelming. As for extras, they are not extensive. This Miramax disc only includes a teaser trailer, and more importantly, a commentary track from director Michael Lehmann, producer Michael London, and screenwriter Robert Perez. They bounce off each other, joking, commenting, and analyzing their final product. If there is any complaint about this track, it's that they tend to blend together vocally and you can't tell who is who. It may not be the best commentary, but there is still plenty to gain from it. Overall, a nice effort. Maybe not an outstanding disc in all respects, but one that will probably please fans enough.

Unique approach to finding love here, where Josh Hartnett agrees to abstain from certain activities for 40 days for a bet. Of course, this is when he is tempted most. Very funny, would recommend this movie to any teenager and up!
What's great about it: Unique Love Story, very funny
What's not so great: a little unrealistic at times

This movie definitely makes you think with a stellar cast such as clive owen, jodie foster, and denzel washington. Never has anyone seen a robbery go down this intelligently. Would recommend to anyone, especially if you love a great psychological action movie!
What's great about it: makes you think, the plot is extremely original
What's not so great: could be confusing at times

Great Romantic Comedy

This movie takes place in the home of an L.A. film trailer owner and the home of an English journalist. Needless to say both women are unsuccessful with relationships and need a change of pace. By switching houses they find who they are and whats really important in life. Great story. Perfect to watch anytime of the year, not just the holidays!
What's great about it: great for both sexes, witty plot
What's not so great: a little unrealistic
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great Movie!

This movie is a realistic portrayal of the cut throat fashion magazine industry. What I appreciate about this movie is how they kept the lifestyle realistic. Meryll Streep renews her self and looks stunning in this film, as well as a rising star Anne Hathaway. Would recommend to anyone, but more specifically females interested in fashion and modeling.
What's great about it: Great plot, the fashion in this movie is awesome!
What's not so great: there are none!

This movie is the age-old story of love in the victorian english era. This movie did a great job of bringing Jane Austen's work to life. The plot is beautiful. If you love Jane Austen you will like this movie!
What's great about it: Great portrayal of the novel!

Along with 28 Days, the DVD of Notting Hill is one of the most satisfying and complete DVD packages for a romantic comedy. Starting with a widescreen, anamorphic transfer and Dolby Digital Surround and 5.1 Audio, the disc presents the film and its supplemental material in a lavish way that befits a Julia Roberts blockbuster. Extras like an entertaining commentary with director Roger Mitchell, producer Duncan Kenworthy, and writer Richard Curtis, production notes, and cast and crew biographies shed light on the making of the film and the people behind it, while the travel guide to the Notting Hill area, "Hugh Grant's Movie Tips" (which basically consists of Grant joking around with the crew, and the bookmarks that cue up the film's musical highlights capture Notting Hill's witty, romantic spirit and setting. Deleted scenes and the theatrical trailer round out this entertaining and substantial disc, which reaffirms that films other than special effects extravaganzas can make effective use of the format's extra features.
