Stop! Or My Mom Will Shoot [DVD]

Incredibly Bad Movie, But Better than Expected Dvd
on April 30, 2008
Posted by: kevman79
'Stop or My Mom Will Shoot' is probably Sylvester Stallone's worse film ever ('Rhinestone' would be a close second). However, this is a very well put together dvd considering the quality of the film. Widescreen with a few notable bonuses.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Decent Action Movie
on April 30, 2008
Posted by: kevman79
'Broken Arrow' is by no means a bad film. It has some good action sequences and a fair storyline. It just doesn't stand out as an exceptional experience when compared to some other better films of the genre. Decent Blue-Ray release here, but might not be worth it considering the regular dvd is only $6.99.

John Woo's first big-budget Hollywood film, Broken Arrow, comes to DVD with a widescreen transfer that preserves the original theatrical aspect ratio of 2.35:1. One English soundtrack is rendered in Dolby Digital 5.1, while a second English track and a French soundtrack are rendered in Dolby Digital Surround. English and Spanish subtitles are accessible. Extra features include the original theatrical trailer. Genre enthusiasts and Woo fans will want to view this disc, but there might not be enough on it to interest others.

This sequel to the popular Jean-Claude Van Damme vehicle centers on the exploits of David Sloan (Sasha Mitchell) the younger brother of the two fighters (Van Damme and Dennis Alexio) who died in the first installment. As this episode begins, David has given up competition and is running a kickboxing school for underprivileged urban kids. His life changes abruptly when the villainous fight manager who murdered his brother shows up and forces him back into the ring. Fortunately, David's Zen master shows up for spiritual and moral support. The ensuing fight scenes are quite bloody and violent.

Bad Sequel and Dvd
on April 30, 2008
Posted by: kevman79
'Kickboxer 2' is a sequel that just fails miserably in trying to recreate any of the magic of the Van Damme original. Not only that, but this dvd is not particularly good in terms of quality. Full-screen only, skip it.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Bill Murray, John Candy, Harold Ramis, Warren Oates. The Army wants you but they got way less than they bargained for when John Winger enlists to try and change his losing ways and damn near causes WWIII. 1981/color/107 min/R/widescreen.

Bill Murray gives his usual good performance in this comedy about joining the army. Good dvd and bonus features.

Jeremy Kagan's family-friendly adventure drama The Journey of Natty Gann comes to DVD with a standard full-frame transfer that fails to preserve the original theatrical aspect ratio of the film. The English soundtrack is rendered in Dolby Digital Surround. There are no subtitles, but the soundtrack is closed-captioned. There are no supplemental materials of any consequence, marking this as a pedestrian release from Disney/Buena Vista that will be of little interest to anyone other than a genre enthusiast.

Great Movie, Poor Dvd
on April 30, 2008
Posted by: kevman79
'The Journey of Natty Gann' is a very touching and heartwarming tale that the whole family can enjoy. A movie like this deserves better dvd treatment than it has been given here by Disney. Nonetheless, still recommended!

This fantasy-comedy for the whole family gets a respectable presentation for its release on DVD. Little Monsters has been transferred to disc in pan-and-scan format at the full-screen aspect ratio of 1.33:1. The audio has been mastered in Dolby Digital Stereo; the dialogue is in English, with optional subtitles in English, French and Spanish. The movie's original trailer has been included as a bonus.

Ok Movie, Bland Dvd
on April 30, 2008

'Little Monsters' is an ok movie, kids might like it, but the dvd is as bland as they get. Full-screen only and no bonus except for the trailer.

George P. Cosmatos directed Sylvester Stallone in the action film Cobra. The movie comes to DVD with a widescreen anamorphic transfer that preserves the original theatrical aspect ratio of 1.85:1. An English soundtrack is rendered in Dolby Digital 5.1, a French soundtrack has been recorded in Dolby Digital Surround, and Spanish and English soundtracks are available in Dolby Digital Mono. There are no subtitles on the disc, but the English 5.1 track is closed-captioned. Supplemental materials include a commentary track recorded by the director, seven different trailers, and production notes. This low-priced DVD will please fans of the film.

Good Dvd, Movie Could Have Been Better
on April 30, 2008
Posted by: kevman79
'Cobra' isn't one of Stallone's best pictures, but it's not his worst either. For all the films faults and inconsistencies, it still manages to conjure up some adrenaline-rushed action scenes that will please fans of the genre. Apparently, the film was considerably violent in its original form and had to be cut down in order to avoid an X rating. Good widescreen dvd here, including a feature length audio commentary by director Cosmatos.

Krull was a lot of fun when it met with a Star Wars-hungry audience back in 1983, and it's a great deal of fun on DVD as well. Fitted with a beautiful, rich 2.35:1 presentation and dynamic Dolby Digital Sound, the DVD seemingly delivers a viewer right into the lap of director Peter Yates' fantasy world. Since the movie wasn't a blockbuster on the level of the films that inspired it, it's a treat that the DVD is packed with great supplemental material. The stylish menus are admirable eye candy, though it's unusual that the movie's score doesn't play after one accesses the "Special Features" area. "Journey to Krull" is a nostalgic, blurb-heavy, 20-minute promotional featurette narrated by Tom Bosley; it's worth a look for fans. Two full-length audio commentaries are available. The first features Yates and three of the movie's stars; Yates and company are friendly and informative, putting the movie and its action scenes into proper perspective. The second commentary track is an odd advertisement, as a monotone narrator reads from a script; it's hard to enjoy. Four high-quality photo galleries present cast portraits, behind-the-scenes images, design and concept artwork, and vintage advertising material. "Talent Files" presents the usual filmographies for Yates and three primary actors. A theatrical trailer sits alongside two trailers from like-minded films. All chapters can be instantly selected via chapter titles, numbers, and film clips from the "Chapters" menu.

Great Dvd, Disappointing Movie
on April 30, 2008
Posted by: kevman79
Here is an absolutely outstanding special edition dvd to a movie that was not so outstanding. 'Krull' presented a cool story, beautiful production design, and mediocre performances. Unfortunately, the whole movie is just kind of boring, and the action sequences quite disappointing. It is a movie that could have been so much more. Displayed here nicely though in its original 2.35:1 anamorphic widescreen ratio.
