I read recently that this is Harrison Ford's favourite movies out of those he has made. It's not difficult to see why. It is certainly a departure for him. Although he is the leading charcater in it he is far from his heroic self. In the film he is a "serious" character whose manic obsession with creating his perfect world endangers both himself and more importantly his young family. In a classic "over-reacher" narrative, Allie Fox (Ford) pushes beyond the accepted level for a married man whose priorities ought to be his family. The results are predictably disastrous. At once, Fox is both hero and villain, funny and scary, likeable and loathable, driven and yet misguided. I also read that the film was first offered to Jack Nicholson who declined yet ... Read More:

I used to have this on video years ago and have finally bought this on DVD and it's a fresh today as it was 18 years ago.

This is a cast of all ages from the late Jason Robards to Steve Martin to Diane Wiest to Keanu Reeves to River Pheonix (credited as Leaf Pheonix).

This is probably the best all-round performance that I've seen by Steve Martin, the entire cast put in excellent performances with a good variety of humour and drama which is often funny, touching and moving.

Ron Howard directs this very well indeed giving a large cast a good amount of screen time.

This is essentially a life film with a good amount of humour thrown in for good measure showing a wide variety of characters from one family ... Read More:

Whilst most of the reviews have said it all I still felt moved to add my 2 cents worth. Starting slowly and gently I was immediately comfortable with this movie but wondering if it was going to go anywhere. Perhaps it might lull you into a false sense of security and then explode into violence. There is humour and wit aplenty but for me it wasn't a comedy, more a tale of love and friendship and a healthy dose of real life. The characters are all immediately recognisable, be they American, British, or from any part of the world. The word comfortable returns again and gradually I was drawn into their small town world and felt like I lived there and wanted to know these people. The stars for me are Timothy Hutton, a real fave of mine and Natalie Portman. Their tenderly ... Read More:

As with all UMD's it loses the extras the DVD gives you but gives you the extra the DVD didn't give the abitilty to take the moive with you and it is super light plus the PSP is alos a game system.

The movie is crisp and perfect it may be many years old now but some of the 80's movie are great unlike the new ones filled CGI.

You probably know the plot and story but I will tell you anyway.

The Goonies are a group of kids about to lose thier home to development and be split up. They go on an adventure to find some pirate treasure and are followed by a trio of bungling crooks they outwit all of the booby traps set in thier way this is a great film to wath on a long trip and great value.

This may just be my favourite Woody film, despite it having none of the trademark humour of many of his films. It will certainly be, for this viewer, among the most enduring. Even the best jokes lose their potency, after all.

The plot is suggested very well by other reviews but what I feel worth elucidating is the depth of the central character, played by Gena Rowlands. Another Woman is not worth watching for witty one liners, cunning plot twists or even for a profound revelation about some grand human theme. It is about a woman discovering another woman to the one she thought she was. It is never clear which if either she really is. She, and the viewer, is skilfully left in the depths of quandary about this.

Upon reflection - and reflection is required ... Read More:

I Shot Andy Warhol [1995]

The film's title is self-explanatory: this is the story of militant lesbian feminist Valerie Solanas' violent attack on the pope of pop art, Andy Warhol, on June 3, 1968. It was partly the forthrightness of the title that so enraged Lou Reed, a friend of Warhol's in the 1960s and lead singer of the Warhol-produced Velvet Underground: "How would people feel about a film titled 'I Shot John Lennon?'". Unsurprisingly Reed refused cooperation, but ex-Velvet John Cale agreed to compose the original score and famous Factory cohort Billy Name served as a dramatic consultant (Billy was also responsible for the original Factory being decorated in silver foil; the replica here, complete with weirdly-shaped silver balloons, looks utterly convincing).

Lili Taylor's performance as ... Read More:

DVD : Mrs. Parker and the Vicious Circle [1995] (REGION 1) (NTSC)

Mrs. Parker and the Vicious Circle [1995] (REGION 1) (NTSC)


starring: Jennifer Jason Leigh, Campbell Scott, Matthew Broderick, Peter Gallagher, Jennifer Beals
directed by: Alan Rudolph
September 05, 2006


As with films like Grace Of My Heart and To Die For, what makes this worth watching is its magnetic central performance. In this case, it's Jennifer Jason Leigh as witty 1920s writer Dorothy Parker. The film follows her through her life of writing, alcoholism, torrid affairs, and soul-crushing disappointments, which is not nearly as depressing as it sounds. Director Alan Rudolph made another film, The Moderns, about this period in American life when words were valued more highly than they are in the TV- and cinema-dominated world of today, and this one makes for a great companion piece.

Leigh, an underappreciated actress, may be at her best here as Dorothy Parker. Parker is a complex character to play - a talented, charismatic, furiously intelligent woman who was also bitter, ... Read More:

One of those 'feel good' movies, rather like the 'Bridget Jones' genre, less comic, but a well crafted film.
Danny(Jude Law) is taken to live in England when his mother dies. Fate takes him back to America and to the Swan family, Mrs Swan(Brenda Blethyn) quite ill by then remembers Danny and welcomes him into their family fold, albeit a rather dysfunctional one, providing the humour.
Jennifer Tilly gives a brilliantly empathic performance as Nina, the blind sister of Anna Swan who is the object of Dannys affections, despite her being engaged to be married, he pursues her. Although blind, Nina has insight and brings the much needed depth to this lightweight romcom.
The British casting is good, Brenda Blethyn is a national treasure and gives a great performance.
Nothing ground ... Read More:
