Average Rating:	The Great Escape [1963] starring: Steve McQueen, James Garner, Richard Attenborough, Charles Bronson, Donald Pleasence directed by: John Sturges June 19, 2000		Used Price: Â£0.01
An early war film before the use of special effects works by it's "acting". These were top escapists who weren't to be denied, how they actually succeeded was through ingenuity, except it came at a cost, namely death and recapture. The Germans knew they were going to be tested but they hadn't the collective nous to thwart the impending break out/s. Very sanitary in it's portrayal as it lacks an edge apart from the final scene of McQueen trying to outwit his pursuers. Marvellous back drop and having Bronson being a tunnelman afraid of the dark/clostrophobic and the brains of the operation going blind shows how plans can almost backfire. An excellent cast illuminates this War time drama, a deserved favourite! >>More Details

Average Rating:	Doris Day - Young At Heart / The Thrill Of It All / Lover Come Back [1954] starring: Rock Hudson, Doris Day, Tony Randall, Frank Sinatra, James Garner directed by: Delbert Mann, Gordon Douglas, Norman Jewison October 01, 2001		Used Price: Â£7.50
I loved the three videos in this box set from start to finish. "Young at Heart" introduced me to the wonders of Sinatra, who sings "One for my Baby, Young at Heart, and, my fav, One of those things," amongst other fab songs. Sinatra and Day really shine in this heart-warming musical. "The Thrill of It All" is about a doctor (James Garner) who becomes jealous of his wife's (Doris Day) new found celebrity from a soap advertisement. It is completely hilarious! I laughed at every moment of this fantastic film! "Lover Come Back" is also a great comedy - this time Doris was partnered with Rock Hudson. The two make great viewing. The chemistry between them, coupled with the script results in a film people will watch time and time again! You ... Read More: >>More Details

Average Rating:	Atlantis - The Lost Empire [2001] starring: Michael J. Fox, Jim Varney, Corey Burton, Claudia Christian, James Garner directed by: Gary Trousdale, Kirk Wise March 04, 2002		Used Price: Â£0.01
I wanted to give 0 stars, but it didn't work, this is why I give one!! But it doesn't deserve it!!! This is simply the worst I have ever seen from Disney and in general in the cartoon section!! The movie is set in the early 20th century, but the characters act like they would be from the 21st century!! They are also not nicely drawn and the whole story is so horrible, you better watch it yourself to understand what I talk about!! This is a DVD I have seen only once and happily will sell it if someone is up to it!! >>More Details

Average Rating:	Move Over Darling [1963] starring: Doris Day, James Garner, Polly Bergen, Thelma Ritter, Fred Clark directed by: Michael Gordon		Used Price: Â£6.87
The original film in 1911 was titled "Enoch Arden" and was inspired by the poem of the same name by Alfred Lord Tennyson. In 1940 the movie "My Favorite Wife" was made. It, like this re-make is a comic inversion of Enoch Arden poem and movie. In this 1960's remake a man who is ready to have his missing wife declared legally dead and remarry finds himself in a predicament when his first wife turns up after five years of being gone! This remake turned out to be a hit right when 20th Century FOX studios had to have income. There is no question Doris Day made this remake so popular. She is the girl next door who brings her own innocent charm and comic skill to a movie the whole family can watch. The digital remastering of the original master makes the movie ...

Average Rating:	Fire In The Sky [1993] starring: D.B. Sweeney, Robert Patrick, Craig Sheffer, Peter Berg, Henry Thomas directed by: Robert Lieberman September 05, 1994		Used Price: Â£0.80
The fact that this is based upon a true story, full of factual events makes the film very compelling. Overall the film could be considered laborious and a bit dull in parts but when you think, yeah this actually could have happened takes the feel of the film to a whole new level. Travis and his friends are coming back from a days logging when they see a mysterius light in the woods, keen to investigate Travis approaches the light after getting out of the truck leaving all his friends behind, when a beam of light shoots down and knocks travis to the ground, his friends speed off fearing for their life and that is the last time travis is seen for days, accused of murder by police and locals travis's friends have to tell their rather unbelieveable story.

Average Rating:	The Roman War Machine - Roman Seige Warfare / Barbarians At The Gate starring: James Garner, Jonathan Pryce, Peter Riegert, Joanna Cassidy, Fred Dalton Thompson directed by: Glenn Jordan June 05, 2000		Used Price: Â£9.25
Who knew you could make a comedy about a Leveraged Buyout (LBO)? James Garner, in a brilliant performance, plays F. Ross Johnson, the CEO of RJR Nabisco who wants to buy out the company. He learns about LBOs from the cool slick Henry Kravis, the then-master of the buyout (played by Jonathan Pryce). When Ross takes Kravis' advice and goes out on his own, Henry gets MAD and fires his own salvo. This was a time when people threw figures like "$25 billion" around and thought nothing of it. The technicals of the deal are explained with enough detail that non-financiers can easily follow what's going on. Nice satirical touches like Ross' wife's manicurist explaining the art of the deal to her. A lot of cussing; after all, this was the ultimate boys' game. Fine fun movie. >>More Details

Average Rating:	Maverick [1994] starring: Mel Gibson, Jodie Foster, James Garner, Graham Greene, Alfred Molina directed by: Richard Donner April 19, 1999		Used Price: Â£0.01
As at least one of the reviews in favour of this film came from the UK I thought I was in with a chance of being amused. I had thought that a film with James Garner, Jodie Foster and Mel Gibson in the lead roles would be very good but this is really a "ho hum" film. Some of the costumes and scenic shots are great but there is some very poor cutting, particularly in the bank robbery sequence, where it is obvious part of the plot has been cut. The comedy is not very funny and the script is pretty low level. I am very glad I watched this on my own and didn't persuade my husband to watch it with me. It would have been a shame to waste both our time. Don't bother spending your money on this one. I will be donating my copy to freecycle. >>More Details

Average Rating:	The Thrill Of It All [1963] starring: Doris Day, James Garner, Arlene Francis, Edward Andrews, Reginald Owen directed by: Norman Jewison December 27, 2001		Used Price: Â£0.01
I've heard "War of the Roses" described as "dark comedy" or "black comedy". "The Thrill of It All" is the complete opposite. James Garner plays a doctor and Doris Day is his stay-at-home wife (this movie reflects suburban living in the late fifties and early sixties very well). Everything is fine until Doris Day gets noticed by a soap company and they make her their new spokesperson. One comic disaster after another follows this change (the convertible going into the swimming pool full of soap-suds is one of the most memorable comic moments in any movie) while Doris tries to juggle a new career without neglecting her children or her husband. Will the marriage survive? Will the career survive? We KNOW the car doesn't survive! If you want to know what comedy was like in the early sixties, ... Read More: >>More Details
