2/5
 
"Now I'm not saying a director should spoon-feed the movie experience, but neither should the audience need to have a Masters in Liberal Arts."
Posted Apr 28, 2008
 
Succubus (1967)n/a
/
0/5
 
"The Andy Griffith Show managed to infect millions of Baby Boomers with the illusion of the quaint Southern county town."
Posted Apr 14, 2008
 
The Andy Griffith Show - The Complete First Season (1960-1961)n/a
/
3/5
 
"Saying 'Will we discover how the skull ended up with a big hole in it?' just before a commercial break. But with DVD and no commercials, this becomes quite annoying."
Posted Apr 11, 2008
 
Rameses - Wrath of God or Man? (2004)n/a
/
3/5
 
"Shaw, on the other hand, does play the role with much the same reserve, but is more irritated by people's faults than saddened by them."
Posted Apr 11, 2008
 
The Murder Room (2004)n/a
/
2/5
 
"Yes, there's a bit of gore and a few gotcha moments, but this isn't horror. It's more like the cosmic justice you'd see on The Twilight Zone."
Posted Apr 11, 2008
 
Creepshow 2 (1987)18%
/
1/5
 
"Another serial killer movie. Yes, Hollywood loves the serial killer. And we got all the classic clichés in this film."
Posted Apr 11, 2008
 
Suspect Zero (2004)17%
/
1/5
 
"Honestly, the plot is just an excuse to get Sharon Stone naked and in some sort of sexual activity."
Posted Apr 11, 2008
 
Sliver (1993)17%
/
4/5
 
"The Wobblies is an important look at where the working man and woman have come from and hopefully will never go to again."
Posted Apr 11, 2008
 
The Wobblies ()n/a
/
1.5/5
 
"When the priest is preparing everyone for the big exorcism, he says 'Let's do this.' Come on, you're about to confront a demon, can't you come up with something better?"
Posted Apr 11, 2008
 
Blackwater Valley Exorcism (2006)n/a
/
2/5
 
"If you want to relive the days when (all together now) MTV used to play music videos, I'd just hit YouTube or some similar service."
Posted Apr 11, 2008
 
Alternative '80s - 20th Century Masters: The Best Of (2004)n/a
/
1.5/5
 
"What a load of melodramatic clichéd claptrap."
Posted Apr 11, 2008
 
True Stories Collection: After the Silence ()n/a
/
3.5/5
 
"Some are going to find this slow and boring. But I thought it helps you to care and feel an impact when something bad happens. These aren't disposable teeny-boppers."
Posted Apr 11, 2008
 
Savage Harvest 2 - October Blood (2006)n/a
/
3/5
 
"However, the show suffers from that common condition of children's media where producers lower the bar on quality since they believe children to be less sophisticated."
Posted Apr 11, 2008
 
The Tomorrow People Set 1 (1973)n/a
/
3.5/5
 
"But with Kinsey, flashy innovative style isn't really needed. Not when you have sex to keep your interest."
Posted Apr 11, 2008
 
American Experience - Kinsey (2005)n/a
/
4.5/5
 
"I should explain that this disc doesn't have the actual shows, but just the performances by Judy and her guests. That said, what we've got here is remarkable."
Posted Apr 11, 2008
 
Judy Garland Show - Vol. 6: Legends (1963-1964)n/a
/
3.5/5
 
"[Airline] is more about observing people, but in a natural environment and not in a fabulously appointed living space with a confessional and night vision camera."
Posted Apr 11, 2008
 
Airline - The Complete Season One ()n/a
/
4/5
 
"Neeson really brings across Kinsey's near desperate need to understand himself and the world around him and his frustration when that world doesn't act rationally."
Posted Apr 11, 2008
 
Kinsey (2004)90%
/
4/5
 
"We get action underwater, urban combat with commandos and one Jedi going Force wushu on a droid army."
Posted Apr 11, 2008
 
Star Wars - Clone Wars: Vol. 1 (2003)n/a
/
1.5/5
 
"But like wishing for a son to return from the dead but forgot to mention not as a rotting corpse, the fans got their movie, but they forgot to ask for a good movie"
Posted Apr 11, 2008
 
Alien vs. Predator (2004)22%
/
3.5/5
 
"In the end, though, the movie tells us that it's about having someone in your life, not necessarily having someone in your bed."
Posted Apr 11, 2008
 
The 40-Year-Old Virgin (2005)84%
/
3/5
 
"[Angel] talks about how he wants to make magic more modern but it looked to me that a lot of stuff he performed was the standard sleight of hand and cold reading."
Posted Apr 11, 2008
 
Criss Angel MindFreak - The Complete Season One (2002)n/a
/
2.5/5
 
"It's very straight forward in its linear historical coverage of its subject. There's plenty of film clips and the talking heads step up to fill in the gaps."
Posted Apr 11, 2008
 
The True History of the Mafia: The Godfathers Collection (2003)n/a
/
1/5
 
"That's pretty much the Horror Formula checklist, Mental Institution Subsection. So what else can I say? What a cliché ridden mess."
Posted Apr 11, 2008
 
Asylum of the Damned (2003)n/a
/
1/5
 
"[Bedtime for Bonzo] turns out to be is only a mild comedy. The writing and plot are about at the level of a sitcom that lasts only one season."
Posted Apr 11, 2008
 
Bedtime for Bonzo (1951)63%
/
4/5
 
"In this season of CSI, they seem to have achieved that balance between inventiveness and stability."
Posted Apr 11, 2008
 
CSI: Crime Scene Investigation - The Complete Fifth Season (2004-2005)n/a
/
3.5/5
 
"This is straight police procedural, working leads and verifying alibis that don't pan out. But this is more avant-garde than Dragnet."
Posted Apr 11, 2008
 
The Boston Strangler (1968)92%
/
4.5/5
 
"All you have is two actors (Olivier and Caine) at the top of their game acting the hell out of a tight, suspenseful script."
Posted Apr 11, 2008
 
Sleuth (1972)94%
/
3/5
 
"Belle de Jour is not simple. Director Buñuel knows that what motivates people can only be guessed at, even by those acting on those motivations."
Posted Apr 11, 2008
 
Belle de Jour (1967)94%
/
2/5
 
"There's no insight into why he shoots for one angle and not another. There's no analysis of how his directorial style has changed from The Terminator to Titanic."
Posted Apr 11, 2008
 
Directors Series, The - James Cameron (2001)n/a
/
2/5
 
"But this unholy mix of Yuppie Redemption and yet another retelling of Romeo and Juliet tries way too hard at being heartwarming and epic at the same time."
Posted Apr 11, 2008
 
The Magical Legend Of The Leprechauns (1999)n/a
/
3.5/5
 
"And like the comics, many of the episodes focused on everyone's favorite Canadian mutant, Wolverine."
Posted Apr 11, 2008
 
X-Men - The Legend of Wolverine (2003)n/a
/
4/5
 
"Still, I watched them and I can see what Carter saw in them. They're actually good. But I shouldn't have been that surprised. The scripts were written by Richard Matheson."
Posted Apr 7, 2008
 
The Night Stalker, The/Night Strangler (1971/1973)n/a
/
2/5
 
"Unfortunately, Cushing's performance is the only good thing in the movie. There isn't enough gore or suspense to keep your interest in this supposed horror flick."
Posted Apr 7, 2008
 
The Revenge of Frankenstein (1958)86%
/
1/5
 
"Bill Pullman is wrong in this role. Dennis Alan has traveled to exotic locales and met all manner of interesting people but Pullman conveys nothing but naiveté and boyishness."
Posted Apr 7, 2008
 
The Serpent and the Rainbow (1987)59%
/
3.5/5
 
"I should preface this review by saying I haven't seen many extreme sports videos, so I can't compare the quality of this film to others. On its own though, I was impressed."
Posted Apr 7, 2008
 
Keep Your Eyes Open (2003)n/a
/
3/5
 
"While I was watching this show, I kept thinking, 'Who thinks of turning a limo into a fire truck?' That's not a normal thought process. Of course, that's what makes it fun."
Posted Apr 7, 2008
 
Monster Garage (2002)n/a
/
4.5/5
 
"This is satire at its most biting and brutal. But not at its most broad. The situations and characters are kept from getting too stereotypical or unrealistic."
Posted Apr 7, 2008
 
The Office: The Complete First Series (2001)100%
/
1/5
 
"It's a shame when you have an interesting concept and completely fail to express it. This movie tries to be a social satire with fantastic elements and ends up a blobby mess."
Posted Apr 7, 2008
 
No Such Thing (2002)29%
/
3/5
 
"I wish the actual the actual mystery was as good. Still, it is an interesting character study and some fine acting."
Posted Apr 7, 2008
 
P.D. James - Original Sin (2003)n/a
/
4/5
 
"This movie can be watched and enjoyed as a well-constructed comedy. However that would be missing many of the other facets of the film."
Posted Apr 7, 2008
 
Platinum Blonde (1931)n/a
/
3.5/5
 
"You recognize the format: a country village with a community of odd characters with dirty little secrets, the sleuth barges in and manages to determine whodunit."
Posted Apr 7, 2008
 
Midsomer Murders - Set 1 (1997)n/a
/
2/5
 
"This special is one big clip show. With that said, some of the live bits in the show are good. But it's not worth it to get the whole disc just for those good tidbits."
Posted Apr 7, 2008
 
Saturday Night Live - 25th Anniversary (2004)n/a
/
4.5/5
 
"De Havilland gives an amazing performance, shifting from mood to mood in the blink of an eye, constantly frightened by thoughts and feelings that she doesn't understand."
Posted Apr 7, 2008
 
The Snake Pit (1948)n/a
/
1/5
 
"this movie forgets the basic tenet that made this type of story work: you must care about the castaways. These non-characters evoke nothing but boredom from me."
Posted Apr 7, 2008
 
Mysterious Island (1961)89%
/
1.5/5
 
"But it's all done with the breathless anticipation of a solution that is never definitely given. And the historical reenactments are obviously padding."
Posted Apr 7, 2008
 
Nefertiti Resurrected (2003)n/a
/
3/5
 
"Instead of attaching heavy duty Significance, this film plays out a simple love story. The gay aspect isn't ignored, but it doesn't overwhelm either."
Posted Apr 7, 2008
 
Beautiful Thing (1996)89%
/
3/5
 
"Gil Gerard does well as the easy going 70s stud enjoying himself either with the ladies or beating the crap out of a bunch of alien thugs."
Posted Apr 7, 2008
 
Buck Rogers in the 25th Century - The Complete Epic Series (1979-81)n/a
/
3/5
 
"While this show hasn't really done anything, it does very little right. There are better examples of this genre out there. Rent them instead."
Posted Apr 7, 2008
 
The Inspector Alleyn Mysteries - Set 1 (2005)n/a
/
3.5/5
 
"Robson Green and Hermione Norris give good performances and have decent chemistry together. The plot gives plenty of twists and turns."
Posted Apr 7, 2008
 
Wire in the Blood - The Mermaids Singing (2003)n/a
/
4/5
 
"Strong performances are another trademark that Angel inherited from Buffy. Boreanaz and Carpenter, now quite familiar with their roles, ably handle their new leading roles."
Posted Apr 7, 2008
 
Angel - Season 3 (2001-2002)n/a
