WOW . Boy this movie was weird and psycho. I happen to like the weird movies but it was WAY off the psycho side for me. Friends try to cover up an "accidental death" from one of their friends when they try to pull a prank that goes horribly wrong. Things like this, I try to stay away from. Although I am glad I saw it so I won't always wonder if this movie was actually watchable or not. Now I know. I gave it 2 stars because the movie DID have it's charms.

I had no idea . Wow! I had no idea that people could be so close-minded and prejudiced--and about a movie for crying out loud! I mean people on here are saying that they would never date a person just because he/she liked this movie. And this from a reviewer who called this movie racist--talk about hypocrite!    Quite frankly, I thought this movie was hilarious. The acting is supposed to be life-less. The movie is supposed to be uneventful. But if you pay attention to the nuances, the slight glances, you might understand a bit more. For instance, when Napoleon is carrying the chickens to their new cages and he puts them in, he does so with the utmost care and then, he looks around at the chaos and filth that these chickens are forced to live and runs from the coop at top speed. For all the dirt and aggravation of working on the chicken farm he gets paid $1 an hour. Now who can't think of other people in our country who have to deal with that in a real-life scenario?    I am not going to get philosophical about the themes of this movie because in my opinion you either get this movie or you don't, either you are a literal or figurative thinker, either you can enjoy things that have a circular pattern or you are more linear. The point is you don't HAVE to like this movie. No one is forcing you to jump up and down with glee! You also don't need to be so spiteful to those of us who do like it. Liking this movie does not mean I don't like other more classic/mainstream comedies. Young Frankenstein, The Birdcage, The Producers, The Wedding Singer etc are all great movies and great comedies. Napoleon Dynamite is just one more that SOME people in enjoy. So lighten up

The Long-forgotten  Misunderstood Chevy Chase Movie . When I was 12 this movie was a staple on the then still-blossoming HBO.  I think I've watched it or seen bits and pieces of it like more than thirty times. As a kid there were a lot of things I didn't get, of course, but it was funny to me. Now, that was 1982.  Twenty-three years later I saw it on Amazon and nostalgia just washed over me.  I had to have it.  Finally, I thought, Modern Problems and Foul Play have been released to DVD, two childhood staples...  I watched both movies.  Modern Problems was as I remembered it, mostly.  I get all the jokes and situations now that I'm an adult, of course, but there were some other things I got as well.  This isn't the happy-go-lucky Chevy Chase that we all remember from Cassyshack and Seems Like Old Times, this is the darker side.  Modern Porblems has its share of ridiculousness, but beneath the surface, this is a pretty dark comedy.  When Chevy uses his telekinetic powers to make his ex-girlfriend's date's nose start bleeding, Jesus it is hysterical, but at the same time...when you have a chance to think about it...quite grim.  There is an underlying 'life sucks' theme going on here which was where the world was in 1981 and I think this movie captures that pretty well.  Is this my favorite Chevy Chase movie? No. Fletch and Vacation and Christmas Vacation and Caddyshack are.  There's been a lot of others, too.  Is this a classic?  I'd say, yes.  Here is 1981 all rolled up and categorized in a comedy by the reigning star of the time.  A little slice of Regan-era fatalism.  Enjoy

Pretentious . I like some avant garde filmmaking, in particular animation, ex. Norman Mclaren, Harry Smith. But I feel like these Brakhage films are a farce of what an art film is supposed to be like. The filmmaker seems to take what he is doing so seriously that it goes into parody of an "art" film.  I've seen college level work and home movies that are more insightful and entertaining.  I had the chance once to see Stan Brakhage live in New York to screen one of his newer films a few years back. It was a film he shot in Vancouver of the beach, and, seriously, it was like watching somebody's home movies of the beach. Then afterwards he goes into a discussion about the film and how it represents him dealing with illness and life and death. He was so pretentious and full of himself I had to laugh. The emperor has no clothes

Finally, I'm starting to win . This DVD is terrific. Rather than describe the content, as most have, I'll discuss the results.      I'm a rookie that plays with friends every couple of weeks.  I've been playing for less than a year.  I hadn't been a very winning player for a while, but went to Vegas recently.  I watched this DVD and studied the Pre-Flop Strategy, Odds Chart and Hold'em Race Odds charts, and decided to take a chance and enter a low-dollar tournament.  What a blast- I finished 11th out of 51 players.  The next night, I entered another tournament. I made it to the final table and placed in the money- 7th.  Wow, I thought I was going to be taken to the cleaners, but did pretty well against some clearly more experienced veterans.  After returning from the trip, I immediately beat my friends, two games in a row.  I had been getting my butt kicked by them for a couple of months now, so needless to say, this video has really turned my game around.      I didn't realize how much I misunderstood about the game until I watched this video.  I'm doing things in reverse order- now I'm going to purchase the first DVD to make sure I get the basics down, to add to these advanced techniques

TOP NOTCH PERFORMANCE . I saw Denver in concert in Ireland in April '97.I saw him a couple of times before that in the '90's. It was the last time I would see him in concert sadly. He played solo. It was amazing. I went out and bought this the very next week. Denver is in top form both musicially and vocally, as is his band. There are also some interesting monologues peppered throughout the concert where Denver shares his concerns about the environment and wildlife preservation. A great performance all round.

Must-have for Cards fans!!! . This DVD set has all 5 games with Detroit, and games 5 and 7 of the Mets series. Of course, commercial free with great audio and video. World Series victories don't come around often, and this set offers a great way to preserve those memories. I have been watching replays of these games on Fox Midwest, but twenty years from now (when the Cards have wrapped up 5 or 6 more WS victories thanks to coach of the year 2021 Albert Pujols) these games will still be preserved for me, long after they are regulars on cable TV. The bonus DVD is neat too, with interviews from many on the team. A lot of funny stuff, with people spraying champagne all over eachother while trying to interview. Good, candid stuff that you don't get to see during the course of a regular season. If you or your loved one is a serious Cardinals fan like I am, this is a must have!!!         -Dav

a film that hardly stands out but it's a good pass time! . I like this film because several reasons, unlike most of the National Lampoon's I've recently seen, this was the least silly & disgusting. there was a better plot to it, Paris Hilton is a fine actor! alot of people would say she's playing herself in this movie but if u think that, then u don't really know her. but I'm not getting into that. now to the plot, Veronica(Hilton) is the hottest girl in the school, popular, dating the "hottest" guy on campus & is totally rich! looking to win a chance to get a photoshoot for FHM, she needs the hottest girls to compete with her. only that doesn't go so well when she starts treating some of the wannabees like crap & they decide to retaliate. there is a journey of self-discovery, lessons to be learned but it's not a big part of the film & kinda comes from nowhere. lots of this doesn't make sense but who cares. it's a very cheesy flick but it has humor, nudity, all the things u'd want from a National Lampoon's flick & I give it points for trying something new & actually having a point to the film! I say it's a good film to see, though maybe not a family film, it's still worth your time!

One sweet comedy! . The title says it all: Sugar & Spice. It's a sweet yet sour comedy about the A-squad cheerleaders and their sister-like friendship as they all unite to help the head cheerleader, Diane (played by adorable Marley Shelton) and her quarterback boyfriend support the twins they're expecting. I watched this movie not knowing anything about it, and I honestly thought as soon as Diane learns she's pregnant and gives her boyfriend the news, that he was going to leave her, but he couldn't have been more happy. In fact, the only people upset with the news are their parents who disown them, leaving the young couple to fend for themselves. They marry and take minimum wage jobs to pay for their apartment and the expected twins, but it's not enough. But that doesn't stop the A-squad from coming up with a heist plan sure to give the couple the cash they need to care for their babies. Told from the point of view of a bitter B-squad cheerleader, this is one of those fun movies like Mean Girls that's funny yet sweet without being too sugary. It will leave you cheering for these good bad girls the entire way. Enjoy...this one is definitely a keeper

Very Poor Presentation . This could have been a very good documentary, but the video editing style made it unwatchable for me.  The camera never stays on any subject for more than 5 seconds, film is sped up and slowed down for no apparent reason, and bright flashes of light with loud sound effects highlight the transition from scene to scene.  The events surrounding 9/11 are fully capable of engaging my attention without this in-your-face style of presentation, which ironically dilutes the overall impact of the film

Excellent Early Sean Penn Movie....Highly Recommended !!! . I picked this DVD off the rack as a random selection, mainly because I don't believe that Sean Penn has ever appeared in a bad movie....and this has got to be one of his best (even though he was probably still a teenager when it was produced in 1983).     He portrays a young delinquent purse snatcher and mugger named Mick O'Brien, who is rapidly escalating the violence of his crimes. Ultimately, during an attempted drug robbery his best friend is murdered and he accidentally runs over the young brother of his bitter enemy, Paco Moreno (fairly well portrayed by Esai Morales....he is definitely no Sean Penn).     Because of his youth, Mick is sent to a grim, grimy, violent juvenile detention center presided over by the "usual suspects": inattentive, seemingly deaf guards who allow atrocities to be perpetrated daily and with no consequences....prison trustees (Clancy Brown portrays one) who flaunt the rules, sexually abuse at will, and terrorize the inmates....and a warden who is a weak, fickle joke.     By standing up to the trustees and demonstrating his talents for mayhem and maniacal violence, Mick becomes the dominant inmate....in effect, ruling the place, until two things happen to challenge him: Paco rapes Mick's girlfriend (revenge for the death of his brother) and gets sentenced to the same juvenile detention center as Mick. They now hate each other more than ever, and are trapped within the same hellish institution....you KNOW that something horrific is going to happen.     Sorry, but if you want to see how this incredible set-up plays out, you'll have to rent or buy the DVD....and I assure you, it will be money well spent. The acting is superb (Sean is incredible, even as a teenager, exuding an undercurrent of barely-controlled violence); the plot is suspenseful and bloody but always makes perfect sense; the direction, cinematography, sets, sound, etc. are terrific. This is a genuinely excellent movie....I give it my highest recommendation.

An unconvenient truth . When the scientific facts about climate change are seriously looked into the only inconvenient truth is Vice President Gore needs to find another celebrity cause.  A passionate speaker can sway many people that are already leaning towards a given theory.  It quickly becomes evident that once the predicted ice age of the late '70s and early '80s didn't pan out the only direction to go was the opposite or global warming. What should cause most people to pause and think is that when the noise dies down the only solution to global warming given by it's theorists is to vote for a certain political party.  Sorry, nice try Al. Perhaps if you spent more time cleaning up the heavy metal pollution found on your own property you would convince more people

The absolute low point was a madcap chase up the Empire State Building; both Bertie and Jeeves were completely out of character. I got through the set just once and re-sold it almost immediately. I highly recommend the first three sets, but if you're a Wodehouse purist, pass on this fiasco

buy this DVD/CD it is worth it . This DVD/CD combo is a very worthy effort by Coheed and Cambria. It includes all of their hit songs and they are a joy to watch live. The only bad thing about this package is that the audio on the DVD is sub-par. This doesnt mean that it is bad, it just isnt the kind of quality I would expect from a big time band like Coheed and Cambria. Even though the audio isnt that great, I still watch the thing all the time. The best part of this package is the CD that comes along with it. This is worth buying this product alone. I suggest putting the CD on full blast and watching the DVD on mute. All in all I give the DVD 3 out of 5 and the CD 5 out of 5 which averages out to a decent 4. This should hold anyone that needs a Coheed fix until they put out their next C

I could not have enjoyed this more! . This is simply the PERFECT movie/series for anyone who is interested in polar exploration.  It's beautifully filmed, interesting throughout, and really makes you feel you are there.  True, Scott is, on the whole, shown in a less than favorable light, but given many of the decisions he made, it would be hard for that not to be the case.  To the film's credit it goes to great lengths to give the context/history behind the mindset that led to those poor decisions.  Likewise with Amundsen, you see his greatness mixed with his flaws.  I wouldn't change a thing about the movie itself.  As to the quality of the film transfer and the sound, it seemed perfectly fine to me - though I'm hardly an expert on such things.  As for the packaging, I admit I was a little disappointed there was absolutely no booklet of any kind, nor are there any "extras" on the discs themselves.  You strictly get the 7 episodes on 3 discs in a double-wide hard case.  But given that exploration is rarely the subject of any movie, let alone one of this length, I consider this set a real find, worth every penny, and I will treasure it.  One side note: The DVD case says "Featuring Hugh Grant & Max VonSydow", but a very young Hugh Grant has just a tiny little part in this 1985 film, so don't buy this hoping to see him or you'll be disappointed!

Motzart's Video collection? . I hate to part company with the other reviewers here, as well as the Amazon comments but this NOT a must have.   I am huge fan of New Order and Joy Division and think they are one of the most important modern western popular bands of the last, almost thirty years for all their well-known contributions to existentilism and furturism in alternative, independent rock. Basically inventing post-punk, being one of the inventors of the dance-music, electronica scene a decade before most other bands and accidentaly inventing "goth" music along the way.   Not to mention being excellent musicians with a very artsy, deep and humorous sensitivity.    But, because they are such a good band it is glarringly obvious that the "rock video" is nothing more than a corporate music business era chore that bands just have to do as part of the job.    Film critic Rodger Ebert once said the rock video is "empty."    Here, they aren't so much empty as New Order's music is so good, just pointless.                I find myself almost angry that a beautiful song such as "Ceremony" would have such a terrible video like this(incidently, I do not know what the viewer below is talking about...there is no original version of the "Ceremony" video...just this thing). An aweful, unwatchable piece of useless garbage featuring a fellow walking around with a trashbag on his head. I guess that is a reference to the thought process of music video directors. Not sure what else it could be. I could only stomach 40 seconds of this filth. I'm afraid after listening to this tune for more than ten years, both Joy Division's and New Order's...the images in mine and in other musician's heads will have to do. Unwatchable. Trash.  The new "Tempation" video....embarrasing.    Watch their concert videos, go see them live or better yet, think for yourself.    There are a few winners..."Confusion" is a classic and a great video as well as little bit of music history.    "Perfect Kiss" is cool but I've seen it enough and life is short.  "Touched By the Hand of God" is very funny..but ..again..life is short.  The only thing I hadn't seen before and actually kind of liked was the Gina Birch "Crystal"..that was a slightly cool workday music industry bit. Not important art in anyway....but better than Franz Fernidad peeing on an art gallery wall like the Nazis used to do.    Videos?    As for the documentary on the other disc. This is much better but is almost 13 years old. There are some excellent Joy Division clips here. Why don't we have a full DVD of all the Joy Division footage in the world yet? You get many of the same videos on the other disc played in full again on THIS disco too..in case you're someone like me who hated them enough the first time.  Some great stuff, a bit of live Joy Division, great early live versions of 'Blue Monday", "Tempation"..and yes.."Ceremony".  The interviews are great as New Order speaks like real musicians and their collaborators are an interesting bunch making up a lot of what urban nightlife music culture has been from the late seventies until today on both sides of the Atlantic.

It is like they dropped the slides of the movie and mixed it up . This movie is really fun because they mixed everything all around and made it confusing.  Pay attention the other person is right.  This movie is for people who like art movies.  It is violent.  Some people cannot follow it, but those who do love it.  I really loved it.  It is black and white so hopefully that does not turn you off, but it is really great.  This is one you have to think with and pay attention to.  This is not something to walk in and out of.  It would not make any sense at all.  Not one for kids.  They will be really confused.  It will take so long to explain it to them and still you may not be able to.  A smart teen could probably understand it, but some adults cannot.  If you are reading reviews I am sure you can.  It is some great mental exercise and so much better than other movies when you want something of more substance

The Story of the World's Most Famous Disco . In the mid to late 1970s, disco music was king and everyone enjoyed going to the clubs and dancing the night away.  In this story of New York's world-famous Studio 54, the story is told through the eyes of Shane O'Shea (Ryan Phillippe), a young man from New Jersey who manages to get onto the guest list and into the very exclusive club.  A gas station attendant by day, Shane soon finds himself as one of the regulars and manages to secure himself a job at the club as a bus boy/bartender.    Shane befriends two of the club's workers, Greg Randazzo (Brechin Meyer) and his wife Anita (Salma Hayek).  They invite Shane to move in to their apartment, but Greg soon suspects that Shane and Anita are having an affair.  Shane actually has fallen for Julie Black (Neve Campbell), another regular.  A soap opera star, Shane is intrigued by her beauty and is immediately drawn to her.  After a while, the two begin a relationship.    Meanwhile, Steve Rubell, played magnificently by Mike Myers, has been laundering money from the club.  Each night, he sends bags full of money out with the trash to be picked up and taken away, out of sight of the I.R.S.  This scam goes on for quite some time until finally the I.R.S. finds out about Rubell's operation and raids the club.    Shane, spurned in the end by Julie, eventually leaves 54 to become a college student and restaurant manager.  Steve Rubell is sentenced to 18 months in prison and is forced to sell 54 in a plea agreement. He is allowed to remain as a "consultant" to the new ownership, and he also throws a big party at the club's re-opening, attended by Shane, Greg, and Anita.    Studio 54 was indeed the king of the discos.  Celebrities from all over the world, including Andy Warhol and Truman Capote, were regular visitors to the club.  The music was loud, and sex and drugs were freely available. Unfortunately, 54 never really regained its prominence after its re-opening, and it closed down for good in 1986.  Steve Rubell died in 1989 at age 45.      This movie does an excellent job of showcasing the very famous club, right down to the throngs of people who begged to get in each night.  The acting in the film is very good, but Mike Myers stands out above the rest.  His superb portrayal of the eccentric but troubled Steve Rubell is the highlight of the film.    Having grown up in the 70s, I remember reading about Studio 54 and what a fantastic place it was.  This movie shows both the bright and dark sides of the famous disco.  I recommend this movie highly.  If you're a child of the 70s like me, then you'll remember the disco music and the almost surreal essence that 54 had.  Watch this movie and enjoy a trip back to when disco ruled and 54 was the place everyone wanted to go

Not the same old WATP workout . I just did this workout for the first time and I have to say it was a refreshing change from the usual kicks, knee lifts, side steps and marching of the other WATP series.  It was interesting and fun.      If you are familiar with any of Leslies tapes, you know that there is constant chatter and it will sometimes get weird, and the queing will be off, but that is Leslie.  The moves aren't complicated, so you may miss a second or two, but can catch up easily. In spite of all that, I find her a motivating instructor and I guess that she is laughing all the way to the bank since she sells jillions of dvds/videos despite not being perfect.

Really Great  Movie That Is Still Fun . Like a lot of people, I remember this movie fondly from when I was younger, and this movie is still really fun. Unlike remakes that are made now, this took a classic film and put its own twist to the story. The acting is good, but what really stands out to me is the sets and costumes, especially when they make it to the city. The entire scene when they are watching the people sing about Green, Red and Gold is really cool to watch. The songs are also very memorable and really catchy. Overall, this is a cool movie that can still be enjoyed by anyone, it is really a classic.

&quot;When Doves Cry&quot; Is Missing? . Then why bother?  This is terrible for the true Prince fan, Warner needs to come out with a better DVD compilation...  Truly disappointing
Output: NEG
disappointing . I was expecting a college comedy with plenty of college girl T&A.  But the T&A was minimal, only a couple of quick scenes.  And the movie was only slightly entertaining.  Since the movie wasn't very entertaining for me (a male), and most of the stars of the movie are female...and the males in the movie are portrayed as idiots (fools), and the plot is mostly about girls trying to get into a sorority....I'm thinking this movie must be a "chick flick"...a movie for girls.  Guys will hope to see enough college girl nudity to be interesting, but they will be disappointed.  Some Paris Hilton fans may like the movie, but be sure to note that Paris Hilton does not get naked in this movie (...but a few other girls get topless).  I wouldn't be surprised to see some girls disagreeing with my assumption that this movie is a "chick flick"...maybe its just a little dull for everyone...(barely watchable)

A Middling Collection Of Will's "SNL Career . After pretty much laughing my (...) off while watching "The Best Of Will Ferrell", I expected to do the same with "The Best Of Will Ferrell - Volume 2". However, when I watched it on tv in July, I was extremely disappointed. Outside of a few sketches, I hardly uttered a chuckle. However, when I saw this dvd a few weeks ago, I knew I had to buy it, thinking I might change my opinion. Needless to say, it remained the same.    "The Best Of Will Ferrell - Volume 2" is supposed to include sketches featuring some of Will's lesser known recurring characters that failed to make it on the (10 million times funnier) first volume, including rude and incompetent obstertrician Dr. Beamen, Hank of Bill Braskie's Buddies", and Ted Brogan", the 37 - year - old baby. Also there are some sketches that feature non - recurring bits. None of these sketches are funny.    However, there are a few funny sketches. They are the opening Bush sequence, the famed "Wake Up And Smile", "Lovers" (though there's another version of this sketch with the same characters on volume one except it's with Jimmy Fallon and Drew Barrymore and it's much funnier), "Red Ships Of Spain" (with Will doing his Robert Goulet impression), and "Inside The Actors Studio" with Kate Hudson as Drew Barrymore (though the one with Alec Baldwin as Charles Nelson Reilly on the first edition was much funnier).    The only other watchable sketch is "Janet Reno's Dance Party", which really only catches fire when she beats up Mayor Rudolph Giulianni. It's pretty good, but Will impersonated Reno 13 times, so there are probably better Janet Reno sketches out there.    Also, there are many much more funnier characters that didn't appear or only appeared briefly on the first volume that without a doubt should have been included here. I'm talking about Frank Henderson (from the "Get Off The Shed" bit), David Leary (from "Dog Show"), Tom Wilkinson (from "Morning Latte"), Sean Patrick Flannery (from the Mary Katherine Gallagher sketches), Baron Nocturna (from "Goth Talk"), Don West (from the "Shopping At Home" sketches), and his Ted Kaczynski and Neil Diamond (where's "Storytellers") impressions.    And why not include more Culps, Spartans, Roxbury, "Jeopardy!", Harry Caray and Saddam Hussein sketches? Yeah, they were on volume one, but they were truly Will's best! And as a final gripe, they could have given us at least one of the Bush/Gore presidential debates sketches.    Overall, you can say this is a complete abomination, but it is tempting. Buy at your own risk and hope that volume three comes out soon and it's much, much better than this dvd

Boring, like watching snow melt... . The Snow Queen is an ancient story from Northern Europe about a beautiful lady with a heart of ice who resides near the North Pole, and uses winter to take the lives of innocent human beings, and uses her beauty and charm to seduce innocent men.  Live action movies and cartoon versions of this story have been made in numerous decades in multiple languages.  One of the later ones is this 3 hour version by Hallmark Entertainment.  Taking place somewhere in Scandinavia; most likely Denmark, the setting is a small rural village in the mid 20th century.  A father loses his wife to winter, and raises his daughter at their hotel.  One day, he hires Kai, a young man, to help with labor around the hotel.  He and the daughter fall in love, but the Snow Queen steals Kai away.  The daughter sets forth on a journey across earth and the four seasons to find the lair of the Snow Queen to rescue Kai.      The movie's story is quite good and offers much promise.  But the movie drags too much; the dialogue is often muted, and the Snow Queen is somewhat wooden; not enough emotion.  The idea of a beautiful queen of ice is done much better in the Chronicles of Narnia than here, as Bridget Fonda does not do much talking at all.  The idea of the robbed girl having to travel across the spring, summer and autumn to find Kai is quite innovative and only possible by the crew of Hallmark, but again it was not done well.  The action scenes were somewhat fake, and most importantly, the snow in the winter scenes clearly looked like fake snow.  Overall, a good attempt but a bad result.

A strong family drama, well worth watching... . With 21st century eyes, it's wonderful to see a family like the Waltons. Although they are scrabbling against poverty, living in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia during the Depression, they are happy. The large family, which includes seven children, parents, and grandparents, is loving and supportive. Sure, the kids aren't angels -- like any others, they squabble and have their problems. But when push comes to shove, they've got one another's backs, like when eldest sister Mary Ellen beats up a classmate for mocking little brother Jim Bob's shirt (made from sister Erin's old dress) or when eldest brother John-Boy defends Mary Ellen from a potential assault by a guest staying with the family.    Most gratifying is the children's overall contentment. Sure, they aspire for "things" - they long to see a traveling circus that comes to the mountains, and they pause by toys displayed in the general store. But for the most part, they don't dwell upon what they don't have. They take contentment in life in general, and when the occasional treat comes their way, they truly appreciate it...unlike many kids today, whose parents buy them the latest iPods and video games, and it's STILL not enough.     The Waltons' saga is told through the eyes of eldest son John-Boy, who is 17 and aspires to be a writer. He is based on Earl Hamner, a Virginia native who wrote "Spencer's Mountain," the book upon which the show is based. Hamner does a voiceover in each episode, speaking as the adult John-Boy looking back on his childhood.    (For the record, I'm 26 years old, not someone who grew up with this show, or looks down upon "today's youth" from the vantage of age. But, as you know, not all young folks are content with the attitudes of today's society as a rule. I, for one, truly wish we could return to a simpler time; it won't be long before our complicated lives lead us to self-destruct.

Fun interviews, but NO song shown in entirety . Cheap Trick is undoubtedly one of the best live acts around today.  They have such great stage charisma, top notch talent, and they consistently get better with age!  What other band sounds better 30 years later?    After my disappointment with the Special One CD, I was excited to hear about this DVD; I heard most Special One songs live, and couldn't understand why they translated to tape poorly.  Having these songs stripped and performed live would be exactly the hot product to put out.  And the songs DO sound much better now, such tremendous intensity Robin has live, the guitars and bass sound great, and there's a great build up to the climax of each song.    However, what's really the downer about this DVD is that although you get fun fictious anecdotes and silly interviews of the band between every track, you then get 2/3 of each live song.  NOT A SINGLE SONG APPEARS HERE IN ITS ENTIRETY.  It's like a Behind the Music (without drama or drugs) based around a new live show.  The banter is great, but this clip-show format KILLS the replay value of this disc.      The closest comparison I can give is the 2-DVD version of Silver, how the second DVD has fun clips and chat between tracks and then overlays into the songs.  That's exactly what this is like, however, you do not get the benefit of the complete uncut show.    Bonus features are fun, with the band and their families visiting Japan, although the two live special appearances they played are again not shown in their entirety.    Perhaps someday we'll get the Budakan show on DVD or an updated Every Trick in the Book DVD.    Update 6/14/05:  Exactly a year later, I've still yet to pop this into my DVD player for a second watch, and Cheap Trick's still my favorite band.

lacked some heart . This was a good action flick but I felt that there was nobody encouraging eachother on the SWAT team or anybody doing anything or saying anything with heart.  The film was one of the best action films out there though and I did like the scene where the young swat memebers are training to be on the team.  The end of the movie is pretty cool and Samuel L. Jackson played a great leader for the SWAT team just like he was a great coach on Coach Carter.  When guns or bombs go off the sourround sound is exhilirating.  The commentary was dissapointing though.  Buy it if you like action flicks.  God bless you and America

American Knitter learn how to knit 3 dvd set . I just received this dvd set on tuesday and by thursday I have learned to cast on the proper way, knit, purl, increase, decrease, cast off, hold my yarn the proper way etc. etc. Tracy is the greatest!! I feel like I went from an insecure beginner to a confident intermediate knitter in just two days.  I haven't even begun dvd lesson number 3, but I am secure in the fact that I will master it and become an intermediate or better knitter because of this awesome teacher.  She is friendly, patient, and very pleasant and caring as she guides you through each step of the way.  I hope she will put out another series where she teaches you to understand knitting patterns.  Thanks Tracy!

fulcis blood drenched classic . lucio fulcis zombi 2 is in my opinion the greatest zombie movie ever made[dawn of the dead is a close second]and should be in every horror fans collection. people say that its a rip off of romeros films, but doesnt every zombie film take something from night or dawn of the dead. romero basicaly created the whole undead zombie genre. fulcis picture is actually quite original. the setting being in the tropical islands of south america is very effective. the zombies look amazing, much better than romeros blue shaded gut munchers. fulcis zombies are rotting, decaying monsters. each one has its own original qualities. the only thing i dont love about the movie is the pacing. it takes like 40 minutes for the film to get going, but once it does get going its a nonstop zombie gorefest. speaking of gore, zombi 2 has plenty of it. the wooden splinter through the eye scene is to this day one of the most infamous gore scenes ever put onto film. if you havnt seen this movie then you should first punch youself in the face and then go buy it immediatly.
