I watched this. At the end I didn't know what the story was all about. I don't know, I just didn't get it.

This was a good movie that holds up with time. It has a few extras.

This was a really good documentary about a guy trying to make a film. In the doc, Mark, the film maker is trying to finish his film COVEN. The disc includes the finished film as a bonus feature. I actually thought his film COVEN had a great look to it.

Highly recommended.

I didn't care much for this DVD. In my opinion, the TOP OF THE WORLD DVD is a much better live DVD from the Dixie Chicks.

In my opinion this is much, much better than the recent 2 disc remake which I found boring. On the other hand I've watched this version about ten times. Unless you have a problem with watching old movies, this is the version of Andromeda Strain you should go with.

This movie was a piece of crap.

This is the movie about the sexually perverse life of Bob Crane, star of the show Hogan's Heroes. It seems to pretty much follow the same storyline as the version told on Unsolved Mysteries. There is a "Murder in Scottsdale" documentary which is interesting. Also a "Making of" featurette and a decent commentary. Willem Defoe is kind of creepy and strange in this one.

I love the Project Greenlight Season 2 set during which this film was made. As for the movie itself, I can't understand why anyone would like this crap and I also don't know why the project greenlight judges picked this script and the directors they picked. They had two scripts that were much better and two film makers that were much better. This is just...bad with a capitol B.A.D.

Oh man. Hahahaha.
If you bought this movie, I'm sorry for you.

I was kind of disappointed in this. The characters moved too much like puppets or video game characters. The visual look was great but the movements no so great. It has some bonus features that were interesting to watch.

The cover of this makes it looks like its going to be one of those movies you just have to have in your collection. It's also got Scarlett Johansson. In my opinion, she doesn't save this movie. It seemed to me that it had almost nothing to do with the Elizabeth Short movie. It was all about a fictional 3 way affair that I found mind numbingly boring. I mean, it's unreal how boring this thing was. Bad. Very, very bad.

I got this and then put in the bonus disc thinking I was going to be watching a feature length making of doc. I don't know how long the bonus features were but they were verrrry long. It seemed like it kept going for hours. Anyway, for anyone who likes bonus features and feel like the more features they get the better the DVD, then this is well worth 2 credits. This is one of those cases when you'd be foolish to take the 1 disc version if you can afford to get the 2 disc version. The bonus features are WELL WORTH the extra credit on this one.

Borrrring!

There was one part where they were at a party. I liked the music they were playing.

This is a pretty good movie. I found it easy to imagine Leto as Mark Chapman. Much better than The Killing of John Lennon, the trailer for which can be seen on this DVD. Lindsay Lohan was a bit much to take but other than her, it was a believable telling of the events.

This documentary follows the lives of a group of people obsessed with watching movies (in theaters). The people live for watching movies. One keeps a notebook filled with the names and dates of the movies he has seen. One notebook shows that he saw 1000 movies in one 8 month period. All of these people suffer from some form of mental illness. Schizophrenia is mentioned more than once. Watching this movie made me think someone should make a documentary about people who below to a site where they obsessively talk about movies in the site threads and swap movies with each other.

I liked this movie a lot. It also has lots of extras and they're interesting which isn't always the case with bonus material. I loved the fact that the CGI in this movie doesn't look CGI as it does in many movies. I think they did a really good job on the computer generated monster. Much, much better than the CGI monsters in I AM LEGEND. I like the fact that it didn't have famous actors in it. It made it easier to get into the story. Recommended.

Didn't really like Conan the Destroyer a lot but Conan the Barbarian is a GREAT movie.This has some good bonus material and as the other reviewer stated, the commentary is pretty good on this one.

This is a great movie with some decent bonus material. It's turned out to be a keeper for sure. It's a documentary about people going to Hollywood to try and make it as actors. You feel like you yourself live in Hollywood and hang out with these people. It's really good. The story focus' on these aspiring actors engaging in a type of pan-handling in which they dress up as superheros and have photos taken in exchange for tips. The Batman guy has some psychological problems and gets arrested and gets in the face of some people who don't want to tip him. The four main characters in this doc are people who portray SUperman, Batman, Wonder WOman and the Hulk. You don't have to be a comic book fan to like this movie. If you simply like to peek into the lives of people who lead unusual lives you will probably like this.

Most of the crank calls on her are really funny. Couple of clunkers but overall its hilarious. My favorite is Special Ed. I Got Mail.
Review Date: 8/17/2008

This is a very tongue-in-cheek sci-fi film in which racers drive cross country and kill people for sport. I'm a fan of David Carradine films and I like this one. I didn't think this one would age well but I watched it a couple of weeks ago and I liked it as much as when I saw it 20 years ago. This is good but you have to keep in mind that it's not an overly serious take on the idea. Not comedy but very tongue-in-cheek.

This movie a great. It seems like its all real. The famous scene where the meet the two hillbillies in the forest is pretty horrific to watch because it seems so real. Among my favorite films.

This is a great documentary. I've watched it about half a dozen times. It never gets old. Daniel is an artist, musician with a mental illness. An amazing amount of his life has been documented through home movies and photos and Audio tapes. You'll be astounded at just how much of the life of Daniel and his family had been documented here. If you have an interest in outsider art, strange music, true stories of mental illness of simply want to sneak a peak into an unusual life, then give this film a try.

Very Good.

Good movie with lots of bonus material. Much better than House of a 1000 corpses in my opinion. This is one of those times when the bonus features are worth the extra credit.
Review Date: 10/7/2008

No bonus stuff here but the documentary is really good. While watching it, you feel a little disconnected to them as performers and see them as the real people they are beneath the celebrity. Some performs make documentaries and behind the scenes stuff and they still try to keep up the image and all the fake hype. No the case here. They seem like very real people who just happen to have jobs in the entertainment industry. Interesting side of the Chicks if you are a fan.
