9/10
     (1997)      "...riveting entertainment for those who enjoy good detective stories, good character dramas, good thrillers, and plain-old good filmmaking. (Blu-ray Edition)" [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
9/10
     (1997)      "...one of the most absorbing, compelling, most thoroughly enjoyable crime thrillers to have come along in the past decade." [movie review]      DVDTown.com   
  
8/10
     (1978)      "...the 1978 French farce has the unique advantage of appealing to gays and straights alike, making it one of America’s biggest-grossing foreign imports of all time." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
8/10
     (1978)      "The plot is really quite simple and the finale hilarious, true, but it’s in the sincerity of the two primary characterizations that the movie succeeds." [movie review]      DVDTown.com   
  
7/10
     (1990)      "The film is hardly high art or intellectual philosophy, but it's worth one's time." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
7/10
     (1990)      "With a good cast, slick production values, and gritty action, it passes an enjoyable two hours." [movie review]      DVDTown.com   
  
8/10
     (1955)      "Lady and the Tramp is one of Disney's happiest, cuddliest, most-romantic concoctions. The new, two-disc Platinum Edition does up the movie proud." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
8/10
     (1955)      "Not only is Lady and the Tramp one of Disney's sweetest films, it's one of their loveliest to look at." [movie review]      DVDTown.com   
  
5/10
     (2001)      "There isn't much of the spark of the original movie in this new one, nor the vitality or warmth.... (Limited Edition DVD)" [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
5/10
     (2001)      "Like most sequels, this one doesn't live up to the original." [movie review]      DVDTown.com   
  
7/10
     (1948)      "...a typical noir effort...dark tone, dark streets, dark shadows...trust no one." [movie review]      DVDTown.com   
  
7/10
     (1948)      "Critics at the time held The Lady From Shanghai in low regard, and movie audiences simply ignored it." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
7/10
     (1946)      "The trailer for the movie exclaims, 'Mysteriously starring Robert Montgomery and you!' Uh-huh. Still, it is a unique enough idea that you might want to give it a try." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
7/10
     (1946)      "...the movie is different, and one can hardly say that Lady in the Lake is anything less than entertaining for most of its running time." [movie review]      DVDTown.com   
  
4/10
     (2006)      "Once the filmmaker spells everything out for us in the first fifteen or twenty minutes, the rest of the plot simply unfolds in a jumbled series of incomprehensible events." [movie review]      DVDTown.com   
  
4/10
     (2006)      "I wonder if it isn't about time for Shyamalan to let somebody else do the writing. (HD-DVD Edition)" [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
5/10
     (1988)      "...by having the main character narrate the tale, the suspense of his being seriously injured or killed at any time during the action is greatly diminished." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
5/10
     (1988)      "...atmosphere at the expense of shivers or frights." [movie review]      DVDTown.com   
  
7/10
     (1933)      "In Lady Killer Cagney does a comedic tough-guy, and he does it like almost no one before or since." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
7/10
     (1933)      "Cagney is his usual cocky screen self in Lady Killer, a movie that starts light and gets even lighter as it goes along." [movie review]      DVDTown.com   
  
6/10
     (2004)      "The humor in The Ladykillers seems more appropriate to a bad Farrelly brothers comedy than a Coen brothers production." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
6/10
     (2004)      "The Ladykillers contains several gross errors of judgment that must have given the Coens at least some degree of hesitation at some point in the filmmaking process." [movie review]      DVDTown.com   
  
6/10
     (2006)      "...an attempt to rethink an essentially old-fashioned love story. That it falters under the weight of its own shaky premise is an unfortunate by-product. (HD-DVD Edition)" [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
6/10
     (2006)      "Maybe I'm just overly romantic or sentimental or just plain naive, but I probably liked The Lake House more than I should have." [movie review]      DVDTown.com   
  
5/10
     (1955)      "No wars; no battles; one dinky sword fight. But much pageantry." [movie review]      DVDTown.com   
  
5/10
     (1955)      "...big and imposing, like the Great Pyramid itself and maybe just as enigmatic." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
5/10
     (2001)      "Although it is long on activity, the movie is, in fact, rather short on excitement." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
5/10
     (2001)      "There’s a lot of motion in this motion picture, but not much movie. Video gamers may find it enough; adventure film fans may long for more." [movie review]      DVDTown.com   
  
7/10
     (1942)      "...a cute and harmless film, with Robinson in fine form, an excellent supporting cast, and an abundance of good one-liners. (Warner Bros. Gangsters Collection, Vol. 4)" [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
7/10
     (1942)      "...amusing, lightweight fun, with the biggest gangster star of them all, Robinson, parodying his own gangster-movie persona. (Warner Bros. Gangsters Collection, Vol. 4)" [movie review]      DVDTown.com   
  
8/10
     (1987)      "...a big, beautiful film that suffers only from an indifferent transfer to DVD. ...its human drama and sheer spectacle manage to catch and hold our attention." [movie review]      DVDTown.com   
  
8/10
     (1987)      "Even with its flawed picture quality, The Last Emperor remains an engaging movie experience." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
5/10
     (2006)      "...another Hollywood fabrication about how people act and feel.... substituting theatrics for genuine emotion." [movie review]      DVDTown.com   
  
4/10
     (2002)      "It's simply there, trying desperately to be meaningful by having its actors rev up the volume of their dialogue." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
5/10
     (2006)      "'Relationships either work or they don't,' says Kim. And that's about the extent of the movie's profundity. (Blu-ray Edition)" [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
4/10
     (2002)      "Leave it to those crazy Italians to make a light, breezy, stylish, romantic comedy that is not a whit light, breezy, stylish, romantic, or funny." [movie review]      DVDTown.com   
  
5/10
     (2007)      "...tries hard to be magical, charming, and endearing but remains mostly flat and lifeless." [movie review]      DVDTown.com   
  
5/10
     (2007)      "...too commonplace and too derivative to make much of an impact." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
7/10
     (1973)      "The Last of Sheila is one, big, two-hour puzzle." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
7/10
     (1973)      "The Last of Sheila is a crackerjack brainteaser, even if you forget it two minutes after you see it." [movie review]      DVDTown.com   
  
8/10
     (1971)      "Like those old-time movie houses, our innocence was fast being shuttered up and left behind." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
7/10
     (2003)      "The Last Samurai has the look and feel of a thoughtful, epic fable, even if Hollywood tends to put its own stamp on history as it goes along." [movie review]      DVDTown.com   
  
7/10
     (2003)      "...if you haven't seen high definition before, it can be mighty impressive. (HD-DVD Edition)" [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
6/10
     (2004)      "The story tries to make up for its lack of laughs by offering a series of quirky characters and bizarre moments, a tactic that works for a while but runs out of steam...." [movie review]      DVDTown.com   
  
6/10
     (2004)      "Maybe it fails for trying too hard. It attempts to poke fun at Hollywood, the FBI, and the Mob, in the process losing focus on just who and what it really is spoofing." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
7/10
     (1972)      "writer-director Bernardo Bertolucci’s camera work moves in and around the characters gracefully, caressingly, giving the whole picture a sensually poetic quality. " [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
9/10
     (1978)      "...no mere loud rock concert. It's a work of art. ...a celebration rather than a farewell, and Scorsese's direction always puts the music first." [movie review]      DVDTown.com   
  
9/10
     (1978)      "...the enduring quality of the music helps, the dedicated musicianship, the many helping hands, and Scorsese's loving camera all contribute to its overall success." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
8/10
     (1944)      "The story is a good whodunnit, although it probably isn't half as clever as a mystery as it is a character study." [movie review]      DVDTown.com   
  
8/10
     (1944)      "The noir film as we know it today was in its infancy in 1944, but Laura is one of the movies that brought it to age." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com
