8/10
     (1994)      "For insights into what it was like to be there, and for a decent overview of Overlord, The History Channel’s 50th anniversary production is one of the better ones" [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
7/10
     (2006)      "Though not as much is explained as in the book and there's not the same wealth of background material, you get enough of a sense of what's going on in The Da Vinci Code to make for a solid mystery-thriller." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
2/10
     (2007)      "Would it have hurt these guys to even remotely consider logic, or to try for a joke that wasn't crude or obvious?" [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
5/10
     (2003)      "Anjelica Huston plays the heavy in this lightweight comedy that has the look and feel of a Disney live-action television show" [dvd review]      Reel.com   
  
7/10
     (1990)      "Bogarde and Birkin turn in solid performances, but you can't escape the feeling that, for all the things that are done well in the film, it might have been somehow better." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
7/10
     (2007)      "It's above-average entertainment, but not nearly the flawless gem that others have described." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
7/10
     (2007)      "The perfect showcase for Carell, who solidifies his Everyman appeal with this performance." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
8/10
     (1992)      "The title story is the weakest in this rich and quirky collection of tales presented in equally varied artistic styles." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
7/10
     (2003)      "The plot is as thin as the characters, but Daredevil delivers plenty of what fans expect: action and great special effects." [dvd review]      Reel.com   
  
7/10
     (2007)      "Anderson quirky!" [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
5/10
     (2005)      "In the end, this just doesn't surprise enough, and when it does surprise, it's unfortunately in the area of logic." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
3.5/4
     (2008)      "Count me among those who think Ledger delivers an Oscar-worthy performance, bringing depth and complexity to a character that hitherto had been portrayed as a one-dimensional comic-book villain." [dvd review]      HollywoodinHiDef.com   
  
5/10
          "Despite some strong performances and a sustained mood, dreadful pacing pulls this one under the murky water." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
6/10
     (2004)      "True art helps people see familiar things in a new way, and that's what Chappelle does when he's in top form—which, in this performance, occurs somewhere near the middle." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
8/10
          "the illusions themselves are amazing enough to have you gasping a bit and chattering away, but the staging is so campy that there’s also plenty of laughs" [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
8/10
     (1954)      "If Disney mined the series for gold, he also gave America something quite golden in the process" [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
8/10
          "It's not just a showcase for Upshaw's range. It's a dialogue between American composers and a British audience, with Upshaw acting as interpreter." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
7/10
     (2001)      "Dawson's Creek is far more literate and polished than the daytime soaps, with better performances and more lavish production values." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
7/10
          "These stories are colorful flights into whimsy, with lessons to be learned." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
3/4
     (1989)      "As consistent and nearly as understated a performance as Robin Williams would give later in Good Will Hunting." [movie review]      Reel.com   
  
7/10
     (2006)      "A reality show that's actually real!" [dvd review]      Reel.com   
  
5/10
     (2006)      "Fans and admirers of Edgar Allan Poe may want to check this out, but The Death of Poe doesn't have the level of acting or script sophistication to make it play in Peoria . . . or anywhere else." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
6/10
     (1977)      "The Deep doesn't exactly give you the bends, but when you come up for air you realize that this was one cinematic dive that could have been deeper . . . and better edited." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
6/10
     (1977)      "The Deep doesn't exactly give you the bends, but when you come up for air you realize that this was one cinematic dive that could have been deeper . . . and better edited." [movie review]      DVDTown.com   
  
6/10
     (2006)      "You've got to fight the feeling of resentment that the filmmakers are exploiting two things, big-time: the outburst of emotion for Katrina victims, and the patriotic fervor and terrorism paranoia that's become a part of our post-9/11 world." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
3.5/4
     (2006)      "It really speaks across the whole wiseguy genre." [dvd review]      Reel.com   
  
3.5/4
     (2004)      "It's part mystery, part situation comedy, and part soap opera, and a terrific ensemble cast manages to pull off this genre juggling act with plenty of zest and flair." [dvd review]      Reel.com   
  
3/10
     (2005)      "Falls way short in the entertainment department, even for an underachieving film that aims for nothing higher than gutter humor." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
8/10
     (2006)      "Anyone who's ever lived in fear of a boss or had to suck up will get a kick out of this intelligent comedy." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
5/10
     (1997)      "A disappointing entry in the IRA thriller sub-genre. Ford and Pitt try their best, but Pitt was miscast and both were betrayed by a mediocre scrpt." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
6/10
     (2007)      "There are gems here, but also too much repetition and anecdotes that aren't pointedly geared toward answering the questions that plague would-be screenwriters--the audience at whom this series is directed." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
3/4
     (1971)      "Whyte's protectors, a pair of deadly female gymnasts named Bambi and Thumper, almost seem better suited to the Bond parody films" [dvd review]      Reel.com   
  
7/10
     (2009)      "Live in Rio is a solid concert, though not as energetic and memorable as Live in Paris." [movie review]      DVDTown.com   
  
7/10
     (2007)      "A solid action film." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
7/10
     (1988)      "Though mathematically the four films may average out to a 7, the two exceptional ones (whether you side with me, or with Willis) will make this Blu-ray set worth adding to your collection." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
6/10
     (1979)      "Throughout the '80s, Diff'rent Strokes was a staple in many American households and still holds a warm spot for Gen X'ers." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
7/10
     (2000)      "It's the small details, like dino-skin, that Blu-ray really brings to life." [movie review]      DVDTown.com   
  
7/10
     (2000)      "Accept the concept and it's easy to appreciate the technical wizardry" [dvd review]      Reel.com   
  
5/10
     (1998)      "The surprises here are two youngsters: Khled Thomas and Aimee Garcia. Both of them have the on-camera charisma that will make them stars down the road." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
7/10
     (1935)      "Taken individually, these cartoons probably merit a 7/10, but they just don't seem to flow from one to the next." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
6/10
     (1960)      "Too bad there aren't more episodes, and too bad there are gaps in the storylines." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
8/10
     (2003)      "Suleiman's film is uniquely engaging, a visual feast—though how emotionally or intellectually satisfying it is will depend on how each viewer responds to the images." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
7/10
     (2007)      "An accomplished film, but the tedium and sadness and that feeling of a long goodbye make it one that can take an emotional toll on viewers." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
7/10
     (1981)      "A solid slice-of-communist-life film that succeeds because it avoids the pitfalls and cliches of the typical, bittersweet coming-of-age film. " [movie review]      DVDTown.com   
  
9/10
     (1965)      "one of the most romantic movies of all time" [dvd review]      Reel.com   
  
2/4
     (2004)      "There are some laugh-out-loud moments, but you have to dodge volley after volley of bad gags throughout this predictable film" [dvd review]      Reel.com   
  
7/10
     (1999)      "For irreverent religious satire, Monty Python's Life of Brian still takes the prize, but Dogma is a respectable runner-up. And in Blu-ray it's even more enjoyable." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
5/10
     (1998)      "Beautiful location photography and interesting shots aren't enough to save Don Juan from the cinematic version of the hell in which this legendary character ended up." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
7/10
     (2006)      "There isn't a lot of plot in Don't Come Knocking, but interesting characters and strikingly memorable settings more than make up for any slightness in narrative." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
5/10
     (2005)      "The artifice that at first makes the film seem artsy and interesting becomes so oppressively heavy-handed that it dominates." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com
