5/10
          "Even if you can get past the racism, there's the stereotypes and stock characters to tackle next." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
4/10
     (1966)      "The writing isn't clever, the sight gags and the routines are familiar. Only the acting by the regulars and guest stars is noteworthy, and how far can you ride a buckboard with no wheels on it?" [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
6/10
     (2006)      "Kendrick needs to learn that didacticism isn't a film aesthetic." [movie review]      DVDTown.com   
  
6/10
     (2006)      "If only Facing the Giants were a film first and a ministry tool second. While the message is heartfelt, there are times when you almost want to shoot the messenger." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
6/10
     (2003)      "A stylish film, but a contrived one that wears on its characters like a straitjacket" [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
6/10
     (1979)      "The four girls do a good job with fairly formulaic and preachy scripts--enough to make it entertaining family fare, if your kids are approaching puberty, that is." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
3.5/4
     (2004)      "Whatever your politics, at least one thing should unsettle or make you think" [dvd review]      Reel.com   
  
3.5/4
     (2004)      "No documentary takes you through the range of emotions the way that Michael Moore's controversial film does" [dvd review]      Reel.com   
  
7/10
     (2005)      "There's something engrossing about this Sen. McCain biopic . . . and something that makes you want to do more with your life, to get involved with a cause." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
6/10
     (2008)      "Visually stunning, but the fantastic narration wasn't nearly engaging enough. And that's a pretty large chunk of the movie to disappoint." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
3/4
     (2005)      "The Family Stone is more about how families fracture and mend themselves than it is about giving, sharing, or any of those traditional messages that are embedded in holiday films." [dvd review]      Reel.com   
  
7/10
     (1983)      "Intelligence and warmth never go out of style." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
7/10
     (1984)      "You end up believing the Keatons are a typical Ohio family, and that's one big reason why the show ran for seven seasons." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
6/10
     (1994)      "With the exception of Chiklis as Ben, the actors and their characters just don't seem charismatic enough." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
7/10
     (2007)      "A big improvement over Story's first Fantastic Four outing." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
6/10
     (1978)      "Nothing great happened from episode to episode and it was hokey as those fake anthuriums placed randomly on every bush and tree, but it was enough to give pleasure to fans." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
5/10
     (1989)      "As an adventure in paradise, Farewell to the King is paint-by-numbers when it had the potential to be a Gauguin." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
4/10
     (2005)      "For a "riveting erotic thriller," Fascination isn't riveting, it's not all that erotic, and to call it a thriller would even make Michael Jackson cringe." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
8/10
          "Frydman's uncanny sense of editing makes this film an unqualified success as a unique blend of documentary, music video, and political history lesson." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
3/4
     (1986)      "Hughes' secret is simple: he clearly thinks of teens as adults who just don't have much experience yet. Polish is another strength. Even when there's not much happening or the comedy is uncomfortably broad, a Hughes film has the sheen of near-perfection." [dvd review]      Reel.com   
  
7/10
     (1992)      "The 1080p picture makes this film look as good as it ever has." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
6/10
     (2005)      "Great animation, but a narrative disappointment." [movie review]      DVDTown.com   
  
10/10
     (2003)      "Humor, not music, drives the film, and Disney swims off into new territory with poke-fun-at-the-process extras." [dvd review]      Reel.com   
  
8/10
     (2004)      "I don't know how penetrating a look it gives into the author's life, but as a film that celebrates the imagination and the power of creativity, it positively soars." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
5/10
     (2009)      "I wouldn't say that Olsen and D'Agosto save this film (no one could have done that), but they're fun to watch." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
2/4
     (2004)      "First Daughter could have made for a lot of laughs or a lot of poignancy, but it misses the mark because it doesn't seriously go after either." [dvd review]      Reel.com   
  
6/10
     (1995)      "This one is pure Hollywood." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
2/4
     (1959)      "The acting is also about as stiff as Sergeant Friday, the special effects aren't much better than the old Flash Gordon serials, and the lines have all the realism and profundity of a fortune cookie." [dvd review]      Reel.com   
  
7/10
     (1984)      "A pretty good warm-up for the real thing." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
8/10
     (2004)      "The wonders of this DVD are the reproductions of friezes, coinage, statues, and decorated pottery that illustrate what the athletes and the gods looked like to the ancients" [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
8/10
     (1999)      "When the going gets tough, the tough RIVERDANCE in this charming fable for pre-schoolers" [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
4/10
     (2008)      "Lately, if you've seen one Ice Cube 'comedy,' you've seen them all." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
7/10
     (1983)      "With engaging characters and storylines, Five Mile Creek rumbles along just fine its first season." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
7/10
     (2005)      "Foster is a master at portraying a woman in terror who's trying to balance her fears with a survival instinct that drives her to somehow prevail." [movie review]      DVDTown.com   
  
3/4
     (2005)      "Yes, there are some stretches here and there, and the star gets lionized, but it was still a tense and exciting ride." [dvd review]      Reel.com   
  
6/10
     (1995)      "Pleasant-enough holiday diversion, but nothing even close to classic." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
6/10
     (2008)      "Flirting with Forty is a female fantasy, with Buckley providing the eye candy." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
7/10
     (1985)      "Though slow-moving in spots, this biopic about the 'mother of modern nursing' stays close enough to the facts to be worthwhile, and has production values rich enough to make the drama come alive." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
1.5/4
     (1996)      "The performers seem limited by the constraints of a Melodramatic Script on the Verge of a Breakthrough but never quite getting there." [dvd review]      Reel.com   
  
3.5/4
     (2006)      "A deliciously eccentric tale with an appealing script chock full of allusions." [dvd review]      Reel.com   
  
7/10
     (1986)      "Purists may still prefer the original for the sheer strength of its monumental build-up, but I think there's a lot to be said for this version and its conflation of romantic comedy and horror conventions." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
7/10
     (2006)      "With great flight sequences and a storyline rooted in facts, Flyboys provides some pretty good entertainment and recreated history." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
6/10
     (1967)      "Insipd plots, but because the actors are earnest, believable and fun to watch, so, ultimately, is this show--which took campiness to new heights. Literally." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
7/10
     (2003)      "It boggles the mind that this is the work of rank amateurs." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
6/10
     (2002)      "It’s not serious drama, or even serious comedy." [dvd review]      Reel.com   
  
7/10
     (2004)      "Some viewers might find the straddling approach between genres annoying, but this film provides solid entertainment and keeps you guessing throughout." [dvd review]      DVDTown.com   
  
3/4
     (1948)      "Darker and more complex than She Wore a Yellow Ribbon and Rio Grande, Fort Apache isn't just a romanticized story of Western heroes." [dvd review]      Reel.com   
  
3.5/4
     (1994)      "A wonderful comedy of manners and a wickedly funny commentary on a cherished institution." [dvd review]      Reel.com   
  
3/4
     (1981)      "This Disney film probably doesn't get as much credit as it deserves, partly because it was produced near the middle of what can only be called a 30-year spell between Golden Ages." [dvd review]      Reel.com   
  
2/4
     (2006)      "Small children and country fans may like The Fox and the Hound 2, but that's about all." [dvd review]      Reel.com
