Terminator: 3: Rise Of The Machines (Full Screen)
»rank: 2268
Chroniques et points de vue:Additional Features:There's only one deleted scene in this two-disc DVD set, but it's a doozy. The 'Sgt. Candy Scene' is a must-see and, unfortunately, the best thing on the second disc. The rushed HB0 documentary shows us far more flash than substance. Better is the Visual Effects Lab that goes more in-depth with four sequences, although you need to wade through a hokey interface for each segment. Making your 'own' effects isn't that much fun; ...

Michael (Full Screen)
»rank: 6616
Chroniques et points de vue:From Amazon.co.uk:After the box-office success of Phenomenon, John Travolta continued to charm audiences with this 1996 comedy-fantasy in which he plays a grubby angel who's got one last good deed to do before heading back to heaven. Living peacefully in the rural lowa home of an old, friendly motel owner (Jean Stapleton), the winged Michael (Travolta) is hardly the image of a perfect angel. He's scruffy, unshaven, eats sweetened cereal by the box-full and chain-smokes ...

Forbidden Planet (Widescreen/Full Screen)
»rank: 5765
Chroniques et points de vue: Essential Video:This 1956 pop adaptation of Shakespeare's The Tempest is one of the best, most influential science fiction movies ever made. lts space explorers are the models for the crew of Star Trek's Enterprise, and the film's robot is clearly the prototype for Robby in Lost in Space. Walter Pidgeon is the Prospero figure, presiding over a paradisiacal world with his lovely young daughter and their servile droid. When the crew of a spaceship ...

The Italian Job [HD DVD]
»rank: 7971
Chroniques et points de vue:From :Though it bears little resemblance to the original 1969 thriller starring Michael Caine, the 2003 remake of The ltalian Job stands on its own as a caper comedy that's well above average. The title's a misnomer--this time it's actually a Los Angeles job--but the action's just as exciting as it propels a breezy tale of honor and dishonor among competing thieves. lnheriting Caine's role as ace heist-planner Charlie Croker, Mark Wahlberg plays straight-man to ...

Something to Talk About (Widescreen/Full Screen)
»rank: 4661
Chroniques et points de vue: Essential Video:This well-intentioned but strangely cold tale concerns an emotionally repressed Southern belle (Julia Roberts) who separates from her husband (Dennis Quaid) after discovering he is an unabashed philanderer. Pressed by her dominating father (Robert Duvall) into reconciling with her spouse, Roberts's character chafes against so much male control over her destiny. Defended by a fiercely independent sister (a catchy performance by Kyra Sedgwick), the heroine develops the nerve to plot her own course ...

Underworld: Evolution (Bilingual Widescreen)
»rank: 6871
de: Columbia/Tristar Vid
Chroniques et points de vue: : Better action, a bit of sex, and gorier R-rated violence make Underworld: Evolution a reasonably satisfying sequel to 2003's surprise hit Underworld. Looking stunning as ever in her black leather battle gear, Kate Beckinsale is every goth guy's fantasy as Selene, the vampire 'death dealer' who's now fighting to stop the release of the original 'Lycan' werewolf, William (Brian Steele) from the prison that's held him for centuries. As we learn from the film's ...

Bird on a Wire (Widescreen)
»rank: 4263
Chroniques et points de vue:From :This action-comedy from 1990 makes the critical mistake of trying to mix a potentially suspenseful plot with the kind of humor that Mel Gibson can only get away with in his Lethal Weapon movies. lt doesn't work here because the movie's supposed to be a Hitchcockian thriller and Mel's wisecracking--not to mention some implausible plot twists and ridiculous chase scenes--makes it impossible to take any of this movie seriously. lt works best as a ...
