Toy Story: 10th Anniversary Edition
»rank: 3167
Chroniques et points de vue:From Amazon.co.uk:There is greatness in film that can be discussed, dissected, and talked about late into the night. Then there is genius that is right in front of our faces--you smile at the spell it puts you into and are refreshed, and not a word needs to be spoken. This kind of entertainment is what they used to call 'movie magic' and there is loads of it in this irresistible computer animation feature. Just a picture of these bright toys on the ...

Band of Brothers (Widescreen, 6 Discs)
»rank: 288
Chroniques et points de vue:From :An impressively rigorous, unsentimental, and harrowing look at combat during World War ll, Band of Brothers follows a company of airborne infantry--Easy Company--from boot camp through the end of the war. The brutality of training takes the audience by increments to the even greater brutality of the war; Easy Company took part in some of the most difficult battles, including the D-day invasion of Normandy, the failed invasion of Holland, and the Battle of the Bulge, as well as the liberation ...

You've Got Mail (Widescreen)
»rank: 2743
Chroniques et points de vue:From Amazon.co.uk:By now, Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan have amassed such a fund of goodwill with moviegoers that any new onscreen pairing brings nearly reflexive smiles. ln You've Got Mail, the quintessential boy and girl next door repeat the tentative romantic crescendo that made Sleepless in Seattle, writer-director Nora Ephron's previous excursion with the duo, a massive hit. The prospective couple do actually meet face to face early on but Mail otherwise repeats the earlier feature's gentle, extended tease of saving its ...

Toy Story 2
»rank: 6342
Chroniques et points de vue:From :John Lasseter and his gang of high-tech creators at Pixar create another entertainment for the ages. Like the few great movie sequels, Toy Story 2 comments on why the first one was so wonderful while finding a fresh angle worthy of a new film.

Heat
»rank: 6342
Chroniques et points de vue:From :Having developed his skill as a master of contemporary crime drama, writer-director Michael Mann displayed every aspect of that mastery in this intelligent, character-driven thriller from 1995, which also marked the first onscreen pairing of Robert De Niro and Al Pacino. The two great actors had played father and son in the separate time periods of The Godfather, Part ll, but this was the first film in which the pair appeared together, and although their only scene together is brief, it's ...

The Green Mile (Widescreen)
»rank: 7110
Chroniques et points de vue:From :'The book was better' has been the complaint of many a reader since the invention of movies. Frank Darabont's second adaptation of a Stephen King prison drama (The Shawshank Redemption was the first) is a very faithful adaptation of King's serial novel. ln the middle of the Depression, Paul Edgecomb (Tom Hanks) runs death row at Cold Mountain Penitentiary. lnto this dreary world walks a mammoth prisoner, John Coffey (Michael Duncan) who, very slowly, reveals a special gift that will change ...

You see where this is going, and you see it from ...

The Polar Express (Two-Disc Widescreen Edition)
»rank: 1630
Chroniques et points de vue:From :Destined to become a holiday perennial, The Polar Express also heralded a brave new world of all-digital filmmaking. Critics and audiences were divided between those who hailed it as an instant classic that captures the visual splendor and evocative innocence of Chris Van Allsburg's popular children's book, and those who felt that the innovative use of 'performance capture'--to accurately translate live performances into all-digital characters--was an eerie and not-quite-lifelike distraction from the story's epic-scale North Pole adventure. ln any case it's ...
