Pros: Good Acting, Unique Plot
Cons: Some slow times

One of the better Science Fiction Movies in a while. I know it didn't do too well at the box office but it did spawn a sequel with Richard Dean Anderson on Showtime for the last few years and subsequent syndicated release to networks. The film tries...

Pros: Intriguing story, strong performances
Cons: none

Highlander: The 10th Anniversary Director’s Cut: EMI Films/ 20th Century Fox

From the dawn of time we came, moving silently down through the centuries. Living many secret lives,...

Pros: The songs are subtitled so you can sing along!
Cons: NONE

We bought this video for our 2 year old because we didn't think she'd sit through a movie! This video had 3 of the songs/skits from the original movie. This video introduces a new sesame street character "Grizzy". She is a female version of...

Pros: Sean Connery! Queen! Rolling Heads! Gotta Love it!
Cons: ummm... can't think of any off the top of my head.

The saga begins in the highlands of Scotland in the first half of the 16th century, the clan McLeod it going to battle and Conner McLeod is fatally wounded… or is he? he lives and is exiled from his clan and has to go out on his own where he is taught...

Pros: Once the film is in color, the movie is glorious!
Cons: A little scary for the very young.

L. Frank Baum wrote "The Wizard of Oz" in 1899, which is the year my paternal grandmother was born! I'm sure he could never have conceived of the huge success his story would be once it was put up on the silver screen! And how did he think of...

Pros: Beautiful Songs, Great Casting, Audrey Hepburn
Cons: none really

Imagine for a moment that you will go no further in your life because of your education and family background. Imagine being consigned to your fate, that you will never be more than a SAHM or a low-paid flunkey of an insurance agency or that you are...

Pros: A timeless classic, magical movie
Cons: *****MAYBE taken off the air ???******

I absolutely LOVE this movie. This classic tale of a little girl who dreams of a land like no other. The place over the rainbow, only to find that there's no place like home. It will be a favorite to children and adults for many generations to...

Pros: All the Z fighters fighting together.
Cons: ?

You can always depend on Dragonball Z to make a fun and entertaining movie. "Tree of Might" is no exception. This movie contains the same awesome fight scenes, fun plots, and cool characters.

To me this was the best time in the...

Pros: lots of music, fun to watch, funny characters
Cons: None

We originally bought this video for my daughter who is 2 because she is a big Elmo fan but what's funny is my husband & I even enjoy watching it. My daughter will watch it several times a day if she had it her way. The video has lots of music and...

Pros: Plot, animation,
Cons: Short

Having always been a Sailor Moon and anime fan, I decided I had to check out the United States release of the Sailor Moon R movie.

The story is basically about Kisenian, who preys on Fiore, an old friend of Darien, to get the positive energy...

Pros: Very catchy original film with fantastic characters, songs, and acting.
Cons: It is kind of weird and it may not be appropriate for some people (but these days that's just about anything).

Does anyone agree with me that a character like Dr. Frankenfurter can scare a little kid? I'm pretty sure someone out there can go along with me on that one. That guy is a creepy character and when I was a kid, my brother had a poster of this movie...

Pros: A great family movie
Cons: younger kids may be scared by the lion

I could go on and on about this movie, we purchased it less than a month ago for our 4 year old daughter. She watched it 3 times the first day, and for the first week we watched it about twice a day. It has slacked off lately and we are only watching it...

Pros: Beautiful animation, good characterizations, thoughtfully presented themes
Cons: Simple plot, may be too sweet and/or girly for some

Sailor Moon directly follows the second season of the wildly popular magical girl anime show Sailor Moon. Boasting theatrical-quality animation and good characterization, this film is enjoyable for both fans and first-time Sailor...

Pros: It keeps you interested the whole time.
Cons: It's not long enough!

I think that the Sailor Moon R movie is the best out of the three. This is because it really shows how strong Mamoru's (Tuxedo Mask) and Usagi's (Sailor Moon) love for each other is. Also it shows what a self sacrificing, strong, true friend Sailor Moon...

Pros: Interesting characters
Cons: Way too much time spent on scene padding

I recently watched this movie for the first time, ever. I'd heard it was a classic, and required viewing if you wished to refer to yourself as a serious film buff. I'm an admirer or DeNiro's other work, so I figured I'd enjoy this. I didn't. I didn't...
