Walt Disney Treasures - Zorro The Complete First Season
WALT DISNEY TREASURES: ZORRO THE COMPLETE FIRST SEASON - El Zorro rides again!
by desslok
Pros: Well staged action and a surprising amount of production value for the day.
Cons: The print run is limited to 30,000 so getting a copy may be hard
When it comes to cartoons, I'll admit that I was always a Warner Brothers fan over a Disney fan. Oh, sure I watched my fair share of The Wonderful World of Disney on television as a kid, and was exposed to my fair share of Mickey, Donald, et al. ...

Two Good Episodes, Still A Tired Medium: "Monty Python's Flying Circus" Volume 3!
by wlswarts
Pros: Funny episodes, Good chemistry in the troupe members
Cons: Not the absolute best from the men, Medium issues.
There is something amusing about writing a review of a product and then the next day coming upon the opportunity to write a review where the connection would not otherwise be evident. Such is the case for me now, as I consider "Monty Python's Flying ...

Zack and Miri Make a Porno
Smith Struggles To Stay Relevant In An Apatow-Dominated Comedy Environment
by JiggyJay
Pros: Great cast, a lot of funny gags (pun intended), Smith's usual charm, his growth
Cons: Cut and paste Apatow, cheesy love story (I won't be the first to say so)
When I saw Kevin Smith's Q&A a few months ago in Seattle, a question was brought to his attention referring to his last film, 2008's Zack and Miri Make A Porno, and how it proved to be Seth Rogen's lowest grossing movie he made and the overall ...

Dazed and Confused

Pros: Funny "slice of life" film filled with "before they were stars"; Great soundtrack
Cons: Heavy drug content, profanity and sexual innuendo likely to offend some
In 1993, I was a fifteen year old who enjoyed classic rock and shopping at thrift stores for vintage gear. Naturally, I saw Richard Linklater's Dazed and Confused several times after it came out that year. Not having seen the movie in a few years, ...

Pieces
Pieces is a foolish but fun piece of horror sleaze
by denisenoe
Pros: A fun atmosphere in a film that does not take itself seriously. A surprise villain.
Cons: Plot incoherence together with direction, screenplay, and acting that are mediocre.
Pieces opens in 1942 with a boy of about ten putting together a jigsaw puzzle. Appearing a picture of innocence, the boy recites "Humpty Dumpty" while music suggesting a child's music box plays in the background. The boy's mother enters the room and ...

Black Dynamite
BLACK DYNAMITE - we can dig it!
by desslok
Pros: One of the best Laugh-out-loud comedies I've seen in years
Cons: The film is about 10 minutes too long.
You know my problem with The Spoof as a movie genre. For every genre defining Airplane! we get a dozen tepid Meet the Spartans or Scary Movies. And then you add in the fact that a blaxploitation genre is almost a spoof in itself ...

Cons: Last third of my copy had no sound.
