DVD Verdict posts insightful, sometimes irreverent, reviews of films in the DVD format. Copyright: HipClick Designs LLC Quote: "If Dirty Money (Un Flic) turns out to be your introduction to foreign films and the French New Wave, it might be a pleasant surprise." Quote: "Even though he's pointing at the follies of modern life, Tati likes people and that comes through in his movie." Quote: "Aside from some CGI effects in the final fight scene that looked cartoonish, The Mummy Returns looks impressive, showing a budget in the vicinity of $100 million on the screen. Sounds good, too." Quote: "If you've already bought Van Helsing on DVD, there's little here that would make anyone go for a double-dip." Quote: "For anyone studying the Cold War era, Berlin-Schonhauser Corner and other DEFA releases are valuable resources, both as examples of propaganda and as records of everyday life in East Germany." Quote: "The story makes up for the lack of special effects, but I'd like to have seen a little more of the strange world beneath the surface." Quote: "Cannon came along before the crackdown on TV violence, and you'll note that some episodes have a high body count. Like many a Western, the bad guys can't shoot straight, although they shoot Frank in the arm a lot. But no matter who's hit, the wounds tend to look like paintball splatters." Quote: "As I watched 10,000 B.C., I found it beautiful and reasonably convincing for a prehistoric epic, but some things -- the narration and the ending -- slowed it down. The economy might have taken its toll on the box office, but as action flicks go, the movie isn't as memorable as Independence Day, mainly because it fizzles out in the end." Quote: "Martin and Lewis are like peanut butter and chocolate? Are you sure it isn't more like peanut butter and vinegar?" Quote: "Stephen King probably wouldn't recognize TV's version of his book, but I've been getting attached to The Dead Zone while watching these DVD sets. It draws its strength not from plots, but from strong acting and interesting, flawed characters." |
