Here is a one-disc cheapie version of the two “Witch Mountain” films. This is an economical alternative to the separate 2003 releases of these films, however, this release is lacking all of the wonderful extras and audio commentaries. This edition would make a great gift for casual fans who simply want to see the movies. And if you’ve not seen them before, here are my comments:

In “Escape To Witch Mountain” (1975), Tia and Tony Malone are two psychic, orphaned aliens on the run from a evil capitalist (Ray Milland) who wishes to use their powers for gain. This particular film is a nice departure from the usual 70s Disney fare in that it treats its sci-fi subject matter rather seriously, not devolving into camp as was the usual recipe for films of the era. Eddie Albert has a nice turn as a bitter widower who befriends the children, as the three of them go on the run; almost like a kids’ version of “The Fugitive.” The chase scenes are endless but suspenseful and mostly engaging. The special effects are few and generally revolve around objects being levitated. Look for a hands-free marionette show that could have given Maria VonTrapp and that lonely goatherd a run for their money. The film was shot in 1975, but there is very little in the picture to date it, besides some rather clumsy process shots at the film’s finale of a UFO and a flying Winnebago. The UFO was cheesy even for its day. However, the film was very successful among children of the time because of the relatable characterizations of the two leads and the believability factor that Disney provided.

The same cannot be said for the 1978 sequel, “Return From Witch Mountain.” Quite unlike its predecessor, this film is all about camp. HIGH camp. Whereas the first film was a bit coy about the use of the kids’ powers, this one exploits those powers for all they’re worth. People fly through the air. Cars fly, crash, and magically are put back together. Goats go for taxicab rides. The film is far less believable, but still a lot of fun. You know you’re in for a camp-fest when the villains turn out to be none other than Christopher Lee and Bette Davis! The plot this time concerns the two aliens taking a little vacation in sunny Los Angeles. Christopher Lee, playing a character named Victor (what else?) uses a mind control device to seize Tony’s little alien brain and it isn’t long before cars fly through the air, gold bricks disappear from a museum, and a plutonium processing plant is under psychic siege. Tia runs for help from a would-be preteen street gang, and Jack Soo, playing a truant officer in a nice supporting part. The “gang” is strictly a Disney version of a gang, with names like “Muscles” and “Dazzler.” The Los Angeles they inhabit looks more like Dresden after World War II, but it’s just a short trip from the Rose Bowl and Victor’s castle, yes I said castle, somewhere in the heart of L.A. where he’s got Tony strapped up to enough dated 50s lab equipment to bring Frankenstein back again. The UFO shots in this film are, if possible, even worse than in the first film. Some of them even look like they were stock footage from “Escape.” These shots nearly killed the picture, seeing as how it was released after “Star Wars.” Bette Davis is a star soprano of camp, hitting the high notes in her role as a aging socialite who finances Victor’s evil experiments. She’s at her woozy boozy best, barking out commands at the top of her lungs and abusing all in sight. All in all, these movies are two very different movie experiences. The difference in tone in the second movie may be jarring for some fans; they’ll just have to turn up the volume on their Suspension of Disbelief–in order for it to be heard over Bette Davis.

I’m glad to see these movies released on DVD together. For those of us whose storage space is at a premium, it solves a couple problems.

Seriously, I saw these movies for the first time several years ago, after seeing the Direct-to-TV Disney remake, which made me want to see the originals. They are very different. About all they really have in common is the title, and kids with strange powers.

The classics are usually considered the better though, and these kids turn in great performances in both movies.

In “Escape to Witch Mountain”, Tony and Tia Malone are placed in an orphanage, not really knowing where they came from. Tia carries a strange box with her that has two stars on it. From the beginning, it’s apparent that they are not your garden variety kids, as they manifest unusual abilities which either unnerve or thrill those around them. On a field trip, Tia saves a man (Donald Pleasance of “Halloween” fame) from getting into his limousine, moments before it is totaled by an out-of-control vehicle. Pleasance relays this to his employer, a greedy millionaire who adopts Tony and Tia, with plans to exploit their powers. When they discover his plans, the kids flee, stowing away in the RV of a grouchy Eddie Albert (best known for the TV series “Green Acres”), who eventually gives into their charm and helps them find their way to a place called Witch Mountain. Throughout the movie, Tony and Tia’s early memories come back to them and they realize the reason they have these powers is because they are from another planet, and the last survivors of their homeworld have settled on Earth. But with the millionaire on their tails, can they find their way back to their own kind? I won’t tell you the ending. See it for yourself.

In “Return from Witch Mountain”, it is evident how much time passed between the two movies. Tony is a young teenager, and Tia is now becoming a young woman. They return from their isolated community on Witch Mountain for something of a vacation among the people of Earth. But when a rich criminal woman and her equally greedy scientist henchman observe Tony using his powers, they kidnap him. Thanks to the scientist (Christopher Lee of Star Wars and Lord of the Rings), they put a mind control device on Tony, making him their slave. They begin exploiting his powers to pull off dangerous criminal heists, which raises the police’s attention. Meanwhile, Tia is abandoned in the streets and makes the friendship of a gang of tough, but kind, street kids, who eventually rise to her assistance as they attempt to rescue Tony from the control of the bad guys! Again, no ending from me! See it yourself.

In some ways though, I liked the 1995 remake better, since it had more people I was familiar with, and the remake left me with a kind of warm fuzzy feeling which the originals didn’t quite manage to do. But Disney still hasn’t released the remake on DVD, and it’s been years since I’ve seen it listed in the TV guide.

Disney’s quality has definitely gone downhill over the past decade. About the only good thing they have on their channel these days is “The Suite Life”.

So, if you want good Disney entertainment, go for their older stuff. It may not be superfancy, but at least it’s got quality. And the Witch Mountain movies are a good example of that quality.

Generally panned by critics upon its release, Point Break has gone on to enjoy something of a minor cult following among action film fans who enjoy its breathlessly choreographed action sequences involving daring bank heists, car chases, skydiving and, of course, surfing – one of the film’s most important selling points. The film came along after Patrick Swayze’s phenomenal success with Ghost and he went completely in the opposite direction with this film. Point Break also proved to be a warm-up for Keanu Reeves who would become a full-fledged action hero with Speed a few years later.

Buy,Download, Or Stream Point Break! Click Here

Point Break trots out and downright revels in stereotypes: Utah is the all-American good guy, Pappas is the burn out cop and they are constantly being chewed out by their jerk-off boss (McGinley) for their screwball antics. Surprisingly, it’s Swayze’s Zen master/surfer/bank robber that doesn’t fall into an easy stereotype and comes across as the most interesting, charismatic character in the entire movie. And you have to give the credit to Swayze and his oddly fascinating performance. There is a nice scene where he tells Utah his philosophy of surfing, “It’s a state of mind. It’s that place where you lose yourself and find yourself.” We find ourselves rooting not for Reeves’ bland FBI agent but Swayze’s thrillseeking surfer.

Point Break is the epitome of a guilty pleasure: to dumb to defend rationally but with action sequences too cool to dismiss totally. It’s a big, loud comic book of a movie and it knows it and has the conviction to go for it. But is it worth purchasing on DVD if you already own a copy?

First up are eight deleted scenes that include more footage of Utah trying to surf. We also see him get more grief from his boss for his undercover work. There are other little bits of excised footage that doesn’t really amount to all that much.

“It’s Make or Break” is a retrospective featurette. Busey, Petty and Swayze all contribute new interviews for this DVD and talk about their experiences making the movie.

“Ride the Wave” examines the spirituality of surfing. The ocean is a double-edged sword – at once very beautiful but also very dangerous. This extra also takes a brief look at the surfer culture.

“Adrenaline Junkies” examines the exciting stunts staged in the movie. Like his character, Swayze was into skydiving but the studio did not want him to do it. However, if you look at the first skydiving sequence, he really jumped out of the plane!

“On Location: Malibu” is a more light-hearted extra as two of the Ex-Presidents (who were actual surfers) John Philbin and Bojesse Christopher take us on a mini-tour of key locations in Malibu used in the movie. They crack jokes and reminisce about key scenes.

Also included are three trailers and a behind-the-scenes stills gallery.

Review

A gang of Southern California surfers tear up the waves, while enjoying the sun, sand and the sea. But in their spare time they also double up as Bank robbers and commit their crimes masked as American presidents. The gang led by Bodhi (Patrick Swayze)have been making some serious hits.

Finally the law in the form of FBI agent Johnny Utah (Keanu Reeves) and his partner, Pappas (Gary Busey)suspect the sand lovers and decide to infiltrate them by going undercover.

Throw in skydiving, some pretty boy male bonding action and a little bit of love into this cocktail, this turns out to be a pretty decent film. The acting is saved with good pacing and a commendable script; which is not as predictable as 1 might think.

It’s worth a watch, definetly!!!

The Dvd

The film itself will be presented in 2.35:1 anamorphic widescreen, along with both English Dolby Digital 5.1 and 4.0 Dolby Surround tracks.

Extras will include deleted scenes (Holistic Fitness With Agent Pappas, Agent Johnny Utah Thinks He Can Surf, Tyler Saves Johny From The Waves, Penetration Of The Social Infrastructure, Tyler & Johnny Spend Time Alone In The Water, A Basic Hit & Run, Tyler Accuses Johnny Of Using Her, and Johnny & Bodhi Talk About Robbing Banks), an It’s Make or Break featurette, a Ride the Wave featurette, an Adrenaline Junkies featurette, an On Location: Malibu featurette, a still gallery, and three theatrical trailers

++ Though the inital dvd loses the DTS track.. the DTS track was horrendous in the 1st place…So for me personally, i’d rather not have it….

Stream Strictly Ballroom Online. Movie Title: Strictly Ballroom Average customer review: Strictly Ballroom is available for streaming or downloading. Click Here to Stream or Download Strictly Ballroom

Baz Luhrmann at his finest. This terrific film is really three movies in one. First, there’s the enormous dance movie whcih centers on Scott Hastings (Paul Mecurio) and his struggles to introduce ‘new steps’ to the sheltered world of Austrailian ballroom dancing. For dance afficiandos, despite the big comedy that infuses the movie, the dancing is the loyal thing. Mecurio is a formally trained dancer and you simply can’t false, edit, or body-double the moves he pulls off in this film. Even if you’re not a dancer, Mecurio’s athletiscism alone is worth seeing.

The second movie is a Dirty Dancing-style, boy-meets-ugly-duckling account. The narrative allows you to inspect tedious the covers of a first generation Australian and her awkward attempts to fit into a recent culture while maintaining her European ties at home.

The third movie is what sets Strictly Ballroom apart from the field – tremendously droll, large caricatures squabbling around the periphery of Scott and his struggle to bring his ‘new steps’ to the Pan-Pacific Championships. Pat Thompson is hysterical as Doug’s mother Shirley, and Bill Hunter is wonderfully over-the-top as dancing kingmaker Barry Fife (’There are no unique steps!’) . But attention first-time viewers – hold your eyes on Barry Otto as Scott’s father, Doug Hastings. This unique, seemingly shell of a man is actually the emotional core of the film. He provides the movies funniest moments (particularly – as other reviewers have alluded to – a flashback sequence so over-the-top hilarious that it defies description) and its most relevatory ones.

Play this film over and over again and you will never be disappointed.

This Australian gem is one of those rare films that entertains, thrills and pokes fun at an established activiity (in this case, a ballroom dance federation) .

To buy this film seriously is to miss out on one of the broad moviegoing/ moviewatching experiences of the past 15 years.

In a nutshell, an up-and-coming champion ballroom dancer gets bored dancing the same tired steps that everyone has danced in competition the past 50 years and wants to fracture out and do things his blueprint. Of course, his intention is the better contrivance, but that causes all the angst, high drama, dashed hopes and swear hilarity that ensues as forces clash to prevent the young man from taking the ballroom dancing world by storm and up to a modern level.

Of course, it’s what we’ve all, always, expected: Things don’t change in such events because those who think and issue can only judge/teach that with which they are familiar.

The cast is perfect, from the dashing young lead embodied by Australian ballet notable Paul Mercurio to the panicked, at-first clumsy female lead played by Tara Morice (who also lends her vocals to Cyndi Lauper’s “Time After Time” in a fine rooftop pas de deux as she starts learning how to dance with him) .

Paul’s mother — beautifully and hysterically portrayed by Pat Thomson — and his seemingly introverted, unique father — a wonderfully giddy Barry Otto — are perfectly realized, as are all the other roles, including Bill Hunter’s terrifically change-resistant Barry Fife, president of the dance federation.

This is probably Baz Luhrmann’s most mainstream movie, since it’s more firmly grounded in the now than anything else he’s done.

Be on the lookout for a fine cinematic moment during an outdoor sequence at the girl’s house with the lead learning from her father how to correctly dance the Paso Dobles. When it’s positive he’s gotten the hang of it, the camera does a closeup on him turning and then cuts to an oncoming hiss, that parallels the house, sweeping down the lower correct of the camouflage. It’s one of those Luhrmann touches that status him apart from most other working directors.

“Strictly Ballroom” is a fabulous entertainment that flows along so hasty..and has dramatic highs…and even more thrilling dancing highs…that most of you will be very sorry when it’s over.

But never awe…it holds up very well on relate viewings. It’s one of my most-played videos.

This little gem, starring Susan Hayward & Robert Preston is a real bargain at this price! I’ve seen it a few times & still find Ms. Hayward’s performance mesmerizing. Robert Preston, who is usually known for his musical roles(especially The Music Man)is superb as the oilman she becomes involved with. Very highly recommended, especially for Hayward fans.

This review refers to the Alpha Video (Gotham) DVD.

Overall Quality of DVD: **1/2 /**** Sound: ** /**** Plot: **1/2 /**** Acting: ***/**** Cinematography: ***/**** Direction: **1/2 /****

The story is surprising in the fact that it deals with concern for conservation , the environment and treatment of native indians.

Of course, the oil companies paid no attention then nor now.

All the actors do very well – nothing great but very solid. Director Stuart Heisler is a good “B” director but I disagree with the reviewer that stated he “MADE” Susan Hayword a star. If anything Susan Hayword made him look decent just as Humphrey Bogart does with “Tokyo Joe”.

The rear-projection scenes of the oil fields on fire are nearly flawless – I mean, I could not note the telltale signs of rear-projection (things appearing out of proportion or hazy etc.).

In my opinion, it’s worth the asking price.

Watch Dog Soldiers Movie Online. Movie Title: Dog Soldiers Average customer review: Dog Soldiers is available for streaming or downloading. Click Here to Stream or Download Dog Soldiers

I was looking forward to watch DOG SOLDIERS ever since I read a very favorable article about it in a British horror film magazine. When I spotted the DVD here on amazon, I immediately ordered it.
DOG SOLDIERS revolves around a squad of British soldiers on a training mission in the Scottish highlands. Soon strange things start happening. They encounter a badly wounded Special Operations officer, whom they take with them. Attacked by werewolves, the squad suffers the first casualties but manages to make a narrow escape with the help of a young woman. After reaching a remote farm, things turn from bad to worse when their car is destroyed by their devilish furry foes. Besieged, with no radio or phone connection, despairetly trying not to panick and running out of ammo, a fierce fight ensues with the almost invincible werewolves…
WOW! WOW! And again WOW! To my point of view DOG SOLDIERS is one of the greatest horror films of all time, exceptionally well written, fastpaced with a strong storyline and likeable characters, who are not the mere monsterfodder as usual. You actually care for the sympathetic guys ( with the exception of the special operations officer ). It is a real pleasure to watch a fright flick without the usual cast of annoying teens. I also found it refreshing that DOG SOLDIERS lacks the silly humour considered indespensable by so many directors. The plot is very inventive and makes good use of the locations. DOG SOLDIERS is relatively violent and gory ( the disembowellment of the sergeant made me wince) but it is not splatter for splatter’s sake. And a horror movie without CGI is a real viewing pleasure in itself.
Some remarks on the DVD:
You can choose between a widescreen and a fullframe presentation. As for extras, you have an audiocommentary, a featurette and two trailers, the international and the domestic one. The international one is widescreen, quite good, but gives away too much of the film, while the domestic one is presented fullscreen and doesn’t do the film justice.

Every few years a horror film comes along that simply wows genre fans. Maybe it has something to do with awesome gore effects, or a better than average plot, or great performances by previously unknown actors; it might even resemble something like “Dog Soldiers,” a recent film that contains all of the above mentioned attributes along with a nifty reworking of one of horror’s old touchstones: the werewolf story. Whatever it is that makes a horror film stand out, we need more movies that look like this one. “Dog Soldiers” seemed to come out of nowhere, like manna from heaven feeding weary horror fans slogging through the deserts of slasher film retreads and the recent trend of mediocre remakes. The fact that this gripping take on the werewolf legend comes from the British Isles makes it even more remarkable. The misty climes of the Scottish highlands are the perfect setting for such a bleak movie. Remember how successful “An American Werewolf in London” was when it took place in the same bleak atmosphere? You get that type of oppressiveness in “Dog Soldiers” as well.

No one really believes in werewolves anymore. The whole business about people changing into bloodthirsty wolves when a full moon comes out just doesn’t seem as scary in a world of serial killers and terrorism. And shooting a beast through the heart with a silver bullet or stabbing them with a silver blade? C’mon! Something as easy as that wouldn’t even turn Jason Voorhees’s head for a second! Yep, in today’s world you will need something much more involved than a couple of hairy brutes roaming around in the woods once a month. Fortunately, you get much more with “Dog Soldiers.” How about an entire family of werewolves, a squad of heavily armed soldiers on a training exercise in the wilds of Scotland, and a deserted house in the middle of nowhere? How about a guy brave enough to take on an eight-foot tall werewolf with his bare hands? How about enough gunfire to make “Scarface” look like a Disney film? If you think lycanthropes and assault weapons go together like milk and cookies, you will adore this film.

The plot is seductively simple: a squad of army regulars, including a tough as nails soldier who recently flunked out of SAS training because he wouldn’t shoot a dog, runs into more than they can handle during a routine exercise out in the hills. They uncover a group of SAS troops torn to pieces in the wild, and find only one survivor of the group cowering nearby (who just happens to be the guy who flunked our sturdy hero out of the SAS). This colonel rants and raves about how there are more of “them” then we thought, and how there’s no way to stop them, and other seemingly mad statements. One thing’s for certain: anything that can turn a group of SAS commandos into hamburger would send me running home to mother. The regular army guys recognize this danger, too, and decide to scoot right out of the hills and back to civilization.

Regrettably, whatever attacked the SAS guys suddenly reappears to wreak havoc on our group of heroes. While fleeing through the woods from these shadowy figures, the men stumble upon a vehicle driving along a country lane. As it turns out, the car contains a beautiful young lass who knows all about what’s going on in the woods. It’s werewolves out hunting for the night, she says, and as if to emphasis this point the lycanthropes attack the car. The group manages to get to a nearby house and barricade themselves inside, but the vehicle goes up in flames and now there is no way out until morning. The rest of the film consists of one lengthy combat scene after another, as the soldiers use machine guns, blades, and their bare hands to hold off the group of enraged wolves. Another thing: for some reason best left unsaid here, the werewolves seem to resent the soldiers holing up in this particular house. These guys just cannot get a break.

With the exception of one scene well into the movie that strains the bounds of believability, everything works in “Dog Soldiers.” The characters are interesting and well developed, especially the Sergeant leading the platoon and the rejected SAS soldier. Even the evil SAS colonel who knows much more than he is letting on adds a fun dimension to the film. Throw in literally gallons of blood and gore, gallows humor dialogue, and pacing that fairly grabs you around the neck and you have a horror classic for the ages with this gem. I should also mention that “Dog Soldiers,” at one point in the movie, actually made me jump so high out of my chair that I nearly hit the ceiling. You probably won’t see this shock coming, and I won’t spoil it for you, but if you don’t react in some way when it happens, you’re probably comatose. I salute a movie that can inspire such a jolt in my jaded system. It wouldn’t surprise me at all if “Dog Soldiers” gets a sequel in the near future, if not for any big box office numbers then for heavy rental numbers and enthusiastic praise from many horror fans. I could watch this film again and again without ever getting tired of it, and I think you will like it too if you give it a chance.

Overall excellent collection of Stories, Highly Recomended, Enjoy.

Amy Lynn has already done a terrific job of summarizing these stories, so I won’t repeat that, but I do have a couple of things to add:

1) I wish they would do more of these collections so we can remember our favorite UM episodes.

2) The discs include director/producer commentary for some of the segments. This is a great behind the scenes look at the making of the show.

3) My favorite episode from this collection, “Texas Most Wanted” is interesting for several reasons. It’s a very well-done look at a horrible crime, the story of the murder of Larry Dickens by a violent pervert. The episode led directly to the perp’s capture. The interviews with Dickens’ mother and sister were very sensitive and well-handled. This is “Unsolved Mysteries” at its top-notch best.

BTW, take a good look at the actor who played Larry Dickens. That’s Matthew McConaughey.

Virtually unnoticed by critics and the public, you’ve probably never heard of this one, but it’s one of the best teenage coming of age movies. Not a big budget movie but nonetheless very well made. While the basic plot is fairly simple, the twists and turns that occur along the way are creative and hilarious. The cast put everything into this one-excellent performances all around. You could tell they believed in this movie. Clever and funny from start to finish, this is a delightful movie.

Three O’clock High is one of the best 80’s teen films there was. Unfortunately, it didn’t seem to attain the instant cult status that other films of similar theme like “Fast Times at Ridgemont High” and “Ferris Bueller’s day off” did.

Nearly 20 years after its release, Three O’clock High is still a film that is classic in every aspect of 1980’s high school antics on the big screen. With big hair, colorful clothes and an instrumental soundtrack from Tangerine Dream, the film takes us back to the day Jerry Mitchell met Buddy Revell.

Buddy Revell (played by Richard Tyson, who in film would later go on to be a pilot in “Black Hawk Down”, a sinister villain in “Kindergarten Cop” and an intense Detective in “There’s Something about Mary”) is a new kid in school. The problem is, he’s a problem child. He’s big, mean and has been known to go ballistic when people touch him. Revell arrives at this new high school amid a swarm of urban legends and hallway gossip that strike fear into the student body. Jerry Mitchell is a kid who works at the school bookstore, has an occult obsessed girlfriend who is more wannabe than weird, and a friend who works on the school paper with him. The friend is in charge of finding someone to to interview Buddy to find out more about him. Through an accidental meeting in the bathroom, Jerry conveys the papers intentions to Buddy, which by now has held a sneer so long he is being compared to Charles Manson. Jerry makes the mistake of patting Buddy on the shoulder, and the rest is history: Buddy informs Jerry to meet him at 3:00pm so that they can fight. The problem? Buddy looks like a large axe murder while Jerry resembles more of a kid who is on his way to becoming an accountant or something.

The rest of the day plays out in a series of bizarre events that are wrapped up in some high school fact as well as teenage spoof reel. Jerry goes through a variety of antics to get out of the fight, and in the process slowly turns his own good image into one of trouble. By noon the entire school not only knows of the fight, but also is taking bets on how long Jerry will last. It appears Jerry is doomed, and as he continues to try and do everything he can to change things, the acts only backfire to keep him within the walls of his high school till the sound of the final bell. The movie does an excellent job in the execution of the overall filming, as it does many quick zoom shots as well as odd angles to add to the uniqueness of the overall experience we see as Jerry goes about his day.

The film is nostalgic but not too cheesy on the time period of the 80’s, which is easy to scoff at now. The attention of the film is centered on the characters and the storyline a bit more than others of its genre. From the school disciplinarian resembling a Prison Warden to the constant guilt trips the principal plays on Jerry about his permanent record being marred, its idealisms and humor are easily recognizable. Tyson is superb as the scary, imposing bully type student while Casey Siemasziko does a great job portraying the small, pale student named Jerry Mitchell, who despite having a bad day, ends up finding out what its all about to stand up for yourself. A classic 80’s film that never, ever got the credit it deserved.

I often go back to watching this movie every now and then because I really do like it. It’s not Oscar material for sure, but it’s good and enjoyable and almost anything that Martin Lawrence is in, is great. He’s funny and yet in this, you can see he’s got a more serious side too. I do agree with some other reviewers that it is a semi cross between Fatal Attraction and Boomerang. There are moments of comedy and moments of insanity with the female lead. Darnell meets Brandi outside his club, Chocolate City, and she looks like she has it all. Limo driver, fine crib in Malibu, good paying job, but that’s only the surface.

He can’t say he wasn’t warned. His mother (Della Reese) said near the start that there is a fine line between love and hate, and also Brandi (Lynn Whitfield) told Darnell that it wouldn’t be a good thing if she were hurt and she also told him in bed for their first time, that she’d killed her husband because he’d been abusive. He should have heard warning bells then, but didn’t.

I love watching this; it’s funny in parts and also fun watching Brandi go off the deep end. I love the music throughout the movie and if you are a fan of Black cinema, then check it out. It’s an old favourite of mine and really enjoy it.

I thought this movie was a mix of Boomerang and Fatal Attraction. It had a nice cast (Martin Lawerence, Lynn Whitfield, Bobby Brown (small role, but he did his thing), Regina King). Ladies man gets caught up when he plays the wrong woman, and becomes a victim of her revenge. The movie is not super great, but it was a fun movie. There are parts that will make you laugh.

I’m a kid again as I view the 5th season of Daniel Boone from the 1960’s. I worship the special features and Liberation has done a fabulous job restoring the shows! If you want a satisfactory record (though not historically moral) with solid family values introduce yourself and your family to Daniel Boone – it’s timeless!

Daniel Boone season 5 is ample but no Mingo and the begining has a different soundtrack not as safe as the earlier seasons, but other wise it’s huge dvd place 7 discs
