This episode along with "The Stolen Earth" are probably two of my favorites. I love how they reunited everyone to fight the Daleks. Sad to see David Tennant go, however. He was great as The Doctor. And I'll miss Catherine Tate as Donna too. I have not watched seasons five and six yet, but this season is probably one of my favorites so far.

Having only seen the first episode, it may be premature to review this show. That said, both my spouse and I love the show. While the basic plot is predictable and would seem done to death, (family moves for a fresh start and their new home is haunted), the show has so many parts that are unexpected and fresh. The cinematography is strong, as is the casting. One of the best things about the horrifying moments is that they are not explained adnauseum, as so many horror moments are these days. People who are not patient and need everything explained will likely not enjoy this. The lack of resolution is intentional and builds the viewers sense of discomfort and intrigue. Looking forward to more episodes!

I've watched this movie dozens of times, the first being at an ampitheater in Indiana on a cold fall day. I hadn't heard of it before but the tickets were free, so I checked it out. Wow! What a movie! I couldn't believe it, the entire time I was sitting on the edge of my seat, I left with no fingernails at all. All the actors were just terriffic, especially Tommy Lee Jones, who just adds flair to any film he's in. I'm not sure where people get off saying that this movie is too fantastical, either. As they say in the film, one day in Mexico a man saw a smoking fissure in his field; the next day there was a volcano growing there. That story is completely true, and it's happened repeatedly throughout the world. Why couldn't it happen in LA, the most geologically unstable major city? That's like saying that an earthquake can never hit New York City because it just can't happen. And as the current quote on the page said, you can't fight nature? The techniques used in Volcano are used constantly in Iceland and Greenland, which are all highly geologically unstable places with many volcanos. Anywho :) off my soapbox, if you've got a second, check this out on a large TV with a huge sound system! And skip that Dante's whatever, Volcano is the bomb... literally.

We have watched this Arthur movie countless times. We celebrate Chanukah and enjoy watching Francine celebrate with her family...it is always a beautiful moment when the menorah is lit for everyone to see. You can be of any religious faith to enjoy this movie...the kids and I love it(and I'm 40!) We highly recommend it.

It's DEFINITELY NOT for kids, but it's really funny. Silly, and sometimes a little over the top, but lots of laughs nonetheless. I've seen the first four seasons and haven't gotten tired of it yet which says something about a series that could easily lose its humor. Well, actually, I can't say I was impressed with Season Three, but the amusing juvenile humor picked up in Season Four and thus, in my opinion, putting it back on track. Though the characters don't have much new to say, the writers are giving them fresh and funny news ways to say the same o' thing. You're not gonna find the meaning of life here, but I can think of worse ways to spend an hour.

I generally rate movies on, "Will I Buy This Movie?"
If I can buy the movie, it's a movie I'm willing to watch again, and exceptional. This is one such movie.

Not saying there isn't gore, as there is some gore (blood smears, zombies tearing out some tendons), but this is also not like typical horror movies in which someone takes a chainsaw and you see the whole scene.
This is a fantastic comedy. Brilliantly done.
Think "Scary Movie", but not utterly idiotic and stupid.
There's some suspense which I guess classifies this as a mild horror movie (keep in mind, I wasn't scared at all during this movie, I don't think it's a real horror, it's more of a comedy). But more than anything is the humor which is just excellent.
Characters are all quite awesome. There's basically four characters and the rest are zombies.

The BluRay quality is exceptional as well.

Just love this movie, that's all I can say

This is one of my favorite shows of all time, and is perhaps one of the best I have ever seen. I am still baffled as to why it would have been cancelled after only two seasons, but this was during a time when HBO always cancelled their best shows.

It takes place during the Dust Bowl, and revolves around the lives of carnival members and a Methodist preacher's life. The cinematography is beautiful, and the actors are wonderful. The main character is Ben (played by Nick Stahl), whom the carnival picks up after his mother's death. He has the power to heal things, which the carnival members discover early on, and try to exploit. There are many other notable characters, all of whose lives you will become deeply involved in.

I grabbed it right away on prime, mainly because it is hard to find the box dvd set in my area, and much more expensive than the 18.99 I had to pay for it through Amazon. It is fairly cheap to buy both seasons, and you will not regret it.

We couldn't wait for Sherlock to come out on Instant. We purchased the HD. The Amazon Instant Video works well for us and we download all of our purchases. To be safe if our internet goes down. It looks perfect streaming or playing a download file.

Sherlock is one of our favorite series. We love Sherlock in every way but ONE, The Audio.

Episode 1 is perfect Video and audio.
Episodes 2 and 3 have poor audio.

The dialog is fine but the background audio and music is out of phase. It is very hard to listen to and is piercing most of the time. Much of it is painful.
It makes watching the 2nd and 3rd episodes too hard to watch. We have stopped watching them.

We notified Amazon and they said only if other people tell them they will request new files for these. I'm sorry to say that Amazon's Customer Service which is SUPERB, has no way to fix problems like this.

I have heard of other Amazon Instant movies which had perfect Video but the Audio made them unwatchable. This seems to be the case with Sherlock.

This is the HD version. We have not tried the non HD ones. The HD versions are so good looking. Really eye candy.

We hope they fix this soon.

Hong Kong auteur Johnnie To is back and this time he's gone international--heck, this film even competed at Cannes! "Vengeance" is a co-production with France and utilizes French, Chinese, and English as its primary languages. For fans of To's work, "Vengeance" aligns thematically with "The Mission" and "Exiled." But no prior familiarity with To is necessary to enjoy the pleasures that "Vengeance" has to offer. Even though the film is staged in an urban setting, it is essentially an existential gunfighter western with one man seeking retribution for an attack on his family. Moody and contemplative, "Vengeance" is not a non-stop action picture but rather a thoughtful meditation on honor, loyalty, and mortality.

As "Vengeance" opens, a family of four is gunned down at their residence in Macau. As the wife clings to life, her father (French rock star Johnny Hallyday) arrives to provide comfort. With his craggy face and sullen demeanor, Hallyday recalls a "Death Wish" Charles Bronson--and, indeed, it does appear that the film is headed in that direction. Hallyday, a chef by profession, knows his way around a gun but needs help identifying the culprits responsible. He conveniently runs across a team of hitmen (doesn't that always happen when you need it?). Promising them everything he owns, including his restaurant, they join forces and are soon off to Hong Kong to settle the score. But tracking the killers down is just the first stage as the team on Hallyday's payroll unravel some unexpected connections.

To has reassembled many familiar faces from his previous films--I particularly liked Anthony Wong, Lam Kar Tung and Lam Suet as the trio working with Hallyday. A real relationship develops within the team and this, to me, is one of the stronger elements in "Vengeance." There are several finely staged, if somewhat familiar, shoot-outs. A sequence in the park is orchestrated with precision and artistry while the finale is both loopy and surprisingly poignant. One of the more unusual aspects of "Vengeance" is a condition (which I won't reveal) that Hallyday must cope with--but it is done well and really highlights a number of interesting philosophical questions about the nature of revenge. There is a complex and adult subtext within this genre picture about responsibility, what we owe to others and ourselves. "Vengeance" may not be the film you are expecting from its title and set-up, there is an underlying sorrow and a depth that is quite unexpected. Give it a try. KGHarris, 10/10.

Many people have been ripping this release apart without so much as a glance at the product itself. While the DVD may fall short of other recent Collector's Edition DVDs, such as the Alien films, this is a superb presentation, with some genuinely interesting Special Features.

What has sparked the most debate about this release is easily the "Unrated" cut itself. The film is largely the same, running only 6 minutes longer than the original cut. The added scenes are interesting - additional dialogue with the counsellor in the opening, a few extra dialogue sequences between Pitt and Jolie before they learn each others identities, and a handful of alternate takes for certain sequences. Perhaps the most notable - and most controversial - is the extended love scene halfway through the film. The scene is very steamy, but those expecting excessive raunch or skin from the gorgeous stars will be disappointed. This is a love scene, not a sex scene, and there is only the tiniest hint of skin from both actors, with Pitt (or Pitt's body double, as the shot in question is from the neck down) showing the most.

And far the the SPECIAL FEATURES go, the disc is very careful not to double-dip. It includes: (1) Deleted Scenes, including an alternate ending. None of the deleted scenes are repeated from the original reelase, and many are well worth a watch. (2) A feature-length commentary from director Doug Limon that, while informative, offers little insight not mentioned in the original release's commentaries. (3) Doug's Film School. This section is essentially a breakdown of abandonded concept and sequences that never made it on film. Of note is a lengthy alternate version of the Desert sequence, located at a snowy mountaintop and ending in a hand-to-hand battle between a masked Pitt and Jolie, as well as several animatics for various sequnces throughout the films. Also of note is the inclusion of the deleted "villain" sequences mentioned of the commentary of the first release's commentary. (4)Confidential Files. This is actually where the deleted scenes are located. Also included in the "file" is a 4-minute gag reel, and a hidden Easter Egg (another deleted scene). (5) Behind the scenes documentary. This 30-minutes featurette offers more insight than that of the original release, as well as a significat amount of B-Roll footage from several of the film's major set piees, including the in-house battle and the desert scene. (6) Photo Gallery. 2 dull on-screen scroll-through photo galleries.

While this reelase has met with much criticism, those who enjoyed the movie should be informed that this is one of the rare double-dips that doesn't FEEL like a double-dip. No features are repeated from the original release, and the unrated movie itself is different enough from the theatrical version that it is well worth owning both versions. Also, the picture is much clearer and less grainy, and the sound more crisp.

The disc also includes a DVD insert, with random facts about the film anda Chapter List (36 Chapters).

Grade: B+

I was looking forward to this film after having seen the trailer, but it came and went quickly. While the story is a bit slight, and the last portion of the film plays out like an adventure game, I would recommend at least renting this one. I liked the fact that none of the kids were smart-alecky stereotypes and there was none of the usual pandering to popular culture that destroys so many other young adult films and renders them to the dustbin of history ten minutes after their release. Furthermore, it was refreshing to see a film that doesn't require main characters (especially children) to fight a war or kill something in order to succeed. Instead, the kids rely on their ingenuity to overcome obstacles. I don't necessarily assume "wholesome" means "worthwhile," but City of Ember retains a kind of innocence in its adventure while still remaining watchable and interesting.
