Flipper (1996) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I originally bought this movie for my 9-year-old daughter who is a huge fan of both dolphins and Elijah Wood. I didn't expect, however, that the entire family would enjoy it as much as we did! The story was interesting, suspensful and heart-warming. The acting was good -- not cheesy at all (as was another reviewer's opinion). The only complaint I had was the occasional (and unecessary) profanity ... which from what I could tell would be the only reason for it's PG rating. Otherwise this a great movie for the entire family and I would highly recommend it.

Gus (1976) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The California Atoms need a miracle. They've been in last place for so long that they have very few fans in the stadium for football games. In a desperate attempt to build attendance, the owner, Mr. Cooper, flies over Gus, a mule from Yugoslavia that kicks field goals. Soon, the mule and his owner Andy are being used to score points in the games. In an attempt to keep the team, Mr. Cooper makes a bet with his creditor that if the team wins the Super Bowl, he can keep the team. But the creditor won't make it easy. As the season progresses, the stakes get higher and the laughs get louder.
Sure, this is a completely unrealistic movie. And you can probably guess every single plot point long before it happens. But this is another case of having so much fun getting there that you really don't care. I watched this movie many times as a kid, but hadn't watched it for years until recently. I was laughing right from the start, and the final scene made me laugh just as hard as it always did. I do wonder how some of the big name cast (like Tom Bosley and Ed Asner) got talked into this movie, but they do a great job and it's great fun as a result.
The DVD, on the other hand, could have been better. Even though the package doesn't admit to it, this film was obviously originally widescreen, and the cut made for this DVD is bad. Usually I don't notice too much of a difference, but here people were often half on the screen and it was obvious we were missing bits of the action because of the edit. The picture quality could have also used a little sprucing up, with grain showing up on a fairly regular basis. It's noticeable, but not enough to truly detract from the film.
If you're in the mood to laugh, this is the film for you. If you already have the VHS, there's no reason to rush out to upgrade. If you don't already own it, the DVD is a fine additional to any movie collection. Unfortunately, this is probably the best we'll ever get for this film.

A cast of comedy pros, including the hilarious Don Knotts and Tim Conway, make this Disney classic a sure winner! Low-ranking football team The California Atoms are at a constant loss until they recruit a new player -- a mule named Gus. It turns out that Gus is an amazing placekicker with a 100-yard field goal ability! Just as the Atoms begin to leave their losing streak in the dust, crooks attempt to kidnap their new star. Whether it's a surefooted race to the goalposts or a riotous chase down supermarket aisles, action in this Disney favorite is sure to make your family cheer!

Flipper (1963) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I grew up watching the Flipper TV series and it was always one of my favorites, so I couldn't wait to see the original movie that's humbly called "Flipper." It shows how Flipper earned his name and how he met his best friend named Sandy.
I liked this movie, but I don't like it as much as I like "Flipper's New Adventure." You won't see Flipper make any rescues this first time around, and he doesn't have the same 'voice' as he has in the series, but you will see the smart dolphin do plenty of tricks and show that he had a huge brain even in his first outing.
If you've ever liked the TV series or even if you haven't ever seen it, but you like dolphins or just good movies, I recommend getting "Flipper." It'd probably be especially good for kids of any age to watch, and possibly a good family movie. To make it short, it'd be a good buy.

Lego Hero Factory: Rise of the Rookies Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)i was (and still am) a huge Bionicle fan, but I have to say this is a really great film. It is a perfect introduction into this world - it's very accessible for younger kids and there's definitely enough action and awesome looking animation for older kids. The story is not incredibly complicated, so you don't have to be an expert on the 'mythology' to watch this movie - you can just put it in and go. I'm sure we'll get to learn more about the origin of the Hero Factory and other characters as time goes by and LEGO begins to tell us more backstory, but this is a ton of fun from start to finish. The animation looks fantastic and you can tell there has been a lot of effort put into this movie, it's not just one of those junky DVD movies that other toy companies put out just to sell toys. This is a first class production with a good story, really fun characters that is totally worth watching. Also, it's got a great cast, John Schneider (Bo Duke!), Henry Winkler (the Fonz!), Mark Hamill (Luke Skywalker!) and Malcolm McDowell!!!! Kudos to LEGO for keeping the quality bar so high in its productions (Bionicle, Clutch Powers and Atlantis - which is included as a bonus on the DVD!).

Welcome to the Hero Factory. A place where the most advanced and skilled Heroes in the universe are built to serve one function - saving the world from evil.Alpha team leader Stormer is the best and toughest Hero at the Hero Factory. It helps that he has Bulk and Stringer on his team, but he is driven by something deep inside of him. Years ago, when he was still just a Rookie, he was on a dangerous mission. Their leader was wounded and it was up to Stormer and his fellow Rookie, Von Ness, to save the city. But Von Ness deserted him, and Stormer was forced to go into battle alone. He succeeded that day, just like he has on every mission since then, but he still carries around the feeling that something is left unfinished.
A new Rookie team has been assigned to complete their training with Stormer and his crew. Furno looks to be the best Rookie the Factory has seen since Stormer was a Rookie himself. He takes his position as a Hero in training very seriously and yearns for Stormer's approval, and will push himself to do whatever it takes to get it. He's joined by fellow Rookies Breez and Surge, as they try to prove to Stormer and each other why they are ready to become true Heroes. As the six Heroes begin to work together on their missions, they start to realize that the bad guys they are fighting are working for someone. Someone from Stormer's past, with an evil agenda to take down the Hero Factory and Stormer himself.

Tammy And The Bachelor / Tammy Tell Me True / Tammy And The Doctor (Triple Feature) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)"Tammy and the Bachelor" is the best of the "Tammy" series, with wonderful and very entertaining performances by its stellar cast, including the energetic Debbie Reynolds, who not only entertains the viewer with her role as the backwoods Tammy Tyree, but also actually becomes her! Debbie Reynolds also had notable success with the movie's theme song, "Tammy" (better known as "Tammy's in Love)." One of the most memorable scenes to me is of Tammy performing as a Southern lady tour guide and gives a wonderful and sentimental performance that you won't forget! Also notable is Fay Wray as Pete's mother, Mrs. Brent and Mildred Natwick as the eccentric Aunt Renie, artist and cat lover extrodinaire! "Tammy and the Bachelor" is followed by three sequels, with Sandra Dee taking on the part of Tammy Tyree in "Tammy, Tell Me True" and "Tammy and the Doctor," and then Debbie Watson as Tammy Tarleton in 1967's "Tammy and the Millionaire," which is sadly missing from this set. Though all three movies included her in this set are enjoyable and entertaining in their own way, "Tammy and the Bachelor" is a true classic movie gem and should not be missed! The three "Tammy" movies collected here are a welcome addition to any classic movie dvd library and will add a nice touch of '50's innocent whimsy to your classic romantic comedy dvd collection! It's great to finally see these wonderful titles getting the dvd treatment!
"Tammy and the Bachelor" (1957)
Sentimental and sugary late `50's comedy with wonderful performances throughout, "Tammy and the Bachelor" is one of those movies that you simply cannot help but enjoy watching again and again! The plot involves a handsome, young man who has just crashed his plane in some backwoods swamp. The man is then rescued by young and pretty Tammy Tyree (Debbie Reynolds, who gives a heartfelt performance) who lives with her lay-preacher-cum-moonshiner grandfather (wonderfully performed by Walter Brennan) in a houseboat next to the riverbank. The young man introduces himself as Peter Brent (Leslie Nielsen), and is charmed by the sweet spirited Tammy. Before Peter leaves, he tells Grandpa that if he ever needs any help, to come find him. It isn't long until Grandpa is sent to jail for his moonshining, so he sends Tammy to stay with Pete. Tammy discovers that Peter Brent is not only a handsome bachelor, but is also very wealthy! Pete, as well as his entire family, get caught up in Tammy's home cooking, enthusiasm and quaint sunshiny personality which brings about changes in Pete's family and in Pete himself!
"Tammy, Tell Me True" (1961)
Following the success "Tammy and the Bachelor," Sandra Dee takes on the part of the backwoods, riverboat gal, Tammy Tyree. In search of an education to better herself, Tammy is off to college and is soon caught up in the lives of the college staff, especially young and handsome college professor, Tom Freeman (John Gavin). A fun and energetic romantic comedy that is both entertaining in it's simple story telling and the comedic situations. Tammy tries her hand at babysitting some unruly kids whose parents refrain from disciplining them. And the outcome is hilarious! I also enjoyed the wonderful scenes with Tammy becoming a paid companion to a wealthy widower, Mrs. Annie Call (Beulah Bondi, who gives a great performance) and discovers a kindred spirit in the seemingly bitter old lady. "Tammy, Tell Me True" is entertaining in its storytelling and the cast gives spirited performances. Sandra Dee's take on the "Tammy" role is inspiring and she is (as always) sweet and lovable to watch. A fun and enjoyable addition to "Tammy and the Bachelor" that you'll enjoy watching again and again!
"Tammy and the Doctor" (1963)
Sandra Dee reprises her role as the down to earth Tammy Tyree in this third installment of the "Tammy" series. Though entertaining in its overall storytelling, "Tammy and the Doctor" seems more corny than sincere in the cast performances this time out. The plot consists of Tammy becoming a candy striper at an area hospital, where she meets young and handsome Dr Mark Cheswick (Peter Fonda). The nurses have a laugh at Tammy's backwoods philosophies and once again, Tammy has to set things straight in each of their lives. An enjoyable cast includes Macdonald Carey as Dr. Wayne Bentley and Beulah Bondi reprises her role as Mrs. Annie Call. Though not up to par as it's predecessors, "Tammy and the Doctor" is enjoyable enough for an occasional night of TV viewing.
