Brilliant ensemble cast
Entertaining story lines that are enjoyable through multiple viewings
The cons:
Lack of special features (Ocean's 12 disk special feature consists of...drumroll please...the TRAILER alone)
No real justification to buy box set unless you are just really really excited about owning, well, the box

The Perfect Storm (2000) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Coming from a fishing town in Alaska, this film hits especially close to home. Although the Bristol bay crabbing fleet has lots worse weather and loses lots more lives and boats than we do, we still have our share of boats that sink in bad storms. Some people complain that The Perfect Storm doesn't have a happy ending, well "welcome to the real world". It wouldn't have been realistic at all if any of the crewmen would have survived. There has also been some complaints about the weak roles that the actors play. I know alot of fishermen and deckhands, I have done some long-lining myself, and those men and women acted perfectly normal; no great, awesome speechs; you never see a bunch of fisherman get super emotional and powerful; but often there is alot of passion shown for fishing since it is not only a job, but a way of life. All in all, the movie was very realistic and powerful. Last of all, hats off to the coast-guard men and women who risk their lives daily to save others. It is very much appreciated among all fisherman and sea-farers; especially those who have been rescued by them. It's a great film that hits close to home. I highly recommend it

It's Halloween, 1991. Near Gloucester, Massachusetts, the six members of the Andrea Gail, a swordfishing boat, head out to sea for their last trip of the season. Unbeknownst to them, a shockingly brutal storm is slowly gaining steam. Before the National Weather Bureau has a chance to inform the crew of the impending danger, it's too late. The resulting battle with three merging weather fronts--an unheralded natural disaster--is grueling and tragic.

The Encounter (2010) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This movie does not beat around the bush: in very short order, the viewer is introduced to a present-day Jesus. He is The Way, The Truth, and The LIfe----and this movie clearly depicts Him as such in a non-threatening and modern venue. Bruce Marchiano is perfect in the role as Christ (as he was in "Matthew") because he clearly understands the reality of redemption through faith in Jesus. His unwavering belief and discipleship shine through in this most recent vehicle. This is a movie for everyone, including children. Never too early to fall in love with Jesus!!------Nancy
