Hard Eight, a review by snowcatReview Hard Eight features the typical accidental love story that feature so predominantly in Paul Thomas Andersons films, although unlike his later films it does not feature a large ensemble cast. (From Emma's New Film Reviews! on June 22nd, 2010) Leap of Faith, a review by TomTitle: Leap of Faith Year: 1992 Director: Richard Pearce Rating: PG Length: 104 Min. Video: Anamorphic Widescreen 1.78 Audio: Czech: Dolby Digital Surround, German: Dolby Digital Surround, English: Dolby Digital 5.1, Spanish: Dolby Digital Surround, French: Dolby Digital Surround, Italian: Dolby Digital Surround, Hungarian: Dolby Digital Mono Subtitles: Arabic, Bulgarian, Croatian, Czech, Danish, Dutch, English, Finnish, French, German, Greek, Hebrew, Hungarian, Icelandic, Italian, Norwegian, Other, Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, Slovenian, Spanish, Swedish, Turkish Stars: Steve Martin Debra Winger Lolita Davidovich Liam Neeson Lukas Haas Plot: In a tour-de-force performance, Steve Martin plays Reverend Jonas Nightengale, a slick-as-oil flimflam man who'll trade salvation for a donation to his touring ministry. Jonas knows how to work a crowd and a con, but his works of wonder are done with mirrors and smoke. When his tour bus breaks down, Jonas pitches his tents in impoverished Rustwater, Kansas. While his alluring manager (Debra Winger) tries to persuade the local sheriff (Liam Neeson) not to close the show, Jonas sets his sights on a beautiful skeptic named Marva (Lolita Davidovich). But making a believer out of Marva is going to take a real miracle. With its heartwarming spirit and rousing soundtrack, Leap Of Faith is a movie that will make you stand up and cheer. Extras: Scene Access My Thoughts: A fun movie. Not necessarily a must-see, but I enjoyed Steve Martin's performance in this one. It's worth to look into it when you come across it on TV.Rating: (From Tom's Random Reviews on May 16th, 2009) Pete's Pilots, a review by addicted2dvdLand of the Lost Marshall, Will and Holly on a routine expedition met the greatest earthquake ever known. High on the rapids it struck their raft and plunged them down a thousand feet below to the Land of the Lost. Take a journey back in time with the Marshall family through this incredible world of breathtaking wonder, pulse-pounding danger and mind-boggling special effects. Only in the Land of the Lost will you battle dinosaurs one day and encounter beings from other dimensions the next. The Pylons, the Pakuni, evil energy storms...they are all part of the awesome adventures created by legendary Sid and Marty Krofft. Relive all your favorite Saturday morning thrills as you rediscover all 43 action-packed original episodes in the Land of the Lost Complete Series. Cha-Ka The Marshalls make a new friend, Cha-Ka the Paku, and a new enemy... a hungry T-Rex. My Thoughts: I used to watch this series every Saturday morning when I was a kid. It was one of my favorites at the time. So this show brought back some memories for me. When I first got this set I watched a few episodes with Brittany... and she liked it too so I know that this show can still appeal to kids. But I am sure it offers nothing for adults. Not unless of course you watched the show as a kid and want to watch it for nostalgic reasons. And for that reason I still find this series to be a fun distraction from real life. This is one of those shows where the starting theme serves tells you the story on how they got there. In the first episode they are already in The Land of the Lost and they meet their new friend Cha-ka. Not to mention figure out how to fend off a T-Rex. I am probably enjoying this more then I should... but hey... this is my childhood we are talking about here. It is a reminder of simpler and better times.
