Tanz der Vampire - Das Musical, a review by Tom
Stars: Kevin Tarte as Graf von Krolock Stefan Poslovski as Prof. Abronsius Max Niemeyer as Alfred Jessica Kessler as Sarah Jerzy Jeszke as Chagal Plot:Extras: My Thoughts: Since seeing this musical live in Stuttgart, I have become a big fan of it. I have listened to the soundtrack (both the original Vienna version and the Vienna revival) countless of times (especially the later one). This DVD is a professional recording of the Hamburg version of the musical. The only professional recording of this musical available. Sadly it was never officially released. I would buy it in a heartbeat. It was produced as a gift to the cast and crew.Rating: (From Tom's Horror Marathon 2012 on October 21st, 2012) 42: The Jackie Robinson Story, a review by addicted2dvd
Stars: Chadwick Boseman as Jackie Robinson Harrison Ford as Branch Rickey Nicole Beharie as Rachel Robinson Christopher Meloni as Leo Durocher Ryan Merriman as Dixie Walker Lucas Black as Pee Wee Reese Plot: In 1946, Branch Rickey (Harrison Ford), owner of the Brooklyn Dodgers, took a stand against Major League Baseball's infamous color line when he signed Jackie Robinson (Chadwick Boseman) to the team. The deal put both men in the crosshairs of the public, the press and even other players. Facing unabashed racism from every side, Robinson was forced to demonstrate tremendous courage and let his talent on the field win over fans and his teammates - silencing his critics and forever changing the world by changing the game of baseball.

My Thoughts: OK... this was a real disappointment. Not that it was a bad film. I enjoyed every second of what I saw of it. But about 40 minutes into the film the movie started messing up... and it got so bad you couldn't even watch it. This is a downside to getting films at a place like the library. People tend not to treat those discs with any respect. So unfortunately I can only review this film based on the little bit of it I seen. But going by those 40 minutes I feel comfortable recommending this one. I know I will be looking for it so I can see the rest of it!

The power has returned! He-Man and the Masters of the Universe 1.01 Diamond Ray of Disappearance Writer: Robby London (Writer) Director: Lou Zukor Cast: John Erwin (Prince Adam / He-Man (voice)), John Erwin (Beast Man / Ram Man (voice)), Alan Oppenheimer (Cringer / Battle Cat / Mer-Man (voice)), Alan Oppenheimer (Skeletor (voice)), Linda Gary (The Sorceress (voice)), Linda Gary (Evil-Lyn / Teela / Queen Marlena (voice)), Erik Gunden (King Randor / Orko / Trap Jaw (voice)), Erik Gunden (Tri-Klops / Stratos (voice)) It has been now about 25 years since I became a fan of He-Man. I still enjoy this series and the characters even after all this time. For me this is not a series better left as a nostalgic memory. It still holds up. And I just love the theme music. I never get tired of it. Rating: (From Tom's TV Pilots marathon on July 5th, 2011) |
