• Bonus Trailers

This is a DVD that my brother got off Netflix. I have seen the commercial for it... and was a bit curios about checking out the movie. Some reason I didn't realize from the commercial that Nicole Kidman is in this movie. But I she was only in the scenes where they are in Hawaii... so she may not have even been in the trailer. I really don't remember. This turned out to be a right good romantic comedy... I definitely enjoyed it. Even though I seen the ending coming a mile a way. But watching them get to that point was entertaining. Definitely worth checking out... I can see myself adding this one to my collection at some point.

Bear Island, a review by GSyren

Bear Island (5-035822-012233)

Canada 1979 | Released 2013-03-11 on DVD from Sony Pictures Home Entertainment

113 minutes | Aspect ratio Anamorphic 2.35:1 | Audio: English Dolby Digital Mono

Directed by Don Sharp and starring Donald Sutherland, Vanessa Redgrave, Richard Widmark, Christopher Lee, Barbara Parkins

My thoughts about Bear Island:

At some point in my youth I must have read Bear Island, but I have absolutely no memory of it. I know that the movie is "loosely based on" the book. Can MacLean's writing be improved on? Certainly. Does this script do that? I doubt it, MacLean's book can't have been that bad! With so many good actors, this should be a great movie. But alas, no. Sir Christopher Lee is pretty much wasted in his role. The same can be said for Richard Widmark, who I really liked in his earlier roles. Perhaps the script and the direction are to be blamed. The script certainly left many unanswered questions, like - What were those weather researchers actually supposed to be doing on Bear Island? We never saw any researching. - Why would NATO insist on radio silence from a research party? - If there was a NATO installation on the island, why was the research station so far from it? and also why does Bear Island in the movie look nothing

I rate this title

Angel Marathon, a review by addicted2dvd

4. Slouching Toward Bethlehem
Original Air Date: 10/27/2002
After months of existing on a higher plane, Cordelia inexplicably appears back at the hotel - with no idea why or even how she arrived there. Sadly, a serious case of amnesia prevents Cordy from remembering either her friends or her past. Believing the full truth may scare her off, the gang attempts to hide the freaky facts about their lives. Unfortunately, that secrecy leads to mistrust on Cordy's part when the reality of their situation is revealed. Things get even more complicated when Lorne reads her mind and sees a terrifying vision of the future. Meanwhile, outcast Connor struggles to find his place in the world.

Guest Stars:
Stephanie Romanov
Nynno Ahli
Thomas Crawford

My Thoughts:
A really interesting episode that brings the main season long storyline further. I never cared much for the whole Cordelia with amnesia storyline... though I do know it is needed to get to the Jasmine storyline. But over-all I think it is interesting but could be better.

My Rating:
