Stars: Riisa Naka as (voice) Takuya Ishida as (voice) Mitsutaka Itakura as (voice) Ayami Kakiuchi as (voice) Mitsuki Tanimura as (voice) Plot: "TIME WAITS FOR NO ONE" Student girl Konno Makoto has a very bad day. Everything goes wrong and to top it all off in the afternoon she dies in a lethal accident… only she doesn't. In fact, she finds herself transported a few seconds back in time and manages to avert her deadly fate. As Konno slowly discovers, she has acquired the power to jump back in time and change things at will! Soon, she starts the whole day over, but this time without errors, only to discover that sometimes her winnings are someone else's losses. Before she knows it she's busy cleaning mess after mess. And when things go from bad to terrible she suddenly finds out there is a limit to her time-jumping, possibly leading several loved ones straight into great danger. Extras:
My Thoughts: What can I say about this movie? I simply love it! It became my favorite movie of last year. Even though I saw it 3 times during the last 6 months I had to include it in this marathon. I like it how in the beginnings the time jumps are simply played for fun but it gets more serious as the movie goes on. Sadly there is no RC1 release yet, but it is said to be coming this year. I recommend to watch out for it! Also there is a Korean 3-disc release with English subtitles available (the German release has only German and Polish subtitles).Rating: (From Tom's Time-Travel Movie Reviews on January 6th, 2008) The Giant Gila Monster, a review by addicted2dvdThe Giant Gila Monster (1959) A small town in Texas finds itself under attack from a hungry, fifty-foot-long gila monster. No longer content to forage in the desert, the giant lizard begins chomping on motorists and train passengers before descending upon the town itself. Only Chase Winstead, a quick-thinking mechanic, can save the town from being wiped out. My Thoughts: hmmmm... what do I say about this movie?... Well it is entertaining... just your basic 1950's monster flick. Definitely a no brainer... just a sit back and relax pop-corn... drive in movie type of entertainment. And once again.... the quality wasn't all that bad considering everything. For a free set I am (so far) not too disappointed when it comes to the quality... at least not on my cheap 20in TV I have.

Plot: Standup comedian Ray Romano stars as Ray Barone, a successful sportswriter and devoted husband to Debra (Patricia Heaton, Beethoven) who must deal with his brother and parents, who happen to live across the street. Frank (Peter Boyle, While You Were Sleeping) and Marie(Doris Roberts, Remington Steele) love to meddle in his life, while older brother Robert (Brad Garrett, Suicide Kings) sometimes resents his success. Nevertheless, Ray manages to keep a bight outlook and a sense of humor as he balances his family and work lives. Everybody Loves Raymond 1.01 Pilot Writer: Philip Rosenthal (Writer) Director: Michael Lembeck Cast: Ray Romano (Ray), Patricia Heaton (Debra), Brad Garrett (Robert), Madylin Sweeten (Ally), Doris Roberts (Marie), Peter Boyle (Frank), Stephen Lee (Leo), Amber Ferreira (Matthew & Gregory), Drew Ferreira (Matthew & Gregory), Justin Ferreira (Matthew & Gregory) This is a series, where I usually enjoy an episode when I watch it, but I never rush out to watch them. I still have the last three seasons in my unwatched pile. Rating: (From Tom's TV Pilots marathon on April 10th, 2011) |
