Customer Review: A Gripping and Eye Opening Riptide.
I read this novel first when I was in middle school. It was around 1984 when I found a copy of the book at a garage sale in Russellville, Ohio. I asked about it and the lady said it belonged to her son, I could have it if I would carry a could of tireless rims out of her garage for her, she was old. I read most of the first half of the book on the ride home, we lived in Springfield, Ohio and were traveling home from visiting family on the Thanksgiving holiday. The novel gripped me and opened my young eyes to the true face of war. Public school education is such a sanitary way to learn of the real historiues of men… I later heard Huggett speak, fascinating… I recommend this, I still have that first copy, thumbworn and held together with duct tape, though I do have a newr copy that I read every couple of years… It, coupled with ten years of service in the U.S. Army remind me that sometimes we have to take responsibility and it isn’t always pretty. I highly recommend this to anyone who likes to read hnovels that fell honest.
Customer Review: Bill Huggett; Giant of a Marine
William Kelly Turner Huggett, 65, died in Miami, Florida, August 31, 2004. He was graduated from Emory University with a double major in history and political science, joined the Marines because he wanted to serve his country, and was awarded the bronze star for heroism in Vietnam as a 2nd Lt. His book “Body Count”, published by Putnam in 1974, was based on his personal experiences in the Marines and in Vietnam, and was written while he was in law school at the University of Florida. I first met “Bill”, or “Huggett” as he was called by friends, during a small dinner at a friends home in 1977. When he found out that I had served three tours in “Nam”, he went out to his car, and came back in with a copy of “Body Count” which he autographed for me. I still have the book. He was married with two children, and practiced Admirality and Maritime law in Miami. Huggett was among the most energetic and magnetic personalities I ever had the pleasure to know. Semper Fi.

Prizzi’s Honor [1985]
Customer Review: Bullets are hitting the wrong targets and missing the right ones
When the mafia becomes the argument of an action film and little more it is no longer funny, it is no longer strange, it is no longer fascinating. It is nothing but outlandish and terroristic. It takes all Jack Nicholson can give to make these characters in anyway palatable, and even so. In the Prizzi family all other considerations than the family is outlawed, except maybe for a couple of weeks and the woman concerned by this out-breeding passing passion has to submit and take the color of the wall on which she is being pinned. If she does not then she will be executed and cut off. There is no depth in that film, no subtleties or even subtlety. Get the message, bang it down on the table and then cram it down your brain. Business is business and in-breeding is the rule. I will always wonder why a hit-woman with a reputation of efficiency and effectiveness misses her husband when he intends to kill her though she manages to shoot one bullet first. Suspend your disbelief and incredulity. The cinema is the new church of the visual dominant animal man is. To see is to believe. But at times to believe is easier when you are blind, and probably deaf too. Apart from that it is interesting even if we do spend a little bit too much time in planes going east and planes going west, kind of an airlift between New York, or whatever may titillate you, and Los Angeles, or whatever it takes to please you.

Customer Review: First class comedy of bumbling hitmen at work and play.
Gangsters and hitmen make irresistible viewing. Bungling assassins are an even bigger hit. Add to that recipe the class acts of a wry and wily Jack Nicholson, Kathleen Turner and Angelica Huston and Prizzi’s Honor is a must-see. This 1985 movie stands apart in the genre of death-with-a-giggle and criminals with a conscience, and ranks for murder and mirth with Luc Besson’s “Leon” or Joe Pesci’s more recent “Eight Heads in a Duffel Bag”. This is another classic Nicholson comedy. Put this video on the shelf with “As Good As It Gets” and watch them and laugh over and over. There’s always something fresh or unnoticed in the twists and turns of the plot, the background shots or the dialogue every time you run it. Fine performances, intriguing story and very, very funny.

Killer Net [1998]
Customer Review: killer net is addictive !!!!
Great acting. The film is 3 hours long but it really will not feel like it. It is brilliant. You really feel for the characters. This is full of suspense and twist. The film follows all the characters and pieces things together perfectly. It makes you look at internet games in a different way. The question is will they actually make this game ? I hope so in a way (just for fun obviously). It is a film that i found myself asking… If only !!! you will see what i mean when you watch it. This will not dissapoint.

Customer Review: Interesting mid-nineties retrospective
I remember seeing this when it was first screened and it was great to watch it again 10 years on. It centres around a bunch of flat-sharing students in mid-nineties Brighton who, amongst the usual things, like to spend their spare time messing about with the internet. They discover from a dubious source an internet game called Killer Net, which although coming from the US features a conveniently local setting and real-life characters. As the plot progesses the game proceeds to become even more disturbingly lifelike as a real murder is commited exactly as featured in the game. The plot is a little disjointed, but its still an interesting retrospective on mid-nineties Brighton and student life, with scenes featuring rave clubs which were at their peak at the time, the fashions of the day, and obviously the early days of the internet. Broadband and camcorders were then still a twinkle in Microsofts eye, and in order to communicate with someone live online you really did need to do some major surgery to your hard drive. Oh and you could also quickly run up a £1000 telephone bill too. The cast features Paul Bettany, and Emily Woof, plus a young Zoe Lucker who later appeared in footballers wives!

Deuce Bigalow Male Gigolo [2000]
The title character of Deuce Bigalow: Male Gigolo, played by Saturday Night Live alumnus and Adam Sandler sidekick Rob Schneider, is a miserable fish-tank cleaner who stumbles onto a new and different lifestyle when he looks after the fish of a high-priced male prostitute (Oded Fehr from The Mummy). Deuce teams up with a man-pimp (Eddie Griffin), gets harassed by a crazed cop (William Forsythe), and of course falls in love with a cute client (Arija Bareikis). The nonsensical plot is festooned with gags about wet T-shirts, foul-mouthed senior citizens, flatulence, Tourette’s syndrome, narcolepsy, and just about everything else you might imagine. More surprising is that, by and large, the movie works. It’s a combination of bad taste and goodheartedness, similar to There’s Something About Mary, which Deuce Bigalow is clearly emulating. It’s not the pat “people should learn to accept themselves for who they are” theme or the formulaic happy ending; it’s that the movie understands that sex is not the same thing as happiness or contentment. For all its crassness, Deuce Bigalow actually treats its characters as people, and the result is silly, obnoxious, and enjoyable. –Bret Fetzer, Amazon.com

Customer Review: funny guy
I like this kind of silly film and thought Weekend At Bernies was hiliarious - so now you know my level you can read on. This will not be everyone’s cup of tea obviously but as a farce it is good. You know what’s going to happen to the enormous fish tank, but it’s HOW it happens that’s the key.

I have watched this film twice and I have to say, for all I said above, it does not stand up to repeat veiwing unlike such films as Something About Mary for instance. Hence only 3 stars.

Customer Review: Not Bigalow On Laughs
This is really terrible; a comedy that seems to miss all the targets; with its dull actors and weak script;juding by this film heaven knows how Schneider is able to get acting work.

Body Heat [1981]
While scoring high-profile credits as a screenwriter (including The Empire Strikes Back, Return of the Jedi and Raiders of the Lost Ark), Lawrence Kasdan made his directorial debut with this steamy, contemporary film noir in the tradition of Double Indemnity and other classics from the 1940s. In one of his most memorable roles, William Hurt plays a Florida lawyer unwittingly drawn into a web of deceit spun by Kathleen Turner (in her screen debut) as a married socialite who plots to kill off her husband with Hurt’s assistance. Kasdan’s dialogue is a hoot (sometimes it borders on satire) and the sultry atmosphere is a perfect complement to the perspiration-soaked chemistry between Hurt and Turner, whose love scenes caused quite a stir when the film was released in 1981. John Barry’s score sets the provocative mood and both Ted Danson and Mickey Rourke are splendid in memorable supporting roles. –Jeff Shannon

Customer Review: SUPERLATIVE FILM NOIR…
This film is simply top notch. With deft direction by Lawrence Kasdan, a stellar cast, and a clever, well thought out script written by the director himself, this is a moody, atmospheric film, reminiscent of those potboilers of the nineteen forties. Highly stylized, the film tautly maintains its tension and suspense.

The plot is simple, yet ingenious. In steamy, hot and sultry coastal Florida, a beautiful blonde, unhappily married socialite, Matty Walker (Kathleen Turner), a veritable man trap with her smoky voice and Venus de Milo curves, meets a womanizing chump, Ned Racine (William Hurt), a small town, not too successful lawyer. He can’t believe his luck when he hooks up with the wealthy Matty, as most of the women with whom he consorts work as waitresses, nurses, or in other service occupations. Better yet, the sexy, alluring Matty seems to want him as much as he wants her, and a torrid affair ensues.

Matty is married to a rapacious business man, Edmund Walker (Richard Crenna), whom Matty wants to have permanently removed. He is definitely a man with whom to reckon and the type of guy that takes no prisoners. He is, quite simply, a ruthless businessman, and the type of guy one loves to hate. He is also rich, very rich. Matty claims that she cannot divorce him without losing her wealthy life style, due to a draconian pre-nuptial agreement. Matty, in between huge dollops of steamy sex, does not hesitate to tell Ned how much she loves and wants him and that, were her husband were to die, all that money would be theirs. Beneath her love goddess exterior, however, lies a mind like a steel trap.

As Matty slowly spins her web and ensnares Ned, like a mouse in a trap, he falls into lock step with Matty’s homicidal plans. What he does not initially realize is the extent of Matty’s perfidy and deceit, until it is too late. As the realization of what actually has happened begins slowly to dawn upon Ned, it is a thing of on screen beauty and an absolutely brilliant contrivance with which to push the film further along to its ultimate resolution. What initially appears to be just a film about sexual obsession turns out to be something quite different, with enough plot twists to keep the viewer riveted to the screen.

It is hard to believe that this was Ms. Turner’s screen debut, so powerful a performance does she turn in. She is absolutely mesmerizing as the sexy siren with an agenda all her own. Just as she reels in Ned Racine, she reels in the viewer, as well, hook, line, and sinker. William Hurt is also terrific as the bottom of the barrel attorney who realizes too late that all is not what it seems. He approaches the role with the right amount of naivete, not letting the sleaze factor overwhelm the character. In the final analysis, there is a measure of sympathy for him, such as that for a little boy who is found with his hand caught inside the cookie jar, no easy feat given the nature of the character’s actions.

A goofy looking Ted Danson is excellent in the small role of Peter Lowenstein, the State’s attorney and Ned’s friend, who suspects that Ned may be involved in the death of Edmund Walker. He, too, plays a game of cat and mouse with him. J. A. Preston is wonderful as Ned’s friend and the detective investigator who follows the homicide investigation no matter where it leads. Mickey Rourke is very good as Ned’s client and small time criminal, as well as a man who seems to have more sense than his lawyer.

This is a superlative film that is well worth having in one’s collection. Bravo!

Customer Review: A sexy film noir, great score, superb plot twist
One of my favourite films (others are The Usual Suspects, Apocalypse Now, The Sixth Sense, Diner and Diva).

This film sustains repeated viewing because of the atmosphere generated by the director, which conjures up the heady, sweaty Florida heatwave; the greed, lust and deviousness of it’s two main protagonists, and the wonderful score by John Barry.

The script is superb, the performance of William Hurt, Kathleen Turner and Mickey Rourke (it was Turner’s and Rourke’s debut) are exceptional, and the plot is just a dream come true.

If you like films that will entertain you, and then leave you feeling dumb at the end because of a plot twist, then this is for you.

See it, and drink in it’s atmosphere, and I hope (like The Sixth Sense) that the first thing you want to do after watching it, is watch it again.

The Jewel Of The Nile [1986]
Customer Review: Good Sequel, but Not a Contender
“Jewel of the Nile” is the sequel to “Romancing the Stone” and reunites Michael Douglas, Kathleen Turner, and Danny DeVito in another adventure involving treasure, mystery, and danger in a foreign land.

It feels very much like a sequel, as in, “This all worked the first time, so let’s do it again.” The result is a somewhat formulaic and predictable film, with less magic. Without it’s predecessor, viewers would be confused about what was going on with the characters. But, without it’s predecessor, it would have stood out more. Or, it might have flopped. A definite case of sequelitis, but a much milder case than the awful “Jurassic Park: The Lost World” which completely went awry, in my opinion.

All that said, “Jewel of the Nile” is still an above-average, fast-paced action/adventure film with enough of a plot and enough good acting to make it worth watching. It has an exotic setting, a good, if not memorable, musical score, and plenty of action. “Romancing the Stone” is a keeper; this one is a good rental (or to buy a used one cheap.

Customer Review: A classic comedy
A good adventure movie, who is now a classic. If you like the Indiana Jones style, you are going to be entertained by this movie. The best act is thoug by Danny DeVito. Not for my collection, but I was entertained!

Belly [1999]
Customer Review: Watchable…I guess
OK, if you’re intereseted in New York rap. Nas, DMX and a insane appearance by Method Man as an off-his head Ghetto assasin. Don’t expect great cinema though. Dircted by the same Hype Williams who did those cheesy shiny-suit videos in the mid-nineties, the film itself is a bit of a mess, with nothing to say that Boyz’n'the Hood didn’t say almost a decade earlier. While that film meant something, Belly is nothing but a slice of gun porn, played out to a Hip Hop soundtrack…I think Hype Williams needs to stick to his music videos.

Customer Review: Belly
A true HipHop cult classic with a Scarface flavour, up there with Friday and Menace II society.
