Alice In Wonderland (Special Edition)
Best Selling > DVD > New and Future Releases
starring: Kathryn Beaumont, Ed Wynn, Richard Haydn, Jerry Colonna, Verna Felton
directed by: Clyde Geronimi, Wilfred Jackson, Hamilton Luske

It is almost unbelievable, but a cursory reading of some of the reviews would suggest that some Amazon customers have not read, or even heard of, the Lewis Carroll classics "Alice Through The Looking Glass" and "Alice In Wonderland."

This film is one of the most mature and thoughtful of all Disney films, and manages to capture some of the dreamy, frightening, enchanting and nightmarish atmosphere of the books. Alice is a children's story in name only: it is best described as a semi-benign nightmare ... Read More:

directed by: Eric Goldberg, Mike Gabriel

This film is a lovely tale of true love, easy to watch, not in the slightest scary (as some disneys can be!) and just a nice all round family film. Great songs and story line.
I would recommend this Disney to all.

I watched The Incredibles with my 4 year old son this afternoon. This was the second attmept at watching it after we had to switch it off some months before because the film became too intense for him. He wanted to watch it again ("All the way through this time!") and so we settled down, turned down the lights and amped up the 5.1 surround sound.
The first ten minutes had me laughing at Mr Incredible's attempts to do his duty as a superhero whilst aiming to attend what is obviously a very important function on time.

The Princess Diaries 1 and 2 (Box Set)
Best Selling > DVD > New and Future Releases
starring: Julie Andrews, Anne Hathaway, Heather Matarazzo, John Rhys-Davies
directed by: Garry Marshall

October 03, 2005
Although clearly about the same characters, these films are quite different in a number of ways. The first has all the elements of a teen film: there's Mia's choice between everything she's ever known and her duty as a princess, the best friend who's alienated as Mia's character picks 'the other crowd', some posh frocks, a love interest that may or may not work, and lots of dashing about at the end, where we receive the final twist in the plot. Anne Hathaway and Julie Andrews give excellent performances and most ... Read More:

Miracle [2004]
Best Selling > DVD > New and Future Releases
starring: Kurt Russell, Patricia Clarkson, Noah Emmerich
directed by: Gavin O'Connor

February 28, 2005
I remember watching the United States' defeat of the vaunted Russian Olympic hockey team at the 1980 Winter Olympics in Lake Placid, New York. The Russians were undefeated since 1961. And 1960 was the last year we won the "Gold". The title of the movie is an apt description of the USA upset at Lake Placid in 1980.

This movie shows what it took to mold individuals into a well-coordinated team in just seven months of very hard work. Up until 1980, no team was ever willing to train as hard as was required to defeat the Russian team. Not only ... Read More:

The Princess Diaries 2 - Royal Engagement [2004]
Best Selling > DVD > New and Future Releases
starring: Julie Andrews, Anne Hathaway, Heather Matarazzo, John Rhys-Davies
directed by: Garry Marshall

February 21, 2005
I watched this movie because I'm a huge Julie Andrews fan, the Princess Diaries books are a favourite guilty pleasure of mine (though I do think the joke has grown somewhat stale over the course of ten books) and although the first film wasn't brilliant, it was affable enough. This film, however, is a complete and utter waste of space. I can't believe it was actually a feature film that people paid money to see, the whole thing screams made-for-TV. Frankly, whoever wrote the script deserves to be shot, or at least banned from ever writing for the screen again. ... Read More:

Dumbo
Best Selling > DVD > New and Future Releases
starring: Verna Felton, Herman Bing, Stirling Holloway, Edward Brophy, Billy Bletcher
directed by: Ben Sharpsteen

April 11, 2005
Dumbo is one of those films that works for all ages- the kids will gleefully follow along with the comic-tragic story of Dumbo and his friend Timothy Mouse; teens and young adults will want to watch it for the strange, surreal animation (and the humor, which is actually at times not quite meant for kids- i.e. the scenes with the crows); adults won't be bored by it in the least when they watch with their children. I would even equate the entertainment value of Dumbo with one of the more recent Pixar films- it's funny, but there are serious elements (in this case ... Read More:

VERY disappointed in the 3-disc description of this. I received only the 3rd disc on the 2 attempts Amazon made to send this. The packaging didn't even look as though there was supposed to be more than one disc.
