Customer Review: Good for getting to know Turner
This is a well put-together and written book on Turner’s early work. The color reproductions are good. However, as is the case with with reproductions of Turner’s pencil works I’ve see, pencil sketches are frequently too light and consequently hard to see, especially in any detail. (This was the case with displays at a recent museum exhibit too.) What’s particularly good in this volume are the insightful comments. It is evident the the commentator knows art and art-making well enough to provide interesting and useful (to an artist) information about Turner’s habits and methods, etc. Recommended to those who want to look into art history and Turner the artist.

Stirling Bridge and Falkirk 1297-98: William Wallace’s Rebellion (Osprey Campaign)
Customer Review: Solid history, attractively presented
The Osprey Campaign account of the two major battles of William Wallace's rebellion has a solid, authoritative feel to it. Pete Armstrong's text is not particularly elegant and would have benefited from stricter editing, but he more than makes up for this with a thorough knowledge of his subject and an infectious enthusiasm for it.

It makes sense to combine these two battles in one volume because, together with a description of the background and linking events, they constitute an account of Wallace's entire campaign. Little is known about the man himself, so justice can be done to him in a relatively short book like this.

The maps, 2D and 3D, are informative and attractive. The illustrations of battle scenes are excellent, giving a real sense of how things must have looked, minus the mud and blood and guts, of course. The various sketches of seals and coats of arms will be rather too much for most general readers, but those depicting arms and armour should be of interest to everyone.

The Wallace episode is an important and absorbing one in the ancient conflict between English and Scot, rivals as only neighbours can be. It has accreted plenty of mythic elements also, which books like this may help to dispel.

Leprechaun [1993]
Customer Review: AN ORIGINAL SORY AND GOOD GORE BUT NOT MUCH ELSE
Ten years ago, an evil leprechaun (Warwick Davis) lives, protecting his ill-gotten cold collection. Today, Dan O’Grady, (Shay Duffin) after finding what he believes are magical gold coins, steals the gold and returns back home, followed by the leprechaun. Ten years later, Tory Redding (Jennifer Aniston (Yes, it’s the same one)) and her father JD (John Sanderford) move into the same house, which Tory isn’t extremely fond of. Due to heckling from neighbor Nathan, (Ken Olandt) Tory agrees to stay. When friend Ozzie (Mark Holton) finds the leprechaun in the basement, no one believes him. When he finds the sack of stolen gold coins, he tells his little brother Alex (Robert Gorman) and they take it to get it evaluated. The leprechaun tracks it down, killing the shop owner. As the residents around the town start to be killed off, Tory and her friends start to realize that the killer is a leprechaun. Understanding the significance of the gold coins, they use them in a plan to rid themselves of the malevolent creature.

The Good News: First of all, I want to get this out. This is the probably the goriest entry in the series. We have some really bloody kills such as a few really good looking face scratching, some convincing burn marks a face ripped off, a car burner to the nose, and an ear bitten off. The killings did look a little bit more creative than normal, and the effectiveness of them is a real testament to the movie. Another great thing about the killings is that the Leprechaun harmed before he killed. The great special FX is the best part here. This includes the only scare in the film: the recreation of the leprechaun. When Ozzie finds the crate with the Leprechaun in the basement, he leans in closer to hear what the crate is making and the hand shoots forth. The crate is then splintered into pieces as a terrified Ozzie is sent cowering away in fear, with the unbelievable story to tell. The Leprechaun’s make-up in this one is perhaps the most frightening of the series. It’s probably due to the fact that the film is a straight horror film, rather than the sequels’ more hilarious tone. Because of the cracks in the face and the different dimensions it has, with the lighting in the film, creates a really unnerving sight when first viewed. You can tell this was intended to be a great slasher film, as it does follow the slasher rules: the indestructible killer, the false death, the desolate location, the killer chasing the victim and catching them by walking, and the setting up of the sequel. All these things aside, the best reason to watch one is to see Jennifer Aniston in a pair of short-shorts for ninety minutes, as she never changes clothes.

The Bad News: The sequels are what made the series. They were all downright hilarious, which this one really isn’t. This one feels intended to be a straightforward horror story, and there are no real big laughs in this one. There are a few funny scenes that definitely show where the series is going, such as a pretty funny scene where Ozzie is drenched in paint after an accident, but the fans who love the series for it’s wacky gags and smart one-liners will be lost here. Also readily apparent is Warwick Davis’ almost disinterest in playing the leprechaun. I didn’t see the glee that he had in the sequels in his performance in this one. You can almost tell that he didn’t think this was going to be big and never really put his all in. Another big problem is that the film really doesn’t have a lot of suspense or shock scenes. Even the few scenes that follow those conventions are total letdowns. When Nathan goes outside to check on a noise, he wanders around the building for a while before he steps into a clearly visible bear-trap the Leprechaun has set. It’s all too easy to see. You would think that wandering around a big dark house after dark would be a slam-dunk scare, but it’s wasted.

The Final Verdict: It has a lot of people that are against it, and a lot of people who love this film. It is very hard to determine who will enjoy this movie, so give a rental or check it out on TV. Either way, it won’t hurt you too much.

Customer Review: Where’s me gold!
This Leprechaun is a great one for fans who grew up in the betamax video era and like their horror films cheesy and silly and fun. The ingredients for these films are simple: bad acting, rubbery effects, cheap lighting, awful dialogue, but all mixed together with a sense of humour and a willingness to never take anything too seriously.

The story is simple enough: someone has stolen the Leprechaun’s pot of gold and he’s on a murderous quest to get it back. In this case, he takes out his frustrations on a group of thinly written characters who are staying at the house where he has been imprisoned.

The most important element in a film like this is a great villain, and you get that here in the form of the tiny, crazy, gold-obsessed Leprechaun. Warwick Davis, playing the title character, is obviously having a grand old time in this role, and he injects a charm and lunacy into proceedings that elevates this above other low-budget horrors. Think of him as a kind of mini Freddy Krueger, but with a more sympathetic motivation - he just wants his gold back!

The rest of the cast are as anonymous as you would expect from a small scale horror, with the exception of Jennifer Aniston, who makes a pre-Friends appearance here in what was probably her biggest role to date. She does okay with the material she’s given (the Leprechaun gets all the best lines) and she looks pretty and vulnerable in the best horror tradition.

I can’t imagine this Leprechaun will be to everyone’s taste - it is pretty stupid, after all - but it was a pleasant surprise to me. If you’ve ever enjoyed the likes of Ghoulies, C.H.U.D. or Return Of The Living Dead, you won’t be disappointed by this one. If nothing else, this may be the only chance you have to see a death by pogo stick.

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 Accidental Tourist [1988]
Customer Review: Wonderfully acted
This is a wonderfully touching portait of a man, Hurt, who cannot grieve for his dead son and eventually ends up losing his marriage as well.

He writes travel books for people who hate travelling. For a while, after an accident, he goes back to the family home where his two dysfunctional brothers and sisters live cut off from the outside world.

Then he meets a dog trainer, Geena Davis who is both wonderfully whacky and vulnerable and a rocky romance begins. As this is a Kasdan film nothing is ever straight forward, like real life really.

Superbly acted by Hurt, Davis and Turner.

The stainless steel blade of the scimitar measures 36 inches in length and is accented with a deep blood groove, and painted with a faux antiqued blade finish. Intricate symbolized blade collar matches nicely with the tidal-wave themed hand guard, both the blade collar and the guard carry an antiqued brass finish. Brass accents also blend nicely in the handle design which is complimented by a thin leather cord wrapped handle. Measures 39 inches when closed, 36 inches in overall length with a 27.5 inch blade length; 16/64 blade thickness with a mild blade sharpness.

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.

Pirates are in, and every year the costumes and props get better and more accurate. Themed closely to a tai chi style sword but with much more flashy scabbard accent design. The thin double edged blade is covered with a thick dark antique finish and carries a mild edge sharpness. Housing the blade is a finely crafted hard scabbard covered in soft leather, accented with antiqued brass rings and scabbard tip. The guard and pommel carry no markings and have plain brass finishes contrasting the dark thin leather wrapped cord handle. Not intended for combat purposes, having only a 14/64 blade thickness. Measuring 39.5 inches closed, 36.5 inches overall with a 28.5 inch blade length.

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.

Looking for a pirate sword, look no further. Ordering was hassle free and I got it within five days of ordering it.

All in all for the price it can’t be beat. My son loved it!

Carousel [1956] (REGION 1) (NTSC)
The 1956 screen adaptation of Carousel, like its immediate predecessor Oklahoma!, boasted then state-of-the-art widescreen cinematography, stereophonic sound, a starring romantic duo with on-screen chemistry, and the Rodgers & Hammerstein imprimatur. Adding to its promise was a source (the venerable Ferenc Molnar play Liliom) that had already been filmed three times. Contributing to the lustre are the coastal Maine locations where 20th Century Fox filmed principal photography. Yet unlike the original Broadway production, and despite evident craft, Carousel proved a box-office disappointment. Why? Hindsight argues that movie-goers of the 1950s may have been unprepared for its tragic narrative, the sometimes unsympathetic protagonist, and a spiritual subtext addressing life after death.

Whatever the obstacle, Carousel may well be a revelation to first-time viewers. The score is among the composers’ most affecting, from the glorious instrumental “Carousel Waltz” to a succession of exquisite love songs (”If I Loved You”), a heart-rending secular hymn (”You’ll Never Walk Alone”), and the expectant father’s poignant reverie, “Soliloquy”. Top-line stars Shirley Jones (as factory worker Julie Jordan) and Gordon MacRae (as Billy Bigelow, the carnival barker who woos and weds her) achieve greater dramatic urgency here than in the more successful Oklahoma!. MacRae in particular attains a personal best as the conflicted Billy, whose anxiety and wounded pride after losing his job are crucial to the plot. It’s Billy’s impatience to support his new family that drives him to an ill-fated decision, which transforms the fable into a ghost story. –Sam Sutherland, Amazon.com

Customer Review: Well worth going to the Carousel
Regarded by many as the best Rodgers and Hammerstein musical, it still manages to pack a punch after all these years. Most people will probably already be familiar with the hymn-like standard ‘You’ll Never Walk Alone’, but there are plenty of other gems here that are worth tuning in for. Fans of Frank Sinatra may recognise Billy’s ‘Soliloquy’. The scene on the beach where Gordon McRae belts it out is now a movie musicals’ classic. My personal favourite is the beautifully tender duet ‘If I Loved You’, a song so loaded with the promise of romance and deeply felt regret all at the same time - surely (or Shirley??) one of the best love songs in any Broadway repertoire.

Another of the musical’s high points comes with the opening ‘Carousel Waltz’ itself, an instrumental piece that perfectly captures the very mood of a funfair and is probably one of Rodgers’ finest compositions. It won’t leave your head for days!

While the camerawork may look a bit dated now, the story is still relevant and quite moving. Both of the leads (Gordon McRae and Shirley Jones) are well cast and the singing is excellent. Exquisite stuff indeed.

Customer Review: A Timeless Musical Masterpiece
Undoubtedly the most touching and beautifully written of Rogers and Hammerstein's movie-musicals, this film is in turns lightheartedly funny and tear-jerkingly sad. Featuring classic songs “June is Busting Out All Over”, “If I Loved You” and “You'll Never Walk Alone” and the undisputed talent of Shirley Jones and Gordon McRae, this film will leave you with tears streaming down your face long after the credits.
