Ok, I'll admit it. I didn't know a thing about this movie when I brought it home. I noticed that Jim Caviezel was in it, so I just grabbed it off the shelf. My kids were reluctant to view it with me, mainly because they had their heart set on watching some "smart-alecky" movie. As we started viewing the film, we realized that it was a great story, with a great cast. "An Absolute Treasure" - that's what I call this film. It touches the heart, mind, and soul. David's unbreakable spirit and haunting, expressive face will stay with me for a long time.
I Am David
I Am David is one of the most wonderful movie i have ever seen. It let me live in the wars and the history for hours. The communism is almost the past.. but you can live in the time of communism to feel it.
A RARE TREAT INDEED!!!!! You will be so happy you watched it.
This movie had my 11 yr. old son and I absolutely glued to the screen throughout. My son is ADD and RARELY anything gets his attention so you can only imagine how happy and pleased I was to see him so enthralled in this. I can't remember the last time I enjoyed a movie as much as this. This movie will tug at your heartstrings. After it was over I couldn't help but think how truly sad it is that a movie of this caliber so rarely comes out of hollywood. Why can't we see more films like this that stimulate your mind as well as your heart? WHAT A RARE TREAT INDEED!
Sweetness that doesn't turn saccharine is hard to find these days; Finding Neverland hits the mark. Much credit is due to the actors: Johnny Depp applies his genius for sly whimsy in his portrayal of playwright J. M. Barrie, who finds inspiration for his greatest creation from four lively boys, the sons of widow Sylvia Llewelyn Davies (Kate Winslet, who miraculously fuses romantic yearning with common sense). Though the friendship threatens his already dwindling marriage, Barrie spends endless hours with the boys, pretending to be pirates or Indians--and gradually the elements of Peter Pan take shape in his mind. The relationship between Barrie and the Llewelyn Davies family sparks both an imagined world and a quiet rebellion against the stuffy forces of respectability,...

While it works better as a somber mood piece than a futuristic thriller, The Final Cut posits a unique what-if scenario that some viewers will find fascinating. In a role that calls for his low-key One Hour Photo persona, Robin Williams plays an expert "cutter" who's in demand for his ability to distill anyone's lifetime into a feature-length "rememory" film that highlights the better side of anyone's nature. His profession is made possible by the "Zoe" chip, a prenatal brain implant capable of recording a person's entire lifetime--a technology opposed by a former cutter (Jim Caviezel) and puzzled over by Williams' on-and-off girlfriend (Mira Sorvino). First-time writer-director Omar Naim divided critics with his impressive visual style and lackluster screenplay, which fails...

This movie shows a panorama of awful events in Poland during the nazi occupation of WWII. It demonstrates the evil acts of the nazis and the terrible effects they have on the Pols and their behavior toward each other.
The religious aspects of the film are strange and lacking in depth or quality.
The only reason I can think of to watch this is to be reminded of how terribly humans can act toward each other. More Info about this DVD Director(s): Yurek Bogayevicz DVD Release Date: Released the 04 January 2005 Usually ships in 24 hours

Solidly built around a subtle yet commanding performance by Don Cheadle, Hotel Rwanda emerged as one of the most highly-praised dramas of 2004. In a role that demands his quietly riveting presence in nearly every scene, Cheadle plays real-life hero Paul Rusesabagina, a hotel manager in the Rwandan capital of Kigali who in 1994 saved 1,200 Rwandan "guests" from certain death during the genocidal clash between tribal Hutus, who slaughtered a million victims, and the horrified Tutsis, who found safe haven or died. Giving his best performance since his breakthrough role in Devil in a Blue Dress, Cheadle plays Rusesabagina as he really was during the ensuing chaos: "an expert in situational ethics" (as described by critic Roger Ebert), doing what he morally had to do, at...
