1. Surprisingly, amazing. - This movie played out exactly how I thought it would, but still, very fantastic. I found myself rooting, loudly, for Becky. She did not disappoint. Also, Kevin James...him in this role was pretty awesome. I loved seeing him as the bad dude in charge vs. the comedic “dumb-dumb”. To be clear, I love his comedic side...but this was a pleasant surprise. I feel like this movie was Home Alone meets The Equilizer but in the most gruesome of ways! Great buy.

2. Director's Cut - when i watched the movie, i thought it was gonna be awesome. After that, i thought it was ok. Before, i thought the comic panels were alright, the acting was ok, and thought it was pretty good. Now, after listening to what other people are saying about the director's cut, i felt like an idiot buying the director's cut. I didn't see director's cut when i looked at the cover (i'm not sure it says it on there, but it might be), and i thought it was the original version, just with some few changes that couldn't possibly ruin the movie experience for me. But, now that i saw the the reviews on how it removed some of the scenes, it felt like a rip off. WTH. Today, i still can't get that freaking movie out of my head (only in anger for the director's cut). this movie killed my movie experience a lot more than MAD MAX, and even the video game, Far Cry (only comparing it to story and characters). I felt like i want to smash the blu-ray disc into a million pieces and light it on fire, for ruining the "Warriors" experience, that was so looking forward to and hopefully get in depth to, because of my idiocy and actions of buying that version of the movie. Probably soon after i find the original version and buy it, i would throw that director's cut disc in the trash, and hope i never remember a god forsaken thing about the director's BAD CHOICES IN EDITING THE BEST MOVIE IN CINEMA HISTORY.

3. A film that deserves to be above just cult classic - Before I begin typing a review of this, as of now this film's got The Road Warrior, Mad Max, Predator, Death Proof, Dune, Dark City, Ong-Back - The Thai Warrior, Starship Troopers, Total Recall, and The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly in it's Viewers Also Bought section.....can't say much for Dark City and Ong-Back - The Tai Warrior [haven't seen them] but if these films that are recommended with this film don't encourage you to get this........I don't know what will. Anyway, onto the review........when I was in high school the video game adapation by RockStarGames was released........I heard that this film was that great........a few years later, I decided to check this film out........I should hit myself for not seeing this film til then because it is awesome. The Warrior gang, like the Wild Bunch, show that there is honor among bad guys. The action in this film is just great.....but I should have expected this since it was directed by Walter Hill, the man behind such great action films as Hard Times, Wild Bill, and Last Man Standing. I highly recommend this movie for anyone who loves great action movies.........so, check it out.

2. NOT in Original widescreen - For some reason iTunes keep selling movies in : aspect when there were originally shot in widescreen. This is another total ripoff to customers. HD should also mean ORIGINAL. TOTAL waste of money. Especially, since tht fact is NOT mentioned in the details of the file. This seems to happen alot with older movies than newer ones. Apple should be ashamed of this kind of knowing bait and switch. Buyer deserve to presented with the truth so WE can decide if that how we want to view the film or purcahse it elsewhere.

3. Turning a Challenge Into Triumph - The studio had the rights to a dozen or so wonderful songs that had survived shows that were flops. So the task to husband/wife writing team of Betty Comden and Adolph Green: Come up with an idea that could use all these songs, and weave them into a movie. That must have seemed impossible. Then they came up with the brilliant idea of using the technology revolution in moving pictures -- they could talk! -- as the background, the mortar to hold together the many musical numbers. The result is engaging, enchanting, hilarious, eye-popping, and leaves you with an overdose of endorphins. It's the cure for the common cold, and the antidote to a gloomy day. Keep it on hand, and take it with a grain of salt (and the margarita to go with it), or a cup of hot cocoa. Repeat as needed. Refill as many times as needed.

4. Most notable for the dancing - ...Otherwise the plot is nothing remarkable, and loses steam halfway through. It starts out with the appealing theme of the transition from silent movies to talkies, and then morphs into a rather lame (albeit song-and-dance-filled) sitcom about the characters' rivalry with the "evil" Lena Lamont. I always hated how they villianized Lena and thought they should have kept her as the funny side character that she started out being, and focused on the "talkies" plot with a different conflict. To me, it just ruined the story to see the absurd and hilarious Lena become the bad guy. Cheesy. The three main characters are also rather grating with their chirpy good cheer and hammy acting. I grew up with this film but, even so, never liked it as much as The Sound of Music or Mary Poppins, which have much stronger plots and performances. I know they're not the same kind of musicals so it's probably silly to even compare them - but just sayin'. The only things that carry this film, in my opinion, are the dance scenes with Kelly and O'Connor (they're phenomenal) and the final ballet sequence. (I suspect those are also the main reasons critics praise this movie so much.)

5. Wow - I recently saw this movie in the theater (it was a TCM -night only showing), and since then, I've wanted to own it. I am faced with two options: spend $ on a Blu-Ray version when I don't even have a Blu-Ray player, or spend $ (for a movie this old, i feel it would be pointless to get the HD version) on the iTunes version and connect my iPod to the TV... Hmmm...

1. Great movie for anyone who believes in justice! - Bronson is a one of a kind. If you have a heart and believe in social justice you will love this movie. It's in the same genre as the Star Chamber starring Michael Douglas. Far too often people are victimized and they feel powerless. But this movie shows what one man can do to right a wrong when the system fails. We need to have a Star Chamber for all the white colored criminals who destroy millions of lives, like Bernie Madoff and Wall Street thugs. Since they virtually write the law (and are cheered on by corrupt, ignorant republican's who deregulate businesses to allow them to prey on others) they get away with their crimes. If we had a Star Chamber you would see an instant change in businesses and the corrupt thugs who run them. Right now they fear no one as they steal billions from hard working Americans. But a Star Chamber would make them be honest. So would people like the great Charles Bronson.

2. Pathetic - This movie and it's equally moronic sequels tell you all there is to know about Michael Winners talents as a director. I cannot imagine why anyone would want to pay to watch such utter tripe. The action scenes are completely ham fisted and brought about by totally unbelievable circumstances poorly acted by meaningless charactors. Save your money. If I could give this movie a minus score, I would. Charles Bronson should be ashamed of himself for accepting the role...

3. The original vigilante! - Death Wish was a great movie when it came out and is still great today. All of the new vigilante movies we see today, still pale in comparison to Death Wish. Most recently "The Brave One" attempts to recreate the raw gritty emotion and driving desire for vengeance that exudes from this movie. When this came out, the streets of many major citys were awash in crime and drug use, and many people felt hopeless and helpless. Cops were unsympathetic and crime was simply the way of life. Here was a hero that was doing what everyone at the time wanted to do - blow away thugs! Great movie! As a bonus you'll get to see a young Jeff Goldblum play a thug. My only tiny complaint is not with the movie, but with itunes. What's with the $. rental for a year old movie?
2008-07-27
4. Fairly Entertaining - One of the many classic action movies of the 's. Charles Bronson does a good job as an old hero, but the plot is way to predictable. If you keep up with movies, or even books, you'll probably be able to geuss the ending after the first five minutes. If you're looking for a good movie, this isn't it. If you're just an action junkie... it's outdated. I do like Bronson though.

1. Jack Nicholson's performence is fantastic - One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest is a crazy movie that involves the horrors and craziness of mental hosptials. Jack Nicholson plays Randle McMurphy a faker of crazy people and hand helds himself into the mental looney bin. Jack Nicholson is good playing this wild character and he should play more crazy people and starr in worthy dramas like these.

2. awesome movie - i just saw this movie last night for the first time and i was completely blown away. Louise Fletcher does an outstanding job playing Nurse Ratched. Jack Nicholson was great and everyone else was great also. i hope hollywood never remakes this movie because i can't think of anyother actors who could do as good a job as these actors did.

3. One of the best movies ever made that Jack Nicholson played in ! - I first remember seeing this and my junior English class in . And ever since then Jack Nicholson and his movies he's played and have been one of my favorites. But to me this is one of his best I don't all the movies he made. I believe that one and every Oscar category at that time. One of the few movies to do so. Hat's off to you Jack Nicholson after all these years your still great! There's some classic actors in this movie like Danny DeVito the guy that played in the movies back to the future and others! A must-have for your collection.

4. Surprisingly awesome! - I had to watch this for and class film analysis and I was surprised at how good it was. It really shows a different perspective on the mentally ill from how media and television usually paint them. Love the view the director took on the film. The patients we're portrayed more human and the psych ward worker were more like machines.

5. LOVE IT! - I have this book to read as an assignment for English class and it was quite hard to picture everything that is happening inside my head so I decided to watch the movie to get a better understanding of the book. Once I finished the movie, reading the book made it so much easier to understand! I'm still reading the book and it's great so far because now I have faces of the characters in my mind while reading. Loving the book and the movie was awesome. If you get a chance to watch and read One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest. I recommend watching the movie and reading it. You won't regret it.

6. Good, Not Great - It's a good movie but I never thought it was the classic a lot of folks obviously did and do. It's a great cast and they give great performances, but I don't think it's a great script. It leans too heavily for me on the very cliched questions of who's crazy and who's sane, who's got the power and how do ya fight the Man, man -- only in this case the Man is a woman. Brilliantly played by Fletcher I admit. But somehow for me her battle royale of the wills with Nicholson never really rang true, so the big payoffs at the end never hit me the way they clearly hit other folks. And it meanders and wanders, losing tension and momentum with too much time spent watching the crazy guys act out and do wacky things. If you wanna see that watch Marat/Sade. Kesey hated this adaptation of his darker, harder, more focused novel, and I think part of the problem is that by the mid-s when it was made its early-s countercultural metaphors and revolutionary questions were already stale and canned -- a problem Forman faced on an even more insurmountable scale with his disastrously corny and phony adaptation of Hair a few years later. This was a good and authentic story for the pre-hippie, pre-Yippie early s, not so good and definitely not as authentic by the polyester bellbottom everyone-in-Hollywood's-a-rebel-maaan mid-s.

7. Great Movie, Extras don't work - Love the movie, just that the extras that come with the movie do not work. I've had other movies that had extras, that after purchase and download had NO issue. But for some reason the extras refuse to play after downloading a nd time(after contacting itunes/apple). Already emailed a reply and awaiting a response and hopefully a resolve to my issue.

8. What a Cuckooo!!! - This movie for me was totally life changing. I saw the world differently after seeing this film as an yr old back when it first came out. For me, it was an outstanding piece of writing and the directing was just superb! If it wasnt for the godfather movie I would have placed jacks flick in the spot. I had to place it for me as behind godfather & . As for shanan peters I agree with jkc, was shanan smoking some wacky weed or what? She's the type of person who is a follower and leaves reviews based on what other people say instead of actually voicing her own opinion. Heres some advice for you Shanan, watch the movie again but this time update your review with the actual color of the movie. Which by the way wasn't in black and white.

1. Emotional - I remember I was really young in elementary school, probably rd grade, and my mom didn't realize this movie was as serious as it is, she just thought it was a cartoon so it'd be funny. She rented it for me and I watched it, and I remember crying so much because it was so sad. I recently rewatched this and recognized its power and how moving it is. I definitely would recommend this movie to anyone who likes more serious and emotional Animes, or movies centered around the historical WWII era. Just, don't let your young kids watch it haha
2017-05-20
2. A beautiful and tragic story of children - I have seen many films, and this is by far my favorite. Towards the end of WW, Japan was attacked by the US, creating problems for the Japanese. Seita and Setsuko lived with their aunt but left do to her awful attitude towards them and her stealing their food for her and her own family. The children begin to survive on their own, and because food is hard to come by and nobody would sell any to them, they have to survive. They had money, but nobody would sell food which is why Seita never bought any, and that's something people who watched this were very ignorant about since war shortened the people's supplies. Seita wasn't prideful or stupid, he just couldn't get any food since it was unavailable and they couldn't go back to their aunt because she likely wouldn't have let them come back. This was a beautiful and sad film that must be seen by everyone.

3. Haunting and Beautiful. A Masterpiece - This movie certainly redefines the boundaries and emotions you would ever expect from a anime film. As emotional and moving as any drama. Unflinching in the moments the characters suffer. Unflinching in the callousness and fragility of society and humanity. There is no shock or suddenness. But simply patient pathos and tragedy. Weakness, desperation, indifference, and inequality are subtlety laid bare for the viewer to form their own reactions and relations.
2016-08-20
4. Great movie, well made... - I was hoping this movie would appear in the iTunes catalog. And I'm so glad I got my hands on this one. "Grave of the Fireflies" is, so far, the only Studio Ghibli film I purchased off of iTunes.
This English dubbed version is really good. However, the subtitles do not match with the spoken dialogue (probably because the subtitles were taken from another English dub or the original Japanese version). Anyway, this movie has decorative backgrounds and character designs. And everything is very emotional too. The process of how Setsuko and Seita tried to survive the air raids, and the independent living after several days of being with their aunt's. Very emotional.
But the only thing that's missing is the original Japanese audio track. If iTunes goes and makes a Ghibli film available, a Japanese audio track is supposed to be added so audiences can hear the film in its original language and compare two language tracks.
But other than that, "Grave of the Fireflies" is a really good movie.
Yes, I hope Apple releases all Studio Ghibli films in the catalog because this one is the only I could find so far. One time, Miyazaki's "Lupin III: The Castle of Cagliostro" was on iTunes until it vanished. I hope Disney and Studio Ghibli allow all these films to be released digitally. It's time to bring these films back. And also, "From Up on Poppy Hill," "The Tale of Princess Kaguya," "When Marnie was There," and "Only Yesterday" should be added.

5. Better dubbed - I watch many different foreign films and I find this dubbed version to be wholly adequate to the subtitled. I may be one of the minority but I always find that subtitles distract me away from the story. That being said this is a movie that everyone should experience even though it is technically an anime movie. It is not only a story about innocence lost but about pride as well. Sad but like any good story it has something bigger to say.
2015-03-07
6. Still Good, though dubbed - I never seen the subtitled version but many people have said that the dubbed version isn’t good. Perhaps if one saw the subbed version, either before or after this version, ones opinion would be different. Basically, if you hadn’t seen the subbed version this movie is still rather enjoyable.
2014-09-20
7. Beautiful film - This is one of the best films I have ever seen, particularly for an animation. If I had anything to complain about it’s that it’s a dubbed version. Frankly I would rather that foreign language films and shows that have been dubbed have both audio and subtitles because sometimes I would like to watch the native language. And with luck this is the beginning of all Ghibli coming to iTunes
2014-03-16
8. Yay!!! - Finally ITunes came out with a Studio Ghibli movie, so happy! I was about to buy the disk online but when I herd it was coming to iTunes I pre-ordered it, and was not disappointed. I've watched most of the studio ghibli movies and this was one of my favorite although it was really sad at times. I Hope for more studio ghibli!!

1. Pioneering Revenge Picture - Is it slow at times? Yes. Is it low budget? Yes. Is it worth watching? Absolutely. This is the grandaddy of all revenge movies. (Death Wish wouldn't come out until the following year.) How much is fact is debatable, but it is based some actual events in the life of Sherrif Buford Pusser. Don't watch it expecting high art, watch it because it is a good story.
2022-02-23
2. How is this considered a classic? - There’s issues with the pacing of this film. At times it is slow as molasses. Other times it goes ninety miles an hour. Some of the plot choices make little sense. The character development is lackluster. Where are the arcs? What are the motivations? Where’s the compelling story? Why don’t characters choices make sense? You watch the movie stuff just happens. It doesn’t make sense. Yes, the remake is derivative of the original and I love Hitchcock and classic films... this ain’t it. I still prefer the remake. The remake did a better job of telling a compelling story and presenting believable characters that you could root for or a clear villain you could despise. Sorry, but the do nothing sherif isn’t compelling. Sometimes a villain needs to be obvious. Also, I’m not a fan of the war on moonshine. You can buy moonshine at bars now. The remake had a better screenwriter, a better director, a better cast, better cinematography, better pyrotechnics, better stunts, and a better villain. The newer film while imperfect is just better. I will say that the original has a better soundtrack. This film also has a racism problem. Above all, I love Hitchcock and classic films... this ain’t one.

1. iTunes & Apple TV Extras and K needed - This is a powerful story of the Crucifixion of Jesus and good movie, but as an improvement, can you guys add iTunes & Apple TV Extras for this movie such as the audio commentaries and behind-the-scenes features of the Definitive Edition along with the recut version and also upgrade to K? I found on the home video releases of the film they have the Special Features on home video releases but not on iTunes and Apple TV. This is really annoying when the Special Features appear in the Home Video releases of movies but not on iTunes as iTunes & Apple TV Extras. I also remember that before they took it off iTunes, THE PASSION OF THE CHRIST had iTunes & Apple TV Extras from the Definitive Edition. I think it’s time that Apple TV and iTunes should make it mandatory for all movies that came with Special Features on home video be released on iTunes as Apple TV & iTunes Extras as well. Can you guys please add iTunes & Apple TV Extras for this movie such as the audio commentaries and behind-the-scenes features along with the recut version and also upgrade to K so people can see behind-the-scenes of how movies are made?

2. Disturbing - Firstly, this film isn’t Anti-Semitic. Not even close. Secondly, this film is quite possibly on par with Schindler’s List for containing the most realistically disturbing violence on film I have ever seen. Very sad movie, and one that won’t leave you happy. It was a very well acted, which made it that much harder to watch. Jim Cavaziel’s Jesus was very well done and his Gethsemane scene was very painful to see. Before you watch this, go see South Park’s Passion of the Jew first. That way you’ll watch it with a humble heart
2022-08-19
3. Indescribably Beautiful… - A superb film artistically, theologically and narratively. Brutal, beautiful and life-changing. This film did in fact change the course of my life. A sacred, sacramental work of art. Bravo to Gibson, Caveizel Deschanel and all involved. I have no doubt God is pleased by this faithful and fearless rendering of the most significant event in human history.
2022-04-20
4. Best visual representation of Christ's sufferings - If it makes you feel sorrow, its doing its job, no film can show how much Christ suffered enough, and this film is one of the best visuals we can get. Yes he suffered this much and more and we need to be reminded of that, if you feel guilt you should, we all should, we caused this anyways. This is what was nescessary to save us. Seeing Mary is great as well, to see how much she suffered.
2022-04-16
5. Most successful horror movie of all time - Don’t let your Christian faith guilt you into convincing yourselves you liked this torture porn. Mel Gibson did a great job directing but if you’re going to tell the story of Jesus, is the brutal relentless torture of Jesus for two hours the story we really want to see and pretend we want to rewatch ever again. This is the most successful horror movie ever.
2022-04-15
6. Wow - This is as close to the reality of pain and heartbreak Jesus subjected Himself to for us that we can experience visually. It’s hard to watch knowing that my sin, our sin, is the reason He had to die this horrific death. I’m eternally grateful He is risen and death no longer has a grip on life for those in Jesus.
2022-03-20
7. A Fantastic Portrayal of Christ’s Passion - Few movies come from Hollywood that take Christianity seriously. Mel Gibson however provides a powerful exception. With emotional historical accuracy along with amazing screenplay and storytelling, The Passion of the Christ brings the final hours of Jesus’ life to your screen.
2021-08-02
8. What makes this movie special... - What makes this movie special was: () it came out a few years after our country suffered one of the greatest tragedies on our soil, . () We were at war in the Middle East, our military family members were being sent away. The st century started out in vunerability, turmoil, and despair. This film, independently supported by a well-known actor/director, re-ignited a spiritual flame in people struggling to understand our world at that time through the religious lens. God Bless this movie and our country. Can't wait for the sequel, 'The Resurrection.'

1. Hailrious and very well intended - Blazing Saddles looks fake as anything but this movie is so funny that's it's a warner bros mistake. Sure Blazing Saddles is racist and very offenisve but it bascially works like this. I love all the jokes and well written characters that are intersesting to look it. I enjoyed this spoof movie in the end you think that this movie is builttproof and very well-written.

2. Politic Correct is BS ! - If you are tired of political correctness, ie you have a sense of humor, then this is the movie for you. It was made for men and women with guts. It pokes holes in the sacred cows of liberalism. How much better would it have been if they left in the “real zingers” that they allegedly took out? If you can’t laugh at it this movie then you are a meow meow.
2018-12-05
3. What about Young Frankenstein?! - Blazing Saddles is a great movie and all, but what about Young Frankenstein? Doesn’t it deserve to be on iTunes and have a full-length motion picture soundtrack? ESPECIALLY, when it’s years since its initial release? What? Is Mel Brooks or th Century Fox waiting another years for its th anniversary? And, even more, are they gonna give John Morris his proper due for composing the soundtrack? Come on!!! I’m not only one thinking about this, right?
2017-10-25
4. Blazing Great! - Priceless. That’s all I got to say. We open with a nice Western ballad, followed by the craziest Western film ever made. Basically, Attorney General Hedley Lamarr (Harvey Korman) wants to destroy a small town named Rock Ridge. To get the town out of his way, he decides to appoint a black sheriff to said town because people would chase him out (it was ) because they’d be offended by him. So he sends Bart (Cleavon Little) a railroad worker he decided not to have hung in order to achieve this. Bart’s rejected by the town as Lemarr and Governor Le Petomane (Mel Brooks) predicted, but after Bart meets the “Waco Kid,” (Gene Wilder) they work together to get the townsfolk (aka, the Johnson family) to save the town in one of the most wild, wildly hilarious, high flying ist, rootin-tootin Westerns ever made, thanks to Mel Brooks’ sense of humor, turning the genre on its head like he would with sci-fi in Spaceballs years later, and of course, breaking the fourth wall, a part of which brings up my only problem I can’t discuss without spoilers. Bart and “Waco Kid” prove to be a dynamic duo who clearly don’t take anything seriously in this unserious world they create. Cleavon Little and Gene Wilder make for hilarious comedy that doesn’t even have to play the race card (much). They do their bits and become best friends in a semi-believable manner in this fast paced comedy that doesn’t need to be perfectly coherent. The soundtrack also sets the hilarious mood with John Morris’ zippy tunes that stay true to the Western genre. The humor was highly controversial in theory, but hilarious in practice. Don’t try these words at home or out in the streets, or anywhere except if you’re watching this movie and are saying it in anticipation of hearing the line. If you take out the offensive stuff, you won’t have a movie, this stuff is comedy gold. It’s meant to be offensive, it’s to make fun of how brutal the Wild West really was, and how it was glorified in Westerns of old. So heads up: there are a lot of slurs and a few swears here and there, so you probably didn’t come across this channel surfing, or if you did, then the point was lost. Anyway, Blazing Saddles, hilarious comedy, check it out, now if you’ll excuse me, I got a review to read within this review.

5. one of the worst comedies of all time - i watch this movie and was realy excited to see it because i heard it's one of the best. i was not impresse d. the best movie of all time is Monty Python and the Holy Grail. Blazing saddles sucked, it wasnt even that funny. i laughed probeley twice. dont wast your money.
2015-12-11
6. Masterpiece - One of the best movies I have ever had the pleasure of laughing at. Blazing Saddles could not be made today, with everyone so sensitive about things in the world today, a movie like this would have endured criticisim. But, I as an African American, can see the humor in it and can take it for what it is, comedy gold.
2014-09-04
7. "What In The Wide Wide World Of Sports Is A-Goin - I love this movie. It has all the right jokes that make viewers fall out of their seats laughing their heads off every time they watch it. From scenes such as the "Camptown Ladies," "The Sheriff Is Near," "Excuse Me While I Whip This Out," "Candygram For Mongo," "Where's My Froggy?," "The French Mistake," and who could forget the farting cowboy scene. Bottom line, there will be something for everyone in this classic film.
2012-10-20
8. Blazing Saddles - I saw this several times in the theaters and drive-ins in . Then, it was one of the first three or four movies I bought on video tape when I got my first VCR (Betamax). Outrageously crude, rude and socially unacceptable yet, it's the funniest movie ever made. (Airplane is a close second in my view.) It's true it can be construed as quite racist and politically incorrect by today's standards (even by yesterday's standards--to a degree) but the biggest joke is that Bart is the smartest person in the film. The only thing iTunes could add to make this better is the 'th Anniversary Edition which has remastered video and an outstanding Dolby Digital . ("stereo") soundtrack (the original was only in mono)--it's dramatically better all around. But regardless, a great purchase.

1. Literally the best movie ever. - I simply love it.
I mean, it has all of my favorite genres combined, plus more. War, history, drama, romance, a bit of comedy, and this is such a heartfelt movie. Inspirational even. It also just shows how turbulent the decade of the s through the s were. The moon landing, the Vietnam war, JFK's assassination, and a lot more. It also amazed me on how they were able to film the part where Forrest met with president Kennedy. I mean, he was dead when this movie was made, so was it like a green screen or CGI? I mean, this is such a well made movie. Though I kind of wish it gave us some background on Jenny's dad. I know he was abusive, but like what did he do? I just love every last bit of this movie. I could write and entire essay on how much I love this movie.

2. The most INANE movie I’ve ever seen... - The last time I boarded a plane, I made SURE I got a window seat. It was a clear, gorgeous day. I was ready with my camera. We get up in the air and stewardess announces to lower our window shades. We were going to see a movie. ”WHAT? Are you crazy? The view is perfectly clear. The United States is passing underneath us! The mountains look like frosted cookies! “And you want to show a movie? Are you some kind of lunatic?” They put on Forrest Gump! “I hate this movie! It is so exceedingly STUPID! Forrest is supposed to be mentally challenged but he talks in complex sentences!” “Life is like a box of chocolates...” Tell your son, Sally, all he has to do is turn over the chocolate and you can see what is inside!” Frosted cookies! I wouldn’t wish this movie on ANYone! I lifted my shade!

3. Forrest Gump changed my life - Forrest Gump that starrs the one and only Tom Hanks is the most heartfelt movies i have seen all year. Forrest Gump is about this audtistic man who comes from being a everyday man into a modern generation which is the best character development in have seen in a film thus far. Tom Hanks gives a fantastic performence as Forrest Gump as we see him go from vitenam to riding boats, Bubba Shrimp, running the world all those things repersent a regular normal guy and all those things Forrest Gump does is memeorable and fantastic. This film is well-written, well shot, brilliantly acted and directed i highly recommend Forrest Gump if you love it or not it's a heartbreaker.

4. Still the Berst Movie Ever - I have watched this movie for at least the th time and nothing compares. Albeit, I have been a Godfather and Godfather II faithful forever. But when it comes to downs and ups this movie lifts you like nothing else. So in order Forrest Gump. Godfather II and The Godfather in that order.

1. My Fav. John Wayne Movie of all time! - I am a John Wayne fan. My father would kill me if I didn't say that. This is my absolute favorite of his movies. Chism is great and who shot liberty valence is too...but his one is the best. Story is awesome. Wayne is tough but also has a spot in his heart for the girl. This is a must see for those who even think they like John Wayne.

2. Karen Carpenter to play Mattie Ross??? - I picked one star because I have not seen this movie and I am not a fan of John Wayne. I wanted to let you all know that my being a Huge Carpenters' fan that Karen Carpenter did read for the part of Mattie Ross. Wayne just loved her and her voice so much that he wanted her for that role. Well she did a screen test and lost out to Darby. What a shame, it would be interesting how True Grit would have turned out if she won the role. Again I am not knocking this movie by one star it is just I have not seen it yet. The Carpenters' TV specials I have seen, I think Carpenter had a natural talent for acting believe it or not. Just thought I would share this trivia with you True Grit fans out there. Take care…...

3. True Grit - All of the Duke's films are fantastic. Some reviewers say it is miscast or not filmed well, but they are judging the film by standards. In it took several years to film and edit. By tbe standards of , it was one of the best films made. It is on my "favorite" list , along with "Old Yeller" and " Call of the wild". My family loves all of John Waynes movies. We dont have to rent them , our library is full.

4. New one - I honestly was not that impressed w/ this movie. people say it's a great film, i kinda disagree. It's entertaining but if they had improved on a lot of things (acting, filmmaking, etc.) then I may have liked it more. but they didn't. the acting was horrible, especially from Glenn Campbell and Kim Darby who were both WAY miscast, there were times I found myself laughing at parts where they were trying to be serious, etc. for a western movie, the town of Fort Smith looks too modern. even the locations for where the movie's supposed to take place are wrong. Fort Smith is in Arkansas and the Indian Territory is Oklahoma today. if you lived around those areas or been through them, you can easily tell that's neither. now don't get me wrong, I have nothing against John Wayne but I don't see why people say he's the real Rooster Cogburn. he was just himself. The way jeff bridges portrayed Cogburn was much closer to what the author of the book had intended and thus I think HE'S the real Rooster. the new one had better acting, was much more well shot, and was more faithful to the book than the old one was, like the ending for example. The ending of the first one wasn't AT ALL like the book. I recommend the new one. or read the book

5. Not better then the remake - Seriously, all the corny acting and inaccurate historical depictions are a huge let down. At the time, this was a great movie. Now, it's looked at as we do much of old movies, with the notion they couldn't act and then we tend to forgive that. But nope, all of these reviews saying it's better then the new one forgot what acting is.
2011-07-23
6. One of My Fav Movies of All Time! - I honestly did NOT want to see this movie at first. My dad was making me watch it and I was like "Ugh I DO NOT want to see some cowboy movie". So I watched it and I must say it is one of my favorite movies. Although the new True Grit is more true to the book, this version (like the new one) has an AMAZING Rooster Cogburn and Maddie Ross and the plot is easy to follow!
2011-02-08
7. True Grit - Original - This is an epic western and showcases the quintessential John Wayne. Before renting it over the weekend, I hadn't seen it from beginning to end in, well, probably years at least. I wanted to see it again before going to the theater to see the remake. I sure hope the new one is half as good as the old one.
2011-01-18
8. One of the All-Time Greatest Films Ever Made - This is the only movie I have ever bought online. I wanted one that I could watch over and over again on my phone without getting tired of it, like on long flights, and this is the one. I will always be in love with Kim Darby, and of course the Duke is at his best, which is still unapproached by any other actor, in my judgment. This film is a most unusual and extraordinary achievement by all concerned.

1. Ferris bulers day off - This movie is amazing!a little inopropriate if you know what I mean but I mean awesome!The most popular scenes in my opinion are at the pool,Cameron destroying his dads car, and at the rally when Ferris sings. I love that quote at the end, “life moves pretty fast, if you don’t stop and look around every once and a while, you might miss it.”Ferris Bulers day off Is the best movie ever!
2021-07-22
2. It's so hot outside but this movie changed my life - Ferris Bueller's Day off is the perfect example of how to take a friend road trip to chicago and do friend to friend things. It's funny and entertaining so as the beautiful sets and costume designs are all perfect in this quark son of a gun comedy.
2020-03-31
3. Great movie. But, - I think it’s stupid that they never released the soundtrack to this movie. It’s not like we’re going to be listening to the soundtrack over and over and over and over again constantly. There’s other music we can listen to. Thus it won’t get boring. Maybe they’ll come out with it on the th year anniversary of the film. One that won’t be a limited edition.

4. Timeless Classic - This hilarious masterpiece is my favorite of John Hughes' work. I shall quote another great movie in saying "Just once I want my life to be like an 's movie, preferably one with a really awesome musical number for no apparent reason. But no, no, John Hughes did not direct my life." Easy A
2018-02-12
5. New Favorite! - The story and characters are fantastic! Cameron is so funny due to his reactions in the scenarios he is put in by his friend Ferris who is carefree and is so charming while doing it. Sloane is elegant and beautiful and brings out a sincere, loving side of Ferris.
The relationships in the movie are what really hooked me. Ferris doting on Sloane is absolutely adorable. Then the contrast between Ferris and Cameron’s personalities is a great balance for their friendship to be played out on-screen.

1. Well made but glorification of monsters - Historically inaccurate and a glorification of murderers and thieves that didn’t just take on the “system” and the rich, but victimized regular and poor folks as well. It also slanders a legendary lawman effectively turning him into the villain. The reality is the retired Texas Ranger that hunted them down spent his life taking down murderers for hire and the Klan, saving African Americans from being lynched. Here he’s portrayed as a petty vengeful man humiliated by Bonnie and Clyde in a completely fictional moment.
As for the film on its own merits the leads are charismatic but often are broad bordering on camp and caricature. The violence was pretty shocking for the era and remains potent. Period detail is textured and realistic. What it boils down to is whether you enjoy rooting for doomed lovers with penchant for murder, kidnapping and robbery in a celebrated film that makes a point to make them sympathetic.

2. A Classic, For Sure. - Lesson for the young folk, if so inclined. This movie came out at the same time I also watched The Great Train Robbery. I'm not even into my teenage years. The contrast between the two criminal frames of mind. One group has an objective and plans their actions so that no one should get hurt in the process. They take pride in the fact that no one should, if at all possible, get hurt while they take possession of the gold bars. The other group never learned to simply care; never learned the sense of satisfaction and self-worth that comes from planning a task and a job well done. The parallels to everyday life can be made for what ails US these days. Sloppy vs. Quality, and throw the psychology books in the dumpsters and install a sense to simply CARE! "I don't care!" Well, learn to care, young man, 'cause things don't boil down simpler than that." Enough said.

3. One of the best movies ever! - I found out about this movie because I heard that Cher had tried out for Bonnie, and since Bonnie and Clyde have always interested me, I decided to rent it. Money well spent! I love this movie! The plot is great and it's really cool!
Faye Dunaway is excellent as Bonnie, I love the outfit she wears throughout the movie(:
Warren Beatty was GORGEOUS years ago. It's a shame people grow old... I'm only but I adore this movie and definitely reccomend it, but not for younger kids as it is rated R and has a lot of shooting.
2010-01-31
4. OMG!!!! - This movie is SOOOOO GOOOOOD!!!! I've always heard that it was one of the best movies ever made, and it really is!!!! It is most definately a cinematic achievement, introducing violence in films (you can correct me if i'm wrong, by the way). It has so much depth to it, and the cast is very good as well! Faye Dunaway and Warren Beatty truly have chemistry, and their acting is amazing! And Warren Beatty is ga-ga-gorgeous in this movie!!!!!

1. Perfect in every way. - Brad Bird is one of those directors who can do no wrong in my opinion, and this films really cements that for me. The Characters are so well written and acted that it’s impossible for me to find them annoying or boring in anyway, while it’s themes of friendship and acceptance resonate with me deeply. I recommend the film to all, it’s fantastic.

2. Unforgettable and well made - The Iron Giant was a visualy stunning movie for my childhood because the main character child wanted a friend so he gets The Iron Giant (voiced by Vin Diesel) and the animation was kinda dated but the rest of the film is just action and heartflet sad scenes that served propose to the story although there are few cliches and cheesy storylines but the performences were amazing i highly recommend The Iron Giant it's a visualy stunning animated movie with a lot of heart.
2020-07-21
3. A Classic in and of Itself!!! - When I was a freshman in high school, I was talking to one of my friends about this movie, and we both agreed that it was a classic in and of itself. This is a great movie for all ages, and it is very heart-felt and emotional. I don’t know how many times I have watched this movie, but I have loved it every time. In my opinion, this is one of Brad Bird’s best projects, and one of Vin Diesel’s best film roles! Hopefully, more movies can come out that are as good as this one!

4. Greatest movie ever made! - Love The Iron Giant, it's a great movie made by Warner Brothers! The story is about a young boy who rescues a giant who's fallen from the stars, and then he tells everyone he's nice not dangerous. This movie has one of the coolest and trickiest villains next to Gaston from Beauty and the Beast. The voice cast I thought was well done! There are a few dark and scary moments. This is a movie that kids and adults will enjoy! Overall, just great!

5. An American Classic. Download now and thank yourself later. - This has to be one of the best animated film of all time. Great story and amazing visuals. After seeing the “making of” I realize how great this movie is even more. Warner Bros. is doing it right. Guillermo del Toro said to Brad Bird (Directory of this movie after opening week), “Look in the light of the box office, the audience, the numbers, you feel like a loser, but this will pass. You have made a classic. It will stay in the hearts and minds of anyone who see it. It will honestly live forever”.

6. Easily our most-watched title - The characters alone fuel repeat views and add to the appeal of this endearing story. There's a warmth and presence felt, despite what would otherwise seem like a very sterile and cold subject: robots. I like introducing new people to this film. Also, my wife cries almost every time (no spoilers ;)
2016-08-27
7. A Classic for All Ages - The Iron Giant is one of the best animated movies ever, and its not just for kids. It is set in the ’s cold war/red scare time period and has a not too subtle anti-war political message that is also a heart-warming story about a boy and a robot that will make you cry and cheer. EVERY CHILD SO SEE THIS, so if you have kids get it now!

1. Uhm… star for animation… - If there’s any movie that should get a remake it’s this movie. Forget The Lion King, Mulan, Cinderella (Oh dear lord… The newest one is an embarrassment. Just saying.), and stuff like that. Remake The Ten Commandments. The fire scene and the parting of the water looks crappy and needs to be updated since we have the technology now. Stop remaking movies like the ones I previously mentioned and do this one.
2022-04-10
2. iTunes Extras and K needed - This is such a classic; retelling of the life of Moses; my only concern is where are the Special Features and iTunes Extras for people to watch? This is really annoying when the Special Features appear in the Home Video releases of movies but not on iTunes. Also, I found the extended version on Amazon Prime. I want to see what deleted scenes they cut from the final cut too.
2021-02-08
3. Who? - White washing at it’s finest. The King of Egypt was a bold headed white man . You made Moses and the Israelite white, so it made perfect sense to take out the part where the most high Yahawah turned Moses hand white as Snow, because how could you do that, he’s already white . One star for effects.
2021-01-16
4. Second Half is Awesome - This film takes forever to get going but once you get to The Burning Bush scene it is quite special in the story and ’s special effects. No CGI here . If you’re familiar with the story of Moses as most of us are you can skip to The Burning Bush and not miss anything vital.
2020-11-03
5. You will never get tired of this movie !!! ! - This movie makes me want to watch it again and again. It’s an all star cast and the special effects are great and advanced for the time period. I believe in keeping the Ten Commandments, it’s my way of getting into Heaven and bowing to GOD Almighty the Divine for allowing me the chance.
2019-11-26
6. Not Based on Fact - Selective re-telling that is applauded more for its spectacle than its blasphemous content/changes to the real accounts recorded in the Holy Scriptures. This movie production displays man's ignorance and obsession with sin, more than anything. For the audacity to alter the accounts AND individuals clearly recorded in the Holy Scriptures. Shameful.
2017-08-19
7. Great Movie, Just Missing Actor Info and other glitches - What can I say about this? It's a classic of a masterpiece written, directed, designed and starring some of Hollywood's most iconic figures that, along with Ben-Hur and King of Kings, proves that not all religious films need to pander to the conservative mindset, that a religious film can be as big, as epic and as inspirational as the faith they're trying to portray on the screen. Just two minor gripes-Charlton Heston, who plays Moses, is missing his credit, as well as Vincent Price, and when you download the full movie, instead of getting the film's poster, as you see in the store page, you get a generic panoramic image of the sun poking out through the clouds. So, what gives?

8. Magnificent film - This has always been one of my favorite movies! I just saw it for the first time on the big screen and without commercials - and I fell in love with it all over again. It's a visual and spiritual feast. So many fabulous actors, so many fantastic moments. It's just a magnificent film!

1. Phenomenal, amazing inside and out - Wow. The music is incredible, the storyline is incredible, the dancing and movement is incredible, and the whole overall movie is just breathtaking. This is one of my family’s favorites and one of my personal favorites. It is a very magical movie, teeming with life and a flashy story. I can’t stop singing these songs and am truly floored by this incredible piece of artwork. The Sound of Music is amazing, incredible, awesome, and deserves the highest esteem a movie can attain. This is a true classic, worthy of every dollar you pay for it. Every person who likes movies should watch it. It deserves an award. I can’t stop smiling after I watch this movie. Only Julie Andrews could play Maria's part so well, and the incredible romantic theme is just great. I love this movie all around, and it is one of the top best I’ve ever seen.

2. Uh-mazing - LOVE ITT!! WATCHED IT TIMES THIS MONTH AND IM ADDICTED!!! THE HILLS ARE ALIVE WITH THE SOUND OF MUUUUUUSICCCC Yes I’m and I don’t care, I don’t want the world to change into a place that doesn’t include music like this. It’s disappointing to compare to today, million people liking a picture of an egg. Anyways love it, rip Charmian and heather and love u Julie!!!

3. Best Movie Ever Made - For me to say that is truly a miracle, as I am not the top lover of musicals, but this feature musical film is the best movie ever made, in my opinion. In fact, I had not even watched it since the 's (in full) and just finished it for the first time since in June . Even after not seeing it since that long, many of the songs came back to me, as if it was yesterday. How about that incredible voice of July Andrews, and some of the others. Even, "I am , going on " or similar by a boy, was top notch, and that is my not me (a tough guy) to like such. Much of it brought tears to my eyes, thinking what a great influence it was, to the most positive attitudes as an example, to even July praying on her knees. Of course just a film, and many would love to have such a life. Sad to see or hear that the oldest daughter (in real life) has already passed away, but wow, what a long life Julie and Christopher (and career) they both have had, especially Mr. Plummer. A must buy, and greatful I picked it up at only $. not so long ago. Enjoy!
2018-06-10
4. One of the all time best movies! - This is the bar for which all musicals should be compared for! By far the greatest musical ever made. And to boot for, a movie that showcases great storytelling, cinematography, art direction, costumes, plus the wonderful direction of Mr Wise. You will be for a treat with the amazing cast headed by the wonderful and superb tour de force by Ms Andrews who not only chews the scenes but also shines as the lovely sans "rebellious" nun Maria, you'll be delighted by the masterful commanding acting of Mr Plummer who gives life to Mr von Trapp, but gives him a dimension a heart that makes you see that this man has a humanity inside. The supporting cast is amazing including the kids (the kids will steal your heart). All, as the movie will teach you, are "some of my favorite things"! I'm super glad is now on digital format and cannot wait to get it!

5. Waste of Money - I bought this movie, mostly because I am in a play and need to study, I bought the movie, and it asked me to grant my account permission. I did that no problem, but then it asked me to "download from app store" and I thought it would download the movie. It downloaded two apps automatically and my $ is wasted.
2016-09-07
6. I really like it but why should I buy it - I watched like two min of it in music class and I loved it. I looked for it on Netflix on the internet then I came here. (I came her cause the Internet and on the Internet it said I could rent it) I looked and no renting and no SD only one price so I'm not giving you my money. All I was doing was a movie marathon now I can't continue. (I'm also not buying it cause I usually only watch a movie once)
2016-07-16
7. Forever Love The Sound of Music - There is never a moment where I am not happy watching this film. My grandmother introduced it to me before I can even remember, and I will share it with my grandchildren, and they will share it with theirs. It is a timeless film, filled with good feelings, which is hard to find nowadays.

2. A true modern masterpiece very enjoyable! - Grease was the most good modern masterpiece of musicals. I like John Travolta in this film he does a fantastic job playing a Greaser and Olivia Newton-John is fantastic playing John Travolta's love mate. Grease has a feel that has juicy musical numbers, good cinematopgraphy, excellent performences and overall it's very enjoyable to me and culture i highly recommend Grease it's very entertaining and I-tunes should let me review this movie because they keep taken it down.
2020-07-15
3. I fell in love with Olivia Newton-John for the very first time - Grease is amazing, I love everything about it. Olivia Newton-John & John Travolta are dynamite together. All the cast is perfect. The soundtrack is fantastic. Definitely Grease is the word and the best movie musical of all time. Buy it, It worths every single penny & more. Grease forever !!
2018-03-30
4. Amazing - I’m now and still think Grease is the best movie ever!! It’s a bit obsessive but I’m not exaggerating, I seriously watch this movie at least once a week. Sorry not sorry. John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John are amazing! All of the pink Ladies( especially Frenchie) give me laughs every time. Putsie, Doody, And Sunny are such goofs and even Finicky can make me laugh. Every single cast member makes the movie fantastic! I couldn’t imagine a different cast.

5. The ultimate high school classic of its day - There is no question as to the reason why Grease was such a blockbuster hit. It was fun, it touched on all sorts of high school experiences shared by millions, it was funny, it had great tunes and great dance numbers, and there was great chemistry all round. Unlike the broadway version, it avoids the northern and eastern toughness, focusing on more of a California middle-class style of innocense and playfulness. Frankly, I think everyone should own a copy and watch it now and then. Life is not always very easy and the daily stresses can be a bit much. An annual viewing of Grease can tone things down and revive the viewer's sense of fun. I should mention that this gentle and fun sense of nostalgia is truly timeless. It was a big deal with Disney theme parks ('s hometown USA - the nostalgia of Walt Disney's generation) and every successive generation can identify with it to some degree. This movie brings all of this together and is set at just the right time – during the boom days before the end of Camelot.

6. AWESOME BEST MOVIE EVERR!!! - Im and most people my age aren't really into old movies but honestly even the new generation will freakin love this movie i saw it when i was younger and i could watch it right after it finishs i know every lyric in all the song and the cast chemistry and songs and plot is just amazing and realistic when people ask me whats my favorite movie there always kinda shocked that i say grease since they'd expect id say the fault in our stars or something though thats a good movie too but i love grease ughh!!!!

1. NOT EVEN REMOTLY FUNNY - This movie needs to change it's rating. There is no way that it is PG. It's borderline rated R. There are a ton of sexual innuendo's. The funniest part of this movie was the trailer. Once you've seen it you've seen the funny parts of the movie. Save your money and move on to a better written comedy.

2. Smart, original, hailrious and bitter entertaining - Airplane isn't just the greatest comedies ever made, airplane is a comedy that dosen't follow cliches, dumb stupid fart jokes or any other themes that other comedy films present. I enjoyed this movie very much and iam very likely that i will see this movie more than a hunderd times because upon the first viewing this movie is hysterical, funny, hailrious and plays with the genre a little bit, don't get me wrong this is a spoof of other worldy disaster movies that dosen't tell any fart jokes or any immature every five seconds, Aiprlane tells the jokes and slapjacks by visuals and tells that really well and presented like in planes unaturtal events will happen on planes no matter how big or tragic it's still only a motion picture. The movie follows traumatized vitenam hero Ted Striker (Robert Hays), after suffering from the deep and horrible days of world war and dealing with a rocky relationship with Elaine Dickinson (Julie Hagerty) who just wants to live her life without Ted because Ted is never actually never with her alot and Elaine wants to get away from Ted in order to start a new fresh life in Chicago. Ted dosen't agree with her going to Chicago so he take his own personal matters into his own hands and trying to get back Elaine, suddenly the plane's passengers gets poisoned from the raw fish which sets two co-pliots dead, so it takes Ted from depression and misery into driving the plane to save the sick passengers to safety. Airplane is thrilly entertaining, hailrious and treats the spoof genre right without making immature jokes every five seconds it's that 's color style movies that have slapjack comedy in them and this movie succeds at being a entertaining laugh-out loud comedy that supports any type of character that are presented in the movie. I highly recommend Airplane! it's a movie with a lot of hailrious momments and flaws that are not bad for a slapjack movie and this movie is definitley for you.
2020-08-14
3. Best. Movie. Ever! - What else can I say? If you don't like this movie you are mentally deficient. To the guy who suggested Elaine was smoking a joint in that cockpit; I suggest you put down your pipe. Not everyone that smokes something, smokes weed. Also, the joke is you smoke a cigarette after sex, not weed. This scene was right after she had to re inflate the Auto-Pilot with the manual inflate tube located just below the belt line. If you watch the scene again, it wouldn't make sense if it was anything but a cigarette.
2016-10-09
4. The Background - While this movie is plenty funny on its own, if you watch the disaster movies it is spoofing, many of the quirks and gags in the movie make more sense. Back in the ‘s, when you still had to go to a theater to see a movie and only had one or two channels on your TV there were a series of hit movies: Airport (), Airport , Airport ’, The Concord...Airport ’. Airplane spoofs them all.
2014-08-12
5. LOLZ!!!! - This is my favourite movie thus far, mainly because of the outrageous, yet satirical, humour. I almost died. And liked it! P.S. Reviewer , I'm not serious, and don't call me Shirley! PSS: for the bottom reviewers, if u hate the movie, then why did you review it, YA TUTSI FRUITS HATERS!

6. For Parents with Pre-Teens - After countless family movie nights filled with computer animation, this was our choice for the weekend. Our kids (boy, and girl, ) loved the slapstick puns throughout. The only two things that parents will want to remembers is that when the plane is diving down and people are panicking a three second shot of jiggling boobs appear. My daughter said "Yuck" and my boy stared at me briefly and then went right back to the movie. If I had remembered, I would have just skipped that second scene. Also, there are sexual references to a blow job when one of the characters has to manually inflate the auto-pilot dummy…where else? in the tube carefully located at the crotch. In all, my kids watched every second and laughed throughout. Definitely a hit.

7. Best Laughs Ever...!!! - Please disregard the poster below. They're the kind of people who believe classic movies should be remade for a new generation. This film is for everyone who needs a reason to laugh or smile. That's more than just wishing for the "good old days". If lucky, the poster will be around long enough in life to realize just how precious some old films are...WITHOUT A DAMNED remake...!!!

8. For people born after s - This movie may be a new thing back then,but definitely not a good thing now.All of the stuffs in the movie are all too old to be funny.Besides,the comedian acting is beyond awful and weird.The vibe is just awkward.
Maybe this one is for somebody who is reminiscing his childhood memory,but this is abso-freaking-lutely not for our young ppls.
For people born after s,i am here warning you:Not to watch this,you will be regret.(Just think this way:Do you find your parents funny?Do you love their jokes?)
Caution:Steer away from it.

1. THE BEST MOVIE IN THE UNIVERSE! - This movie is definitely five stars it is the best Steven Spielberg movie ever created! It is so funny when he says “Snakes why did it have to be snakes!” Classic! Love the part with the mummies and the part where he drives that truck! I love the music to! I even have it on a record I love the music that much!

2. What makes this great - I love old serials and when they made this, they did something loyal to serials, every stunt is humanly possible and doesn’t violate the laws of physics. This was forgotten in all the sequels, starting with cars jumping off tracks, flying over a large gap, then landing on tracks - to the moronic refrigerator .

3. Why does it have to be... lizards? - Just watched the preview.: "Why do they have to be snakes". They're not Indy, they are legless lizards. Why would they use legless lizards? I know this is considered a classic but I hate when movies do stuff like this. Totally takes me out of my momentary suspension of disbelief.

4. PURE FUN. - There are some movies that are just so much fun to watch. Raiders of the Lost Ark is definitely one of them. Everything about this movie is just fantastic. It’s perfect! There’s nothing wrong with it! The acting, the dialogue, the music... if you haven’t seen this movie yet and you’re looking for something to do Saturday night, do yourself a favor and watch Raiders of the Lost Ark.

5. I LOVE THIS MOVIE!!!!!! - Grab your popcorn, turn down the lights, and get ready for... Raiders of the Lost Ark!
minutes of sheer cinematic brilliance: Harrison Ford’s acting, John Williams’s music, Steven Spielberg’s directing, Lawrence Kasdan’s script... hell, even the visual effects are astounding, and it’s ! This is one of the best films of the s. You want fun? Well, you got it!

6. This movie is great - This movie is great, fun, exciting, entertaining, action packed, adventure, and awesome. I love this movie so much. I love all of the characters in this movie. I love Harrison Ford as the hero Indiana Jones, and Marry in this movie together. I love Harrison Ford in any movie he is in. Harrison Ford is a great actor. Harrison Ford is one of my all time favorite actors ever. It is one of my all time favorite movies ever.
2017-01-30
7. Indiana Jones is Non-Stop Awesome - Raiders is a very amazing movie from start to finish. It's the best in the trilogy. I don't know if I like Harrison Ford as Han Solo better than Indy or Indy over Han Solo. But Harrison and the cast did a marvelous job! I recommend you buy this movie and I can't wait for Indiana Jones coming in ! /

8. Great flick, but... - Good selection of movies, iTunes people! But $. to buy this movie??? iTunes, iTunes, iTunes...stop raping your customers! But I suppose since iTunes has monopolized music, movies, and all of the apps of the billion or so customers of the iPad, iPhone, and any other invention with an "i" at the beginning of it, you can rape whomever you like!
Thanks iTunes! It's apparent you are just another $Billion(s) company that never gives back to its customers. "The business of America, is business", is alive and thriving!
Shame on iTunes!

1. An American classic - I finally purchased and watched this and realize why it’s so beloved. It’s enjoyable, still looks great, and the performances are top notch. An interesting character study of two New Yorkers trying to make their way through the world and relationships that aren’t right for them. So many classic looks and lines but also an unfortunately racist caricature performed by Mickey Rooney. Overall it’s a can’t miss piece of American cinema that inspired audiences, filmmakers, and American culture for decades.
2020-10-24
2. Wonderful theme but it’s for the wrong film. - My family and I were not excepting what we saw in this supposedly great movie. Ms Hepburn plays a prostitute who ran out on her husband and Mr Sheppard plays a writer who’s also a prostitute who’s in an affair with a married woman. Drinking, too much partying, a strip club... We had to stop, it was getting to risqué and uncomfortable. Moon River was and is wonderful, but it was for the wrong film. If the theme is famous, shouldn’t the film be left out? But then, Hollywood was never one for morals. If you have children, then I’d advise not to watch this. But please don’t judge Ms Hepburn by this horrible film. Try watching My Fair Lady or better yet, Roman Holliday or Sabrina.
2019-04-27
3. Just Beautiful - No one comes close to her or ever will. One can only try to be like her in grace, beauty, a heart full of love and caring spreading to where ever it is needed. If you were to look into those magnificent eyes you could feel the magic of her spirit lift you right up and out of your soul in pure happiness, love and joy, for that was Audrey Hepburn...
2018-06-03
4. Cat the Cat - This movie isn't just for girls. I, as a year old male, loved this classic film. It is a perfect mix of romance and drama rolled into a well written script. Audrey Hepburn will always be a treasure to the world. She may be gone but sure will not be forgotten. Rest high, you spectacular gem. Thank you for the wonderful legacy you left behind.
2015-04-05
5. This movie has something special about it - Okay, so maybe it's not the best storyline. And, no it's not based off the book I heard. But, it's a sweet charming story none the less. I love the dynamic of Holly, Paul and Cat, finding love and each other. The ending always makes me tear up. Because she throws cat out, and then she rescues him. And Paul, Holly, and cat it is assumed live happily together as a family. Reminds me how much I love the people close to me and my pets. It's charm reminds me of coal turning into a diamond.
2013-11-15
6. It's Like A Fairytale! - Although the plot line is a very used one, they put a fresh modern spin on the whole thing. Audrey really did a great job developing her character, Holly. She put the whole movie in her own words. The ending is a very fairytail-ish one. If you like it I suggest Cinderella, Annie, Sleeping Beauty, etc.
2013-03-03
7. AMAZING - This movie changed my life. Before seeing it, I'd always heard of it, and LOVED Audrey Hepburn so I gave it a try. I'm so glad I did, because to this day I adore it. Not only is it glamorous, but it oozes cool and chicness. It has inspired millions, and I claim to be one of the inspired. I belive that this film has truly put Ms. Hepburn on the map, to show audiences to all her great works. There's something fresh and appealing about Ms. Golightly, something fizzy, giggly, marvelously insecure about her. Of ALL my movie purchases, this is one I never ever regret amd enjoy viewing each and every time.
2011-06-18
8. Overrated - This is one of those movies that we have been brainwashed by super-sophisticated Hollywood reviewers to believe was great. It has a certain quality, an over-the-top artsiness that works okay on the live stage. But on the big screen it just comes across as a bunch of heavy drinkers in not-very-believable roles. Hepburn is wonderful though, as always.

2. Why Did the Color Change? - I bought this movie last year, and the picture looked amazing! However, the color grade has suddenly changed. The final duel now has a gross green and yellow look, when the colors looked natural just a year ago. The skin tone is totally off, and its clear they swapped out the digital file with a new one. Why make this change? From what I can tell by looking up older clips, the original film in didnt look this way. A modern film grade on a classic film makes no sense. Please restore it. Sergio Leones vision should be respected.
2021-03-24
3. Mostly great - This is the Sergio classic. The civil war junk in the middle (in which desert did they have a major Civil War battle - I forget) could easily have been cut, but what you want is Eastwood, Wallach, they yodeling and the trumpet. Screen accurate serapes are available on the get, as are bolero hats, cheap whiskey and skinny little cigars. Stock up and have fun.

4. Greatest western movie of all time - I hate western movies. But this movie is just simply one of the absolute best epic movies of all time, regardless of its genre. Every single aspect is just perfect: story, action, acting, music, setting, historical accuracy, etc. Even in , this western is unmatched.
2017-05-30
5. Not a review, just a plea - No need to review a classic like this....just look up at all the tomatoes. But PLEASE PLEASE make whatever royalty deal you need to do, to LET US BUY THIS...renting is fine for an unproven product, but an established classic like this, i think we all can agree it's a safe bet. PLease let us purchase this!!
2015-04-25
6. Great Movie - This is one of my favorite movies, but it is hard for me to understand why it is only available to rent. I truly wish iTunes had a separate section for movies to buy and a separate one for movies to rent. I cannot think of anything more frustrating than clicking on a movie I'd enjoy buying to find out it's only available to rent. And I have no plans to waste my money renting movies.

1. Great Movie - I've been wathing this movie ever since I was about - years old. I have never stopped loving it. The songs are written by the same brother-duo that Walt Disney befriended and used to write the songs for his timeless classics such as Winnie the Pooh - Richard and Robert Sherman. The music is fantastic and the storyline is classic. What is also interesting is that the writer of Charlotte's Web, E.B. White, was alive at the time of the release in . I wonder if he saw his classic book come to life in the movie? White would die - years later. If I was him, I would be pleased with it. The real-life version starring Dakota Fanning is more to the story-line though. THANKS!

2. Worst movie ever! - let me just get this strait. This is the worst movie ever! it totally ruins the wonderful book. The book is a sweet, sad tale of the relationship between a girl and her pet pig. this movie is just another money-maker for disney, with out the hertwarming qulity of the real story. save your money and buy the book insted!
2008-02-17
3. Some Movie - As far as animation it is a typical Hanna-Barbera production that at times is awkward and uninspired. But as far as heart the movie is a winner. The actors are well cast and their performances bring out emotions that the animation cannot. The tunes are catchy, often times including the voice of the all-too-often forgotten harpsichord, and if you aren’t careful they will be stuck in your head for hours. “Sometimes when somebody loves you, miracles somehow appear…”
2007-10-18
4. Goose - I love this movie! It is an all time classic! Even though it is animated it is just as good as some non-animated films such as the original Posioden, original King Kong and the masterpiece the Ten Commandments. I'm not saying that this film is better then the ones listed, I'm saying that this movie matches those movies on a children's level. oh by the way: my fave character is the goose Flibertyibertygibbit!
2007-04-21
5. Wiiillbur! - I remember seeing this for the first time in Kindergarten and I loved it. It's truly a classic animated movie from the past. The characters are all interesting and the actors portray them all very greatly. It's heartwarming and tear-jerking at the same time and is a must have for all generations.

1. Just not that compelling anymore - I know this movie is a classic and that Hitchcock is well respected for his accomplishments in film. BUT, I just couldn’t get through this film. It’s nearly entirely dialogue based, to the point where you are essentially watching a play. That’s all well and good, but I look to films for entertainment and for new ideas, and this film doesn’t offer them. I know I know, it’s from the ’s and film styles were different back then, as were the expectations. But, today, these expectations have shifted dramatically and in a way I’ve been spoiled by modern storytelling and all that it offers. This film is a classic in the way that The Odyssey or Crime & Punishment are classics. They’re well respected novels, and deservedly so, but they’ll also probably put you to sleep.
2016-02-12
2. Wow. Just...Wow - This film has won the title of my favorite movie EVER! I loved every second of it! Alfred Hitchcock found an incredibly creative way to tell this storyline. Cary Grant was amazing (as always), along with every single one of the other actors. Each actor played their character so convincingly. Add that to fun twists and turns (I never thought the movie would end the way it did!), great settings, and exciting music, and you have one of the best films of all time. I just wish I could give this movie more than just five stars...

3. My Favorite Hitchcock Film - North by Northwest is one of those powerful caper/heist films of the 's that you can't miss. Cary Grant and Eva Marie Saint act beautifully together, and the suspenseful red herrings and mysterious twists and turns are enough to hook anyone in. Instead of using extreme violence or super- technology, North by Northwest employs snappy dialogue and a creative plot line to attain its status as one of Hitchcock's best romantic/comedic thrillers.
2013-02-23
4. North by Northwest - North by Northwest predated the James Bond franchise and that's significant because it was one of the first great non-stop thrillers — non nonstop in the James Bond action way, but non stop in the sense that it moved, from location to location, which is a great part of the Bond films. Also unlike James Bond, the star of the film, Cary Grant, does not play a spy, he's just misidentified as one. And that fact sends him on the run form New York, where he is an advertising executive to Chicago and ultimately to the thrilling climax at Mount Rushmore. The movie came out in , culminating director Alfred Hitchcock's finest decade, a period of time in which he also released Rear Window, To Catch a Thief (also with Grant), Strangers on a Train, and Vertigo, among others. North by Northwest was the antithesis of Rear Window, a movie that took place within a single apartment complex and courtyard. Hitchcock films of the s were not without their range. As Roger Thornhill, Grant, is in constant motion to clear his name and confirm his identity. Again, not Daniel Craig constant motion, but you understand. Hitchock often utilized everyman type of characters in extraordinary circumstances. It works here, especially in the iconic scene in which Thornhill is pursued by a crop-duster.

5. THE PERFECT MOVIE - Cart Grant, sexy Eva Marie Saint, James Mason and Mount Rushmore. What more could you ask for? This is without a doubt THE Perfect movie. It has every thing a movie fan could ask for. I watch this movie every time it's shown on TCM and have never gotten tired of it. In fact, TCM should show it more often. If there is anybody out there who hasn't seen North by Northwest, I feel sorry for them. It just makes you smile and feel good. There's only a hand full of movies with perfect casts (Rebecca, Wuthering Heights, and Laura) just to name a few, and North by Northwest is one of them. If North by Northwest comes on and you are feeling down, see this movie. By the end of the movie, you'l feel better in no time!

6. One of my personally top movies - This is in my opinion Hitchcocks best film and one of the greatest films of all time. Suspense, humor, drama, action, this movie has it all.
I wish I was a better writer to give this movie is just dues, but trust me, watch it and you will see just how amazing a movie this is.
2012-11-01
7. I'm and I love it! - I'm a huge Hitchcock fan. I know he is usually a favorite of our parents and grandparents generations but in films it's true to say they don't make them like they use to. This film is considered Action & Adventure and for it's the most action packed film of it's day. However, by today's standards it wouldn't be.... meaning it actually has a story line and doesn't revolve around beautifully fake women and over the top explosions (thank you Michael Bay for ruining the movie going experience.) But it's truly a great film and if you like older movies you will enjoy this for sure!

8. Great Movie…but p version won't download - And iTunes Customer Service has been a nightmare to deal with. They've shuffled me between a bunch of customer service reps, tried to hand me off to AppleCare (???) and then just changed my password without my permission (that's the same password that controls iMessage, FaceTime, etc.) and emailed me to say they'd changed it AFTER the fact. Just a heaping pile of ineptitude so far.

1. Good movie but, - when I saw this movie decades ago, I had no idea that the director was and still is a convicted child molester, not to mention fugitive from justice. I'm aware of his past, survivor of the Nazi Holocaust, widower and father of an unborn child both murdered by psychopaths, but I cannot and will not contribute to his 'fortune' by purchasing this movie. For the life of me I cannot understand how an unrepentant child rapist has avoided capture for so many years and how so many people give him a 'pass' and continue to work with him, knowing what he has admitted to and was convicted of.

2. Best screenplay ever. - An extraordinary movie. Jack Nicholson at his absolute best. Faye Dunaway at her absolute best. John Huston - the most inspired and despicable casting ever. An elegant score. The best use of LA as a set - beautiful and ugly, evil and seductive. God, I love this movie. Polanski never equaled it. Not even close. This is what Raymond Chandler wanted to write but never did.
2012-08-18
3. The is Classic Film Noir - Whatever we may think about Roman Polanski's character , morals , decency, etc ., there is little dispute amongst those who truly know film as craft , that this movie is Film Noir of the highest order. It is THEE film in that genre against which all other films of that ilk must be measured. It is , quite simply, a masterpiece.
2011-07-23
4. Not the Correct Aspect Ratio - The movie itself deserves five stars and is one of the most stylish, gripping, intelligent and mature films ever made. And not that an iPhone -- or an iPad or laptop for that matter -- is the best way to view John Alonzo's elegant cinematography, but iTunes has made things worse by fitting a film shot at a .: aspect ratio into a x frame, not by letterboxing the top & bottom as they should have done, but by cutting off the left and right sides. I wish I'd known that before buying this film on iTunes.
2010-07-29
5. One of the classics - This is one of the classics. Anyone who considers themself to be a movie buff should at least see this one once. I discovered this movie a few years back and I find myself watching it any time that i see it on. I would put this movie on the same shelf as classics like the Godfather or The Shawshank Redemption. If you like a good crime suspense thriller with one of the original twist endings this movie is for you!!!!
2010-03-16
6. One of the all-time great movies - I've watched this movie maybe dozen times, and each time, I notice something new. To me, it's practically flawless. If you are a fan of the old film noir mysteries and dramas, you'll also enjoy this. There are many things going on here all at once, but Polanski keeps it all clear and never lets the film bog down. I'd put Chinatown in the top , maybe top , on my list of greatest movies of all time.
2009-09-26
7. Chinatown - This movie was slow moving, dragged out, and it was just another movie putting men on a pedistal while they abused their women. The women are all powerless. One gets hit in the eye by her husband and has a huge bruise, another gets slapped around repeatedly by Jack Nickleson, We learn she was rapped by her father, thus her daughter is her sister. She get's shot in the end by the cop working for her dad. All the women just take it. Would not recommend this movie to anywone!!
2009-08-13
8. Chinatown - After I saw this movie, I knew this would be within my top thirty best movies of all time list. Roman Polanski was indeed going through many tough obstacles within this time period of his life (the brutal inhuman murder of his wife Sharon Tate). Jack Nicholson's performance was indeed one of the best I've ever seen (best performance behind One Flew the Cooko's Nest). The screenplay was what really stole the movie from my perspective, it was flawless. The movie from my perspective expresses an outrage against corruption in anything within authority. Even though I fairly new of Roman Polanki's carrer I've seen many excellent films from his lengthy carrer (Rosemary's Baby, The Ninth Gate, The Pianist & Frantic), this however ranks to surpass all those films, a masterpiece.
