Another vote of confidence from me. American Movie is the most engrossing documentary I've ever seen. I would gladly have watched another 2 hours of Mark and Mike and uncle Bill. These three guys are...

I haven't seen the DVD yet but contrary to what many critics (real or imagined) have said, I thought it was one of the best movies of 1999. It's an incredibly beautiful, haunting movie. Well worth it.

I'm in the market for a new DVD player, and I wonder what ONLINE retailers other DVD Talk members can recommend.

Thanks!

I liked the movie, too, but thought that the acting (especially by the black guy and the woman doctor) were way over the top and took away from the movie.

A complete waste of time as far as the story is concerned. I thought the sound design was impressive, though. Looks like a nice DVD. I just wish studios would lavish the same kind of attention on...

Toyzz, I agree, John Sayles' commentary is one of the best I've heard. It's to the point, always interesting, and there's no fluff. Exactly what I had expected from a writer/director of his stature....

Runngdog, yes, I think it's worth $10. I watched the movie last week and thought it was fun. Very campy, especially the acting (or over-acting). I didn't find it to be all that suspenseful but if you...

I thoroughly enjoyed the movie. Definitely one the better horror flicks of the 90's. The Roberta Bird commentary was dull but the once with the writer and Jeffrey Jones was quite entertaining and...

Jad, I watched Limbo last night, and I agree with you 100%. I was taken aback by the ending but it's the only way to end to the story that makes sense. I thought the character development and acting...

I thought it fell in the same category as The Pantom Menace and Double Jeopardy: bad, bad, bad.

I agree with Heather, though: A different writer and director would have made a big difference.

I just watched Rushmore last night and was very disappointed in the movie. It was pleasant but forgettable. I can see some superficial similarities between it and Election but I found Election to be...

I just watched the Canadian edition of eXistenZ and loved it. I thought the movie was very, very good--intriguing story (and a really unexpected twist at the ending) and great acting, especially by...

I just watched The Red Violin, and I would rank it as one of the best movies of 1999. A tremendously ambitious movie spanning 3 centuries, it is both stirring and sad. The narrative structure was...

Watched The Last Broadcast last night. Enjoyed it but it's not in the same league as Blair Witch Project which I consider one of the top 5 movies of the year. The DVD itself is cool, with three...

dfjkl,

Like you, I thought Stalingrad was an excellent movie. Unfortunately, most people have never heard of it, and to be honest, the DVD isn't the best transfer I've ever seen. Still, the images...

Hi,

Has anybody seen Hi-Lo Country with Woody Harrelson? It's featured at 800.com for $12.94 and I thought I might give it a try. The plot sounds very interesting.

Thanks!
