Amazon.com essential video

Not an ideal choice for younger kids, this hip and violent animated feature from Disney was nevertheless a huge smash in theaters and on video, and it continues to enjoy life in an acclaimed Broadway production. The story finds a lion cub, son of a king, sent into exile after his father is sabotaged by a rivalrous uncle. The little hero finds his way into the "circle of life" with some new friends and eventually comes back to reclaim his proper place. Characters are very strong, vocal performances by the likes of Jeremy Irons, Nathan Lane, and Whoopi Goldberg are terrific, the jokes are aimed as much (if not more) at adults than kids, the animation is sometimes breathtaking, and the music is more palatable than in many Disney features. But be cautious: this is too intense for the Rugrat crowd. --Tom Keogh

How good-looking is the DVD restoration of Disney's popular animated film? Take a look at the serviceable but dull film clips incorporated in the plethora of extras and compare them to the vivid gorgeousness of the film presentation. This "special edition" also adds a 90-second song ("Morning Report") that originated in the lavish stage musical. To Disney's credit, the original theatrical version is also included, both restored and featuring two 5.1 soundtracks: Dolby Digital and a new Disney Enhanced Home Theater Mix, which does sound brighter. As with the Disney Platinum line, everything is thrown into the discs, except an outsider's voice (the rah-rahs of Disney grow tiresome at times). The excellent commentary from the directors and producer, originally on the laser disc, is hidden under the audio set-up menu.

The second disc is organized by 20-minute-ish "journeys" tackling the elements of story, music, et cetera, including good background on the awkward Shakespearean origins at Disney where it was referred as "Bamlet." The most interesting journey follows the landmark stage production, and the kids should be transfixed by shots of the real African wildlife in the animal journey. Three deleted segments are real curios, including an opening lyric for "Hakuna Matata." Most set-top DVD games are usually pretty thin (DVD-ROM is where it's at), but the Safari game is an exception--the kids should love the roaring animals (in 5.1 Surround, no less). One serious demerit goes to the needless and complicated second navigation system that is listed by continent, but just shows the same features reordered. --Doug Thomas

Description

Disney's THE LION KING SPECIAL EDITION features an all-new song, "Morning Report," and never-before-seen animation, giving you even more of this award-winning masterpiece -- the greatest animated adventure of all time. An unforgettable story, breathtaking animation, beloved characters, and Academy Award(R)-winning music (Best Original Score, 1994; Best Song, "Can You Feel The Love Tonight") set the stage for the adventures of Simba, the feisty lion cub who "just can't wait to be king." But his envious Uncle Scar has plans for his own ascent to the throne, and he forces Simba's exile from the kingdom. Alone and adrift, Simba soon joins the escapades of a hilarious meerkat named Timon and his warmhearted warthog pal, Pumbaa. Adopting their carefree lifestyle of "Hakuna Matata," Simba ignores his real responsibilities until he realizes his destiny and returns to the Pride Lands to claim his place in the "Circle of Life." Now extensively restored and remastered -- experience THE LION KING like never before, from its magnificent musical opening over breathtaking African vistas to its emotional climax. The all-star vocal talents -- including Matthew Broderick, Jeremy Irons, Nathan Lane, and Ernie Sabella -- rip-roaring comedy, and uplifting messages of courage, loyalty, and hope make this timeless tale entertainment for all ages.

the lion king.......2007-05-21

propably one of the best animated motion pictures ever. I hated the addition of the new song, but I believe that was directed towards the younger audiences. Many extras, most i liked to watch

A great Disney movie, for kids AND adults!.......2007-05-12

This is a great story and it's told with very good music intertwined with the dialogue. "The Lion King" and other Disney animated films are good entertainment keeping me occupied on my daily treadmill walks. I find that I enjoy them as much as I did when I was a child.

Excellent Family movie!!.......2007-05-09

I have a 6 and a 2 year old. They love this movie. I've been looking all over trying to locate it for our movie library. The quality of this movie is awesome. The sound effects are great. I notice they've added a few more songs to the movie since it was first viewed in 1994. I was pleased to see that my two year old was not afraid of the hyenas. He thinks that scar is mean. Moreover, he insist on watching it every weekend.

The problem with this movie is the same problem I see in 90% of movies released by Disney. Although I seem to be the only person to notice this, most Disney movies are a beginning and an end with little to no substance in the middle. In this film for instance, Simba is your normal curious, happy and mischevious child just of course, he's a lion who is next in line to become the next king. His father is thrown off the side of a mountain killing him which causes Simba's problem. Led to believe he is the cause he runs into exile. Good way to start an animated Children's movie I think. About 7-10 minutes later he's grown and on his way to reclaim his place. Where the depth of the story should be is put into a short montage instead of showing his feelings and growing up and when he accepts his reponsability you never fully get a feeling of how hard it is for him. And how easily convinced he is to come back is lame in it self. Timone and Pumba are good characters to have an mixed with The Hiena's(however you spell that) make for really funny characters. But the story as most Disney movies sucks and is really just recycled from every other Disney movie. With exception of the Pirates Of The Carribean movies the company really has done nothing I see should give it half the hype it gets. And on a quick side note. Am I the only one who feels like Disney only spits out these movies to create the endless stream of merchindise that makes the weakest of characers a god in the Disney world. I mean, you can buy an action figure of the midget in the Pirate movies and making Snot Rod who appears in Cars for like 1.5 minutes in like 5 diffent toy car forms that I've seen. Disney Movies in General are nothing more than 85 minute long comercials for a slew of cloths, toys and other worthless collectables. The whole reason the Pirates of The Carribean was ever conceived was to advertise a a ride within Disney World. You can say movies like Dogma, Scarface and The Exorcist are evil. But none try to draw your worship and aww harder than Disney. In other words Disney is the real Devil and Watching Disney movies will damn you to HELL!!!-haha. (for real. watch if you want. but if people gonna dog my taste for being more racey I'm gonna spend that judgemental pendelum around and let you think about what could truly be a sin against God. Remember the 1st Commandment and see if Disney isn't trying to go against it with the way it attempts to pound these characters into your and your kid's head so much that it;s as if these movies, merchindise and mouse ears are the worlds greatest gifts to mankind as if Mickey Mouse is Jesus Christ himself reincarnated as a dirty f**kin' rat)

One of the better romantic comedies of the 1990s, this quirky love story stars Kevin Costner as washed-up golf pro Roy "Tin Cup" McAvoy, who has the singular misfortune of falling in love with the girlfriend (Rene Russo) of his arch rival (Don Johnson). Although he is inspired to re-ignite his golf career, challenge his opponent in the U.S. Open, and win the affection of the woman of his dreams, McAvoy has just one flaw: he's a show off when he should just focus on playing the game. Reunited with his Bull Durham writer-director Ron Shelton, Costner fits into his role like a favorite pair of shoes, and costar Cheech Marin scores a memorable scene-stealing comeback as McAvoy's best buddy, Romeo Posar. Mixing his love of sports with his flair for fresh, comedic dialogue, Shelton takes this enjoyable movie down unexpected detours (although some may find it a bit too long), and his characters are delightfully unpredictable. --Jeff Shannon

Description

An unreachable shot to the green. A hopeless romance. Driving-range pro Roy McAvoy can't resist an impossible challenge. Each is what he calls a defining moment. You define it. Or it defines you. With lady-killer charm and a game that can make par with garden tools, Kevin Costner rejoins Bull Durham filmmaker Ron Shelton for another funny tale of the games people play. For Costner's Roy, golf is a head-and heart-game. On both counts, that's where shrink Molly Griswold (Rene Russo) comes in. She's big city, Roy's small time, and he believes only the grandest of gestures can lure her away from a slick touring pro (Don Johnson) and earn her love. So Roy and his dutiful caddy (Cheech Marin) set out to do the impossible: win the U.S. Open. With laughs, clever battle-of-the-sexes banter and a handy way with a 7-iron, Tin Cup winningly defines the moment and contemporary romantic comedy DVD Features:

Not for real golfers.......2007-03-19

I bought this video for my husband - an avid golfer. This doesn't compare with the movies profiling the lives of Bobby Jones or Francis Ouimet.

for golf fans only.......2007-02-26

There's a nice soundtrack but otherwise not much to recommend. Costner is constantly obsessed with proving he can make the big shot. How can anyone sympathize or empathize with a compulsive jerk like this. If anything this movie must be about the pointlessness of golf itself.

Entertaining and enjoyable.......2007-02-25

With golf being as fun and popular as it is,it is great to see movies about golf being made. "Tin Cup" is a great addition to golf movies,and while it may not be "Happy Gilmore" or "Caddyshack",has a great plot and script that will keep its viewers entertained until the very end...

This movie begins with going into the life of Roy McAvoy (Kevin Costner). While Roy may be a talented golfer with a lot of good friends,there is one problem that lies within Roy. The problem? When Roy gets angry,Roy gets destructive. And,when Roy gets destructive,not only does he cause harm for himself,he causes harm for other people,at the same time--two things that have taken a negative effect on Roy's life.

But then,one day,things change. This is when Roy meets a shrink named Dr. Molly Griswold(Rene Russo),who is a nice person that is not only smart when it comes to the issue of golf,but who also ends up(unexpectdly and unplanned)winning the heart of Roy. For Roy,this seems like a great opportunity to find real and true love and to reform himself....yet here,Roy finds another problem. This problem:the fact that not only does Molly have a boyfriend,but the fact that her boyfriend is a man named David Simms(Don Johnson),another golfer who happens to be the archnemises of Roy McAvoy(for good reasons,I might add). From here,can Roy not only win the U.S. open,but be able to bring Molly over from being David's girlfriend to being his girlfriend? Only time will tell!!!

When it comes down to "Tin Cup",this film has a lot of high points going for it. Not only is the plot for this film both interesting and creative with a strong and well-paced script accompanying it,which helps bring this movie to life,the acting here is very strong as well. While Kevin Costner's performance of Roy McAvoy in this film may not be one of Costner's best performances (compared to Costner's performances in a lot of his other films,which include "JFK","Dragonfly","The Guardian",etc.),through his performance,Costner does an excellent job at bringing a lot of humor and drama into his performance as Roy McAvoy,which helps this film shape itself. Don Johnson,while he may not be one of America's finest actors,brings the personality of Sonny Crockett onscreen here (with a lot of originality,at the same time)with his perfomance of David Simms. At the same time,Rene Russo does a perfect job at allowing this movie to have chemistry:on its own,for her own character,and between Kevin Costner's performance of Roy McAvoy and Don Johnson's performance of David Simms. These elements here not only keep this film moving along in an intelligent manner,help bring the movie to life and allow this film's viewers to get to know who the characters of Roy,David,and Molly are as people. How can you go wrong there??!!!

As already mentioned by another reviewer,the ending for this film is a bit weird (while,at the same time,some of this film's script does come out too be rather odd for its plot,especially when taking look at other movies that are not only similiar to this film,but are of this film's own genre,as well). But,on top of all of that,with this film's script doing what every film script needs to do(be good and interesting,and take it's time at getting to the main points of the film)and providing a good and worthwhile script here,how can you go wrong with this film? With this film's positive elements,it becomes not only a good golf movie,but a good movie,on it's own.

Special feautures here include profiles for the main actors in this film (Kevin Costner,Rene Russo,Don Johnson,Cheech Marin,as well as director Ron Shelton),and a biography for this film (would have preferred to see a behind-the-scenes look into the making of this film,but with the biography of the film that is provided here having good information that gives one the kind of information about this film that a behind-the-scenes look would,I am not complaining).

Overall,an entertaining and enjoyable film with not only a good plot and scipt,but good acting,accompanied by a good cast of actors and a good director. Worth viewing for not only fans of golf,but all movie fans,in general.

Golfer's Dream.......2006-11-11

This is a great golf movie. Ignore the corny romance part of it. The music and settings are great. This is all about a good golfer, a loser in life, who knows he can make that shot over the water. You really have to be a golfer, and maybe a male golfer, to really appreciate what is going on in his mind. Everytime I watch this movie I can feel my adrenaline flow as I watch these great shots all ending in failure. What golfer has not been in this situation; I know I can make that shot and selecting idiocy over common sense.

One of the funniest movies ever made........2006-07-18

I'm so glad I bought this DVD; the more I watch it the funnier
it gets. Charming performances, witty dialogue, and a music score
to die for. (Roger Ebert's review available from imdb catches this
work just right.) Costner has never been more charming and disarming. Kevin and Rene have some sweet love scenes, nothing
like the searing stuff she did with Brosnan in Thomas Crown!
I never in my life could "get" golf, and now I am
watching the tournaments on TV. The lore of this film has passed
into the general culture, at least among golf people, and you will
laugh all the way through this delightfully quirky movie.

From a match made in heaven comes a movie spawned in hell! Young hotshot director Robert Rodriquez (El Mariachi, Desperado) teamed up with Pulp Fiction auteur Quentin Tarantino (offering his services as writer and co-star) to make this outrageous, no-holds-barred hybrid of high-octane crime and gruesome horror. QT plays Richard Gecko, a borderline psychopath who breaks his career-criminal brother, Seth (George Clooney), out of prison, after which they rob a bank and leave a trail of dead and wounded in their bloody wake. Then they hijack a mobile home driven by a former Baptist minister (Harvey Keitel) who quit the church after his wife's death and hit the road with his two children (played by Juliette Lewis and Ernest Liu). Heading to Mexico with their hostages, the infamous Gecko brothers arrive at the Titty Twister bar to rendezvous for a money drop, but they don't realize that they've just entered the nocturnal lair of a bloodthirsty gang of vampires! With not-so-subtle aplomb, Rodriguez and Tarantino shift into high gear with a nonstop parade of gore, gunfire, and pointy-fanged mayhem featuring Salma Hayek as a snake-charming dancer whose bite is much worse than her bark. If you're a fan of Tarantino's lyrical dialogue and pop-cultural wit, you'll have fun with the road-movie half of this supernatural horror-comedy, but if your taste runs more to exploding heads and eyeballs, sloppy entrails and morphing monsters, the second half provides a connoisseur's feast of gross-out excess. Bon appétit! --Jeff Shannon

Description

It's nonstop thrills when George Clooney (THE PERFECT STORM, THREE KINGS) and Quentin Tarantino (PULP FICTION) star as the Gecko brothers -- two dangerous outlaws on a wild crime spree! After kidnapping a father (Harvey Keitel -- U-571) and his two kids (including Juliette Lewis -- NATURAL BORN KILLERS), the Geckos head south to a seedy Mexican bar to hide out in safety. But when they face the bar's truly notorious clientele, they're forced to team up with their hostages in order to make it out alive!

Customer Reviews:

tarantino lover.......2007-05-28

The movie itself is five stars. I love it. The one star is for the lousy non-anamorphic transfer. All other Tarantino movies have been transfered in anamorphic except this one. WHY??

Psychos don't explode when sunlight hits them, I don't care how crazy they are!.......2007-05-27

I was lucky enough to see this masterpiece in the theaters without any prior knowledge of the madness to come. Flying blind into this movie is the best way to go if you can, it blew me away!
Before the opening credits roll, the movie starts in crazy fashion. Just a lazy afternoon at a country liquor store, where the locals are swapping tales. This quickly turns into a bloodbath with microwave popcorn popping from the flames of the scorched store clerk.
Quentin's signature is all over the first half of this film. Good action, witty dialogue, awesome character development. Clooney is perfect as the tough, cocky bank robber. Tarrantino plays his sex offender brother a little too well for comfort. As they're being hunted by the cops, the two kidnap a family and head for Mexico.
Once they're south of the border, Rodriguez takes the story's reins and turns everything upside down with a gruesome battle against zombie-vampires. It's just outrageous crazy fun! At the theater, I was so completely shocked by this drastic turn of events, I had trouble breathing. But my girlfriend at the time was plain irritated, she needed more normalcy to enjoy it, I guess.
The only movie I can remember having such a different second half would be Million Dollar Baby. From Dusk til Dawn didn't get the Oscar recognition like that movie, but it's a lot more fun! A must own for the fellas.

~I can't get enough of Seth Gecko!~.......2007-05-10

This is my all time favorite George Clooney movie. The action never seems to die in this movie. I loved George Clooney as Seth Gecko. You've gotta buy this movie if your a fan of George Clooney.

Possibly the BEST MOVIE EVER!.......2007-04-24

BEST MOVIE EVER????? How can I make such an outrageous claim? Simple.

1. Solid action tale of criminals and abductions...with the Quentin Tarnetino flavor.

2. Boobs. I'm talking to you guys...that's right! They end up at a strip clubs and you get to see all kinds of boobs! Just when this movie gets good...it gets better...everyone loves boobs!

3. VAMPIRES! Can this movie be any cooler????? First action, then boobs, now we get vampires and the biggest, baddest vampire fight you ever saw. The freakin strippers turn into freaking VAMPIRES! This great movie just keeps getting better! What more could you ask for!

As you can see from these three points...this quite possibly the greatest movie ever made. Thank you.

Yellowbeard, a comedy cast with the all-star comedians of the 1980s, is a unique, corny spoof on pirate films. Like a Mel Brooks movie, Yellowbeard's plot is a series of ridiculous events, á la Airplane, circulating around Yellowbeard's (Graham Chapman) discovery that he has an "intellectual" son. Brain versus brawn is the film's theme, as Yellowbeard is forced to take his kid on a booty-hunt, since the pirate's ex-wife, Betty (Madeline Kahn), tattooed the treasure map on their child's head. As the bumbling British, including Harvey "Blind" Pew (John Cleese) and Gilbert Murvin (Marty Feldman), sail The Royal Navy Frigate to trail Yellowbeard's ship, The Lady Edith, The Spanish Main, captained by El Nebuloso (Tommy Chong) and El Segundo (Cheech Marin) follows in close pursuit. Three ships in constant battle on the open seas make for multiple comedic situations reminiscent of Monty Python. Directed by Mel Damski (Charmed, Lois & Clark), Yellowbeard has a made-for-TV cheesiness, though the talent of the actors, not to mention its off-kilter British humor, rescues the film from utter stupidity. --Trinie Dalton

Description

For twelve years, Yellowbeard (Graham Chapman) has looted the Spanish Main, making men eat their lips and swallow their hearts. Caught and convicted -- for tax evasion! -- he's sentenced to 20 years in St. Victim's Prison for the Extremely Naughty. In a scheme to confiscate his fabulous treasure, the Royal Navy allows him to escape and follows him to the Spanish Main, where saucy tarts, lisping demigods and some awful puns and punishments await. Starring a who's who of comic cutups and cutthroats including Graham Chapman, Eric Idle, John Cleese, Cheech and Chong, Marty Feldman, Peter Cook, Madeline Kahn and more!!!

Customer Reviews:

Beware of 80's movie ratings!.......2007-06-18

Unfortunately, this is not a PG rating according to today's standards. I was very disappointed that during the second half of the movie they decided to throw in an island full of topless women. I chose not to finish the movie. Also, there are a number of references to rape, and even a couple of scenes where the act of rape is being implied. For some reason, it seems that many movies from the 80's had to throw in inappropriate 2 second blips of random nudity, and they were still able to slap a PG rating on the production.
If it weren't for my disappointment, due to the crudeness of the show, I think it would actually have been a fun movie. The acting was better than I had planned on (there are a bunch of classic actors in this), and there were some really funny scenes. Unfortunately, filth ruins a movie for me every time. If it weren't for the garbage in this movie I would have given it at least 3 stars.

My wife and I have been looking for this movie on DVD for years, and we are tickled that we finally found it. It is an ensemble cast of comedy characters from the 1970's; the Monty Python crew (shy of Terry Gilliam, Terry Jones, and Michael Palin), Cheech and Chong, and most of the cast of Young Frankenstein; Marty Feldman, Peter Boyle, Kenneth Mars, and Madeline Kahn ... and then there's Peter Cook, James Mason, and more.

A very under rated film -- although it is very silly and slapstick.

Carmen and Juni Cortez will soon find out that their favorite bedtime story, "The Spies Who Fell in Love," is really the story of their parents. So begins this affable fantasy, a James Bond adventure for wee ones with all the trimmings. When Dad and Mom (Antonio Banderas and Carla Gugino) mess up their first mission after coming out of retirement, their kids must come to the rescue, equipped with some cool gadgets. The Cortez family gets involved in a bizarre plot hatched by a Pee-wee Herman-type entertainer named Fegan Floop (a wonderfully hammy Alan Cumming) that's as giddy as it is ridiculous. Needless to say there is plenty of derring-do concerning long-lost uncles, goofy monsters, double agents, evil robots, look-alikes, and energized chases. Did we mention the gadgets? Although Banderas and Gugino make terrific impressions, the movie is carried (as it should be) by the younger Cortezes, winningly played by Alexa Vega and Daryl Sabara. Who would have thought an action/horror studio (Dimension) and writer-director Robert Rodriguez had this pleasing family film up their sleeves? Rodriquez (who produced with his wife Elizabeth Avellán) seemed to be mired in cheesy horror films but here breaks out by capitalizing on the talent that gave him instant status with his debut, El Mariachi (1992). Spy Kids has plenty of verve but never swerves into potty humor (OK, there is one good potty joke) or wicked gunplay. All 7-year-olds should have a film as fun as this in their movie-going lives. --Doug Thomas

Good movie for age appropiate children.......2005-09-29

Action packed and fun to watch. My kids loved it.

Great kids movie.......2005-09-25

This movie is full of action, adventure and creative characters without being violent and scary. My two boys loved it. It was loads of fun for my husband and I as well as there is plenty of comedy that transends generations. We have seen Spy Kids 2 as well but can't reccomend it as it contains more violence and the characters were pretty scary.

Cheech & Chong's first cannabis comedy is also their best, a souvenir from the more carefree days before "Just Say No," when people did not feel so defensive about inhaling. In 1978, the prevailing spirit was more like "Just Say Blow." Even New Yorker film critic Pauline Kael liked it (the movie, that is), adding that it was "an exploitation slapstick comedy, rather than a family picture, such as Blazing Saddles or High Anxiety--which means that it's dirtier, wilder, and sillier." The story has to do with bumbling potheads Cheech & Chong searching for primo bud, while being tailed by a team of inept law-enforcement officers, led by Sgt. Stedenko (Stacy Keach). Sample dialogue: When a cop pulls them over to ask if they are any illegal substances in his vehicle, Cheech replies: "Not any more, man." Up in Smoke is an irresistibly silly and charming movie that--despite, or perhaps because of, the national furor over drug use--plays today like a relic from a bygone era, a sweeter, more open, more innocent period in our history. --Jim Emerson

This is one of those movies you can watch and enjoy over and over.

all is great but this movie i haven't got it yet .... but all the other movies are great. amazon is great.

A must have!!!.......2006-10-23

One of the funniest movies ever made. I'm still using references from this movie to this day. The real sad thing is, with the PC world we live in today, we may never see another movie like it.

Cheech & Chong's first movie goes out with a bang.......2006-05-23

Cheech & Chong already had a bunch of albums under their belts since 1971, so they weren't exactly new when Up in Smoke hit the theaters in September, 1978. I had often seen this movie on network TV, unfortunately, it was so drastically butchered because they had to censor a lot, not to mention all the commercials. But of course I had to get this movie on VHS or DVD. I ended up with the DVD, which has some bonus features, including a bunch of unused clips, and even audio commentary from Lou Adler and Cheech Marin about the movie, and I actually got some useful info from them about the movie, and some trivia along with it (like the VW Beetle Tommy Chong was driving with the Rolls Royce radiator strapped on the front near the beginning of the film actually belonged to Jack Nicholson).

It seemed only natural Lou Adler would direct this film, after all, the Cheech & Chong albums were produced by Adler (and released on his Ode label, which included various music acts like Carole King and the psychedelic band Spirit). And it's a fantastic film full of laughs. Much of what I want to say I can't say here because it won't get posted (because of the content), but it's basically two hippies trying to escape the law, get deported to Mexico, return to America in a van made of marijuana, and enter a rock band contest. Speaking of which, there is this scene during the "Rock Fight" (where these punk rock bands play) there was this one singer who so badly wanted to be Mick Jagger, it about hurts, and the audience started throwing beer cans at him (and the music sounded like a Stones ripoff). But of course, at the end was Cheech & Chong performing "Earache My Eye" (as Alice Bowie in this movie). This cut originally appeared on their Wedding Album (1974), but of course it's only the musical part that was included on this film. And speaking of the music, while Saturday Night Fever capitilized on the disco craze, Up in Smoke seemed to pick up on the punk rock craze. Both styles of music came out around the same time (though disco was much more popular in America because it was the moneymaker) and pretty much brought an end to the prog rock and psychedelia that came before it. What's really strange is Cheech Marin and Tommy Chong were quite a bit older than the real musicians involved in the punk rock scene.

Up in Smoke is truly a great movie, and so is its following, Cheech & Chong's Next Movie, so make sure you get both.

Best Movie Ever.......2006-03-09

I love this movie. This has got to be one of my all-time favorites. It's hilariously funny and every time I watch it I get this fuzzy feeling inside and it makes me go 'Squee!'

The adventures of pint-sized secret agents Juni and Carmen Cortes (Daryl Sabara and Alexa Vega) continue. As Spy Kids 3-D: Game Over opens, Juni has left the spy agency and launched a career as a private detective--but when he learns that his sister Carmen has disappeared into a nefarious multi-user computer game, he agrees to go in after her, with the assistance of his grandfather (Ricardo Montalban). Three-dimensional special effects launch us into a topsy-turvy world of battling robots, souped-up motorcycle races, frogs on pogo sticks, surfing on hot lava, and much, much more. The story is even more incoherent than an actual computer game--but the movie storms along, driven by writer/director/editor/everything-else Robert Rodriguez's sheer visual enthusiasm. Featuring Sylvester Stallone, Antonio Banderas, Carla Gugino, and everyone else who appeared in the first two Spy Kids movies. --Bret Fetzer

best kids action movie ever!.......2007-03-07

This has got to be the best kids action movie ever! I rented this movie
for a week and watched it 5 times and loved it. Believe me when you see this you are going to want to buy this like me! I have seen every one
except spy kids 2 {Island of Lost Dreams}. The basic outline of Spy Kids
Game Over is Carmon Cortez {Alexa Vega} gets stuck in a virtual reality
game trying to turn it off {to find out why you will need to watch it} and
Juni Cortez {Daryl Sabara} Must fight his way through the levels to save his sister and shut down the game at the same time. If he fails his mission,GAME OVER! I hope you will enjoy the dvd like I did!

This delightful sequel to Spy Kids demonstrates once again writer-director Robert Rodriguez's remarkable gift for wild invention. Carmen and Juni Cortez (Alexa Vega and Daryl Sabara) are now regular operatives for a spy agency, but a couple of rival spy kids are making their lives difficult. When an important gadget gets stolen, Juni gets blamed and loses his job--but Carmen hacks into the agency computer, reinstates him, and sends them off on a high-security mission to a mysterious island to clear the boy's name. The pace is zippy, every situation is crammed with dazzling eye-candy, and the cast is great--Antonio Banderas and Carla Gugino return as the kids' parents, Steve Buscemi plays a crackpot scientist, and Ricardo Montalban comes in as the kids' grandfather. Fans of the classic Sinbad adventure movies will particularly enjoy the elaborate creatures that Carmen and Juni battle on the island. Pure fun. --Bret Fetzer

I spy with my blue eye..........2007-06-16

Pint-sized OSS Junior agents, sister and brother Carmen (Alexa Vega) and Juni (Daryl Sabara) Cortez, are back for another spirited adventure in Spy Kids 2. Their newest and most dangerous mission takes them to a mysterious, hidden volcanic island where they meet a reclusive genetic scientist (Steve Buscemi) and his bizarre Noah's Ark of hybrid creatures which include the cat-fish, the bull-frog, and the Spork (sparrow / pork). Hot on their heels, eager to solve the mystery on the island and stop the world's imminent destruction first, are Carmen and Juni's rivals from OSS Junior, Gary (Matt O'Leary) and Gerti (Emily Osment) Giggles.

As the four kids head right into a perilous trap that could make them disappear forever, super spies Mom and Dad Cortez (Carla Gugino, Antonio Banderas) go after them, and their spy grandparents - "retired, but not tired" - played by Ricardo Montalban and Holland Taylor, round out the rescue party. But with their gadgets, gizmos and genetics, the Cortez kids don't need rescuing... or so they think.

Writer, director, editor, production designer, director of photography, re-recording mixer and composer (!) Robert Rodriguez has done something very unusual here: he's topped the popular original. Spy Kids 2 has a better plot, cooler special effects, and even more adventure than Spy Kids 1. It helps that all the same actors are back to play these likable characters, and Rodriguez was smart enough to add just enough new ones. Grandpa Cortez, in his high-tech wheelchair, is a not only a great role model, he's portrayed by the ideal actor for the role. The Giggles kids are perfectly annoying, and there's also a cavalcade of consistently cool character actors - Bucemi, Danny Trejo, Cheech Marin, Bill Paxton, Mike Judge - that are sure to delight with their quirky portrayals.

The gadgets, such as the Dragon-Spy sub, the satellite linked watches that do everything but tell time, and the rocket powered hover shoes, are lots of fun, but it's the Ray Harryhausen-inspired creatures, mythic beasts and sword-fighting skeletons which are the most entertaining. Rodriguez walks the fine line of respecting without ripping off.

I guess it's not top secret; I heartily recommend that you treat the kids - or the kid in you - to Spy Kids 2 on the special edition DVD.

spy kids 2.......2007-02-06

My daughter loves it, she is six and loves action kids movies. It is even entertaining enough for adults.

One of the worst movies ever made.......2006-09-05

This movie is horrible. I even found the terror that was Jaws: the Revenge better than this. I'll list some of the things that made this movie bad.
1. The acting was horrible
2. the special effect were even worse than the acting
3. The kids were smarter than the adults (thats how you know its a corny kids movie)
4. The jokes fell flat every singal time
5. The script was horrible
6. 95% of the movie you could tell was on a blue screen
I know they were targeting this movie for younger audiences but get real I've seen alot of family movies that both kids, teenagers, and adults can enjoy. I felt tortured threw this entire movie. I was Praying that it would end and I could leave. Don't buy this movie. Hell don't even rent it. Its just that bad.

Great HD Movie excellently cast.......2006-08-18

The first thing I noticed when watching the movie was the excellent picture quality - it was 'filmed' in High Definition.

Apart from really enjoying the movie (I haven't seen Spy Kids 1 or 3), I found the audio commentary by Robert Rodriguez fantastic. So much so, I plan on buying the DVD, just so I can listen to this again (I borrowed the DVD from our local library).

What a talented and imaginative man Robert Rodriguez is. I also found that alot of his comments are also appropriate in many other areas of ones life, and they don't only relate to the movie industry.

The DVD contains a lot of extra special features and I found them most interesting.

In summary it was a really enjoyable movie, and the special features were superb.

My Granddaughter.......2006-03-10

My granddaughter is nearly 3 and she loves this movie. She was born in China and has been here two years. She will watch this movie everytime she is at our house (every Friday). Good clean movie with lotsa action. She also loves the other two Spy Kids movies.

Environmentally friendly animated film with a strong message that doesn't club anyone over the head--but it certainly can't be missed. Zak (voiced by Christian Slater) is a heavy-machine operator whose job is to push over any vegetation in his path. He's shrunken to wee size, however, when Crysta (Samantha Mathis), a fairy of the forest, not only finds him cute but wants him to see the results of his handiwork. They end up battling Hexxus, an evil force imprisoned in a tree, which now wants to destroy all of Ferngully. Robin Williams offers genuine comic relief as a bat named Batty Koda. Agreeable without making much impact, it's a piffle of a film for one that deals with such strong subject matter. --Keith Simanton

Description

Magic and adventure await in FernGully, a spectacular rainforest where a bat named Batty, whose radar has gone haywire, joins together with Crysta, Pips and the Beetle Boys to save their marvelous world from the evil Hexxus. Ignoring the warnings of her friends, Crysta, the curious tree fairy, explores the world beyond FernGully. She discovers Zak, a real live human who is helping demolish the rainforest. Once Zak sees the beauty and magic of FernGully, he vows to save it. But it may be too late. The Diabolical Hexxus is on the loose and intent on destroying all of FernGully. This animated feature rocks with an original score performed by Sheena Easton, Raffi, Tone-Loc and others.

Beautiful childrens' movie.......2007-05-13

This is a gorgeous movie about the fairies of the forest and how man's actions have a huge impact on the environment. It has its moments of sadness as well as its moments of laughter and is definitely a classic among the chidren's movies and should be added to every collection! An incredible and effective way to educate the youth of today and a movie that should be seen by generations to come.

Great Movie.......2007-03-11

Wonderful family movie. Cute story with great characters and catchy tunes! Big hit with the kids (of all ages)!

Good intentions, disappointing result.......2007-03-09

It is unfortunate that with such good intentions, this film is hard to watch because of ugly animation and too many clichés! I hoped to find a good film for children, to raise awareness about respecting the environment, and had to force myself to stay until the end of this movie. Hope something better will be made soon: we need this kind of theme, but with quality, beauty, real humor and finesse.

Fantastic movie and good DVD.......2007-01-12

This movie is absolutely beautiful. Between the storyline and artwork it's hard to choose where to start. It's an environmentally conscious movie about the Australian rainforest and the fairies that live there. The animation team took a week long trip to Australia and studied the rainforest. So, there's nothing half-baked about this movie. The bright colors are sure to attract people of all ages and the songs aren't corny. I grew up on this movie and the villian wasn't too scary for me. It just depends on the kid.
If you love animation, the half hour segment From Paper to Tree is a worthwhile watch especially if you loved this movie as much as I did. The 1992 Featurette is only about 6 minutes long and is like a short extension of From Paper to Tree. I didn't see the Still Gallery on the second disc, but I might not have looked hard enough for it. Other than that, the commentary and other extras on the first disc are the only other things on the DVD's worth watching. I would definitely buy this DVD set just for the extras mentioned, but the movie's great as well and deserves to be a part of anyone's collection.

Really good movie.......2007-01-12

I watched this movie when I was a little girl and loved and I still enjoy watching it. It's so much better then the crap on TV these days. I would recommend it to anyone. Robin Williams is a hoot in this, and there are so many good lines.
