This is a great documentary with some amazing footage of wild animals. My only complaint is that they showed humans, that ruined it for me. They showed about 5 minutes of africans in the serengeti and how they live, also they showed a little bit of visitors in hot air baloons. IMO, I would have rathered that they kept it only about the wild animals, we see humans every day and it's too bad that they included some here. So without this, I would have given it a 10/10. But since there are humans, I give it 8/10. But a big two thumbs up to IMAZ, this is great stuff!

This is one of my favorite movies, I wish Hollywood would do more movies like this with incredible settings, great visuals, everything about it is simply breathtaking. I've seen it several times now and it's always entertaining, it's just a great adventure.

It's hard to put the movie into words, it's just a great combination of breathtaking settings, great special effects, great action & comedy, very likable characters, great story. It's a very balanced movie, it can sometimes be very funny but also sometimes scary and dark, it's just pure FUN. :)

Anyways if you like adventures like for example the Jurassic Park or the Indiana Jones movies then this one is definitely for you. It just saddens me that they don't make many similar movies because these types of fun adventures (that are actually good) are very rare. I've seen the sequel and although it is a good effort, it simply can't compare to this original movie. With the sequel I thought they focused more on the special effects, but this one has a lot of heart.

Anyways I recommend The Mummy to everybody who likes a perfect adventure pop corn movie. :)

First I'd like to tell you all that the video "Live in Concert" that I'm currently reviewing is actually the same concert of Welcome Home Heroes, it's just that they refer to it as 2 different names. In the beginning they referred to it as "Welcome Home Heroes" (it was a concert that was made for the returning US soldiers from the gulf war and their families), but later on it was sold minus the patriotic songs and referred to as "Live In Concert".

First of all, Whitney is my favorite singer, however I'm able to be objective. I'm honest, it's not as if I would always rate her good just because she's my favorite, in the last few years even though she's still better then 90% of singers out there she has struggled vocally (compared to her peak) and I can admit that. However in her peak 1985-1994 she was untouchable and this concert is one of the best I've seen from her, and it is truly amazing. I would even say that it's the best concert any female singer has ever done.

The tracklisting is 1) I Wanna Dance With Somebody, 2) Saving All My Love For You, 3) How Will I Know, 4) Medley: Didn't We Almost Have It All/A House Is Not A Home/Where Do Broken Hearts Go, 5) All The Man That I Need, 6) My Name Is Not Susan, 7) Anymore, 8) A Song For You, 9) Revelation, 10) Who Do You Love, 11) I'm Your Baby Tonight, 12) Greatest Love of All. There were 2 other tracks that were performed in the concert (The Star Spangled Banner and Battle Hymn of the Republic) but they are not available on the Live In Concert DVD that I have, maybe you can still find the original Welcome Home Heroes VHS that still includes them. I guess that they took them off so that it becomes less patriotic and more of a general audience concert especially for people outside the US.

The concert itself is amazing. Whitney was full with energy, she was flirting with the soldiers, making jokes. Vocally she was perfect, every note she sang was perfect, it's incredible what she can do with her voice. Tracks 4 and 5 are personally my favorites, she brought down the house and the croud was on its feet. It's hard to put it in words, I always thought that the studio versions of her songs do not do her justice because when she sings live she has so much more emotion and soul, she sings them very differently and soars even higher then on the record. I guess it's because she doesn't have to limit herself in order for the songs to be "pop" and played on the radio. When Whitney sings live, she lets everything go. She probably is the singer who has gotten the most standing ovations from her peers.

Other highlights from the concert are Anymore where she's dancing like crazy while singing live at the same time a very tough song, everything seemed effortless. Also on the gospel song Revelation the audience was so into it at the end, she truly brought down the house! Her final performance Greatest Love of All is so cute because a kid walked on stage and then you'll see how funny Whitney is as she kept him during the full performance with many funny things happening.

Whitney Houston is regarded by most people as the greatest singer of all-time, she's the one who set the standards and opened the door commercially and in terms of vocals for people like Mariah, Celine, Christina, Toni, etc. This concert proves why she is the best singer, if you've never witnessed Whitney Houston at her best LIVE, this is your chance.

It's rare that I find a movie that I would want to watch several times. Jurassic Park is one of those few movies. I recently rented "the Mask of Zorro" and it was a great movie. It had action, comedy, romance, great acting, simply the whole package. All the actors were great which is the real strength of the movie, there's a lot of chemistry. The action scenes are very well made, and they are not only "sword battles", there's been a lot of work put in the action scenes. The setting is great, it's a very visual movie. I recommend it to everyone, this movie is a rare combination of pop corn entertaining movie & great acting/quality work. Check it out, I know I'll be seeing it again.

This movie has grossed over 410 million dollars worldwide at the box office which makes it one of the most successful movies of all-time. If you haven't watched it, then that reason alone should be a good cause to watch it.

Both Whitney Houston & Kevin Costner did a great job. The movie has a lot of great one liners, it's too funny. Of course the music & singing are incredible. Now if they can only release a special edition DVD with some extra features it would be great, the dvd currently available was released in 1997 when DVDs were still debuting. Anyways, this movie is a good combination of thriller, romance & humor. If you haven't watched it then check it out!

This was a decent movie, it had funny moments and some good action but it's nothing that we haven't seen before. I thought the Rock did a good job overall (for a first movie), but I was surprised to see that he was very natural when he was simply talking and that his weakness actually happened during some action scenes where he made very weird faces (kind of like his wrestling faces/reactions during a match). I don't know, I think that the Rock fans would be happy with this movie but as for the rest of people they would just find it pointless but still entertaining. So overall I have to say it's average, at least it's not a movie that makes you feel bad at the end, it's just something that would entertain you while your in the theater, nothing more nothing less.

This was a great movie, it was warm, funny and it was nice to see movies evolving around strong morals and themes like religion, love, family, etc.

I thought all the actors did great, Whitney's singing is incredible as always. If you're in the mood for a family or christmas movie, then you will enjoy it. It's very warm.

Also, to the previous person who said that it did terrible in the BOX OFFICE, you forgot to check your stats because it actually did very well. The Preacher's Wife grossed over 48 million dollars in the USA back in 1996, which today would easily make it over 60 million in adjusted box office. It wasn't a blockbuster but it was definitely a hit.

If you want action then don't see the Preacher's Wife. But if you want to see a warm movie about true values in life and that will make you feel good afterwards, then check it out.

Don't waste your time on this old movie. I found it boring and simply outdated. Go see the updated and superior version The Preacher's Wife starring Whitney Houston & Denzel Washington, it's much better in every way.

I found this movie very boring. It got very slow in the middle, all we kept seeing were practice scenes with people throwing balls. What also surprised me is the lack of humor. There were a couple of places where there were some funny moments from the kids, but other then that it was very boring. The movie is EXTREMELY SLOW. To the movie's credit, it did get a little better towards the end but at that point I didn't really care anymore because I was bored the whole time. The actors did a good job despite not having too much of a story to work with. I would give it 3.5/10, I rarely have a bad time in the movie theater but this one simply did nothing for me.

I am not a fan of the TV show, I don't even think that I've seen a complete episode. All I knew about South Park the tv show is that it was not for kids because it had mature subjects and that it was supposed to be funny.

But anyways, I saw the movie and I could not believe it. This has to be THE funniest movie of all-time! After seeing it, I bougth the dvd right away and I have watched so many times. I never get bored of it, even after you see the jokes a hundred times, they are still funny! I have so many favourite moments so it's basically impossible to name them. My only complaint is that I didn't like the parts of satan/sadam hussein as much as the rest. But there are so many good stuff in this movie! If you haven't seen it, you have to, you will not be disappointed. 9/10.

If you like horror movies then go see it. I went thinking that it was more of an action movie with just a little bit of horror, but it was basically all horror from start to end. It was well made but it's not my type of movie. I know nothing of the game itself, but this is no TombRaider, this is horror, so be warned.

Here's my Dragonheart story. I had bought the Jurassic Park III dvd, and in it they had a free dvd offer and a list of 20 dvds to choose from. I picked Dragonheart even though I hadn't seen it, mainly because it had a dragon and I like special effects.

Anyways, so I received the dvd about 2 months later and I was very pleased. The movie is a combination of great special effects, funny moments, great dialogue and great action. I also found myself enjoying it even more when I watch it again. The visuals are outstanding. I think that the fact that they made it not as serious as let's say The Lord Of The Ring helped it. The movie doesn't take itself too seriously and I liked that.

Draco (the dragon) has a great personality, he's just cool. Overall I would say that there is more dialogue then action, so for those who are looking for simply action maybe this movie isn't for you. But personally I was never bored. Dragonheart is not a masterpiece but it is very well done and deserves to be watched. 8/10.

This was a good movie, even though I'm not the target audience. It's nice to see that black women had a movie about them, and thanks to the star power of Whitney Houston it became no.1 and was a big hit. I am actually tired of reading little comments saying that Whitney isn't that good of an actress because all of those comments are based on the fact that she's a singer. If she wasn't a famous singer, nobody would say anything bad about her acting. IMO, she acted very well just like in all her movies, she's not an oscar caliber actress (very few are) but she definitely has screen presence, charisma and gets the job done. Stop hating her because she's a singer, unlike Madonna or Mariah, Whitney at least did some quality work with some quality people, and she hasn't had flops & horrible movies.

A lot of people complain about some inaccuraties in JP movies. For starters, they say that the velociraptors are too big, they find other mistakes, etc. However, the movie is about CREATING dinosaurs. The dinosaurs are not real, they are manufactured by humans through DNA. They said in the movie that the DNA they find isn't complete and they fill in the blanks with frog dna, etc. So to all the people & experts complaining about some inaccuraties, remember that those are not real dinosaurs but ones that were created by humans in some lab. Therefore the dinosaurs are kind of "monsters" created through some real dinosaurs dna and of course you can't expect them to be exactly like the real thing. That being said, the dinosaurs are VERY close to reality, and raptors that big DO exist (Utahraptor has been discovered and is even bigger then the ones in JP), it's just that their name is different. Overall, the dinosaurs are very accurate and whenever there's inaccuraties, the explaination is that they were created in a lab by humans. Even today a lot of unanswered questions remain, so nobody can say how dinosaurs were and behaved 100%, JP movies are the closest you'll ever come to dinosaurs.

Now when it comes to the movie, it's the most awesome experience you'd want to witness. I love the movie and all its sequels. I recommend it to everyone & I can't wait for JP4.

I know that war exists, I actually lived through a civil war for over a decade (lebanon). Before going to the movie, I knew that it was about war but maybe I expected to also see something intelligent and a human side to it instead of simply people shooting. All I have to say is that I can't understand why someone would enjoy this movie. If you tasted what war is in your life, you would hate the movie, find it sick & spit in on it. From the beginning of the movie until the end, all you hear and see are weapons being shot and people getting killed like some video game. There's not 1 minute in it where there isn't violence. It's as if the point of the director is: shoot & kill as much as you can!! I didn't find it entertaining and after a while I didn't care who was dying anymore, the whole time I was shaking my head thinking to myself that we humans are the most pathetic & sick creatures on earth. The only refreshing thing about the movie is seeing a couple of DOGS and a DONKEY. It reminded me the true value of life & that at least the animals do know how to appreciate it. Watching people kill each others each second shouldn't be entertaining, if you had lost some of your loved ones in a war, you would DEFINITELY NOT FIND THIS MOVIE ENTERTAINING, YOU WOULD FIND IT SICK, no matter what the political reason is! I really hope that they stop promoting war, there's another way to deal with problems. Take out the weapons and everyone would be forced to sit down and talk. Believe it or not, most of the weapons of those terrorists in the movie were actually BOUGHT from countries including the USA. How pathetic is that? Anyways, I'm not reviewing the movie about it's technical part and how well it's done, some people are even saying it could win oscars, but to me this movie is sick & not watchable unless you enjoy seeing us humans killing each others. You may not agree with my view but I hope that you will at least understand.

I can't believe that some people are saying that it's the best movie of all-time. It's decent but nothing special. First of all, no movie without an ending should be rated at no.1 of all-time. Yes I know that it will have sequels, but I'm reviewing the MOVIE, not the series. Also I found the movie very long, and I was bored several times and looking at my watch. As for the plot, it's nothing special. It's mainly about Good VS Evil, with the story evolving around a "ring". The positive things would have to be the special effects, it was a very visual movie. In conclusion, I found it to be a decent & average movie, nothing more.

I really enjoyed the movie! It had a cool vibe about it, the characters were very fun and the movie although dealing with a serious matter (robbing a casino) had also funny moments. Some people in the theater even clapped at the end.

What I really like about it is that you are basically rooting for the bad guys and being okay with it. In reality we should be with the casino owner not with the 11 stars who are robbing it, but everyone was rooting for the bad guys. Very well done movie and I'm sure that's the purpose of the director.

What an incredible movie! I bought the dvd and I have already seen it about 5 times, and the special features are also amazing. One of the times that I saw it was with my family, and all 4 of us agreed that it's better then The Lost World and that it's as good as the first Jurassic Park. We all loved it.

For the people here who are complaining about the movie and who are basically searching for intense deep conversation, extremely complicated storylines, sophistication, to learn something extraordinary about life etc., YOU ARE NOT WATCHING THE RIGHT MOVIE! This is an action movie! And to me, it's probably the BEST action movie ever made. It delivers in every way.

The settings are incredible. The whole movie is filmed in nature and it's such a pleasure to watch it. Your eyes will be satisfied, the settings are amazing. As for the dinosaurs, I have never seen anything like it! They are incredible and I doubt it's possible to make them look more realistic then this.

The movie is full of action, just like many people have said, it's a THRILL RIDE. You never get bored, it's non stop action. Another good thing is that there's also humor at the right places. In my opinion, all the actors played their roles perfectly. The action sequences are incredible and very realistic. In other words, the dinosaurs react and move just like they would probably have if they were alive, they are based on real scientific research.

Also each action sequence is basically a story on its own. It's not literally dinosaurs chasing humans the whole time, the action sequences are much more sophisticated and very different from each others. IMO, this new director has done an incredible job. I also enjoyed seeing the flying dinosaurs (I forget their name) and of course Spinosaurus, T-Rex, Raptors among many others.

This is what a dinosaur movie should be like, they are in THEIR surroundings & territory (meaning the forest) which is incredible to see. It's probably my favourite Jurassic Park movie and I suggest to everyone to go see it and judge for yourself. If you don't, then it's your loss. I recommend it to anyone who loves dinosaurs/nature or action movies in general. I can't wait for the 4th movie and I plan to buy the 2 other dvds very soon because it's been a while that I haven't seen them! This movie has turned me into a Jurassic Park fan! Thank you for your incredible work.

GO JURASSIC PARK!!!!!!!!!!! Go Dinosaurs!

When it first came out I heard so many bad reviews from critics which led me to not see The One. Then today we were going to see Spy Game but it was sold out, The One was the only movie that we didn't see. So we said oh well let's see it anyways. I was very happy with the movie and I have learned to not let the critics influence me anymore.

In my opinion, most critics who bashed the movie were probably expecting deep dialogue or "lessons about life" or some touching moments or whatever, but see this movie isn't about this. It's an action movie, if you want that other stuff then don't go see a Jet Li movie. This movie was full of action and I found the plot very interesting. My only complaint is that I thought the movie was short, it could've been longer. Anyways I suggest this movie to anyone who enjoys action, suspense, fights, etc. From now I'll give any movie a shot and I will judge for myself and not let critics stop me! 8/10.

Ok, what can I say... I just saw Zoolander with a friend and I thought that the movie was HORRIBLE. The thing is my friend enjoyed it. So what does this mean? It means that if you think EXTREME STUPIDITY is funny then go see it, otherwise stay away. Also, the actor didn't look like a male model which made the movie even less believable (like if that is possible! LOL). Anyways, to me the movie wasn't funny at all and I don't understand how someone could find it funny. But just like I said, my friend liked it so I guess it depends on the person. I remember that I didn't find the trailer funny, so that could be a hint. If you enjoyed the trailer go see it, if you didn't find the trailer interesting then stay away. Also, the movie hurts the reputation of male models. I'm sure they are normal intelligent people and it's sad that they are portrayed and seen like this in general.

I'm not giving a review on the quality of the production, the quality of the directing or the quality of acting. I suppose one could say that the movie is well-made in all these categories. However, my review is about the message in the movie and how it makes you feel afterwards. It makes you feel like your life means nothing. It makes you feel depressed and sad. IT SUCKS THE LIFE OUT OF YOU AND THROWS IT IN A GARBAGE CAN. When I got out the theater, I thought to myself, okay why am I living, I'm going to die anyways, life sucks, we're here to die. And that wasn't only my opinion, but also the friend who I saw it with. What's the point of a movie if it makes you feel bad at the end. It's not as if each movie has to end with a happy ending, however, there must be a limit. I don't see the message of the movie, it's not as if they are teaching us something. I DON'T SEE THE POINT OF THE MOVIE except that it's weird, sad and depressing. If you're already depressed, then please don't go see this movie because it might push you over the edge. You want to spend 5 dollars? Go buy 10 cheeseburgers at McDonald, I wish I did.

I don't know why some people are being negative, but I watched it and I liked it. First, I would like to say that I HATED WITH ALL MY GUTS the movie Pulp Fiction. In my opinion, it was the sickest and stupidest movie of all time. However, Swordfish is a good action movie that never gets boring. It has all the elements, beautiful chick, great action, suspense, a good storyline and surprising turn-outs. I thought all the actors did a great job and I was entertained. I give it an 8.5/10 and if you like action movies, I suggest you go see it.

Pulp Fiction in my opinion is the most overrated movie of all-time. I really don't understand why many people claim it to be one of the greatest movies ever. It's cruel, stupid, idiotic. It's full of violence & f-words to the point that it's sickening. It's like, let's get a couple of guns, a couple of f-words, a couple of murders and let's combine them to make a movie. I hated everything about it. EVERYTHING. To me, all the positive comments on this site about this movie are written by only 1 fan under different usernames. So the scenes were not in chronological order, big deal. That doesn't make it a masterpiece. This is hollywood garbage. There are some scenes that are sick. The movie is SICK. This is my review. I gave it a 2/10 just because the actors are respected. Everything else is idiotic.
