Don't throw out that VHS copy yet...
First of all,I truly do enjoy this movie. Criticisims I have concern the DVD itself, not the movie. I figured that with such a low price we wouldn't be seeing much in the way of extras on this DVD. Boy, was I right! You get nothing but the trailer. I was really looking forward to seeing this movie in widescreen. The "W...

Had To Throw It Away
Although I rate it at the opposite end of the spectrum, I agree with the reviewer who says "Either you get it or you don't," and I don't. I like the two stars a lot, and I love Montana, and--influenced by the favorable reviews--I bought this movie last week. Except for an exuberant sex scene, nothing really happens dur...

I want my money back!!
Poorly made "movie". Extremely grainy picture ( as though a guaze had been placed over the camera lense). The sound does not match the actors' lip movements. If it wasn't so much trouble, I would send this DVD back to Amazon.

A Bad 70's "Western"
Encouraged by many positive reviews, I purchased this DVD for viewing at a "movie nite" with a group of friends. Unfortunately, the film was a great disappointment - one of the least entertaining films I have seen, and often painful to watch. Even Slim Pickins couldnt save this artifact of the 70's. None of us found th...

Bridges & Buffett, Need I say more?
Not your typical Hollywood movie. Very funny, with a drier sence of humor. Jimmy Bufett music from begining to end, not to mention an appearance mid-way through; what a high light! Bridges was great as usual, playing a confident, young cattle thief. Wouldn't he play a great Joe Merchant? I recomend this as a "get toget...

You either get it or you don't
I saw this in the theatre when it was first released in 1974. Years later I thought I was the only one whe remembered it. In 1983, I saw it was playing at the Circle Theatre in Washington, DC. Was overwhelmed to see the theatre SOLD OUT with other fans. This is a true cult classic, in the same vein as Harold and Maude....

Another favorite of mine, the beauty of this book is obvious in the imagry that Lackey pens, and the tension built by the oncoming battle. My main problem was, the battle didn't really happen.

Another Excellent Beginning of a Series that Never Developed
While a fantastically new and unique re-telling of the classic Beauty and the Beast tale; this could have evolved into a wonderful series as well.

An a-typical Lackey work.
Being a die-hard Valdemar fan, I wasn't sure quite how to approach The Fire Rose. Once I started reading it, I was hooked. It is rather predictable, but it *says* it's a re-telling. Definitely worth the read, but not Lackey at her best.
