| | 3. Thirteen Days (Infinifilm Edition) |
| Starring: Kevin Costner, Bruce Greenwood, Shawn Driscoll, Drake Cook, Lucinda Jenney
Directed By: Roger Donaldson
July 10, 2001
Given that vast numbers of books and films depict a 'high-stakes' scenario where the fate of the world (real or imagined) hangs in the balance, it is interesting that relatively little attention has been paid in recent years to the one time when the fate of our world really did hang in the balance. The Cuban Missile Crisis of 1962 is the closest that the Cold War ever came to heating up (certainly... more

| | 4. Cocktail | 
| Starring: Tom Cruise, Bryan Brown, Elisabeth Shue, Lisa Banes, Laurence Luckinbill
Directed By: Roger Donaldson
August 13, 2002
Cocktail was an entertaining movie that probably didn't have some of the commercial success as some of the other better known Tom Cruise movies but it was alot of fun. Great music and a very realistic look into the bar/nightclub scene back in those days. A good date movie and ofcourse Tom Cruise and that million dollar mugging. Maybe not the strongest storyline in the world and kinda jumps around... more

| | 5. The Bank Job |
| Starring: Jason Statham, Saffron Burrows, Stephen Campbell Moore, Daniel Mays, James Faulkner
Directed By: Roger Donaldson
July 15, 2008
I wasn't familiar with the Baker Street robbery that took place in London in the early '70s and provides the source material for this British picture. The "Bank Job" has a lot to really like, but at the top of my list was the amazing recreation of 1971 London --- from the streets of the city to the styling of the clothing and hair of the characters. This amazing attention to time and place, along... more

| | 6. No Way Out |
| Starring: Kevin Costner, Gene Hackman, Sean Young, Will Patton, Howard Duff
Directed By: Roger Donaldson
April 25, 2000
I saw this while I was a student of government. Not only was I fascinated by its subtle portrayals of careers and politics, but loved the thriller drama. It is a pity that many reviewers here discuss the details, revealing the twists and secrets as clever film craft. If you know them before you see it, the experience is seriously compromised.
The story revolves around a savvy naval... more

Was not expecting to receive item in time for holiday, and was pleasantly (and gratefully) surprised that it arrived in time. Product was in good condition. I am very satisfied with timeliness and service... more

| | 8. The Recruit |
| Starring: Al Pacino, Colin Farrell, Bridget Moynahan, Gabriel Macht, Kenneth Mitchell
Directed By: Roger Donaldson
May 27, 2003
This is not a film you will keep in your DVD library. Don't buy it (unless the price is less than a rental).
Al Pacino gives another forgetable performance.
Colin Farrell showed such promise in "Tigerland". His career has been downhill since.
And then there's the convoluted plot. I won't spoil the ending for you, but you will give a "WTF happened?" at the end... more
