 | | 31. Pirates of the Caribbean Dead Man's Chest | | | Starring: Johnny Depp Keira Knightley Director: Gore Verbinski | | Format: DVD Release Date: 8/15/2008 |  | Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest - DVD By: Matt Paprocki - Blogcritics.org Reviews Published on: 1/13/2007 9:51 AM | This is how Hollywood should make all of their sequels. Given the immense success of the first film in 2003, the inevitable Pirates of the Caribbean sequel received an $80 million boost to its budget. The film definitely looks the part. Both immense in scale and fun, Dead Man’s Chest is easily on par with, if not better than, its predecessor.
Johnny Depp owns his character, a sly pirate named Jack Sparrow. Everything about his performance makes him a perfect centerpiece for the film. read the full review | |

 | | 37. Peter Pan (2 Disc Platinum Edition) | | | Director: Clyde Geronimi Wilfred Jackson | | Format: DVD Release Date: 12/16/2008 | User Rating: 5 | | Peter Pan (1953) - DVD By: Christopher Null - filmcritic.com DVD Reviews Published on: 2/23/2007 6:47 PM | |
Peter Pan may be a boy who refuses to grow up, but his movie is really one of Disney's most adult "kids'" films.
Like Pinocchio, there are a lot of mature themes in Peter Pan. The elfin Peter is full of duplicity -- he'll lie to no end to get his way. Peter and the children he has brought with him to Never Land (they don't want to grow up either) visit a local Indian tribe, and with appropriate 1950s un-PC-ness, the smoke'm peace pipe and blow smoke triangles (cue song: "What Made the Red Man Red?"). Wendy and the kids are kidnapped by an extremely effeminate sailor (the immortal Captain Hook, Pan's nemesis). read the full review | |

 | | 45. Robin Hood-Prince of Thieves | | | Starring: Kevin Costner Director: Kevin Reynolds | | Format: DVD Release Date: 9/14/2004 | User Rating: 3.8 | | Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves - DVD Review By: James Brundage - filmcritic.com DVD Reviews Published on: 5/15/2009 5:40 PM | |
I have to say that I probably have seen the parody of this film more times than I have seen the movie itself. Somehow, through quirks of fate (namely, a WPST-NJ promotion), I got a free copy of the tape of Robin Hood: Men in Tights and have put up with watching it time after time. So, in the sense of cosmic justice, I figured I should actually watch the movie that spawned the film that has given me so many laughs that it probably didn't deserve. Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves is yet another example of Hollywood taking a famous story and making it Hollywood-compliant. read the full review | |
