Francis Ford Coppola's Masterpiece features Marlon Brando in his Oscar-winning role as the patriarch of the Corleone family. Director Coppola paints a chilling portrait of the Sicilian clan's rise and near fall from power in America, masterfully balancing the story between the Corleone's family life and the ugly crime business in which they are engaged. Based on Mario Puzo's best-selling novel and featuring career-making performances by Al Pacino, James Caan and Robert Duvall, this searing and brilliant film garnered ten Academy Award nominations, and won three including Best Picture of 1972.

What can I say about The Godfather that has not been said already? The picture and audio are far superior to television and DVD quality. The extras are interesting, entertaining and plentiful. You will not be disappointed with this re-release of these masterpieces.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Having grown up with the Indy trilogy, I was incredibly excited when I heard about the fourth movie finally getting made. I will be honest and say I enjoy it more now having seen it three times. Indy's development and character traits have become more obvious and Lucas/Spielberg/Ford/Koepp did a wonderful job tying the movies, television series and other literature together to support this. I am also in strong favor of the science fiction approach to the plot as well. Indiana Jones has always been intended to be a supernaturalpursuit and aliens (outerspace or interdimensional) are perfect for this type of story.
The material on the second disc is terrific, we get a 1+ hour making of the movie, several additional docs, 3 animatic action sequences with music that did not make it onto the CD soundtrack and the demo for the LEGO Indiana Jones for XBOX360, plus trailers, photos, etc. Sorry, just like the other dvds there are no deleted scenes. The picture and sound are excellent. I could watch this ten more times.
What's great about it: Leaves you craving Indy 5
What's not so great: Leaves you craving Indy 5

This is the last great accomplishment of the full E Street Band with founding member Danny (Phantom) Federici. It's full of sound, passion, political jabs, social commentary and those classic themes Bruce has addressed for over 35 years. Girls In Their Summer Clothes is THE song of this season so expect to hear it blasting from car stereos as me and fellow Springsteenians light up the highways of Jersey.
What's great about it: Bruce & E Street in their full glory
What's not so great: 45 minutes of cd isn't long enough!
I would recommend this to a friend!
