This version of the famous Walter Mitty tale is mild-mannered, gentle, and even the little kids can enjoy it. This is a Thurber classic, and it's done pretty well here. It is enjoyable. Warning: no violence or chase scenes!
This release collects every episode from the sixth seasn of Rizzoli & Isles, a drama that zeros in on two disparate gal-pal crimefighters from Boston---assertive detective Jane Rizzoli (Angie Harmon) and steady medical examiner Maura Isles (Sasha Alexander).

This season is fun and interesting: the oldest cop gets engaged, Mrs. Rizzoli starts dating again, Jane is getting harassed by an unknown, and Maura Isles tries to understand her new Scottish lab assistant. Jane's problems are scattered in 3 different episodes, and doesn't conclude in the season ender, which is, yes, a cliff-hanger, so you know there is one more season to come. Look forward to it!
Frank Darabont's critically acclaimed, quietly popular 1994 debut The Shawshank Redemption comes to DVD in a simple presentation that features a widescreen, anamorphic transfer, Dolby Digital 5.1 Audio, a stills gallery, and the theatrical trailer. With an understated, well-crafted film like this one, the focus should be on the finished work, but a Darabont commentary, filmography, "making of" featurette, and other extra features would make a nice counterpart to the film's restraint. Hopefully, Warner Home Video will see fit to release a deluxe version of The Shawshank Redemption that gives the film the treatment it deserves.

The film is about a man not broken by a long, long prison term, living on the fumes of a dream for getting out and living his dream. This dream keeps him going in prison. Should be seen at least once by everyone.

This was the final season of this fine series. There have been better seasons. As if the writers were afraid of any criticism, they opted for a milk toast ending: no dramatic happenings and two bland weddings, just in an attempt to please those who like weddings. Still, if you watch the final season, you've attained closure.

The DVDS has two movies, both starring Nicholas Cage. "Adaptation" also stars Meryl Streep and Chris Cooper. But they don't make the movie enjoyable. Cage plays twin brothers, mentally unbalanced. It's just not a fun movie, unless you like orchids. (I did learn useful things about growing orchids; I may even try it.). The other movie, Red Rock West, doesn't look like much from the label, but it actually has a good plot, and you really want to know what's gonna happen next! I recommend Red Rock West and, for the low price, it's worth buying.
This release from the sitcom Big Bang Theory includes every episode of the show's eighth season, following the daily misadventures of a group of socially awkward and terminally endearing scientists.

The same cast is all back, except Raj has a new girlfriend. She's not likeable nor funny but that's the only weak spot in the Season. One good episode is a showdown between Leonard's and Sheldon's mother; at least Sheldon's mother has a heart. One bonus on the Season 8 DVD: you get to see a photo of the late actress who played Howard's mother for 7 seasons. She's not at all what I had pictured!
A Super-Secret Organization recruits an unrefined but promising street kid into the agency's ultra-competitive training program just as a dire global threat emerges from a twisted tech genius. A phenomenal cast, including Academy Award Winners Colin Firth and Michael Caine and Oscar Nominee Samuel L. Jackson, leads this action-packed spy-thriller directed by Matthew Vaughn (X-Men First Class).

I thought, what with Colin Firth and Michael Caine in it, this film would be well-written and classy. It is neither. It gets cheesy and predictable and every other word is the "f" word. It was a big disappointment.

A very empathetic story of Beach Boy Brian Wilson. It covered their start, one young actor plays him then; John Cusack plays the adult Brian. We see how he had physical, brain, problems and how a bad Dr. Makes it worse. Thank gig his girlfriend (who later becomes his 2nd wife) fought to rid Brian of that mad doctor. A highlight is the 'young'actors do the actual singing in the studio. And the ones playing Dennis Wilson and Mike Love just nail the real-life guys. Now I want to re-listen to later Beach Boys music, I've grown new appreciation of it.
Season 11 of the hard-hitting drama NCIS takes action to greater heights. With 24 adrenaline-packed episodes, Special Agent Jethro Gibbs (Mark Harmon) continues to guide the elite unit from the Naval Criminal Investigative Service into dangerous waters in order to protect the nation from biological attacks, hospital bombings and an unpredictable terrorist group known as 'The Brotherhood of Doubt.' This season, the NCIS team is tested like never before when one of their own is taken hostage by a terrorist at large and the mysterious re-emergence of the infamous Privileged Killer takes the team to New Orleans for a thrilling, two-part episode. Co-starring Michael Weatherly, Sean Murray, Pauley Perrette, Rocky Carroll, Brian Dietzen, David McCallum and Emily Wickersham as new team member Ellie Bishop - the NCIS crew is back and stronger than ever

The female Israeli agent is gone. (The actress in real life, left the show with 2 weeks notice.) A very young genius-type woman has replaced her and it has really lightened the tone of the series. A great improvement. All the rest of the cast is going along the same. DiNofrio (sp) 's father showed up: Robert Wagner plays him. Excellent casting! Hope we see him more.

The sixth season of Big Bang has 1 married couple (little Howard and little Bernadette), Penny is back with Leonard (the shorter guy with glasses), and tall, thin Sheldon is s-l-o-w-l-y getting into a relationship with fellow supergeek, Amy. Why, they sit on the bed together and he gives her a stiff hug this year! Raj's sister, Priya, is gone. (Who knows? she may be back next season). Stuart, the cute little Comic Book Store owner gets a little more air time this season, he's always good for some laughable retorts. Raj is seeking and seeking a girlfriend; he finally meets a quirky girl toward the end of the season (heavy emphasis on quirk- she makes Amy seem normal), but will he get her into a continuing relationship? we don't know, stay tuned for Season 7. Even though there are the same three couples all season, it doesn't get stale because the writers always throw new wrenches into the works: we meet the university's HR (personnel) director (the 1st black chartacer) and the boys all get into HR trouble, we catch a glimpse of Howard's mother ( whoa! ), and Sheldon gets a beautiful new Assistant. Will she break up any of the couples? Dunno yet, stay tuned for Season 7! This is one of the best TV series ever! always funny lines and little scenarios along with each show's plot line.

Does this heater make any noise? I want to use it in the office but I don't want my co-workers sitting next to me all hear it. Thanks!
It does have a "whirr" sound but it doesn't override or block out talking.
