A lusty and rousing adventure, this calls to mind those glorious costume dramas produced so capably by the old Hollywood studio system--hardly surprising, in that its title character, a de facto Robin Hood in Old California, provided starring vehicles for Douglas Fairbanks and Tyrone Power, the 50s TV hit, and dozens of serials and features. Zorro, a pop-fiction creation invented by Johnston McCulley in 1918, is given new blood in this fast-moving and engaging version, which actually works as a sequel to the story line in the Fairbanks-Power saga, The Mark of Zorro. A self-assured Anthony Hopkins is Don Diego de la Vega, a Mexican freedom fighter captured and imprisoned just as Spain concedes California to Santa Ana. Twenty years later, he escapes from prison to face down his mortal enemy, a land grabbing governor played with slimy spitefulness by Stuart Wilson. Too old to save the local peasants on his own, he trains bandito Antonio Banderas to take his place. Much swashbuckling ensues as Banderas woos Catherine Zeta-Jones, becomes a better human being and saves the disenfranchised rabble. Director Martin Campbell wisely instils a measure of frivolity into the deftly choreographed action sequences, while letting a serious tone creep in when appropriate. This covers much ground under the banner of romantic-action-adventure and it does so most excellently. --Rochelle O'Gorman
Anthony Hopkins stars as the Roman General in this adaptation of the classic Shakespeare play. Co-stars Jessica Lange and Alan Cummings.
A comedy set in a small Welsh villae about a young woman who gave up a singing career to look after her parents. Is it too late for her to start singing again?
There was so much story left to tell after I Know What You Did Last Summer that the filmmakers brought back all the beloved, surviving characters from the first film for this sequel. Ray (Freddie Prinze Jr), Julie (Jennifer Love Hewitt), and Julie's white tank top (Jennifer Love Hewitt's white tank top) return to once again face a hook-wielding maniac. Not satisfied merely to repeat a theme, director Danny Cannon and screenwriter Trey Callaway add variation by introducing Karla (Brandy) as Julie's best friend in the whole wide world. Karla and Julie have won a summer trip to the Bahamas with their current infatuations but find that they've arrived at the start of the storm season and that at their hotel "Do Not Disturb" signs should flip to say "R.I.P." One can only hope to hang just such a sign on this repetitive, tedious franchise, especially since this version is less scary than the price of beer in those little hotel room refrigerators. Definite contender for Gratuitous T&A Shot of the Year (it's of Hewitt and that's not meant as a recommendation). --Keith Simanton
A dignified send-off for a loved one erupts into uproarious chaos when romance, jealousy, in-laws, hallucinogens, dark secrets, life-long yearnings and a spot of bold blackmail all collide.
Please note the reported sound issues are not repeated on the DVD as the correct balance has been applied. The new hauntingly powerful BBC adaptation of Daphne du Maurier's gothic romance novel Jamaica Inn starring Jessica Brown Findlay and Matthew McNulty. From the BAFTA winning director Phillipa Lowthorpe (Call The Midwife) and written by Golden Globe nominated Emma Frost (The White Queen Shameless) comes this exhilarating dramatic adaptation of Daphne Du Maurier's classic iconic book Jamaica Inn. Set in 1821 against the forbidding backdrop of windswept Cornish moors the story follows the journey of spirited Mary (Brown Findlay) who is forced to live with her Aunt Patience (Joanne Whalley) after the death of her mother. Mary arrives at the isolated Jamaica Inn to discover her Aunt is a shell of the carefree woman she remembers from her childhood and instead finds a drudge who is firmly under the spell of her domineering husband Joss (Sean Harris). The Inn has no guests - the rooms are locked and kept for storage - but it soon becomes clear that it's a cover as Joss is the leader of a smuggling ring and Jamaica Inn the hub of his free trade. As Mary gets drawn into the dangerous world of smuggling she finds herself attracted to Jem Merlyn (McNulty) Joss's roughly handsome younger brother. But he stands for everything that Mary despises and worse she fears that he's involved in Joss's gang. Mary's morals and loyalties become deeply conflicted. Who can she trust? Can she even trust herself? Seeking guidance Mary visits the parish vicar Francis Davey (Ben Daniels) and his sister Hannah (Shirley Henderson). But can they help her to navigate this dangerous new world and do the right thing or will she lose herself in everybody else's criminality? When Mary finds herself in peril for her own life she is tested to the core and she's forced to find out what she's really made of.
