| | 1. |  | Macbeth (1971)
from Sony Pictures
Customer Review:
Will's play is pretty good. Polanski's film, not so much. Yep, the Scottish play was meant to be a dark one, and Polanski gives us lots of glowering skies, but I just didn't feel much depth of character in this rendering. I'd love to see what Zefferelli would do with Macbeth... or the Cohen... more info

| | 2. |  | Rosemary's Baby
from Paramount
Customer Review:
Hollywood has often attempted to capture the angst of mothers and parents alike, when recreating plots of devil possession and similar storylines. Down to the drips of water, the chocolate mouse scene, the way the meat is flipped in the pan, this movie is a true classic. I first watched this with my... more info

| | 3. |  | Tess
from Sony Pictures
Customer Review:
While taking artistic liberties from the novel , Polanski's Tess is a very entertaining and beautifully filmed movie. The settings and costuming recreate the feeling of Hardy's Wessex as well as any filmed version of his works ever has.
Nastassja Kinski was beautiful in the role and although... more info

| | 4. |  | Frantic
from Warner Home Video
Customer Review:
Maybe this was hot stuff 20 years ago, but it seems a bit dated now. The soundtrack is especially old fashioned, almost embarrassing, like something from the 50s. The plot is fairly standard suspense fare. The writing is nothing to write home about. There is a little suspense, but it's no nail... more info

| | 5. | [no image] | Pirates
from Avid Home Ent
Customer Review:
Arrived very promptly. Movie was in only fair condition. Picture quality a bit muddled and pasty probably due to age and wear; but probably as good as could be expected from a well-used VHS tape.

| | 7. |  | The Ninth Gate
from Live / Artisan
Customer Review:
So the Devil, having eternity to pass the time and no XBOX 360, got bored one night in 1666, thought it was fun to play a game by conjuring up a puzzle. Whoever solves this puzzle is granted the powers of a god. You know, immortality, invincibility, ability to fly, walk on water, all that god stuff.... more info

from New Line Home Video
Customer Review:
This movie explores the complex and intense emotions involved in seeking revenge for unspeakable acts of degradation and humiliation. Excellent cast, amazing performances. Dark but compelling film.

| | 9. | [no image] | Bitter Moon
from Sony Pictures
Customer Review:
Bitter Moon is not necessarily Polanski's best film but it certainly ranks as one of my favorites, at least on a personal level rather than film critique as such. Its a very tight film, very romantic, almost too romantic in fact the higher we go the greater the fall. A great story with most... more info
