DVD. Feature film. Dual layer. 177 min. Widescreen. Sound in Engl. & French. Subtitles in Engl., French, & Spanish. T heatrical trailer, special FX footage w/ commentary by visu al FX supervisors, The Postman's CGI Route.

In a post-apocalyptic, totally anarchic America, circa 2013, a defector from the ranks of murderous despot General Bethlehem masquerades as a representative of the good old U.S. Postal Service. But his ruse so delights the weary, oppressed people he meets that it indeed becomes real--and he finds himself championing their rights and the American Way. Adapted from the novel by David Brin.

Although the film was not a critical or commercial hit when it was first released, Kevin Costner told the New York Daily News in late 2000, "I loved making THE POSTMAN. I understand they're showing it in school now to illustrate mythic heroes. Does it attach itself to me like some blemish? That's just cute journalism. I love that movie the way [Frank] Capra loved IT'S A WONDERFUL LIFE."

4 stars Best of Costners Worst Movies
Costner is not one of my favorite actors, being both flat and uninteresting. That being said this is one of his most watchable movies due to the story itself. A scam twisted into a message of hope for the new world? Unlikely, but and exciting possibility. Will Patton is a brilliant, captivating, multidimensional "bad guy", a refreshing change from the paper thin baddies we usually see. His performance ran right over Costner and Patton commandeers the camera in every scene he's in. The romance sub plot is ridiculous. But, all in all, this is a pretty good movie made all the better by Will Patton.

Hot-tempered, self-centered, part-Irish Southern beauty Scarlett O'Hara, played to the teeth by Vivien Leigh, loves the gentlemanly Ashley Wilkes (Leslie Howard). Smug, rebellious, honest, blockade-running profiteer Rhett Butler, portrayed gracefully and naturally by Clark Gable, loves Scarlett. Ashley, who is also in love with Scarlett, marries his genteel cousin Melanie (Olivia de Havilland) because he believes that their quiet similarities will create a better marriage than Scarlett's passion.

A landmark in film history, EASY RIDER blew the studio doors open for more young directors than any film before or since, helping to create the wide-open climate that would lead to the production of many outstanding films in the 1970s. As its director, Dennis Hopper is usually given the lion's share of credit for the film's success, but the revelations of time suggest that the contributions of the late Terry Southern and, to some degree, Jack Nicholson have endowed the film with much of its residual power. Starring Peter Fonda as Wyatt (alias Captain America) and Hopper as Billy, it traces the hippie duo's adventures as they mount their seriously chopped hogs on a journey to find the real America en route to Mardi Gras. In Arizona, they visit a commune whose members are having a tough time, and in a small Texas town they're jailed for joining a ...

In Karel Reisz's SWEET DREAMS, Jessica Lange stars as Patsy Cline, the ill-fated country singer whose trembling, emotion packed renditions of "Crazy," "Sweet Dreams," and "I Fall to Pieces," made her one the most enduring voices in all of American popular music. Starting out by performing more standard country songs in little dives and honky-tonks in Virginia, Patsy rose to national prominence after her manager Ted Healy matched her voice to her now famous bittersweet love songs. Unfortunately, her own love life ...

Former video store clerk Quentin Tarantino's directorial debut, RESERVOIR DOGS, is a brutally funny, supercharged introduction to his supremely distinct cinematic vision, which was later to become one of the most mimicked styles of the 1990s. Mastermind Joe Cabot (Lawrence Tierney) assembles a crew of top-notch criminals to pull off a jewelry store heist. As the film opens it becomes immediately clear that the plan backfired, forcing the survivors, who have gathered at an abandoned warehouse, to figure out if one of them is, in fact, a police informer. The crew--Mr. White (Harvey Keitel), an aged veteran; Mr. Orange (Tim Roth), a wounded newcomer; Mr. Blonde (Michael Madsen), a psychopathic parolee; Mr. ...

This pack contains three MOBILE SUIT GUNDAM movies. In the MOBILE SUIT GUNDAM MOVIE TRILOGY, it is the year 0079 of the Universal Century. The Duchy of Zeon is using humanoid fighting machines called mobile suits slowly defeat the Earth Federation. The Federation has built a prototype mobile suit called Gundam, and a young pilot named Amuro Rey is chosen to pilot it and try to save the Federation. In the second GUNDAM movie, the Federation ship White Base carries a load of prototype mobile suits to Earth only to find the Duchy of Zeon waiting. White Base is forced to run and Gundam pilot Armuro is forced to fight. The third film finds the ongoing war to a close, but the Federation prepares to finish off the Duchy of Zeon. Though Gundam pilot Amuro is now experienced, he is not prepared for what this battle will bring. In MILLER'S REPORT, the Federation sends out intelligence officer Alice Miller to investigate Shiro Amada, suspecting that he is actually a Zeon spy. They charge Miller with discovering the reason behind Amada's absence from the team's last battle. Facing the end of his career, Amada must decide whether his military duty or his relationship with Aina is more important to him. Set 13 years after ...

Richard Loncraine's WIMBLEDON is a lighthearted romantic comedy set in the high-pressure world of professional tennis. Peter Colt (Paul Bettany) is a 31-year-old Englishman who was once ranked 11th in the world, but has now dropped to a pathetic 119th. Realizing that his days are numbered, Peter intends to retire from the game after playing in one final Wimbledon. But when he accidentally walks into the hotel room of rising American star Lizzie Bradbury (Kirsten Dunst), sparks begin to fly and Peter begins to find his touch on the court once again. Unfortunately for Peter, Lizzie's overbearing father, Dennis (Sam Neill), is well aware that Lizzie's game suffers when she is distracted by love, and he bans the two from seeing each other. This doesn't bode well for Peter, who is about to play in the final against cocky American superstar ...

Destined to be a Christmas classic, Thomas Bezucha's dazzling dramedy, THE FAMILY STONE, manages to be both warmhearted and sentimental while possessing a razor-sharp hilarious mean streak. The fairly conventional story centers on Sarah Jessica Parker's uptight career woman, Meredith, and her run-in with the eponymous Stone family. With her permanently pursed lips and severe bun, SJP looks and acts the anti-Carrie Bradshaw here as, armed with cell phone and business-suit collection, she gears up to meet her fiance's oddball family, a tight-knit, colorful clan who border on bohemian. Matriarch Sybil (Diane Keaton) and ...
