Asoka Movie Review

Average Rating: (3 out of 5 stars) 3 stars

5 stars Best of Bollywood
Shah Rukh Khan and Kareena Kapoor's performances, along with an excellently written script, make Asoka the best Bollywood movie I've ever seen. The drama; music; choreography; and pagentry of this film, plus it's surprise climax, will pull at your heart strings like a master puppeteer. This majestic epic is a must-see, especially for those unfamiliar with bollywood films.

I was in the video store and stumbled across 'ASOKA'. I thought the cover was nice, but wasnt expecting much. I was so wrong! This is,by far ,my all time FAVORITE movie! It's got beautiful people,comedy,drama, catchy songs and the best love story ever. I forced my boyfrind to watch and now he loves it to. I LOVE 'ASOKA' and I'm stoked I finally own my own copy.

1 star Waste of time!
This is just another cheap entertainment from India which does not intend to define/redefine or depict the history of the times of Asoka nor does it contribute a bit to the Art of Cinema. total waste of time.

1 star worst historical movie ever made
this is what happens when you make a period movie with 21st century gestures and body language and have no idea or clue of the history.less than average performance by the cast drives the last nail.not worth watching.

Full of pride, Cassiopeia compares her daughter's beauty to that of Hera. Angered, the queen of the gods has Poseidon unleash the monstrous beast Craken to destroy their village unless Cassiopeia's daughter, Andromeda, is sacrificed. Perseus, the son of Zeus, becomes enchanted with the breathtaking beauty and is determined to save her from this fate. The young hero, armed with a magical shield, a winged stallion and a mechanical owl, discovers the only way to defeat the monster is with the head of Medusa. The gods watch and intervene on Perseus' quest to save his beloved. This was legendary special effects wizard Ray Harryhausen's last film before he retired from creating movie magic. L.A. LAW's Harry Hamlin stars as the Greek mythological hero Perseus who fights snake-haired Medusa and two-headed dogs to save the lovely Andromeda (Judi Bowker). Laurence Olivier, as Zeus, is one of the many screen legends in this adventure. Burgess Meredith, Claire Bloom, Maggie Smith and Ursula Andress round out the cast as the Gods of Mount Olympus. Director Desmond Davis was camera operator on TOM JONES and A TASTE OF HONEY, two influential early 1960s British films. Writer Beverly Cross was one of the writers on 1963's Ray Harryhausen film, JASON AND THE ARGONAUTS. Closed Captioned; Bio/Filmographies; Soundtrack English; Soundtrack French; English Subtitles

Superfly DVD (1972) Widescreen

$8.79

SUPERFLY, along with COFFY and SHAFT, completes Blaxploitations's best known triumvirate. One of the highest-grossing pictures of 1972, SUPERFLY became an instant classic, and established director Gordon Parks firmly in Warner Brothers' sights to make THREE THE HARD WAY in 1974. Parks was one of the first African American directors to get financing from a major Hollywood studio to make the 1969 film THE LEARNING TREE. Super Fly is a cocaine dealer who begins to realize that his life will soon end with either prison or his death. He decides to build an escape from the life by making his biggest deal yet, converting the coke to cash and running off to start a new life. The problem is that the Mob does not have a retirement plan and will give him a choice of staying and selling for them or dying if they find out his intentions. With a terrific score by Curtis Mayfield and a star wearing threads to match, SUPERFLY is chock full of the sass, flash, and action Blaxploitation is known for. Soundtrack English; English Subtitles

Terry Dolittle (Whoopi Goldberg) is a brilliant but underappreciated data entry clerk who works for Manhattan's First National Bank under the watchful eye of her dictatorial boss Mr. Page (Peter Goetz). Terry often chats with clients via her terminal, which occasionally picks up Russian television. The tides of Terry's life turn when one day she picks up a transmission from a British spy trapped in Eastern Europe, who has the code name of Jumpin' Jack Flash; he enlists Terry's help in securing an exit contract, sending her on quirky excursions to help him escape and avoid foul play. Thus ensues a convoluted mission where Terry is on the run from the KGB, kidnapped while in a phone booth (phone booth and all), injected with a truth serum, and attempts to get a crucial message to Jack before the Russians have their way with him. She also manages to find love, get back at her boss, and do a great Mick Jagger impression to the fantastic soundtrack of music from the 60s. This is Whoopi in top form!
