A Few Short Movie Synopses

By Marvin Torres

We have reviews of some movies listed below. To find movie downloads do a search. "Online DVD Rentals" or "Movie To Download" might get you a good result, if they don't, try "Top DVD Rentals".

The Far Country: Cattleman Stewart, a verified hermit, brings his herd to Alaska and finds nothing but trouble. A different Western set against vibrant backdrop of mining camp towns. Cast includes James Stewart, Ruth Roman, Corinne Calvet, Walter Brennan, John McIntire, Harry Morgan, Jack Elam, Robert Wilkie, Connie Gilchrist, and Kathleen Freeman. (97 minutes, 1955)

Bootmen: Novice director Perry (of the dance group Tap Mutts) used his own background to develop this toe tapping film of a youthful gentleman's escape into big-time show business- and then back once more as he rallies his blue collar tap-dancing cronies to build his own modern-day dance show. Cast includes Adam Garcia, Sam Worthington, Sophie Lee, Christopher Horsey, Lee McDonald, William Zappa, and Richard Carter. (93 minutes, 2000)

Delta Fox: Unremarkable action-based opus in regards to a smuggler on the run from Miami to L.A. Cast includes Richard Lynch, Priscilla Barnes, Stuart Whitman, John Ireland, and Richard Jaeckel. (92 minutes, 1977)

Airheads: 3 metal heads with toy guns reluctantly take a music station prisoner, wishing to get play for their one and only demo tape. Not precisely the most difficult subject to satirize, and the script is weak anyway. A somewhat vigorous direction and compact running time help a tad. (91 minutes, 1994)

Blaze of Noon: A hokey tale of Holden torn between his spouse (Baxter) and his real love, flying. Cast includes Anne Baxter, William Holden, Sonny Tufts, William Bendix, and Sterling Hayden. (91 minutes, 1987)

The Fragile Delinqueut: Jerry's first solo attempt after separating with Dean Martin has him as late who gets to be a cop with McGavin's help. Cast Jerry Lewis, Martha Hyer, Darren McGavin, Horace McMahon, and Milton Frome. (100 minutes, 1957)

The Buddy System: Desolate baby tries to play matchmaker between his lone mommy and a grown-up buddy, could-be novelist and tool creator Dreyfuss, however there are spiritual problems. Pleasantly played although excessively recognizable (and overlong) romantic comedy. Cast includes Richard Dreyfuss, Susan Sarandon, Nancy Allen, Jean Stapleton, Will Wheaton, Edward Fall, and Keene Curtis. (110 minutes, 1984)

Rock My World: This is a pretty good comedy set in England (however shot and funded in Canada) that went directly to video in the U.S. although is far more involving than its theatrical destiny could show. We see an aristocratic British couple lease their mansion to a rock band and end up posing as the butler and chef while the misfit team ultimately shows up. Observing the interplay create between these extremely variant generations and lifestyles is fun and the music is surprisingly catchy. Cast includes Peter O'Toole, Joan Plowright, Alicia Silverstone, Jairnz Woolvett, Keram Malicki-Sanchez, Christopher Bolton, and Lochlyn Munro. (106 minutes, 2002)

I Wake Up Screaming: Amusing whodunit with Grable and Mature accused in the death of Betty's sis, chased by decided cop Cregar. The film ends with an excellent twist. Cast includes Betty Grable, Victor Mature, Carole Landis, Laird Cregar, William Gargan, Alan Mowbray, Allyn Joslyn, and Elisha Cook. (82 minutes, 1941)

I hope you enjoyed the reviews. You can find movies like these at download sites, which you can find by searching "Online Movies Rentals" or "Unlimited Downloads" A final search with "Movie Download Site" might get you what you need if the other ones fail.
