Movie Reviews of After the Thin Man
Movie Review: Mixed experience- great movie, though
Summary: 3 Stars
While I enjoyed the movie (watched it with my parents who love this series), the video came in spurts. I watched this through amazon's video on demand on a G5 iMac. There were several times where the video started chopping. At first I thought the lag was due to a lack of buffering, but throughout the movie (pausing to buffer every ten minutes) I decided that maybe the service wasn't there- amazon VOD was brand new at the time. Never once did it say that it was buffering, and pausing to let it buffer never actually changed the amount of time we could watch it without interruption. And it wasn't my parents' connection speed- they watch hulu all the time and had never seen a buffer in their life. For now, I chalk it up to a new service getting through the hiccups, but my folks are a hard sell to try it again. Maybe after amazon's VOD gets some positive press in a blog or news article I'll return to try it again.
Summary of After the Thin Man
It's New Year's Eve, Nick and Nora Charles have returned to the West Coast, and the philandering hubby of Nora's cousin has gone missing. Round up the unusual suspects. The stars (plus the four-footed one!), writers and director of The Thin Man reunite for a giddy second comedy whodunit. Myrna Loy is Nora, who by all accounts doesn't scold, doesn't nag and looks far too pretty in the morning. William Powell is Nick, retired from sleuthing but hardly retiring when it comes to a case more scrambled than the 3 A.M. eggs he whips up. And rising star James Stewart leads a tip-top supporting cast. "This is a fine way to start the New Year," Nick says as he springs Nora from lockup. Indeed, it is.Kids & Family DVD Video
