Movie Reviews of The Buccaneers

Movie Review: it's about time!
Summary: 5 Stars

Boy, did this take forever to get to DVD. This and "Goodfellas" are my favorite movies of all time. Cast is fabulous. Great cinematography and directing. Beautiful locations. The masterpiece of period films. You feel like you are there in the late 1800s watching it. Carla Gugino is such a fine actress who has not received the acclaim she deserves. Some of the girls must have remained friends. Maybe they knew each other before. I don't know. But when I see Carla in other things, sometimes Rya is there, and sometimes Rya's husband, Gil Bellows. I was sorry to see "Karen Sisco" get canceled. That was a fine, stylish and different cop show with a great cast and music throughout, and I hate cop shows.

Movie Review: Carla Gugino is Perfection!
Summary: 5 Stars

Saw this movie when it aired originally and (Mira Sorvino's accent aside), is near perfection. Greg Wise is wonderful, Alison Elliott is good, Cherie Lunghi (Ms. Testvalley) is superb and James Frain as Nan's husband is spectacularly spineless & slimy - but Carla Gugino is Pure Perfection! It was the first time I'd seen her in anything and I've never forgotten it. I'm surprised she is under valued in the industry - but then again, there is a lot of that going 'round. Also discovered Michael Kitchen for the first time.

Movie Review: Great mini-series
Summary: 5 Stars

I saw this series when it first came out and loved it. I purchased the dvd on Amazon but forgot to write a review. Several reviews blasted this film but I thoroughly enjoyed it. Period pieces are among my favorites and this did not disappoint. It is older now and you can see the actors, now older too, in many current films. James Frain for instance in Where the Heart Is. The costuming is amazing, good acting and interesting cultural information of the times make it a superior series, in my opinion

Movie Review: A wonderful surprise
Summary: 5 Stars

I bought this on a whim as I was going taking a week off during the Christmas holidays and planned to just take it easy. Well, I could't stop watching this wonderful series. It has depth, some great acting..how can you go wrong with Mira Sorvino, although all of these actresses are truly talented. Spoil yourself..a steaming Chai latte (or martini..this will last well into cocktail hour ;) ) , bag of popcorn and turn the phone off .. great way to spend a winter day.

Movie Review: The one we've been waiting for!
Summary: 5 Stars

This is it! This mini-series originally played here in the U.S. on PBS's Masterpiece Theatre. It's great! Romance, tragedy...it's got it all! I've been looking for this to come out on DVD for years! Occassionally you'll come across old, used VHS copies on ebay that go for over $100.00. Get it now, on DVD for under 10 bucks! If you like historical romances, this movie is for you. Terrific acting, beautiful sets, great story. Don't miss it, you'll treasure it!
