ONVIDEO'S WEEKLY GUIDE TO HOME VIDEO RELEASES
FOR TUESDAY, September 28 -- MONDAY, October 4
ALAMO, THE
Action-packed but ultimately boring film that tells the dramatic
true story of one of the most momentous battles in American
history. A handful of men stand up for what they passionately
believed in, and fought for their country against overwhelming
odds. In the spring of 1836, in the face of insurmountable odds,
fewer than 200 ordinary men who believed in the future of Texas
held the fort for 13 days against thousands of Mexican soldiers
led by dictator General Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna, ruler of
Mexico. Commanded by three men -- the young, brash Lt. Col.
William Travis (Patrick Wilson); the zealous, passionate James
Bowie (Jason Patric); and the living legend David Crockett (Billy
Bob Thornton) -- the Texans would die for their beliefs, but
their deeds at the Alamo would make history as General Sam
Houston's (Dennis Quaid) emotional rallying call for Texas
independence. Director: John Lee Hancock. Stars: Billy Bob
Thornton, Dennis Quaid, Jason Patric, Patrick Wilson, Emilio
Echevarria. 2004, CC, MPAA rating: PG-13, 136 min., Western, Box
office gross: $22.172 million, Buena Vista, $24.99 VHS SRP. DVD:
Day & Date.
ENVY
Ben Stiller and Jack Black star as Tim and Nick, best friends,
neighbors and co-workers, whose equal footing is suddenly tripped
up when one of Nick's harebrained get-rich-quick schemes actually
succeeds: Vapoorizer, a spray that literally makes dog poop
evaporate into thin air -- to where exactly is anyone's guess.
Tim, who had scoffed at Nick's idea and passed on an opportunity
to get in on the deal, can only watch as Nick's fortune -- and
Tim's own envy -- grow to equally outrageous proportions. When
the flames of jealousy are fanned by an oddball drifter
(Christopher Walken) who imposes himself into the situation,
Tim's life careens wildly out of control ... taking Nick's with
it. Director: Barry Levinson. Stars: Ben Stiller, Jack Black,
Rachel Weisz, Amy Poehler, Christopher Walken. 2004, CC, MPAA
rating: PG-13, 99 min., Comedy, Box office gross: $12.181
million, DreamWorks, $15.95 VHS SRP. DVD: Day & Date.
ETERNAL SUNSHINE OF THE SPOTLESS MIND
Wild comedy in which a man, Joel (Jim Carrey), discovers that his
girlfriend Clementine (Kate Winslet) has had her memories of
their tumultuous relationship erased by a new psycho-
technological process. Out of desperation, he contacts the
inventor of the process, Dr. Howard Mierzwiak (Tom Wilkinson), to
have Clementine removed from his own memory. But as Joel's
memories progressively disappear, he begins to rediscover his
love for Clementine. From deep within the recesses of his brain,
Joel attempts to escape the procedure. As Dr. Mierzwiak and his
crew (Kirsten Dunst, Mark Ruffalo, Elijah Wood) chase him through
the maze of his memories, it's clear that Joel just can't get
Clementine out of his head. Wonderfully disjointed screenplay has
the relationship between Joel and Clementine unfold backwards, as
his memories slowly are eliminated. But can the destruction of
our memories of experiences change what those experiences have
made us become? Change-of-pace performances for both Carrey --
who here is quiet and withdrawn -- and Winslet -- who plays a
wild, outrageous, impulsive American. All the memory sequences --
with bits and pieces of Joel's past disappearing on the screen --
were done sans special effects. A delightful outing for all
involved. Director: Michael Gondry. Stars: Jim Carrey, Kate
Winslet, Gerry Robert Byrne, Elijah Wood, Mark Ruffalo, Jane
Adams, Kirsten Dunst, Tom Wilkinson. 2004, CC, MPAA rating: R,
108 min., Comedy, Box office gross: $34.126 million, Universal,
$22.98 VHS SRP. DVD: Day & Date.
HUNTING OF THE PRESIDENT, THE
There can be no doubt that we live in one of the most tumultuous
political climates of the nation's history, a climate where
politicians can be toppled on a whim, election results disputed
in the country's highest courts, and governors unceremoniously
recalled. It's enough to leave even the most cynical voter
asking, how did this happen? Harry Thomason and Nickolas Perry's
incendiary documentary, based on the best-selling book by Gene
Lyons and Joe Conason, offers a glimpse at the genesis of these
partisan vendettas and explores the myths and truths behind the
nearly 10-year campaign to systematically destroy the political
legacy of the Clintons. Using previously unreleased materials,
interviews, and shocking revelations from both sides of the
beltway, this probing work focuses on the smear campaign against
Clinton from his gubernatorial days in Arkansas leading up to and
including his impeachment trial. Kenneth Starr fans, beware. Less
of an advocacy film and more of an alarming treatise on the
political power of the media and personal interests, "The Hunting
of the President" offers us a gallery of defeated politicians,
disappointed office seekers, right-wing pamphleteers, wealthy
eccentrics, zany private detectives, religious fanatics, and die-
hard segregationists, all chiming in discord from the tops of
their soapboxes. Director: Nickolas Perry, Harry Thomason. Stars:
Narrator: Morgan Freeman. 2004, CC, MPAA rating: NR, 90 min.,
Documentary, Fox. DVD: Only.
SUPER SIZE ME
Why are Americans so fat? Find out in "Super Size Me," a tongue
in-cheek -- and burger in hand -- look at the legal, financial
and physical costs of America's hunger for fast food. Ominously,
37% of American children and adolescents are carrying too much
fat and 2 out of every three adults are overweight or obese. Is
it our fault for lacking self-control, or are the fast-food
corporations to blame? Filmmaker Morgan Spurlock hit the road and
interviewed experts in 20 U.S. cities, including Houston, the
"Fattest City" in America. From Surgeon Generals to gym teachers,
cooks to kids, lawmakers to legislators, these authorities shared
their research, opinions and "gut feelings" on our ever-expanding
girth. During the journey, Spurlock also put his own body on the
line, living on nothing but McDonald's for an entire month with
three simple rules: 1) No options: he could only eat what was
available over the counter (water included!) 2) No supersizing
unless offered 3) No excuses: he had to eat every item on the
menu at least once. It all adds up to a fat food bill, harrowing
visits to the doctor, and compelling viewing for anyone who's
ever wondered if man could live on fast food alone. The film
explores the horror of school lunch programs, declining health
and physical education classes, food addictions and the extreme
measures people take to lose weight and regain their health.
"Super Size Me" is a satirical jab in the stomach, overstuffed
with fat and facts about the billion-dollar industry besieged by
doctors, lawyers and nutritionists alike. "Would you like fries
with that?" will never sound the same! Director: Morgan Spurlock.
2004, CC, MPAA rating: NR, 96 min., Documentary, Box office
gross: $10.042 million, Columbia TriStar, No VHS SRP, Priced for
rental. DVD: Day & Date.
WALKING TALL
Retired U.S. Special Forces soldier Chris Vaughn (The Rock) has
come home to renew old relationships and make a new life for
himself. But while Chris was away, his boyhood town wasted away
to a dilapidated, crime-ridden shell of itself. His wealthy high
school rival, Jay Hamilton (Neal McDonough), has closed the once-
prosperous lumber mill and has turned the town's resources
towards criminal gains. The place Chris grew up is now overrun
with crime, drugs, and violence. Enlisting the help of his old
pal Ray Templeton (Johnny Knoxville), Chris gets elected sheriff
and vows to shut down Hamilton's operations. His actions endanger
his family and threaten his own life, but Chris refuses to back
down until his hometown once again feels like home. With Ray as
his deputy, Chris sets out to clean up the mess Hamilton has
made: he wields a huge stick fashioned from lumber mill pine. The
first big screen version of "Walking Tall," starring Joe Don
Baker as real-life Tennessee Sheriff Buford Pusser, debuted in
1973 and was a huge grassroots hit. Its two sequels, "Walking
Tall Part II" (1975) and "Final Chapter: Walking Tall" (1977),
starred Bo Svenson as Sheriff Pusser and were also popular,
memorable versions of the lawman's heroic stand against crime in
his small, rural Southern town. The Rock here ably fills the
shoes of his predecessors and cleans up on the bad guys.
Vengeance is sweet ... at least on the big screen. Director:
Kevin Bray. Stars: The Rock, Neal McDonough, Johnny Knoxville,
Ashley Scott. 2004, CC, MPAA rating: PG-13, 86 min., Action, Box
office gross: $45.138 million, MGM, No VHS SRP, Priced for
rental. DVD: Day & Date.
