DVD Reviews of Oscar

DVD Review: Avoid this company! Less than one star.
Summary: 1 Stars

How can I review a product I have never received? I've already paid for them, yet the three movies I ordered from that company have never arrived. All phone calls and emails to the company have gone unanswered and unreturned. What else can I do except say "to the buyer beware". I will never use that company again - and to be perfectly honest with you, since they popped up from your site, it paints Amazon in a less than favorable light with me. (And with the many others I've shared this experience with.)

DVD Review: Great movie in Great condition
Summary: 5 Stars

Oscar is a hilarious movie that I've been trying to get a hold of for quite some time, granted that the movie is kind of a quick/sly humor it's really funny, and clean too! I highly recommend this movie to anyone even if you're not a Sylvester Stallone fan.

DVD Review: Fantastic!
Summary: 5 Stars

I love this movie. I love the story, and I love the notion that Sylvester Stallone is starring in a movie that reminds me of a French farce. I highly recommend it.

DVD Review: Excellent and So Funny!!
Summary: 5 Stars

Description of Oscar

Hollywood superstar Sylvester Stallone teams up with comedy director John Landis (ANIMAL HOUSE, TRADING PLACES, COMING TO AMERICA), and the results are hilarious! Stallone plays Chicago's #1 gangster, "Snaps" Provolone. After promising his father that he'll quit his life of crime, Snaps realizes it's an offer he should have refused! As the mobster tries to quit the rackets, everybody gets into the act -- friends, family -- even the Feds! Snaps soon discovers going straight is the toughest job he's ever pulled! Critics coast-to-coast praised this fun-filled big-screen treat -- you'll find it packed with laughs from beginning to end!
Oscar was Sylvester Stallone's agreeable, 1991 effort at broad comedy, a fast-talking, suspender-snapping gangster farce featuring the Rambo star as a 1930s Chicago mob boss, Snaps Provolone, trying to go straight during overlapping personal crises. No, this isn't Billy Wilder, but director John Landis (Coming to America) has crackling fun with Oscar's fruit salad of traditional comic themes and tools, including mistaken identities, a powerful man's weakness for his children, and a nonstop parade of outre secondary characters. The cast includes Kirk Douglas as Stallone's father, whose deathbed wish compels Snaps to go into legitimate banking at the exact moment the latter's daughter (Marisa Tomei) announces her love for a chauffeur. Meanwhile, another woman claiming to be Snaps's offspring is engaged to a fellow (Vincent Spano) who has stolen $50,000 of the big man's money. Wackiness ensues. The winning cast includes Peter Riegert, Don Ameche, Chazz Palminteri, Eddie Bracken, Harry Shearer, Yvonne DeCarlo, and Bruce Davison. --Tom Keogh
