DVD Reviews of SeptemberDVD Review: Found movie very good Summary: 5 StarsSeptember was a good movie
I did not read the book so was not disappointed in the movie
I found it very true to most movies
The actors followed thru with their ability to act out the scenes
I found the mystery to be good at the end.
The leading character actors were excellent
the movie did not dwell on filth or bad language, which is what I grade a movie to be good.
The theme followed thru and was excellent in presentation
I will buy the DVD and watch it again.
I was very disappointed in the reviews and do not accept their thoughts
thanks for a opportunity to comment.

DVD Review: Interesting enough to make me want to read the book. Summary: 3 StarsI have never read the book and happened upon this movie blindly when it was broadcast on cable. The length of the movie (3 hours) intrigued me and I recorded it to watch later. Because I didn't know the movie was based on a book, I was confused for a while as to what the deal with this film was. Was it originally a 2-night miniseries which turned into 3 hours with all the commercials cut out? Had it ever been in theaters? The dialogue seemed very melodramatic, compulsory and not well-fleshed out. Scenes seemed dropped into the movie out of thin air, and I highly suspect reading the book would be necessary to get a better feeling for these characters.
Another review said there was a casting mistake in Michael York. I wouldn't know, he seemed to fit in well to me. I did have a hard time picturing Mariel Hemingway in her role, though, and I could not for the life of me picture her in a marriage with Michael York. Zero chemistry. Likewise when her old boyfriend comes from the United States, I found it really difficult to see how Mariel and he would also have such instant and overwhelming chemistry. The casting was just really weird there.
All in all, I did watch the whole movie, but I wouldn't say it's one for the bookshelf in your home. On the other hand, there was enough there so that I am looking forward to ordering the book. I have no doubt that as other people say, it's a worthy read.
DVD Review: September Summary: 2 StarsI have never been as disappointed in a movie as I have with September. The scenery is lovely as are the homes, you like to know where to place your characters when you are reading a book. I have read September twice and I loved it. When the movie ended, I thought it was a joke! Even though I knew there was only one DVD in the package, I had to look to be sure I wasn't imagining things. The movie just ended! No story lines were wrapped up. What was Pandora talking to Carlos about on the phone? Why did they find Virginia's shawl in the loch and not Pandora's fur coat on the shore? If I hadn't read the book, I would have thought they found Virginia's body in the loch! What about the big party? What about Lottie? What about Henry going to school? What were they thinking?
DVD Review: Disappointing Soap Opera Summary: 1 StarsIf you enjoyed the book, I wouldn't recommend the DVD. Some fine actors, but the characters have none of the charm or depth that they have in the book. In fact, the portrayals are not at all true to the book. It appeared to be a cheesy made for TV miniseries: Part soap opera, part horror story.
DVD Review: Rosamunde's SEPTEMBER excellently done! Summary: 5 StarsRosamunde's SEPTEMBER was a joy to watch! Even although the story was altered in just two places it in no way detracted and the performances of the characters was excellent. The scenery was magnificent and I would say this is a MUST for Rosamunde Pilcher lovers.
