House of Cards Reviews:
Much better than the one I taped! lol 
2008-10-12 - The DVD I got was in great condition, no scratched - no damage that I could see. There are a couple of little editing quirks, but they were there before it was put on DVD. I'm quite happy with my purchase.
Would have been good except for the ending 
2007-03-24 - I won't give the details but the movie starts out rather strong. Asha Menina, who plays "Sally" out-acted all of her more famous adult counterparts -- and a site listed her as being 8 at the time!!! Oddly this is her only credited movie/tv appearance. My wife and I were like "Wow...she can act". However, just as the plot thickens and the movie is getting really good...it ends...with a nice wrapped up in a bow total resolution practically ex deus machina style ending... My wife, teenager and I all looked at each other in disbelief like "that's it?". Other reviewers wondered if the movie was messed with a bit much in post-production. There is probably good reason for that.

I found the Story-Line very captivating. Kathleen Turner protraid her character as a Mother coming to grips with a problem "out-of-the-blue" very convincingly.
I could not stop watching.
Life's Mysteries
2006-03-21 - This is an excellent movie for the whole family. It features Kathleen Turner in a mature role and Tommy Lee Jones in a more serious (Less action-figure) role. It deals with loss, grief and how it affects each of us differently. It also shows one family's strength in overcoming their loss in a very unique and intriguing way. I highly recommend this movie to everyone.
