Revisiting Romancing the Stone.......2007-08-12
Still a fun movie to watch. At the time it was the first of the Romance/Adventure movies. Great cast that really looked like they had a blast filming the movie. The interviews in the Special Features were a pleasure to watch. Always thought this one was WAY better than the follow-up Jewel of the Nile.
Jesse and Joan.......2007-08-11
Go though the jungle of Colombia, running in to Ralph, Ira, Zolo, Elaine( not at the same time).
A classic. .......2007-08-09
Romancing the Stone starring Michael Douglas, Kathleen Turner, and Danny Devito is still one of the best and thrilling films of the '80s. Douglas and Turner have amazing chemistry and hey they did three movies together and this film is magic everytime I watch it. Devito is a hoot and the plot of the film is oh so cool! Turner plays a romance novelist who must save her sister's life after she's been kidnapped by Columbian drug lords. And along comes Douglas who helps and ends up falling in love with her. Romancing the Stone is an action-packed adventure. You gotta see this one. You will love it. Enjoy!
Fast, and in great condition.......2007-01-03
The delivery was quicker than expected, and the actual product was in perfect condition.
Finally Anamorphic.......2006-09-24
Eventhough the sound is not upgraded (Dolby Surround), the picture is. Now you can watch this extremely entertaining movie in an anamorphic widescreen. It looks nice and crisp on my 16:9 TV. Same thing goes for the sequel "Jewel of the Nile" except for a better audio sound with 4.0 surround. Hopefully Fox will release a new ANAMORPHIC version of "The Abyss" and "The edge". The latest release of "Young Frankenstein" is now available for the fist time ever in anamorphic widescreen. Audio remains MONO though, unfortunately.

Customer Reviews:
2 great movies together.......2007-03-11
This DVD set is great, whether you're a Michael Douglas, Kathleen Turner, or especially a Danny DeVito fan, or if you enjoy action/adventure movies that have a very funny side to them. There is a very sexy romance plot in addition to the adventure theme as well. Good product.
80s nostalgia.......2007-02-05
These 2 films are 2 of the most nostalgic films for me from the mid-1980s. It had been a long time since I watched them, but they remain as delightful today as they did when I first saw them on VHS in the 80s.
Michael Douglas and Kathleen Turner portray a pair of quasi-lovers thrown into rather unpredictable circumstances. Danny Devito plays a loveable bumbling bad guy who is out to convince himself that he really IS a bad guy.
The DVDs contain special features which interview the stars today and all 3 reminisce about the making of both films. The story about how the set-prop of the F-16 nearly caused an international incident is comical. There was just one downside to the interviews, and that was that Kathleen Turner (who SIZZLED in the 80s!) has not aged well @ all. I would have never recognized her. Sadly, I believe Danny Devito has aged more gracefully than she has.
If you grew up in the 80s, I would highly recommend that you pick up this DVD set to re-discover why we all loved Kathleen & Mike way back then. If you're young enough that you were not alive when the movies came out in the theatre, then you're in for a big treat. These are 2 of the funnest adventure movies ever made!
DVD review.......2007-01-19
Arrived in good time and perfect condition. Haven't watched them yet as they are a present for someone else.
Great to see an old favorite.......2007-01-03
It was great to see an old favorite on DVD. The bonus materials were great and to see both of the main characters today was great!
Romancing the Stone / Jewel of the Nile.......2006-11-05
I have loved these two movies since I was a little girl and it is so nice to be able to watch them again and again now that they are on DVD. Thank you so much!!!

Product Description
Michael Douglas and Kathleen Turner have the adventure of their lives in this hugely successful romantic caper co-starring Danny Devito. When her sister is kidnapped by thugs searching for a priceless jewel in the Colombian jungle, a romantic novelist (Turner) soon finds her own life filled with cliffhangers and danger. All alone, she sets out to rescue her sister and meets up with a handsome fortune seeker (Douglas) who convinces her to beat the bandits to the treasure.
