Summary: Maggie D's Downunder Plea
Review: Our family has seen this wonderful movie countless times.
We love the music, scenery and the interaction of characters and plot. It is the quintessential Walter Matthau at his best with Glenda Jackson well cast as his "accomplice".
Please release this on DVD! We have been waiting and watching for its release in an Australian compatible form for years.
As Barbara Streisand once said,("A Mirror Has Two Faces")
"Hurry up! I'm aging here!"

Summary: The definition of caper!
Review: This is a true spy caper filled with brilliant acting, dialogue, and directing. It panders to high art and should not be missed by anyone who enjoys a good David Lodge or Graham Greene novel. Where on earth is the DVD?

Summary: HOPSCOTCH...WATCH IT OVER AND OVER
Review: Having been a movie buff since way, way back, I can list this movie among my very favorites. Hopscotch is funny, flows flawlessly, and all actors do their parts to perfection, It can be viewed many times and is always enjoyable. Hopefully it will come out on DVD, or at least a re-issue on video.

Summary: Hopscotch
Review: This is on of the great movies that Walter Matthau stared in. He acted as it was a real life role. He plays his usual highly creditable self. All the other movies he acted in are great also. It is a loss to all Walter Matthau fans on his passing. I am still hunting for a VHS tape of DVD of this movie.

Review: This is the funniest movie that Walter Mathau ever made! I have a copy of it and have played it until it needs to be replaced! In fact I am prone to rate it the funniest movie of all time.

Summary: One of our favorite movies!
Review: This is one of those videos that comes to mind without any effort. We own some of the Motzart music used in this video and can't help but think of Walter Matthau humming along with Motzart as he drives through Europe. The simple but clever plot along with the love affair between old friends mixed with the light script held our interest through the whole video. We rent this video about twice a year and long for a DVD release or at least to find a copy of the VHS to own.

Summary: Excellent movie, MUST be released on DVD!!
Review: This has long been one of my favorite films. Matthau is at his droll, cantankerous, witty best. The romance between Matthau's and Glenda Jackson's characters is understated and nicely done. The scenery is beautiful, the soundtrack is classic(al), the bad guys are a bit cartoonish, but the humor and excitement fly, and I love this film.

Summary: Superb, implausible, but real!
Review: "Hopscotch" is one of my favorite movies. Based on a novel by Brian Garfield (who also worked on the screenplay), it's a perfect vehicle for Walter Matthau and Glenda Jackson; I consider it to be Matthau's best performance. Although the plot is totally implausible, it carries the viewer along. I think this is largely because the real world of "intelligence" is sometimes equally implausible; everyone who has had even an indirect connection with the intelligence community can relate true stories just as wacky as the episodes in this movie. Almost all of the movie is pure invention, but Garfield must have known something about the CIA; in particular, one of the characters is an extremely unflattering takeoff on Richard Bissell, including a reference to one of Bissell's worst ideas. Unfortunately, a copy of this video is hard to find for sale. But many video rental stores have a copy for rent. I wish the copyright holders would allow it to be re-released on video; perhaps some day they will. Meanwhile, if you can locate a copy, buy it; if not, rent it!
