Rating: 1 stars
Summary: This video really sucked
Review: At first, the movie was really good, but then it started. The small soldiers and gorgonites did not blend in with the backround, there was too much violence, and the comedy just wasnt funny. You would be better off buying another movie.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Fun, suburban war 'Toy Story'
Review: Hey, ignore the extreme reactions that this film has generated. If you think you might enjoy a funny satire of gung-ho, war movie types, give this a try. Fans of Joe Dante's earlier films, especially GREMILNS 1 & 2 and INNERSPACE, know that his films are not very well aimed at juvenile audiences, and with SMALL SOLDIERS this still hold true. There are moments that are too intense and scary for younger children, but very entertaining for older siblings and parents. Chip Hazard is a G.I. Joe from hell, to be sure, and Tommy Lee Jones imbues him a rigid, Patton-esque manner that is hillarious. Not quite Oscar worthy, SMALL SOLDIERS is still great fun, and the DVD transfer looks beautiful. The disc comes with many extras, including those deleted scenes that many cinefiles salivate over (but we must ask ourselves "Why?" sometimes!)

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: Commandos Vs. Gorgonites What a fight!
Review: I thought it was a must see for most action lovers. It is a must buy for all DVD collectors.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I am 31 years old, and can watch this movie over & over!!!
Review: This move was great. I enjoyed watching it by-myself, and with the kids, and look foward to seeing it again.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Fun movie, just enjoy it.
Review: This movie was inventive and fun. Of course it was ridiculous, but it was well acted and well done overall. The voices are superb (especially Tommy Lee Jones). Don't expect this movie to appeal to your intellect (good grief, it isn't supposed to!), and you won't be at all disappointed

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Excellent, but...
Review: It was a great movie. Dreamworks has a wonderful use of effects in this great movie. But it's all action figures. If there were more people than it would be better.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This Movie has it all
Review: I strongly feel that it is the best movie of the summer if not the year. Parents who complain of its violence should consider why they showed this PG-13 movie to a four year old and open their narrow minds to the fact that it is a thouroughly entertaining movie for any child mature enough to watch it.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: THIS TOY STORY NOT FOR KIDS
Review: Sure it's got toys aplenty that'll make your kids' MOST WANTED X-Mas list, and nifty computer animation just like Toy Story... but parents don't let that fool you, this ain't no Disney flick! When, in the first ten minutes of the movie, we're introduced to shock comedian Dennis Lehry you know this isn't for your little ones. Heck, through the whole thing it earns its PG-13 rating in strides. It's even more violent than the comedy/horror film it basically borrows from, Gremlins.

For those young adults and those young at heart, to whom this film is really geared towards, there's enough "inside jokes" and inuendos to keep you in stitches. For those die hard film buffs, director Joe Dante and crew basically made a SFX war between the vetran actors in The Dirty Dozen versus the wacky misfits from This Is Spinal Tap, with homage paid to any number of war and action movies including a little nod to the opening sequence in Patton (with music to boot), and of course Joe Dante's previous classics Gremlins and InnerSpace.

On a sadder note, this was Phil Hartman's final performance before his untimely death. The movie was dedicated to his memory.

With the extra supplemental section, and 16x9 anamorphically enhanced widescreen video (gives an additional bonus to those lucky enough to own 16x9 TVs with higher resolution), it's a keeper.
