MacArthur (1977)

"A woefully overblown biography with a wooden Indian Peck as MacArthur. He poses instead of acts."

Magnum Force (1973)

"one of the best in the Dirty Harry series. a tough drama with Eastwood at top form."

Major League 2 (1994)

"A real foul ball; another in a plethora of unnecessary sequels."

The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance (1962)

"John Ford at his dark and brooding best. Lee Marvin is great. Stewart is too old to play the young lawyer. Wayne is solid. A Valentine to the West that was found only in legend"

The Manchurian Candidate (2004)

" For now the goal is not world domination to further an ideology, but political power to boost profits. Such a comedown. "

Mandrake the Magician (1939)

"Mandrake, the Magician is a fun-filled, campy introduction to the serials of Columbia. And VCI’s fine transfer will help heighten your enjoyment."

The Manster (1959)

"A different kind of horror film; a Japanese-American co-production that works in spurts."

The March of the Wooden Soldiers (1934)

"A delightful treasure, especially in its uncut, original Babes in Toyland release."

Mars Needs Women (1967)

"And we don't need this movie!"

Marx Brothers Collection (1935)

" The movies, of course, are timeless, and even the weakest of the MGM titles offers delightful tidbits of byplay among the brothers. "

Mary Shelley's Frankenstein (1994)

"An interesting concept by Branagh, and a touching De Niro performance. It is hit-and-miss at times, a bit overwrought."

The Masked Marvel (1943)

" For sheer action, thrills and enjoyment, The Masked Marvel is one of the best-paced serials from the Republic studio."

The Matador (2005)

" The Matador is a delight. Brosnan displays a wonderful flair for comedy, while Kinnear is perfectly in tune as his shocked, straight-arrow foil. "

The Matrix Reloaded (2003)

"For all its technological brilliance, the brothers’ script undercuts the illusion, as the dialogue sounds as if it should be delivered comic book-style, in balloons over the actors’ heads."

The Matrix Revolutions (2003)

" . . . It all seems so cold, so technological. This final chapter should have been the most human, the most emotionally charged of movies, but it ultimately leaves you dazed and confused."

McCabe & Mrs. Miller (1971)

"Beatty, Christie and Altman make an unbeatable combination."

Meet Me in St. Louis (1944)

"The real advantage of this film on DVD is the ability to freeze frame and admire director Vincente Minnelli's sets and his camera composition."

The Men (1950)

" Unfortunately, this Artisan Home Entertainment disc offers no extras, which is a shame. It would have been interesting to learn more about Brando’s first film. "

Merry Christmas, Mr. Lawrence (1983)

"An interesting venture, a bit slow at times."

Meteor (1979)

"A grab-the-money-and-run disaster opus with a slumming Connery and Wood ludicrious as a Russian scientist. Too bad the set wasn't hit by a giant falling space rock."

Mighty Joe Young (1949)

"Great Willis O'Brien effects, a good story and fine cast. A wonderful fantasy, not as good as King Kong, but still fun to watch."

Millions (2005)

"(Millions) ... proclaims a heartwarming optimism about the joys and rewards of virtue and good deeds."

Misery (1990)

"Bates deserves her Oscar as the psychopath fan; a deft blending of comedy and horror."

The Missing (2003)

" The two-disc set is loaded with extras, including 11 deleted scenes, three alternate endings and an outtake reel. "
