    Don Knotts in Pleasantville is canny casting. He was perfect. Sweet and a little creepy around the edges.

      Why did he complain about the color at one point and then at the end he seems happy?

    This show itself?!
    A very nicely running masterwork on how to make a fantastic movie critic show! RIP, Gene Siskel and Roger Ebert! ☝🏻🥲

      Let's just remember this: They sucked originally. It took them time to build up the chemistry on PBS so at this point you can see they are pros.

    Just re-watched Pleasantville. Still very good but falls flat in it's second half, little heavy handed on the social stuff and 4 love stories. Has it's moments though for sure.

    This was uncomfortable to watch, seeing Siskel speaking slowly and slurring his words.

      Watch his last few shows. It's very difficult to see Roger have to play softball criticism with Gene. Also, I noticed Gene was basically giving thumbs up to almost everything at that point.

    I agreed with Gene and Roger, too. I really loved "The Lion King II: Simba's Pride" a lot more. I also agreed what Gene said that this movie is not originally released in movie theaters, but directly into video stores. This was the final draft gradually became a variation and it was influenced by William Shakespeare's "Romeo & Juliet." Though, it's not as good as the original, but it does follow the story very well, and I loved the love romance between Kiara and Kovu. Anyway, I really loved this movie a lot, probably my favorite sequel. A marginal thumbs up for me on "The Lion King II: Simba's Pride".
    The Lion King II: Simba's Pride (1998) 3.5/4 👍👍👍

    La Vita e Bella is derivative of the 1976 Oscar-nominated German film "Jakob the Liar" (which was, interestingly, remade 23 years later starring Robin Williams in a dour performance).

    It has been many years since I saw Life Is Beautiful, but I remember finding it highly obnoxious. I'm surprised these guys liked it. Talk about watering down the Holocaust. Also, that lead actor is one of those types you either really like or can't stand. By the time I saw L.I.B., I was already in the latter camp because of his take on The Pink Panther. (Both he and Steve Martin should have left the Pink Panther movies alone.) I never saw his version of Pinocchio, but it looks pretty horrendous, too.

      I think it is pretty good, it may have aged a little poorly, comes off as overly earnest. But the acting and production design are terrific.
