Editorial Review:

Description:
Jim Moore is a tough-as-nails Drill Instructor with a chip on his shoulder: Pvt. Owens, who isn't quite up to snuff. Sgt. Moore is convinced that 'there's a man underneath that baby powder' and sets out to force the private to rise to the occasion. Instead, he drives Owens to bail out altogether. Things only get worse when the Captain steps in and gives Moore three days to make the a Marine out of the petrified private.

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Good service
I was happy with my service from this retailer. Shipping was slow, but video was in great condition. This is a hard to find item, so I was impressed that it was in such good condition.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great entertainment and realism too :)
* The first time I saw the D.I. movie was back in the summer of 1987 when I was going through Marine Corps boot camp on Parris Island, South Carolina. The heat and sand fleas are legendary in that area as any recruit will tell you. I saw the movie more recently and the basic premise is just as I remembered it: even the most screwed up recruit can make it through boot camp if they put their mind to it.

I suspect the movie will have the greatest appeal to those who had the privilege of going through Marine Corps boot camp, especially Parris Island. I'm sure those who enjoy boot camp scenes like those in the Full Metal Jacket movie will also appreciate the film. The D.I. movie does a fairly realistic job of portraying the general atmosphere of Marine Corps boot camp and it might be a good wake up call for those who are about to enjoy the experience :)

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The Time Has Come For A DVD Release!!!
This is not a review of "The D.I.," because everybody already knows it's a classic and a must-see for everyone, military or not. Instead, this is a plea to the movie studio who owns the rights to "The D.I."

I know some studio, or somebody, has the rights to this movie. I can get a bootleg version, probably copied from Turner Classic Movies or AMC, but I want an official, digitally remastered version of this timeless classic. Why won't the studios wake up??? They could easily sell a million copies of this movie the minute it's released. It's a no-brainer.
Does anyone know who owns the rights to this film? Is there a write-in campaign somewhere that allows us to voice to the studio that we want this great film on DVD???
Have the rest of you noticed that the bulk of recent DVD releases are television shows and reissued movies that have previously been released? What is going on? There are so many wonderful older movies from the forties, fifties, sixties and seventies that NEED to be released on DVD, and the studios give us TV shows.

Where's "Rolling Thunder?" "Tell Them Willie Boy Is Here?" "Abandon Ship?" "Death Of A Gunfighter?" "Heroes of Telemark?" "Night of The Juggler?"

Movie studios, are you listening?



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - HOORAH!
* HOKEY STORY LINE BUT MARINES WILL WAX NOSTALGIC AT THE ACCURATE PORTRAYAL OF THE TRAINING AND DISCIPLINE PROVIDED AT PARRIS ISLAND. I SPENT MY TIME THERE FROM 10/62 - 2/63. IT SEEMS LIKE YESTERDAY. I BOUGHT THIS USED THROUGH A RESELLER ON AMAZON AND THE SERVICE WAS EXCELLENT AND THE CONDITION WAS AS DESCRIBED. ...



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The D.I.
The D.I. is a classic. I have it recorded on VHS, but would love to have it on DVD. Why it is not available yet is anyone's guess. This is my favorite of all of the basic training movies. "Was your sandflea a male or female?" "Keep looking!" Fantastic!

The Academy Award winner for Best Picture, Best Director Robert Zemeckis, and Best Actor Tom Hanks, this unlikely story of a slow-witted but good-hearted man somehow at the center of the pivotal events of the 20th century is a funny and heartwarming epic. Hanks plays the title character, a shy Southern boy in love with his childhood best friend (Robin Wright) who finds that his ability to run fast takes him places. As an All-Star football player he meets John F. Kennedy; as a soldier in Vietnam he's a war hero; and as a world champion Ping-Pong player he's hailed by Richard Nixon. Becoming a successful shrimp-boat captain, he still yearns for the love of his life, who takes a quite different and much sadder path in life. The visual effects incorporating Hanks into existing newsreel footage is both funny and impressive, but the heart of the film lies in its sweet love story and in the triumphant performance of Hanks as an unassuming soul who savors the most from his life and times. --Robert Lane

Gina Prince-Bythewood, a former college athlete, puts a spin on this one-on-one tale of Love and Basketball. Sanaa Lathan (The Best Man) is the fiercely driven, hot-tempered Monica, a tomboy who gives her all for basketball. Omar Epps (The Mod Squad) is Quincy, an NBA player's son who has pro dreams of his own. Next-door neighbors since first grade, they start as rivals (she flabbergasts the boy by outplaying him in a game of driveway pickup) and age into best friends and lovers. The romantic complications follow a familiar game plan, but the film throws a fascinating spotlight onto the contrast between men's and women's basketball. While Quincy plays college ball on huge courts to cheering, sold-out crowds, we see Monica's sweat, tears, and sheer physical dedication in front of tiny audiences in small gyms and second-rate auditoriums.

The story is pointedly set in the late 1980s, years before the establishment of the WNBA, so Monica's prospects for pro ball lie exclusively in Europe, while Quincy steps into the pros at home. It's a pleasure to see a character as passionate and fully developed as Monica, and Lathan gives a fiery portrayal (she had never played ball before the film, but you'd never tell from her performance). Prince-Bythewood favors her struggle over Quincy's and opens our eyes to her unique challenges with a sharp, savvy contrast. Alfre Woodard costars as Monica's harping mom (always trying to get her to be more ladylike) and Dennis Haysbert is Quincy's philandering father. Hoops fan Spike Lee produced. --Sean Axmaker

Now you can just drop your pedometer in your purse to find out how much exercise you get in a typical day of work, errands, and other tasks.

Of course, the device can also function as a handy and highly accurate clock. It also comes with a detachable belt holder and security strap so it's always close at hand.

The HJ-112 is powered by a replaceable lithium battery (CR2032) that will last six months when used for walking 10,000 steps a day. The device measures approximately 2.8 x 2.1 x .6 inches (H x W x D) and weighs 1.1 ounces (not including battery).
