Awakenings / The Fisher King

Great Movies and Great Value.

I knew I loved these movies before I bought them - who doesn't love Robin Williams - but these two movies he is at the top of his game! A wonderful combination of his humor, his lovingkindness and compassion, his awareness of human trials, his dramatic skill that draw us all into his heart, These two movies both bring a sense of hope, happiness, awareness and humor to very tragic conditions without minimizing the tragedy. Wonderfully directed, performed and edited by all involved. Robin Williams, we can't help loving and missing you!

great videos. How can you miss with Robin Williams and Jeff Bridges and DeNiro. Really. Fast delivery, nicely packaged, exact;y what I wanted. The Fisher King is, in my humble opinion, Robin's best dramatic performance but the movie is difficult to watch; it's a harsh reality and has a turn that is both revealing and oh so hard to see. Still, a great movie.Awakening, based upon a true story, is a gem all it's own. More serious than many of his movies, it is still a great film; hear-wrenching and hopeful.

I originally was looking for films done by Robin Williams, when I came across this double-feature. Robin Williams is an incredible entertainer. Very humorous and spontaneous but has creatively expanded is art in serious film making. In Awakenings he is so believable and passionate. A film based on a true story, Robin pulls you into the character and emotions of the doctor, the staff and the patients. And Robert De Niro excelled in his acting and living in character. This is a truly must see film!The Fisher King is a passable film. Robin Williams one again did an incredible job in playing his character. However the film just did not hit the tops of my must see again films. This movie is enjoyable but will probably not be watched again.

I love both of these movies. Robin Williams at his best. Both films give Robin the opportunity to show the sweet touching and very human side of a brilliant and intelligent actor/comedian. Robert De Niro is luminous in this exquisite performance. Awesome. Not to be out done by his aforementioned peers, Jeff Bridges gives a stellar performance as a supreme egoist who finds his humanity restored with the help of a homeless mad man. Two great movies in one package! What's not to love.

I have watched these movies many times before purchasing them and just had to have them for my own. Not only because Robin Williams will not be entertaining us anymore, but because there are awesome messages in these movies. Since I have a terminal illness, movies and audiobooks are my prime source of entertainment and these are "feel good" movies. Everyone should see them. Great seller and very fast delivery. Thank you.

I really enjoyed both of these films with the late great Robin Williams, and the supporting actors. Ones' ending was sad and poignant the others' ending, was happy and poignant. I thoroughly enjoyed both of them. Great acting by everyone, and directing by Penny Marshall and other directors and producers. Thanks for both of these films, Robin Williams was a very versatile actor. He will be sorely missed by me and all. Janet.

This are both good movies, De Niro is brillant in awakenings as is Robin Williams and with a bit of humour although mostly as thought provocking sad movie. The fisher King is also a very good movie and Williams and Bridges do a fine job acting it out. You do need to stay with this one to actually understand the different ways that all we can change peoples lifes with our actions wether intentionally or not.Cheers. Rick.

Excellent buy, great price
