Stand by Me (DVD, 2000, Special Edition)

This film has some rough language..but the sweetness and purity of this film outshines that single negative..A wonderfully written script, a stellar acting cast Wil Wheaton, the late River Phoenix (you are missed), Corey Feldman, Jerry O'Connell and of course Kiefer Sutherland are remarkable for their then young ages..set in the 1950's the viewer is allowed to spend time with four young boys as they set out on a once in a lifetime adventure..you will laugh, cry and rejoice as they come of age in their own innocent way..We loved everything about this movie..if this movie touches or touched you the same way it touched us then watch "Stephen Kings It"! "Stand by Me" is a spectacular film for kids of all ages..

I first saw this movie years ago, so when I saw it I purchased it. It has great actors, with a beautifully narrated story. There is swearing which to me was the biggest con of the movie, I am not too sure that kids swore like that in the 1950's. I maybe naive yet the movie would have carried itself fine without the off color language. The death scene may upset younger kids, so parents should preview first to decide if they will want their children see it, (I let mine see it at age 13 and up). I myself, found it a thought provoking movie about life, friends, and death. River Phoenix, sadly dies a tragic death only a few years after making this film. I will always remember him as Chris, young, misunderstood, with a good heart willing to do anything to keep the peace.

This movie is awesome. If you like old school movies, you'll love it. Keifer Sutherland does an outstanding job at portraying the bad guy and Corey Feldman was by far the best actor in the group of young boys. Watching this also takes you back to the time when you were a kid and went/wanted to go on crazy adventures for seemingly trivial reasons. Highly recommended to everyone. Has a comedic side, an adventure element, and a touch of drama all mixed together in one film.

One of my favorite movies. A classic that everyone should see!! It's simply supurb acting and casting all around. I definately think it's a movie everyone can relate to, because we all have had friends like the characters in the film at some point in our lives.

Stand by Me is one of the most heart-warming movies I have ever seen. The story starts in a small town in Oregon, where there is a rumor spreading that a young boy has been hit and killed by a train. When Chris, Teddy, Vern, and Gordie hear about this, they think it would be a great adventure to go on before the end of summer, and the recognition from finding the boy doesn't hurt, either. The boys encounter many frightening things, including run-away trains, junk yard dogs, and an older gang of boys also looking for the body. But they not only find the body, but also a bond of friendship no one will forget. I highly recomend Stand By Me, but not to smaller children because it does have some language in it.

THIS IS A MOVIE FOR THE FAMILY. LOVED IT AS MUCH THIS TIME AS I DID WHEN IT WAS RELEASED AND SO DID MY KIDS.
IT'S A TIMELESS BUDDY/COMING OF AGE MOVIE WITH GREAT PERFORMANCES BY THE CAST.

Love this movie. Saw this years ago, and its a movie you can watch over & over and never get tired of it

son wanted it. has already seen this movie 10 times. he wanted it on dvd for his collection and is very pleased with owning it.

The product description was very accurate! And I was impressed by how it didn't skip, and how there weren't any problems with it. I bought it for my boyfriend for Christmas, because that was one of his favorite movies!

We bought this movie to bring a little of our childhood into our children's lives. We have family night once a week and this movie was enjoyed by all of us.

This one is a great movie and an absolute classic. It definately captures the innocence and trials of youth and paved the way for the young actors in the movie.

Despite some naughty words, my family enjoys this movie time and time again. It is a great story of childhood friendship and growing up.

Very fast shipping, good communication. would buy from them again. very satisfied with the conditions of the movie.

It barely worked. we couldn't really watch it. It skipped and randomly stopped to the point that it was not worth even keeping it or trying anymore to watch it.

We really enjoyed this movie because it is exciting and so real, we have watched this on T.V.,many times but we can't help but to watch it again and again! Great cast!

Great movie, always has been. Ezcellent choice of characters, brilliant directing. The special features on this version showed some nice insight on how Rob Reiner directed the kids. The interview with Stephen King wss a plus as well.
