Stephen King's The Langoliers

A good little upgrade in DVD quality
This is a technical quality review of the new disc, not a review of the film itself.

Stephen King's THE LANGOLIERS has been on DVD since the early days of the medium. Artisan Entertainment/Republic Pictures issued that old DVD back around 1999-2000. It's one I purchased way back when, but about a year ago, when I went to watch it, the disc suddenly would not play. It wouldn't read in any player or computer. It was simply dead.

Where does yesterday go?
This film held my interest from beginning to end. I liked the array of characters (some reminded me of actual people I know) and the situation they find themselves in is very unique.Couldn't wait to see what happens next. There is a moral to the story and even though it is based on fantasy, it could apply to the present. You will find out into what place yesterday fits and where it goes to its finality. Entertaining and suspenseful in the style of the master.

Love it!
Another of Stephen Kings movies I love! Great performances by a great cast! I am so glad I added this movie to my collection! :)
