I was looking for a different Jane Fonda workout...but this one is kind of fun, actually it has two separate workouts on it and the price wasn't that bad. To be perfectly honest it is worth its...
There is a large percentage of kids in America who are obese...yadda yadda...we keep hearing this.? I?was happy to read?an article today from the Canadian Press which discusses the fact that there?seems to be a?growing number of children in the U.S. between ages six to eleven who have gym memberships or who are participating in local fitness classes and activities.? I was?thrilled to learn that fitness centers are trying to appeal to the kids with whats currently popular:At Action Kids Fitness Center, with two locations in California, children can take a 40-to 45-minute circuit training workout with resistance machines and cardio stations, including stationary bikes that connect to PlayStation 2. The centre also has hip-hop dance, yoga, karate and monthly nutrition classes.And you thought video games were the enemy.? For those of you who dont already know, the Wii Fit came out recently (Dreamgear Wii Fit 5-in-1 Fitness Bundle - $79.99 on Smarter.com) and promotes kids not sitting on their bums while playing video games, but interacting physically with the games.?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Ive heard there?isnt as much movement going?on during the?games as one would imagine.? But,?I say...moving a little is still moving...period.???Im sure the makers?of the Wii Fit have heard complaints?and will hopefully improve the games to?make them a bit more high impact for their Wii Fit 2 release.Another issue that was brought up in the article was the fact that kids are not going outside?to play:?In the 50s and 60s, kids were playing and they were playing outside, he said. We didnt have all these concerns about overweight, out-of-shape kids.Sadly, many would agree that playing outside is sometimes not an option considering how high their paranoia is about living in an unsafe neighborhood.Click here to read the entire article.More alternatives are needed:Ive mentioned some of these videos before, but if you want your kids to safely work out inside the house you should check out some of these fitness videos for kids:??

I actully grew up with both of these videos. I remember that my sister, brother, and I LOVED them. Especially my brother who was the youngest of us. If you want your kids to be entertained and...
I was disappointed in this DVD which did not inform it was a kid's exercise or play program. I was looking for a Jane Fonda Adult Exercise DVD. Nobody buys a DVD for kid's to exercise...That's...
I have always admired Jane Fonda and have most of her exercise videos. I thought this one was a git-down type for adults, but it's for kids. I may not have read up on it enough on your website,...
Perfect present for a treacherous, unamerican, naive friend
Have you an American friend who hates their country, is extremely naive about politics and likes nothing more then expressing ill-informed, ludicrous views. Someone who is willing to betray their...
I bought this DVD as an alternative to to other DVDs I have that all last for about 1 h. I have a working mum and don't have time to finish them. Jane Fonda's workout only take 25 min or so. Though...
I only used this once and not again so it was money down the drain. I wish Jane Fonda did a work-out DVD like her old, original video work-outs, that were easy to follow, but worked great! I lost...
My personal feelings at the time Ms Fonda was misbehaving in Viet Nam were that she was a spoiled rich kid making an over-zealous and stupid statement regarding her feelings about the war and the...
It is now more than 30 years since the last Americans left Saigon, and while most of the embers stoked in the 1960s have cooled, the visit by anti-war activist Jane Fonda to North Vietnam still...
Jane Fonda has apologized for her ignorance. She has asked for forgiveness. She has acknowledged being young and stupid and guilty of horrible judgment for her Viet Nam antics. She has made a...
Marton speaks about the story of her parents in Hungry. She tells of their having survived Nazism and escaped Communism, of their coming to America and their loyalty to it. But the heart of her...
Sympathetic to the personal- appalled by the political
This interview had for me two distinct parts. The first, the longest, the most interesting and the part I was sympathetic to , was the personal story part. First of all, there is something...
Two family stories - Dull newsman and disconcertingly beautiful actress
Joseph Lelyveld a veteran NY Times reporter speaks to Charlie Rose about a memoir he has published. It centers on his childhood as son of a Rabbi in what he describes as a rocky marriage. It also...
I am agonizing my way through this drivel due to an assignment. OMG. By page 40 we've seen Jane talk about the everyday occurance of My Lai type massacres. Her shock at the bombing of civilian...
An interesting memoir of one of Hollywood's most notable and sometimes scandolous leading ladies. Often recieving either accolades for her performances and political activities or scorn and...
This autobiography and 'introspection' is so full of self aggrandizement that it can nearly be seen as a joke or great pathos by all but those whose lives were destroyed by the enemy--Jane...
Jane is a pretty misunderstood woman. People make judgements about her based on stories they see in the media, and based on the rhetoric of those who oppose her. I learned a lot about the real Jane...

The overall DVD is fair...it's not really any different than the VHS version except for a few extras. The extras aren't really that good anyway. The movie itself is entertaining...but the movie is...

Almost totally memorable flick: gripping possibility, great acting on Lemon's part. Needed a musical score to add some soul to a sterile background visual.
I like movies that are about whistleblowers and union workers, favorites of mine include, SILKWOOD, ERIN BROCKOVICH, and NORMA RAE. But this one is just no good at all! It is too violent, the...
It's hard to believe that this flick predated the Three Mile Island "accident". Otherwise, "China Syndrome" isn't as much topical as slightly cautionary. The film has Jane Fonda, who looks a tad...
I watched this film several times and it always had a big impact on me. It is an unusual American film, since it is more "european" or intimate in style. It is very gentle, a bit feminine,...
Another case of when I side with the minority. I didn't get through it. Decided I had much better ways to spend my time. The only thing I really enjoyed was Meryl Streep's bit. I don't whether...
Although based on a different scenario, the concept of a financial breakdown as shown in the film is much more realistic then most folks understand. An excellent film to better appreciate our...
While I can certainly argue about the cast, the plotline (given its Hollywood source) is plausible and frightening. It isn't about the Saudi's out to destroy the world or greedy bankers. It is a...
This is the film that could easily have tanked the career of lesser mortals, but the mighty Jane Fonda continued acting in six or seven subsequent films until 1992, when she married Ted Turner and...
Worth a look--- a near non-classic with a stellar cast....
This is an interesting film-- a mid-60s, moody film attempting to portray the underbelly of a small, corrupt Texas town with the honest sheriff (Marlon Brando, fine in one of his beat-me-to-a-pulp...
Considering the superb aggregation of writing and acting talent here, one would expect a much better film than this; however, the finished product proved to be far less than memorable. The script...
What a movie. That is what I can say about watching "They Shoot Horses Don't They?" earlier today. As you know the movie is set during the tail end of The Great Depression in 1934 but like what...
we watched this movie because it is a classic. maybe it would have been different on a big screen, but i was bored. the 'message' of the movie is clear in the first 10 minutes and there are no...
If You've Never Seen a Movie About a Dance Marathon...
This movie is worth seeing if you've never thought much about the dance marathons that were put on during the great depression. Who knew these things went on for over a month!? Jane Fonda's...
This movie is an evergreen that everyone would love to have in their video library. It's the last of Henry Fonda's films; and coupled with his daughter and with Katherine Hepburn, this film...
I recently saw this film for the first time. I had continually refused to watch it because of Katharine Hepburn. But curiousity made me want to see both her and Henry Fonda's Oscar Winning...
Coming Home is a sensitive portrayal of three people and how their lives were changed by the war in Vietnam. Look for wonderful acting by Jane Fonda who had to contend with a script that was not...
I love Hal Ashby, so I was greatly disappointed when I finally watched much praised Coming Home. Jane Fonda cheats on her husband while he is fighting in Vietnam war. Although she was little...
The Old Maid, the Old Gringo and the Young Revolutionary
At one level, this film focuses on the much delayed coming of age adventure for Jane Fonda's character, Harriet Winslow, who suddenly decides she has had enough of her mother-dominated spinster...
Gregory Peck, Jane Fonda, Jimmy Smits, are politically left of center. Their involvement in the filming of leftist novelist Carlos Fuentes' "Old Gringo" almost certainly expresses their own...

Others touted the outrageous comedy theme of this film which prompted me to buy it. Boy, was I disappointed. Thank goodness I bought a used copy for only a few bucks, so the financial pain was...
I enjoyed seeing Haskell Wexler in some candid moments, but I was continually rattled by the contrast between this film's portrayal of a truly accomplished cinematic artist, the elder Wexler, and...
When the movie first came out on the big screen, critics weren't too friendly with the ratings. Being a fan of Jane Fonda, Lindsay Lohan, and Felicity Huffman I really wanted to see the movie, but...
If you wish to inflict torture on yourself, watch "Georgia Rule." The abiding contempt Hollywood has for homespun values shines through. Childhood incest is anything but simple and leaves...
...but great cinematography. This film is beautiful to look at, but you can't help but know what's going to happen before it happens. Robards character is nothing more than a big baby who...
I'd rate this 4.2 stars but gave it 5 above to encourage buyers to support DVD manufacturing of smaller, more obscure titles. Consumers need more rarities to continue to surface :) ...
What were they thinking This is one of the most poorly cast movies in the history of Hollywood. Laurence Harvey is supposed to be a Texan, but he doesn't look like a cowboy/farmer and can't do...
DE NIRO AND FONDA ARE GREAT IN THIS ROMANTIC DRAMA
This is a very uplifting story that proves it's never too late! De Niro and Fonda are believable as the two co-workers who help each other and fall in love. This is a well acted well, written story...
An Important Subject with Two Stars Meandering Through a TV-Movie-Level Vehicle
As the last film directed by the redoubtable Martin Ritt, this 1990 drama is full of good intentions about adult illiteracy and has two proven star actors, Jane Fonda and Robert DeNiro, in the lead...
I was flipping through the channels at home and I came upon this movie. What interested me was that Robert DeNiro played a man that was unable to read and write. I am a special education teacher...
Sidney Lumet directed this film. I recalled it scaring me when I saw its theatrical release. As a director, Lumet received four Oscar nominations for directing "12 Angry Men" in 1957, "Dog Day...
Two Star's Removed for flippent stupid Racial Insensity to blacks, jews, italians you name it!
