5.0 out of 5 stars Feel-good movie, September 21, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Mr Destiny [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Would love to see this released again--including DVD. It is a movie you MUST have in your collection. Like "It's a Wonderful Life", it makes you realize what you have is maybe all you REALLY want.

5.0 out of 5 stars An unforgetable Movie, July 26, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Mr Destiny [VHS] (VHS Tape)

It's been 5 years since I last saw this movie, but it sticks in my head like yesterday. Jim Beulushi is awesome in Mr. Destiny, along with his co-stars, Linda Hamilton and Renee Russo. I have been looking everywhere for this video. I would love to see Amazon.com release this movie for viewers like myself. I'd be grateful.

This review is from: Mr Destiny [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Mr. Destiny is not only fun entertainment, it deals with the question every person asks at some time in their life: How would my life be different now if only I had....? James Belushi charmingly plays the man who lost his job, and finds himself wishing he could change his past and start over. He finds his chance to do just that after a little magical intervention by Mr. Destiny (Michael Caine). With just one change in his past...from losing the big baseball game, to winning it, Belushi's life takes a different path. Suddenly plopped into his new life, with a different wife and a different job, he encounters many troublesome adventures...humorous for the viewer, but disastrous for Belushi. Just at the point of hopelessness, Mr. Destiny intervenes again, but I won't give away anymore of the plot here. I loved Belushi's character... in spite of his troubles, he confronts all situations with grace and humor. The movie is sweet, funny, and even carries an encouraging message: Don't regret the past, but go forward and make the best of what you've got!
