A Very High Quality Time Travel Movie,
By
This review is from: The Two Worlds of Jennie Logan [VHS] (VHS Tape)
This is a very underrated movie. As one who does a bit of re-enacting, the idea of time-traveling is an exciting thought. Of course, we all know that travel through time is impossible, at least in the way that the movies portray it. But re-enacting does give one the opportunity to experience the closest thing we have to time-traveling, and yet remain in the modern world as well. That's kind of like The Two Worlds of Jennie Logan. She can come and go through time as she pleases, and once she figures this out, she uses this ability to find the kind of life she's been longing for, including true love. (Many of the other reviews here have already given the synopsis of the story). A chick flick? Yeah...it is. But, it seems most guy flicks do not deal with this subject with the reverence that the chick flicks do, although there are excellent examples of what can be done to please both sexes when they put their mind to it, such as The Final Countdown (guy orientd, but my wife and my mother both love this movie), Frequency (not really time travel, per se, but still in that catagory), and Kate & Leopold (a movie for everyone!). The Two Worlds of Jennie Logan is closer to Somewhere In Time and The Love Letter when it comes to time-travel movies. There's a realistic quality to Jennie's reaction when she finds herself, at first unknowingly, transported to the past. We all feel her confusion and fright at her experience. But then, once she has realized what was happening and what she was able to do, she takes baby steps in her exploration of her portal to another time, pandora's box now opened. The movie plays out with a realistic tone, and the ending leaves the viewer without a sense of loss. Actually, the ending to this movie is perfect. Now, like the other reviewers, I'd like to know where the DVD of this movie is. With all the crap out there on the shelves, why must we have to wait for the quality releases?

Great movie - time travel love story,
By Carol A. Dawson "EEO GUIDANCE" (Jeffersonville, IN United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Two Worlds of Jennie Logan [VHS] (VHS Tape)
I have not seen this movie in years...probably since it was first released in 1978 (made for television move, I believe). I have often talked about it to people, but couldn't recall the title. Nobody else seemed to recall seeing it...until tonight - while talking with a neighbor, she and I began talking about movies we like and she mentioned her enjoyment of time travel stories (love stories, in particular)...she began describing a movie she liked, starring "the Bionic Woman"...between the two of us, we got close enough to the title to find it here. I thought the movie was a beautiful story of love so strong that it crossed all boundaries of time. It was an emotional story of love, loss, and promises. I highly recommend it. Lindsay Wagner is a fine actress, and is wonderfully convincing in this part.

Good Movie, but beware amature DVD copies,
By
This review is from: The Two Worlds of Jennie Logan [VHS] (VHS Tape)
I have loved this movie since I first saw it on TV. I'm also a big fan of Lindsay Wagner. For years I have been looking for a VHS tape of this title. So you can imagine my amazement when I found it at a zshop as a DVD. I know that many DVD titles are produced overseas and not released here. So I thought I had struck gold. $39.99 was expensive but some of the VHS's advertized are nearly that much. I was quite disappointed upon receiving it to see that it was obviously a amature DVD copy of a VHS tape. No menu or chapters just the movie. Hey I'm happy to have the copy. It's as good as a tape, but just a word of warning, if you can get it cheaper as a tape buy it that way.
