| Synopsis:
Set in 1977, back when sex was safe, pleasure was a business and business was booming, idealistic porn producer Jack Horner aspires to elevate his craft to an art form. Horner discovers Eddie Adams, a hot young talent working as a busboy in a nightclub, and welcomes him into the extended family of movie-makers, misfits and hangers-on that are always around. Adams' rise from nobody to a celebrity adult entertainer is meteoric, and soon the whole world seems to know his porn alter ego, "Dirk Diggler." Now, when disco and drugs are in vogue, fashion is in flux and the party never seems to stop, Adams' dreams of turning sex into stardom are about to collide with cold, hard reality. Featuring an amazing, award-winning cast, including Mark Wahlberg ("The Departed," "We Own the Night"), Burt Reynolds ("Deliverance"), John C. Reilly ("Magnolia"), Julianne Moore ("Children of Men"), Philip Seymour Hoffman ("State & Main"), Don Cheadle ("Talk to Me"), William H. Macy ("Bobby"), and many more. |

| Customer Reviews: Greatest Film Ever Made! August 5, 2010 Aw Hamlyn (Brisbane, Australia) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I am a firm believer that Boogie Nights is in fact the greatest film ever made. Every performance is superb; the direction is outstanding; the styling is flawless.
But what really makes this odd film work so seamlessly is in the way it portrays community so wholly and so beautifully. For all intents and purposes you shouldn't like these people, but you can't help but love them.
The ensemble cast is amazing, the standout being Julieanne Moore, heartbreakingly good as the troubled porn star den-mother, Amber Waves.
This Blu-Ray is a must for any fan of the film. The vision and sound quality is fantastic, and the extras are fascinating, particularly the John C Reilly 'behind the scenes' stuff.
Get it - get it now!

Some great actors, but the movie is completely sophomoric. I thought it would be a spoof, but it's really not funny.

boogie nights July 13, 2010 Stephanie (Marysville, WA) 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
Still the great movie I remember however nothing said this was the cut version of the movie. I wanted the original. I wouldn't have bought it if I had known.
Totally weird, and entertaining at the same time! June 8, 2010 H. Pursley 0 out of 2 found this review helpful
Mark Wahlberg as Dirk Diggler the '70's porn star. Starts out as a kid from the Valley with a "talent" and gets discovered by the super creepy Burt Reynolds. Shows Dirk's rise to fame and his coke habit, and then theres the infamous "money shot" at the end. A bit odd but completely engrossing and entertaining.
