 Eddie and the Cruisers September 4, 2008
This was a great find. My husband and I have been trying to locate "Eddie and the Cruisers II" on Dvd, for the longest time. One day, I thought, "What about Amazon.com"...and guess what, Bingo!
eddie and the cruisers August 6, 2008
The movie that I ordered arrived on time and in good condition. I was very happy with Amazon and the service I received.
Eddie Lives! July 15, 2008
I remember watching Eddie & the Cruisers when I was a kid, I never knew they made a sequel. I watched both movies and enjoyed both very much. I actually thought the second one was as good as or better than the first, Eddie is still a "bad boy" so he does the character very well.
It would have been nice to have some extras on the dvd, like music video's of some of the songs, but the movies are great and you cant beat the price!
Fun flix but who? July 4, 2008
These are 2 of my fave movies. No masterpieces to be sure but, really enjoyable. I've always wondered which rocker 'Eddie' may have been based on. Brian Wilson/ Pet Sounds?
These movies have a cult following that has dissipated! July 4, 2008

Eddie and the Cruisers came out in 1983 and did not do well in the box office but once released into video, it became a lion! It was just a "cool" premise and people fell in love with the lost Eddie. The music on this is fantastic, at least to lots of us. Michael Pare` embodies the songs he sings. Even knowing that it was John Cafferty singing, the voice was strangely similar to Pare`s natural speaking voice. At any other time, Cafferty doesn't sound like this. So the movie was special in several ways and people loved it. Enough so that in 1989, Eddie and the Cruisers 2 was released with more of Cafferty's music. I feel this was even better than number one. You also see a lot more of Pare` who I think absolutely "made" the role. The movie has a lot of fire in it and great music along with subtle humor. They have been and always will be high on my list of favorite movies to re-watch. You do need, however, to believe in the old times and love rock and roll to enjoy them.
