Waking Ned Devine is acquitted on all counts. Fox is convicted in yet another case of studios assuming a comedy does not warrant any supplementary materials....read the complete Waking Ned (1998) review at DVD Verdict (Sean McGinnis)

small town comes to terms with their good ...

Keeping this short, WND is one of the funniest, most charming and clever movies I have ever seen. You can watch this 5xs and still laugh just as hard as first time. Perfect family movie. If you haven't seen this, you've missed out. This movie ...
