The late fees are ridiculous. It's sad to me that a company survives by means of parasitic fees; Either be straight and charge more for your product, or you won't get my business. Decent selection,...

Ho-Ex, I heart you. And I hope you manage to stand proud and tall in this era of Netflix, because, let's face it, sometimes it is nice to walk down to the local video store and rent a DVD. (The...

Dear Ho Express*,I am so very sorry that I returned that Pretty Woman DVD late. I know, I know. I live up the block and I even have to pass you to get to and from work every day, it would have been...

While their selection is outstanding, I can go through Netflix and avoid the glares of the snobs behind the counter. I'm not sure how they train people here, but there's an air of superiority that...

Before I went the way of leaving Central/getting Netflix, I'd get my movies at Hollywood Express. For such a small store, they've got a great selection of many different genres. Whether you're...

I find it kind of interesting how half of the reviews mention Netflix. I mean, it's a video store. You go here if you would like to rent videos that don't come in an envelope in the mail. I...

Dear HollyWood Express, You may well be my last video store, so I thank you for the two-fers on Tues and Weds. I thank you for your chipper mood at 1040 Pm. I know you are a late fee Nazi, but that's...

Yeah, it's not Netflix, but if you're looking for a specific movie and you want it right now, they're great -- if they have it at any of their stores, they'll send it over to the store closet to you....

So I can't really give a good up to date review on this place, but I did work there from 1999-2004. Imagine a job where you were paid good money to watch movies all day and just talk shit about pop...

Best video rental store in Cambridge/Somerville. Good selection of TV shows, independents, cult movies. No games. I only hope they beat the mass-market competition.

If you are looking for a hard-to-find video, this is the place to check first. You can get a rental deal for 2-for-1 like the previous reviewer mentioned, which is a great offer! They might not have a...

This video store is a welcome alternative to the chain video stores. This store is especially strong in foreign and indie movie selection. They have specials during the week and are within easy walk...

Though slightly less "underground" as far as selection goes than it used to be, this place is still great. You can find a lot of hard to find titles from every genre. And as mentioned below-- an...

This is a great alternative to the chains such as blockbuster. They have a great collection of indie movies and have a two movies for the price of one special on Tuesdays. The best deal is to buy a bo...

This used to be my favorite video store on earth. Then they kept changing and becoming less alternative and more mainstream. I always used to get a kick out of the weird porno library that they have...

Hollywood Express is a pretentious video store. They sort movies by director, for instance. Now, this can be a great thing when you're only looking for movies by David Lynch, but if you're just looking for a...

YES! They put the criterion collection in a section on it's own in the front of the store! And they have almost all of the criterion collection! Also renting a "children's" dvd only costs $1.99!

The staff is a lot more pleasant at Hollywood Express than at Blockbuster, however the selection of movies is much larger at Blockbuster. To get a rental card you only have to fill out a simple form and have...

Hollywood has THE best video selection in the city, particularly if you are after hard-to-find independent and foreign movies. They also have a great new release/mainstream movie selection as well.
