From the director of the Oscar-winning SPOTLIGHT, STILLWATER is a surprisingly effective drama featuring an unusual Matt Damon performance and a story on differences in several cultures in the United States and France. The movie opens almost immediately on this cultural difference, as Bill Butler (Damon) is seen hard at work to earn money to […]

Crocodile Dundee on Blu Ray – You Call That a Knife?
Crikey! Getting this review copy in the mail made me feel old. Imagine a fish-out-of-water story where a reporter (Linda Kowlowski) discovers a true Australian legend Mick Dundee (Paul Hogan) and brings him to New York City for the first time ever, and wackiness ensues. With a simple but effective premise here, CROCODILE DUNDEE was […]

The 48 HRS Universe On Blu Ray – Reggie Hamond Never Looked Better
Walter Hill has always been one of my very favourite filmmakers. There is just something about his style, where he pushes Western movie philosophies into all of his work and the way he writes his male characters that is a perfect example of my love for action movies of the era. In 48 HRS, his […]

CHLOE ZHAO’S ETERNALS Review – How Did We Get Here & Where Do We Go?
It seems that every couple of months a new Marvel Cinematic Universe movie comes out and more and more I feel like we really don’t need any of these movies anymore. Yes, I know, money needs to be made, now more than ever. And CHLOE ZHAO’S ETERNALS proves that the windows are getting shorter and […]

THE SHAWSHANK REDEMPTION 4k Blu Ray Review – Get Busy Livin’
I have not seen THE SHAWSHANK REDEMPTION in many, many years. Regarded as one of the finest contemporary movies ever made by critics and audiences (going so far as to infamously being regarded as the highest rated movie on the Internet Movie Database), some may not know that this did NOT do very well on […]

LAST NIGHT IN SOHO Review – A Take From Two Sides
It’s incredibly rare to get TWO Edgar Wright movies in a year. I raved earlier this year about his wonderful documentary THE SPARKS BROTHERS, which was a complete summary of many decades. Wright is a stickler for detail and using imagery and particular music beats to. I saw LAST NIGHT IN SOHO at the recent […]

A Clockwork Orange in 4k – Ultra High Def is Viddy Well
Stanley Kubrick’s 1971 follow-up to his legendary space picture 2001: A SPACE ODYSSEY has always been a curiosity to me, in that the master auteur goes from the most influential sci-fi movie ever made to a much smaller picture that rests in the small but powerful catalogue of Kubrick’s work. It’s one that I feel like […]
