To boldly go. I have always had a soft spot in my heart for the TREK feature movies. I grew up watching the original series along with THE NEXT GENERATION, and it was a great childhood memory to sit with the family and watch all of the widescreen laserdiscs. At the time that I was […]

In The Heights 4k Review – Just Listen To The Block
I raved about IN THE HEIGHTS back in June, right around the time when theatres reopened. I was lucky to catch a theatrical screening in a REALLY good theatre and the entire experience of a group of well-intentioned characters trying to make it in the New York suburb of Washington Heights a part musical, part […]
THE CONJURING 3: THE DEVIL MADE ME DO IT on 4k – Boo, Made You Look!
Even in a sea of horror franchises, there’s something that really stands out about THE CONJURING and its offshoot, the ANNABELLE series. Like with many features this year, THE CONJURING has been delayed for quite a while and finally enjoyed a successful theatrical release. The Warrens (the always terrific Patrick Wilson and Vera Farminga) return […]
A QUIET PLACE PART II on 4k – Ultra High Def Spooks
One of the many examples of a studio picture that waited it out through the pandemic, A QUIET PLACE PART II has been awaited by many film fans ever since its initial delay right at the beginning of the world change in March, 2020. In fact, I even had tickets booked for a special double […]
Almost Famous 4k Review – The Golden God of Ultra High Def
On the road with Stillwater. What a glorious time. For William Miller (Patrick Fugit), a teenage kid who fell in love with music and could also write about it, got the chance to go on the road with the up and coming band and get to see the first-hand experiences of an up-and-coming band in […]
TOMB RAIDER 2-Movie Collection on 4k – Angelina in Ultra High-Def!
It was a pivotal summer in the year of 2001 and a pivotal mass-budget epic was about to be released onto unsuspecting eyeballs. Its viewers would forever be changed as a timeless blockbuster took over the world…. …okay, maybe LARA CROFT TOMB RAIDER was not THAT important. It was already a busy summer at the […]
THE TEN COMMANDMENTS 4k HDR Disc Review – Holy Moses This Looks Amazing!
Oh Moses, Moses! Oh, movies from a different era! Produced in the grand epic time of the 1950s, THE TEN COMMANDMENTS, the biblical epic starring the legendary Charlton Heston as our hero Moses and the telling of the Holy Scriptures from his uprising, his biblical learning all the way to parting the red sea to […]
WONDER WOMAN 1984 4k Review – So Much 80’s Fun in Ultra-High-Definition!
Almost entirely bypassing a theatrical release due to the nature of our planet and in the exhibition, almost everyone saw WONDER WOMAN 1984 in some digital form or another. While I did quickly review the movie back in its Virtual Theatrical release (and on HBO Max for a few weeks in the US) as all […]
THE CROODS A NEW AGE on 4k Ultra HD – Wowsers.
It has been many years since the first CROODS movie came out, 2013 in fact, and while I remember liking the movie when I saw it in the theatre, I pretty much moved on and forgot about it ever since. When a sequel was announced I was a bit surprised. Didn’t we say all we […]
TENET 4k HDR Disc Review – Home Video to The Next Level
There is a LOT many people have said about Christopher Nolan’s time-bending action adventure TENET which, like seemingly every movie right now in online discourse, has come with much derision over its reaction. Which is getting so common now that I pretty much just tell anyone to see every movie you want to see and […]
Train To Busan Presents Peninsula – 4k Blu Ray Review
Any fans of the original TRAIN TO BUSAN, which is currently streaming on Amazon Prime if you haven’t seen it yet, will immediately be sold on the sequel PENINSULA (also including a TRAIN TO BUSAN PRESENTS title beforehand), which is in the world of the same zombie apocalypse taking place as the first movie but […]
4k Blu Ray Review – THE INVISIBLE MAN
THE INVISIBLE MAN is one of the best recent examples of horror/thriller cinema. More in the vein of Hitchcock, this is a remake produced by Jason Blum’s production company, Blumhouse Pictures, which I take as a sign of quality with a slight nod to Roger Corman. Most of their titles are low budget with an […]
