Sydney Sweeney and Glen Powell are two very visually attractive people in a current day and age where not every movie seems to follow the romantic comedy trend of two good looking people falling in love. So ANYONE BUT YOU feels like a bit of a throwback to the 80s and 90s comedies with a […]

TITANIC on 4k Blu Ray – A Visually Spectacular Disaster
It was the ship that many claimed could never sink. But it did. You all know the story. One of the most legendary stories in history happened in 1912 when a passenger ship sent out from England to New York City. 2200 people were on board and there were many aspects to the boat, from […]
STAR TREK: THE PICARD LEGACY – Now That’s A Gift!
As a life-long fan of STAR TREK, one of the many powerful aspects of the series is how it has grown and evolved over the years and remained such a solid form of entertainment dating all the way back to the 1960s with the Captain James T. Kirk (William Shatner) era and especially the movie […]
NOT LET (A)STRAY WITH THIS CANINE COMEDY ON HOME VIDEO
When Reggie (Will Ferrell) is led astray in the adult canine comedy STRAYS, I had to wonder when this Border Terrier will see the light? His master, Doug (Will Forte), is a ne’er-do-well, and he only adopted the dog because his girlfriend at the time adored him. But now that they split up, he should […]
TRANSFORMERS: RISE OF THE BEASTS on 4k Blu Ray Review – ‘Til All Are One
While I tire of a lot of the mass produced studio product this year, TRANSFORMERS: RISE OF THE BEASTS is a rare exception. A pure, fun summer popcorn movie that wears its heart on its sleeve, it was a fun action movie that did decently on its theatrical release but I really wish did better. […]
THE LAST VOYAGE OF THE DEMETER on Blu Ray – Aka Dracula On A Boat
THE LAST VOYAGE OF THE DEMETER is a bit of a surprise; just one section of Dracula’s “uprising” based off of a single chapter of the Bram Stoker classic. The very basic but effective premise has the crew of the Demeter ship dealing with Dracula as a stay. The movie has a solid cast but […]
NO HARD FEELINGS on Blu Ray – Stay For The J-Law
NO HARD FEELINGS feels somewhat rare in 2023; the romantic fish-out-of-water comedy that doesn’t have any visual effects or superheroes. It came and went quickly in cinemas and did pretty decent business, and when I saw it. Lawrence plays Maddie, a down on her luck, early 30s woman trying to make ends meet, and gets […]
M3GAN on Blu Ray – Hey, Where’s The 4k?
One of my favourite “scary” movies of 2023, M3GAN was released in the first week of January to critical acclaim and strong box office, developing quite a bit of a fanbase. Even just from a commentary on how AI and programming is starting to change the world, the makers of M3GAN have a lot of […]
LEONOR WILL NEVER DIE on Blu Ray – A Writer’s Dreamscape
The Filipino-based genre movie LEONOR WILL NEVER DIE has such an intimate and funny charm to it that I really hope it finds an audience on Blu Ray. One of the very best performances I saw at last fall’s Toronto International Film Festival was from lead Sheila Francisco as Leonor, who just has such a […]
STAR TREK: THE NEXT GENERATION on 4k Blu Ray – Beam It All Up
MORE Star Trek Cinema on 4k disc is happening! I have reviewed the STAR TREK original film series for the site on more than one occasion in the past, and while most of the series has their flaws, the overall theme of the future being a bright and prosperous one with future technologies benefitting all […]
THE FABLEMANS on 4k Blu Ray – Spielberg In All His Glory
One of the finest movies I saw in 2022, THE FABELMANS is pretty much the childhood upbringing of it’s director, Steven Spielberg. This premiered at last falls Toronto International Film Festival where it won the Audience Award and it was very much deserved. As a kid in New Jersey he saw THE GREATEST SHOW ON […]
PUSS IN BOOTS on 4k Blu Ray – Cats and Twisted Fairy Tales, Oh My!
Puss in Boots discovers that his passion for adventure has taken its toll when he learns that he has burnt through eight of his nine lives. Puss sets out on an epic journey to find the mythical Last Wish and restore his nine lives. A very fresh and unique spinoff of the SHREK series, PUSS […]
Mickey & Minnie 10 Classic Shorts – Volume 1 Review – Generations Later, Still Timeless
One aspect of animation that always seems to get overlooked is that it all started with the shorter-form shorts that played before features. The star of this overall presentation is the very first animated short with synched sound, STEAMBOAT WILLIE, which to this day is a legendary and iconic piece of filmmaking that has lasted […]
BLACK PANTHER: WAKANDA FOREVER on 4k Blu Ray – Lather, Rinse, Repeat
A sequel of sorts to the 2018 smash hit BLACK PANTHER featuring the now-late Chadwick Boseman, this sequel has a completely different tone and feeling, not much to its merit. This sequel mostly takes place in the fictional world of Wakanda as outside forces try to make their way in and it’s up to Every […]
SHE SAID on Blu Ray – Harvey, You’re Done.
The near documentary level drama SHE SAID is based on a true story. It opens on a powerful image set in Ireland in 1992 with a young girl running in tears down a town street after we see her working on a movie set. It’s an important image to open on as it then cuts […]
