Just recently nominated for eight Oscars, Kenneth Branagh’s coming-of-age tale BELFAST arrives on Blu Ray today.

GHOSTBUSTERS AFTERLIFE 4k Blu Ray Review – We’re Ready To Believe You
In an era where there are so many unoriginal ideas being embraced by major audiences, it’s refreshing to see something like GHOSTBUSTERS: AFTERLIFE that takes a chance on a film series with a somewhat questionable sequel (in 1989) and an even more baffling remake-of-sorts (in 2016) and creates almost a direct sequel to the very […]
