Ben Affleck’s directorial catalog has been nothing short of a perfect batting average. Despite your thoughts on his films, none of them are terrible and at worst you can’t say any of them aren’t pretty damn entertaining. There were no clumsy steps or learning curves, he started right out with some prestige. His second film […]

All the Way exists in a strange space for films where it is packed on with talent and amazing performances, but was made for HBO to be shown on the premium channel instead of in theaters, where its message, cast, writing, and brilliance would have a greater chance to be celebrated by a larger audience. […]

There’s an interesting mix of indie fare this week that has everything from theme park furries to wild west gun-toting baddies. (And that’s just an average day in the work of diverse actor Bryan Cranston!) We’re filling the Encapsulated Movie Reviews today with a trio that includes the comedy CHARACTERz, the drama The Infiltrator and […]

There’s something to be said for how compelling post-Breaking Bad Bryan Cranston is. At 60-years old, the actor is about 20 years too old to be playing U.S. Customs agent Robert Mazur, the man who went undercover to infiltrate the money-laundering organization of drug lord Pablo Escobar. Still, his rugged face is one full of […]

After a fairly lengthy wait, especially considering today’s handling of sequel schedules, Po and the Furious Five are back for more Kung Fu Panda fun. This third entry in DreamWorks Animation’s solid martial arts action-comedy franchise does not quite reach the great heights of the prior two installments, but that doesn’t mean this film is […]

It is great to see a movie like this treated with a level of respect. While Godzilla can be boiled down to a giant monster causing a rampage in a city, the fact that the film (as well as its marketing) had a level of restraint in how to actually depict the sort of chaos […]

Godzilla was one of my most anticipated summer blockbusters of 2014 and I was really glad that it delivered (Review HERE). We now have word today that Godzilla will be making its way onto Blu-ray on September 16th. The Blu-ray appears to be packed with extras, as well as some bonus packaging goodies described in this […]

If you were asked where would Hollywood be without another reboot of the famous Japanese film monster, Godzilla, how would you answer? I guess if someone asked me that, my initial response would be probably making another attempt at Freddy Krueger. But since things didn’t fair all too well for the slasher’s last go around, […]

Saturday was the big day at WonderCon, as far as the big studio films were concerned, as the Anaheim Convention Center’s Arena had a back-to-back-to-back-to-etc. lineup of movie studios showing off some of their upcoming big action/sci-fi movies. The morning kicked off with Warner Brothers, who were proud to show off new footage from Edge […]

The who knocks returns. One of my favorite television series of all time is coming home to Blu-ray in full this June. This may sound confusing to those who are already aware of the elaborate box set placed inside a container shaped like one of the barrels seen so often throughout Breaking Bad, but if […]

Cold Comes the Night is a fairly straightforward thriller that is basically a showcase for Bryan Cranston’s Russian criminal character. The film may lack much to really set it apart, but for what it is, the film is fine with moving at a quick pace to tell a fairly pulpy crime story, which happens to […]

Godzilla just looks great. I do not know how else to say it. We now have a second trailer for the newest take on the legendary creature (which is being produced by Legendary) and it continues to look like a stunning achievement. The cast is solid, the effects will obviously be amazing, and I am […]

They are calling this one of Bryan Cranston’s most disturbing performances. Hmm. That’s hard to top Mr. White in Breaking Bad, isn’t it? But wait! It’s not all about Bryan Cranston in this one, is it? It also contains the beautiful Alice Eve from the latest Star Trek flick. You remember that necessary scene she […]

The Hobbit: Desolation of Smaug is a big release for this time of year, with a likely gross ending up north of a billion dollars worldwide. Given the nature of this release, it only makes sense for Warner Brothers to debut trailers for a few of their potential blockbusters for next year around the same […]

To coincide with one of the greatest dramas in recent TV history going off air in the next three weeks, Sony Pictures Home Entertainment has one hell of an announcement cooking they want us to share with everyone out there in Blu-ray land. The are bring the ULTIMATE Breaking Bad experience to Blu-ray on November 26th […]

Y’all (my Texas accent is starting to protrude) start right here if you’re ever going to figure out where Batman got his mad detective skills from. That’s right y’all. Look no further than Argo, a cute little movie that won a few awards. And best of all, Warner Bros. has your best interest at heart […]

I have to admit, I never heard much about this show other than my reviewer Aaron Neuwirth mentioning it over the past 4 years. Best Buy had a sale this past winter on the Blu-ray sets. I said what the heck and bought seasons one and two. I was hooked. And then much to my […]
