Footloose is 40 years old?! How has time flown by so fast? I remember being a little kid dancing my head off to the title track and other soundtrack selections.  I was a bit older catching the film for the first time on TBS or TNT with my mother, a huge fan of movies involving […]

Shrek: 20th Anniversary Edition (4K Blu-ray Review)

It’s sort of mind mind-boggling to think that Shrek was released 20 years ago.  I remember it’s DVD release, picking it up at Costco, and loving how much they included in special features, and giving folks without HDTVs the option for a Pan and Scan version too.  The thoughtfulness of that package was why I […]

Bombshell (Blu-ray Review)

Bombshell is a film where I initially only showed up for because of the 3 leading women, most notably Harley Quinn…err I mean Margot Robbie.  I pretty much will see anything with her nowadays, but I digress.  Other than that I had originally thought there was really no reason for me to watch Bombshell.  I […]

‘Bombshell’ Has Plenty To Offer Under The Surface (Movie Review)

Bombshell is a film I’m only here for because of the 3 leading women, most notably Harley Quinn…err I mean Margot Robbie.  I pretty much will see anything with her nowadays, but I digress.  Other than that I had originally thought there was really no reason for me to be here.  While I am totally […]

Pet Sematary – 2019 (4K UHD Blu-ray Review)

Pet Sematary kind of freaked me out as a kid, but truth be told I never read the 1983 novel of the same name by Stephen King.  Revisiting the film nowadays feels a bit silly thanks to the shoddy special effects and all back then, but the core of the terror is still there.  It’s […]

Pitch Perfect 3 (4K UHD Blu-ray Review)

Every popular film must find itself a way to being a trilogy, right? Well, that’s the case now with the Pitch Perfect franchise. Personally, I found the first film to be charming enough and it was quite popular enough to warrant an encore performance or a victory lap of sorts.  That victory lap turned into […]

Daddy’s Home 2 (4K UHD Blu-ray Review)

Daddy’s Home 2 huh?  I’m a bit lukewarm when it comes to the first Daddy’s Home in 2015.  It was mildly funny and heartwarming, but I dunno.  I just haven’t always been the biggest fan of every Will Ferrell movie, but really for no reason in particular.  There’s also no denying his wealth of catalog […]
