Beverly Hills Cop III (4K UHD Blu-ray Review)

The Beverly Hills Cop series has always varied in quality.  The first film is an unquantifiable 80’s classic that was a huge hit in its era, making Eddie Murphy a superstar.

Beverly Hills Cop: 3-Movie Collection (Blu-ray Review)

Yes, I’m in the same boat as you. Why is this not a 4K Ultra-HD Blu-ray release, Paramount? Us collectors don’t care for your boasting of 4K Ultra-HD streams to “own”. At least the new transfers are being used for the Blu-rays on this new set that also includes some “new” extras for the taking […]

Gremlins (4K UHD Blu-Ray Review)
