As most probably expected, Finding Dory became the year’s biggest film this summer. Following one of Disney/Pixar’s most successful, beloved and heralded films of all time was sort of a no-brainer in the wondering of who’s going to go see it. This time they would focus on the fish with the short term memory loss, […]
This year marks the 30th anniversary of James Cameron’s Aliens, the action-heavy sequel to Ridley Scott’s classic sci-fi/horror feature Alien. Moving in its own direction, Aliens brought a new feel to the world, while still retaining a certain aesthetic that made this series unique. Once again featuring Sigourney Weaver as Ripley, this heavily acclaimed sequel […]

Heartbreakers, directed by David Mirkin (Romy and Michele’s High School Reunion) from a screenplay […]

Writer/director Neill Blomkamp’s latest big screen project is a film that tackles the ideas of artificial intelligence and the big questions that come from creating a machine that thinks. It is set in Johannesburg, a few years in the future, and finds the lead characters dealing with robots and their effectiveness in a world where […]
Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment tells the remarkable epic adventure of Moses in a spectacular display when ODUS: EXGODS AND KINGS hits Blu-ray 3D™, Blu-ray™ and DVD March 17. Critically acclaimed performances from a brilliant ensemble cast, including Christian Bale, Joel Edgerton, Sigourney Weaver, Aaron Paul and Ben Kingsley, have helped catapult the film to nearly a […]
Truth be told, I had never seen Working Girl before. However, one look at the Blu-ray’s cover is all it took for me to get that warm and fuzzy feeling that I was about to watch something special simply because of the very young now everyday household names on it. And after coming off an Alien binge […]
Exodus: Gods and Kings is an epic. There is no way around that. Regardless of my thoughts on the film as a whole, director Ridley Scott has made a film that is grand in scale, fully realized in its depiction of an ancient time, and littered with extras, sets, props, and obvious visual effects in […]
Two of Ridley Scott’s best films are coming to Blu-ray in all new collector’s editions. One is more obvious and that is Alien, Scott’s landmark sci-fi/horror feature, which is celebrating its 35th anniversary. The other is Kingdom of Heaven, celebrating its 10th anniversary as Scott’s most underrated feature (granted the Director’s cut version is where it’s at). […]
Come on, it was baffling that Ghostbusters II had yet to make it to Blu-ray. Its seems strange it took til now to get a set of 1 & 2 on Blu-ray. But, hit the 30 year anniversary of the original film and things like this can happen. You may remember when I did my […]
So this is pretty cool. I have been happy to attend the Hero Complex Film Festival for the past couple years and the lineup for 2014’s fest has just been announced. For Los Angeles residents and those willing to come out for a weekend, Hero Complex will be presenting a number of very cool screenings […]
Goody (Alicia Silverstone) and Stacy (Krysten Ritter) are addicted to the night life, clubbing, hooking up and always looking for the next thrill, all the while keeping a big a secret-they happen to be modern-day vampires. But even with lifetimes of dating experience behind them, the duo realizes they still have a lot to learn about […]
Avatar is finally available for all of those who wanted to purchase a 3D version of the film. James Cameron’s groundbreaking film has obviously had an effect on how people now view movies (for better or worse), given the onslaught of 3D releases, but now anyone with the proper capabilities will be able to experience […]

If you’re going to make a movie about cops, you’ve got a few templates to choose from: you can do the “Rookie Story”, where you follow an up-and-comer through the ranks as he achieves his goal of becoming a decorated police officer; you can go the “Grizzled Detective” route, and put an embittered, brilliant detective […]
I was happy to be able to revisit Cedar Rapids. I thought it was a very charming comedy that was unfortunately only able to be seen in limited release, during its theatrical run. Fortunately, the Blu-ray for this film is now available and many can now buy or rent this sweet-natured, raunchy comedy. It helps […]
