Southpaw is defined in the sport of boxing as the stance where the boxer has his right hand and right foot forward, leading with right jabs, and following with a left cross right hook. Southpaw is the normal stance for a left-handed boxer. Fictional boxer Rocky Balboa, for example, was a southpaw. Therefore, I think you can pretty much conjure up that Jake Gyllenhaal’s character in Southpaw is a southpaw. You picking up what I’m dropping here because I’m pretty much lost on what point I want to make. So now that you know what a southpaw is I guess we can move on to talking about the 2015 sports drama film, Southpaw. Just out of curiosity how many times did I mention my keyword in this first paragraph? If you said seven times, have someone in the room where you’re at clap for you.

Any Day is an alright movie about faith and perseverance even when things seem at their darkest but it doesn’t beat the viewer over the head with a bible or religion. It’s slow moving but has a great cast. And BONUS…Sean Bean does NOT die in this one! Continue reading ‘Any Day (DVD Review)’

An incredible ensemble women’s cast with a very well written script makes this DVD a keeper! Dakota Fanning continues to provide the most powerful performances, every time she’s on the screen. She has always been a favorite of mine and still continues to amaze me. But in this film, the one to really watch is Australian born, Danielle Macdonald, who completely helms this strong women’s cast of great talents. So put on your thinking caps and get ready for a well told mystery that will have you guessing all the way to the end. Continue reading ‘Every Secret Thing (DVD Review)’

What We Do in the Shadows is a mockumentary film about a group of vampires living together as roommates. It has been made in the vain of something like Christopher Guest’s This Is Spinal Tap or Best in Show. The film was written and directed by New Zealanders Jermaine Clement (of Flight of the Conchords fame) and Taika Waititi, who also both star in the film. The film was partially made possible by crowdfunding and thankfully it scored well with all who saw it. Now you can check it out too, as it has a packed Blu-ray to check out.

`From The Vault` is a series of live concerts from The Rolling Stones archive which are getting their first official release. `Hyde Park 1969` is the latest addition to the series. It was one of the most highly anticipated gigs of 1969 and it delivered on all the promise and then some. On July 5, 1969, the Rolling Stones hosted their iconic free concert in London`s Hyde Park. Having taken two years off from the road, the show was conceived as the beginning of the band s big return to the live stage. It was also planned as an introduction of their hot new guitar player, Mick Taylor. The former disciple of British blues legend John Mayall had been inducted into the Stones just a month prior. Over 400,000 delirious fans of all ages gathered into the park for the concert. The Stones` concert in London’s Hyde Park would pay homage to the late Brian Jones and usher in the new and extraordinary era of Mick Taylor (1969-74). Bring The Concert Experience Home With Brilliant Picture and Superior Surround Sound Continue reading ‘The Rolling Stones: From the Vault – Hyde Park Live 1969 (Blu-ray Review)’

A western starring Michael Fassbender is good enough to get me excited. Slow West was in limited release this past spring. While it was not a huge hit, it did make a big splash with critics and served as something of a nice distraction in between the bigger budgeted westerns that arrive in theaters every so often. Add the presence of Fassbender and some other strong talent and you have an alternative western with plenty of style to make for an engaging experience fit to be added to the genre. Now the film is on Blu-ray and it looks great.

There’s something about A24’s Ex Machina that brings warm thoughts to my human mind. Maybe it’s because of their sleeper hit last year, Under the Skin, which I could not get enough of or maybe it’s because this one seeds psychosis within your head, in the way that only a great artificial intelligence film can. Yes, it’s true ladies and gentlemen, the psychological yet stylish thriller Ex Machina will leave you visually, sonically and emotionally enthralled when you give it a spin in your Blu-ray player of choice. It blew everyone away at SXSW this year and now it’s time to be mind blown within the privacy of your own home. I can personally guarantee these claims too. This is my second go around with the flick, and while it’s not action packed like the theatrical trailer may have suggested, the film truly delivers by sucking you into one of the greatest human stories of artificial intelligence in our time, albeit in a slow burning fashion. Ava, the robot in question here, will make you believe and heck, might even make you fall for her. It’s actually hard to decipher what’s the more raw experience here, the interaction between the humans or that with the A.I. Read on you shall! Continue reading ‘Ex Machina (Blu-ray Review)’
