Blink Twice (Blu-ray Review)

I was immediately intrigued about the premise of Blink Twice when the publicity for the film began.  The movie offered a psychological thriller, something that has been missing from cinemas a lot of the time recently.  Zoë Kravitz in her first film as director took an ambitious story and ran with it.  Read more about […]

First Cow (Blu-ray Review)

After an initial release and a re-release on VOD to contend with Covid-19, A24’s cows have come home on Blu-ray. First Cow has a moment about a third of the way into the film where the cow finally arrives, and I felt like it was time for an applause break. It’s not quite Omar Sharif […]

Arrested Development: Season 4 (DVD Review)

Arrested Development is one of my all-time favorite television series.  Mitch Hurwitz created the kind of sitcom that was hilarious, witty, well-acted, one-of-a-kind, and ahead of its time.  All of that means it was very well-regarded by critics, won numerous awards, and pockets of audiences knew the amazing show they were getting, only see it […]

Get On That ‘To Do List’ (Movie Review)

I should start by saying I liked this movie.  The To Do List is a fun summer comedy that mixes absurd raunchiness and some sincere qualities in terms of what the journey means to the lead character, when all is said and done.  It also happens to be another coming-of-age film, which will be in […]
