Truth be told I wanted nothing to do with The Equalizer when it came out theatrically. I even went as far as to not make any plans to attend the press screening of it when it dropped in my area. What kind of reviewer does that? I can tell you. It’s a bad one. I guess […]
Here’s another title that slipped past me theatrically this year at the movies, but I have heard enough good word of mouth about The Equalizer, starring Academy Award Winner Denzel Washington, that I want to take the next step on the Blu-ray format and give it a chance. Looks like I’ll get my cake and eat it […]
I’ll be the first to admit, when Scream Factory announced they were doing Lake Placid, I was kinda like “Hmm”. For one, it was a newer film (weird to call a 15 year old film that), but as we’ve seen they are starting to explore late 90s and early 2000s films. I remember watching it […]
Scream Factory will be bringing the Betty White classic LAKE PLACID to Blu-ray on July 8th. Its going to feature a new making of featurette with plenty of returning cast and crew to look back at the film. Now, I admittedly wasn’t a big fan of this movie back in 1999. However, I’m more […]

It can be stated as an “art house romantic comedy,” but it is still a regular romantic comedy. Lola Versus may play out in its own sort of way, but it very much follows a lot of the same patterns that these types of films tend to have. That does not make it bad, as […]
Lola Versus is, by all means, a fairly standard “chick flick“ that is somewhat different due to the fact that it was made with the spirit of a quirky, indie comedy. It is about a woman who is dumped before her wedding and makes a lot of bad decisions on her way to restarting her […]

HBO Films critically acclaimed and Emmy nominated film Too Big To Fail presents a searing and explosive account of the events that led to the 2008 financial crisis and how the U.S. economy was brought back from the brink of collapse. Too Big To Fail is based on the bestselling book by Andrew Ross Sorkin and offers an […]
I love Star Wars and I love Mel Brooks. Spaceballs is not necessarily a favorite film of mine, but it is one that I can say I have easily watched more than most of the films I have owned over the years. Now everyone gets a chance to celebrate it yet again in this upcoming […]
There were two main reasons why I wanted to see, own and ultimately review The Killer Inside Me on Blu-ray. Anyone that knows me can probably guess the first reason with little to no effort on his or her part, Jessica Alba. Yep, that’s right ladies and gentlemen, the lovely Jessica Alba graces us with […]
Let me start off by saying that I am a huge Mel Brooks fan. I have been so for as long as I can remember, but it has been a long time, admittedly, since I have sat down and viewed one of his films. When recently given the opportunity to review The Mel Brooks Collection […]
