The latest entertainment news and reviews in 4K UHD, Blu-ray, movies and more…
Growing up, I had parents that were big fans of John Travolta. Pretty much, if he was in a movie playing in theaters, we were seeing it. If we missed it, we were renting it the week it came out on VHS. They were mostly addicted to the subpar outings of his. An unfortunate piece […]
The Haunting of Hill House was another one of those Netflix shows where I heard from word of mouth that you should be binging this. And binge that we did! However, unlike say a Stranger Things for example, The Haunting of Hill House is a slow burn. So instead of taking all the episodes in […]
For those looking for an abundance of Indie outings your movie ship has come in! This week sees a massive and groundbreaking eleven smaller flicks dissected below – and one studio movie just for fun – to keep fans up to date on smaller film fare. (Told you I was gonna make up for mere […]
Keeping the love of all things indie going, this week presents some interesting cinema in many different genres to keep the avid film fan busy. (Or at least provide a distraction to the weekend box office chewing Marvel movie machine!) Docs on the dark side of show business, controversial conservation and caustic comedians, stories about […]
With recent fests ending and tons of reviews needing to be wrapped up, I fell slightly behind on my regular week-to-week movie skinnies. So to get back up to speed here are some flicks that have come out and are coming out to help fill in the indie gaps for those who need to know. […]
Given the successful (non-superhero or animated) movies that have come out over the past few years, it would seem audiences have a thing for space-based adventures and romantic dramas. The Space Between Us combines these ideas into one film, which fits well for distributor STX Entertainment. This is the studio that has tried to match high concepts […]
This review is going to be a challenge for me. You see, I’m not the world’s biggest Watchmen fan by any means. The limited comic series of the same name bores me. I also know how devastating that must be to read in the third sentence of a review. However, let the record show, I’ve […]
It wouldn’t be another calendar year at the movies without the obligatory disaster film, would it? No way! This time out we have the heavyweight Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson leading the pack. And while the film’s initial trailers, with the exception of the slow, melodic take on “California Dreamin,” didn’t do much to whet my appetite […]
Where will you be, who will you be with and who will you save when San Andreas arrives onto Blu-ray 3D Combo Pack, Blu-ray Combo Pack, DVD and Digital HD? I know ! Hopefully you’ll be on your couch watching this! Right?! San Andreas follows a rescue helicopter pilot (Dwayne Johnson) and his estranged wife (Carla Gugino, Night […]
It’s almost summer 2015, but it wouldn’t be another year at the movies without the obligatory disaster film, would it? No way! This time out we have the heavyweight Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson leading the pack. And while the trailers, with the exception of the slow, melodic take on “California Dreamin,” didn’t do much to […]

It was executive produced by Charles Fries, with Ava Ostern Fries serving as producer. Director Jeff Kanew is most known for one of the 80s best comedies, Revenge Of The […]
Since the advent of television on DVD, one series has had a vocal push to get it out and available for purchase. The Wonder Years, the 1960s/early 70s coming of age television show was beloved and still cherished to this day. Many years went by and there were never any plans for it. Then it […]
I am a big fan of filmmaker Robert Rodriguez; however, I never quite made the plunge to go and see his “kids” films. While Rodriguez has made some pretty hard R-rated features in his time (Desperado, From Dusk til Dawn, Sin City), he has also let his wild imagination carve himself out a niche in […]

Since the film’s theatrical release, it has been very interesting to hear everyone’s thoughts on Zack Snyder’s Sucker Punch. I have people in my life that very much opposed the film, going as far to say its subject matter is an abomination of the screenplay format, and others like me who can’t wait to view […]
So if I’m such a big Robert Rodriguez fan, then why have I never seen any of these Spy Kids films? I’m not sure of the answer to that one, but that’s all about to change this summer when his high octane kid-friendly franchise makes its way to the Blu-ray format. Yep. That’s right ladies […]
