The latest entertainment news and reviews in 4K UHD, Blu-ray, movies and more…
I have recently had discussions about comedy sequels with some friends. They are not easy to pull off, which is obvious just due to the fact that it is hard to name more than a couple comedy sequels offhand that really match up to the original film. For all the fun I had and continue […]
Denzel Washington (Safe House, Flight) and Mark Wahlberg (Contraband, Ted) star in 2 Guns, an adrenaline-fueled picture that tracks two operatives from competing bureaus who must team up for their mutual benefit and survival. 2 Guns will be available on Digital HD starting November 5, 2013, two weeks before it’s available on store shelves. Fans can own the […]
The Butler is the kind of movie I would normally dread watching, were I be one to base everything I see off of movie trailers or just be a very cynical person in general. Fortunately, I am not very cynical and am happy to give almost anything a chance. Despite knowing that this would be […]
2 Guns is a lot of things, but calling it ‘good’ is something I am having trouble trying to do. Given that the film is based on a comic series, which I assume is very pulpy and full of dark humor, I could give it the benefit of the doubt that it is supposed to […]
Sometimes it all just boils down to something as simple as a man and his robot. Robot & Frank is a very low key story that takes a simple sci-fi premise and manages to pull off something pretty affecting. It features a wonderful lead performance from Frank Langella, who is tasked with playing an elderly […]
The Easter Bunny’s heir apparent leaves his ancestral home on Easter Island to pursue pop superstardom in the animated comedy Hop, which arrived on Blu-ray and DVD on March 23, 2012, from Universal Studios Home Entertainment. Blending state-of-the-art CGI animation with live action, Hop is a non-stop, rockin’ adventure packed with humor and hi-jinks! E.B. was […]
Are you ready for “Edge of your seat, gut wrenching suspense!” and “An intense…heart-pounding thriller!”??? So am I! Unfortunately, I missed this one in the theater, but hopefully with the magic of Blu-ray and my favorite Sony PR person, I can experience Straw Dogs very soon and write all about it here. Sounds like a plan to […]
I do not always have a chance to do this, but I have to sort of defend a movie that I am not all that partial to. The original 1971 Straw Dogs, from director Sam Peckinpah, was a film that came out during a transitional time in Hollywood, the New Hollywood period. It was controversial […]
No, this is NOT an April Fool’s joke. Warner Bros. has released this PR release for the world to see. Superman: Motion Picture Anthology will be hitting stores on Blu-ray June 7th, 2011! This anthology set will consist of EIGHT discs with all four movies and hours upon hours of special features! One of […]
I went into Wednesday night’s screening of Death at a Funeral with a bad attitude. My day was lackluster. It was one of those days you just simply eek through life and would rather forget. So long story short, I went into the preview screening already expecting to hate it. That’s always a bad thing […]
It seems like only yesterday I was sitting there watching Cameron Diaz and James Marsden talk about their newest upcoming sci-fi thriller The Box. You can read all about it here if you choose and you can definitely mark February 23rd on your calendar as the official Blu-ray release date from Warner Home Video. Warner […]
