Contagion (4K UHD Blu-ray Review)

I don’t think anyone could have imagined how cathartic a movie like Contagion could be before Covid.  The film is a creepy reminder of 2020 now, and even if our pandemic ended up being nothing like the one in the film, to a point anyway, it’s a look into what might have been. Take an […]

John and the Hole (Blu-ray Review)

While odd and feeling like one of a kind in terms of what takes place, John and the Hole is a familiar kind of indie film. It toured film festivals, received mixed reactions based on its ambiguous qualities, and found its way to theaters to little fanfare. While not groundbreaking, it’s the sort of film […]

Fifty Shades of Grey (Blu-ray Review)

Okay.  I am sure that I will probably never hear the end about this, but I really, really enjoyed Fifty Shades of Grey.  Now don’t get me wrong – I’m smart enough to say it’s not great, but it’s not terrible either.  To be completely honest, this is exactly what I expected from the film. […]

Fifty Shades of Grey Steams It Up on Blu-ray

I think I’m actually one of the very few critics out there who didn’t hate Fifty Shades of Grey.  Sure I’m not a big fan of the novel of the same name, but the film adaptation doesn’t stray much at all so what you see on the pages is literally what you see on the […]

Does ‘Grey’ Matter (Movie Review)

Fifty Shades of Grey is one of those movies that will end up being credited more for the hype around it than what is actually seen in the film.  This is a film based on the first book in a trilogy of bestselling erotic romance novels that seemingly aspires to be placed in the same […]

One of last year’s biggest new dramas for network television and sort of a show to help NBC in attempting to make a big comeback, was The Blacklist.  Its big selling point was that of actor James Spader, who has managed to turn himself into a television superstar in the last decade plus.  Not only […]

‘Zero Dark Thirty’ Is A Thrilling Work Of Journalism Come To Life (Movie Review)

Sorry to reiterate the title, but Zero Dark Thirty is in fact a thrilling work of journalism come to life.  This is not a film that relies on sensational action sequences to depict the hunt for Osama bin Laden, nor is it a film that eventually finds the wonderful Jessica Chastain eventually strapping on night […]

‘Contagion’ Spreads Procedural-Style Chills

With Contagion, acclaimed director Steven Soderbergh moves away from his more obscure arthouse fair and back into more mainstream film territory.  The result is a procedural-style thriller geared towards adults and it is plenty effective in having the surrounding audience be weary of anyone who coughs near them after having seen the film.  Using a […]
