An all-star cast led by Oscar nominee Gary Oldman and Oscar winner Colin Firth captivates in the brilliant espionage thriller Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy on Blu-ray this March. The film is nominated for three Academy Awards: Best Actor, Best Adapted Screenplay and Best Original Score. The Blu-ray Combo Pack is available to own on March […]
Along with having one of my favorite titles to say out loud of the year (the other being Martha Marcy May Marlene), Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy also boasts one of the best ensemble casts of the year. It is very delightful to report that the cast is certainly not wasted either, as everyone in this […]
Based on the peppy title I have given to this review, audiences should know they should be bracing themselves for doom; although I could be misleading you, were you not to look further. Earlier in 2011, Terrence Malick arose from the depths of wherever he goes in the many years in between his films to […]
The beauty of director Tarsem Singh’s Greek Myth 3D action film, Immortals, is definitely the most interesting thing about it.

Hidden by darkness. Guarded by witches. Discovered by a boy. Stolen by a King. Whoever owns it controls the world. Or destroys it… That was the original tag line to Disney’s 25th animated release of one of my all-time favorite Disney movies. This was such a different kind of Disney film that a lot of […]
It seems as time goes on, there are more and more entertaining films that find their way to Blu-ray, but never made it to the cinema. In the case of Outlander, it found zero success at the movie theater and was released this past May on Blu-ray. The film, while not a blockbuster of mammoth […]
