If you don’t come out of your John Wick viewing pumped up, then there’s something wrong with you medically speaking. The film has it all: money, cars (oh the American muscles cars), gangs, guns, girls, violence, puppies, loud rock music and some good old-fashioned hardcore action, something sorely missing from most flicks nowadays because of that watered […]
This is just great. In a time where we get a lot of action movies designed to build into some sort of franchise, here comes John Wick, a film most likely designed to be a one-off attempt at showing an older Keanu Reeves kick ass in some very brutal ways. The film is bound to […]
I normally don’t do this, nor have I ever done this before, but I can’t help it. I need to start this John Wick movie review off by quickly discussing the plot of the film from a very high level because it’s actually the very reason why I wanted to see this film. Keanu Reeves […]
Hey, you’ve seen Brandon Peters’ review for the Spike Lee Joint Collection, Volume 1. Now it’s time for Volume 2, are you ready? Do you want to see it? Well good, because apparently Disney felt the need to put together a number of Spike Lee’s Touchstone produced films into random Blu-ray packages for people to […]
It does not take a whole lot for a film to win me over if it has a lot of charm. Get the right cast and allow them to have fun that is evident in the film and I will be happy to sit back and enjoy what has been put in front of me. […]
Walking With Dinosaurs was a pretty big disappointment for Fox this past winter. The $80 million budgeted film only took back $36 million in the United States. When added, the overseas totals take it to $125.5 million overall. But, Fox claims that the intake globally is still very lackluster. The film featured computer generated dinosaurs […]
This doesn’t make up for Oldboy, but alas someone is finally digging into Spike Lee’s back catalog of films. And, funny enough, I now need to write a new piece for next week’s ‘Wishlist’ article as it was going to be for The 25th Hour which now sees a release date of June 10! It also […]
Walking With Dinosaurs was a release this Christmas that failed to catch on with audiences in the US. Some might not have even heard of it. This was a big project that opened with a whimper a midst all the Oscar buzzed film and popcorn flicks. It did manage to recoup the budget overseas without […]
There is not much work to be done when reviewing a film like Ride Along. It is a comedy, so I cannot exactly say whether someone will laugh or not, as it is all subjective. The film is a buddy cop movie, which follows a long list of mismatched pairings designed to work, based on […]
The day is finally upon us. A day that feels like it took forever to come. Honestly, I was unsure if this day would ever happen, but the sequel to 2010’s Kick-Ass is finally here!!! And it’s aptly named…Kick-Ass 2. Well, let’s be honest. They could have been a little more creative with that title, […]
Maybe one of the more unlikely comic properties to get a sequel, Kick-Ass was produced almost completely as an independent film, only to have its distribution rights bought and successfully turned into a big screen event. Unfortunately, while the Comic Con and geek crowd showed up for Kick-Ass, the film did not turn into the […]
The arrival of a new Ice Age film is not something that initially thrilled me. I enjoyed the first film in the series, but was let down by the sequel, which led to me not even bothering with the third entry in the franchise. Still, given the opportunity to see this latest entry, ‘Continental Drift’, […]
This holiday season sees the arrival of Ice Age: Continental Drift on Blu-ray 3D, Blu-ray and DVD. The film is coming out on December 11th and is packed with bonus goodies for everyone to enjoy. The latest adventure for Manny and the gang (also Scrat) proved to be quite a profitable one, looking at the […]
Scrat’s Nutty Pursuit causes a continental cataclysm. Separated from their herd, Manny, Diego and Sid use an iceberg as their sea-fairing ship. But their voyage home is full of surprises. This animated family comedy stars the voices of Ray Romano, Denis Leary, Queen Latifah and John Leguizamo. Directed by Steve Martino, and Mike Thurmeier. Written […]

Magnolia Films is set to release Brad Anderson’s (The Machinist, Session 9, Transsiberian) on Blu-ray this May. Vanishing On 7th Street is the story of a mysterious blackout that blankets Detroit. Only a few strangers are left among the heaps of empty clothing, empty cars, and abandoned buildings. They are not alone. Evil lurks in […]
“Welcome to a celebration of TRUTH, BEAUTY, FREEDOM, and above all things, LOVE.” Hallelujah! My “Holy Trinity” is now complete on Blu-ray! Well, what I meant to say is that I could not be happier now that my favorite three films of all-time are ALL finally on the Blu-ray format. Oh yeah, dummy me; I […]
Let’s cut straight to the chase here. I realize that I am probably going to lose credibility points amongst the masses for having nothing but good things to say about this Blu-ray release, but today I became something I never thought I would ever be…a “gamer.” Yes, that’s right, today I fell in love with […]
