Exodus: Gods and Kings is an epic. There is no way around that. Regardless of my thoughts on the film as a whole, director Ridley Scott has made a film that is grand in scale, fully realized in its depiction of an ancient time, and littered with extras, sets, props, and obvious visual effects in […]
It can be interesting to watch veteran actors continue to try their hand at directing. Fading Gigolo is John Turturro’s fifth effort as a director and while he builds a very non-flashy film out of a fairly silly premise, it is not without merits. While the film owes a lot to one of its main […]
I wouldn’t have thought that “Woody Allen/John Turturro: Male Gigolo” would intrigue me, but here we are. Millennium Entertainment is proud to announce that the hilarious and touching FADING GIGOLO, will be available on DVD and Blu-ray™ on August 19, 2014. Writer, director and star John Turturro (O Brother, Where Art Thou?, Transformers) leads an all-star cast including Academy Award® winner Woody […]
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 […]

Summer 2011 came and went like a thief in the night. It is the Fall season (at least it’s approaching the Fall season), and one of Summer 2011’s flagship films is here on the Blu-ray format! That film is Transformers: Dark of the Moon. If you’re a a fan of the first two films, then […]
Fed up with crushing rocks on a prison farm in Mississippi, the dapper, silver-tongued Ulysses Everett McGill (Clooney) busts loose…except that he’s still shackled to two misfits from his chain gang: bad tempered Pete (Turturro) and sweet, dimwitted Delmar (Tim Blake Nelsen). With nothing to lose and buried loot to regain, the three embark on […]
Wow, looks like it’s time to party like it’s 1999, I mean 1998, up in here! Time really flies when you’re having fun. It seems like yesterday when I was watching these two up-and-comers tackle the screen with an industry veteran. The newbies were Matt Damon and some kid named Edward Norton. The veteran was […]
Spectacular action, stunning visual effects, non-stop thrills and fan-favorite characters including OPTIMUS PRIME, BUMBLEBEE and Sam Witwicky rocketed Transformers: Dark of the Moon into the stratosphere, with the latest installment of the wildly popular TRANSFORMERS franchise surpassing its predecessors to earn over $1.1 billion at the worldwide box office. From Paramount Pictures in association with […]
Bowling, nihilists, a stolen rug and the occasional acid flashback have never been funnier when one of the most popular cult classics in history, The Big Lebowski Limited Edition, debuts on Blu-ray August 16, 2011 from Universal Studios Home Entertainment. From the Academy Award-winning Coen brothers, The Big Lebowski is a hilariously quirky comedy about bowling, a […]
Throughout time, as far as Autobots are concerned, it has always been important to fight for what is right. I think Michael Bay believes in what is right, I really do. His more is more approach has proven to be poison from a critical standpoint, but I truly believe that he enjoys being able to […]
Last year I made the incorrect assumption of thinking Toy Story 3 would be Pixar’s way of easing back into simple comedy territory, after delving into more complex emotional territory with Up and Wall-E. I was wrong, as Toy Story 3 not only turned out to be a powerhouse adventure/comedy, it also managed to pack […]
Disney/Pixar has done it again! Of course, I’m talking about Cars 2! Owen Wilson and Larry the Cable Guy are back with a great new adventure for Lightning McQueen and Mater, as they head to the first ever World Grand Prix to determine the world’s fastest car. This animated feature takes us to Japan and […]
From the Academy Award-winning Coen brothers, The Big Lebowski is a hilariously quirky comedy about bowling, a severed toe, White Russians and a guy named…The Dude. Jeff “The Dude” Lebowski doesn’t want any drama in his life…heck, he can’t even be bothered with a job. But, he must embark on a quest with his […]

More importantly, how does the film look and sound in its Blu-ray debut? We’ll answer those questions and more in today’s […]
