The latest entertainment news and reviews in 4K UHD, Blu-ray, movies and more…
Well, it’s clear the American trailers have done a disservice to Peter Rabbit. Based on the classic children’s stories created by Beatrix Potter, this 2018 cinematic interpretation has the appearance of…well, something like Smurfs. The actual film is much better. It’s no Paddington 2, which came out first and could bury this movie any day […]
As Walking Dead‘s Negan would say “oh shiz.” It’s that time of year again that I dread the most. It’s colder. It’s more expensive because of the holidays. And worse of all I have to publicly proclaim which film titles I liked the most. I sound like a broken record, but this year more than […]
The year is closing down, but that doesn’t mean the indie film fare train is in anyway starting to cinematically slow down. (Aka there is life besides end of year Oscar fare film freaks!) Teen detective stories, road racing outings, wild bio-pics, women in the wasteland and cheaters getting their due all make up the […]
Before we begin here let me ask you guys this. Have you ever heard the phrase hiding in the spotlight? Well I got to be honest with you. This Warner Bros./Amazon Exclusive Harley Quinn Suicide Squad Blu-ray set brings that phrase to life. I mean at least for me it does and here’s why. Don’t […]
It’s that time of the year again, and I’m not referring to the expensive Holiday season. I’m talking about the dreaded TOP 10 Favorite Films lists us reviewers annually face. While some of us love putting these lists together others I know absolutely dread it. It could be the notion of the extra work involved […]
Unlike last year, this was a brave, bold, new world for me in terms of Blu-ray collecting. I upped my game as I stepped into the 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray arena. I took on the combatants (HDMI handshake and audio sync issues being most problematic) like a champion and came out unscathed. You can read […]
Suicide Squad is one of those movies where you just have to get that first screening under your belt. It’s like being on a Southwest Airlines airplane. You know how you hear that ding and the captain says you’re now free to move around the cabin? It’s sort of the same principle with David Ayer’s Suicide Squad. […]
Drop the microphone! The movie event of the year is coming to home media next month! Bring the Squad home when “Suicide Squad” arrives onto Ultra HD Blu-ray, Blu-ray 3D Combo Pack, Blu-ray Combo Pack, DVD and Digital HD. From director David Ayer (“Fury,” “End of Watch”) comes “Suicide Squad,” starring Oscar nominee Will Smith […]
The Legend of Tarzan feels like a film that was set up to fail from the very start. How much interest is there really with a modern day telling of Tarzan where your leading man sports blonde locks? The trailers were personally satisfying, but something about it just reeked of stay away to me. That’s […]
I’m in love with my post title up above. Get it? The Legend of Tarzan “SWINGS” onto Blu-ray. LMAO. Anyway, I have some news for you here. Follow along please. The King of the Jungle returns when The Legend of Tarzan arrives onto Ultra HD Blu-ray, Blu-ray 3D Combo Pack, Blu-ray Combo Pack, DVD and […]
Suicide Squad needs no further word of mouth to market this one. Warner Bros. made plenty sure of that with all the various trailers and TV spots. Heck, Margot Robbie is practically the poster child of this one. Who needs the Joker and Batman? She sells the film herself as Harley Quinn, but seriously. The […]
There’s a scene at the end of the second act of Suicide Squad where Task Force X, a group of supervillains brought together to fight fire with fire (sometimes literally), hang out in a bar. The idea is to have the group relate to each other and come to the conclusion that the world may […]
Okay! So like I needed a third reason! While I’m holding up the home front here in Austin, TX while my peers are living it up at San Diego Comic-Con 2016 today in Hall H, videos like this that Warner Bros. just released online make it a good time to be alive. After all, Batman […]
For all The Legend of Tarzan has going for it, which includes big stars, big budget effects and a proven director, the resulting film is a bland misfire. Attempting to create new interest in a 100+ year old pulp hero is not a terrible idea, but this film has seemingly no ambition to do much […]
“Tina Fey shines” (Scott Mendelson, Forbes) in the wickedly entertaining comedy WHISKEY TANGO FOXTROT, arriving on Blu-ray Combo Pack, DVD and On Demand June 28, 2016 from Paramount Home Media Distribution. The film debuts two weeks early on Digital HD June 14. WHISKEY TANGO FOXTROT is a sharp and savvy film that critics are calling “boldly […]

The film debuts two weeks early on Digital HD June 14. Based on real-life reporter Kim Barker’s revealing and funny memoir about covering the […]
I have to admit, I wasn’t the biggest fan of David Ayer’s Suicide Squad when it was announced and especially after seeing stills of the Killer Croc or whatever his name is. However, everything started to shift emotionally within me when the first trailer dropped. Then came the next and so on and they just get […]
Pushing convention aside, it is great to get a comedy where smart characters actually do and say smart things. That should be simple enough, yet so many films fail to deliver. Time and time again, we watch supposedly smart characters commit the most idiotic of actions to drive a plot forward. Whiskey Tango Foxtrot is […]
