Dexter: New Blood (Blu-ray Review)

Dexter: New Blood should probably be called “Dexter: A Breath of Fresh Air.”  That’s what the show was for me after the lackluster way it ended some ten years ago with Season 8.  Dexter became a lumberjack and the loyal Showtime audiences of the show became very disinterested.  I admit to being very skeptical and […]

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 […]

Sundance Film Festival 2021 – Fourteen Encapsulated Movie Reviews

The 2021 Sundance Film Festival has officially closed its virtual curtains and it was an interesting one to say the least.  On the positive side one could not only check out various film fare from home but also skip past the way too revealing programmer intro so going into the movie cold was a blissful […]

Game Night (Blu-ray Review)

Amid the triumphant box office phenomenon that was Black Panther, we witnessed many would-be blockbusters falter of produce average/underwhelming results. However, there were some solid counter-programming hits during that run. One of those was the R-rated adult comedy-mystery Game Night.  Taking the silver to Black Panther its opening weekend, the film made a solid run […]

Justice League: Gods And Monsters (Blu-ray Review)

This is not your parents’ Justice League! These heroes are not the renowned saviors of the world – they’re more likely Earth’s despotic rulers.

Gregg’s Tremendously Top 10 Blu-rays of 2013

There were plenty of great releases that arrived on store shelves this year, but let’s be honest. Will any year really compare to what came out in 2012? I mean, last year for Blu-rays was like what 1939 was for cinemas. It was only twelve months ago when the year’s releases included E.T., Jaws, Singin’ […]

Dexter: The Sixth Season (Blu-ray Review)

I didn’t get into the Showtime series Dexter until about its fourth season.  It’s not that I had anything against it, actually I heard quite a bit of positive buzz about it (namely from my ex co-worker Sandy), but it was that I was too cheap to subscribe to the premium channel.  Needless to say, […]

Gregg’s Top 10 Blu-rays of 2011

So many Blu-rays, so little time. If I bought every disc I wanted to see this year, I would’ve gone broke before the summer ended. There were some great releases that didn’t make my list such as Swingers, Attack the Block, and True Blood: Season 3. Then there were the sure-fire films I thought would make […]

Peep World (Blu-ray Review)

I’ve recently become addicted to the TV show Dexter, and I requested a copy of Peep World on the basis that it stars the man who plays Dexter, Michael C. Hall.  When the Blu-ray arrived, I study the outside of the box to see that Michael C. Hall is not the first or only name listed. […]

‘Peep World’ Is An Uneven Look At A Dysfunctional Family

There are ways to make a dysfunctional-family comedy work.  Arrested Development will go down as one of the great comedy television shows of all time, because of the wide range of talent split between all of the different members of the family, the dynamic of those relationships, and how super sharp and hilarious the writing […]

Dexter Season 4 Kills on Blu-ray This August

Here’s a TV show on Blu-ray that was a complete blind buy for me.  Well, really for my wife, as she bought Seasons 1,2 and 3 for me on Blu-ray this past Valentine’s Day.  I know.  I have a great wife!  Anyway, I am ecstatic to report that Season 4 of Dexter has just been […]

Gamer (Blu-ray Review)

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 […]

Gerard Butler’s Gamer Invades Blu-ray In January!

Gamer is another movie that totally slipped past my radar, this year, during its theatrical run.  If only I had more time in life to accomplish everything I want to.  I bet we all say that at one point or another.  Anyway, enough excuses!  My time to see Gamer in glorious High-Definition will be here […]
