Drive Angry 2D/3D (Blu-ray Review)

Drive Angry has made this Nicolas Cage fan very angry.  I’m angry at Nicolas Cage for seemingly being unable or unwilling to turn down a movie role.  Listening to the audio commentary, the director says Nicolas Cage read the script and said “I have to do this movie.”  Saturday Night Live (SNL) does a skit […]

Leaving Las Vegas (Blu-ray Review)

Wow, two seriously messed up relationship films in a row for this humble reviewer must be a record! (Betty Blue would be the other one) That’s okay, because when it comes to Blu-ray my gluttonous tendencies know no bounds.  Years before he would actually be considered insane in some circles Nicolas Cage was out there […]

Moonstruck (Blu-ray Review)

Norman Jewison’s Moonstruck paved the way for other culturally focused comedies like My Big Fat Greek Wedding where the story revolves around a large family who loves, fights, and eats together.  In this case, the movie is about the Castorini family, an Italian brood that sticks together despite some problems which include infidelity, curses, and […]

‘Drive Angry’ Made Me Aggravated That There Wasn’t More Angry Driving

This is strange, but I am going to have to both judge this movie, while defending Piranha 3D.  I think Piranha was the kind of film where I could have written the exact same review and assign it either a 1 star or a 4 star rating (which is what I ended up doing).  That […]

Brian’s TOP 10 Films of 2010!

The calendar year of 2010 started off a little rough, in my opinion, for the world of movies.  It was a little too rough, if you don’t mind me saying.  Anyway, it was not until the month of March that I saw the first film I deemed worthy of even talking about, Shutter Island.  Needless […]

The Sorcerer’s Apprentice (Blu-ray Review)

I recently had the chance to talk about this film with it’s director, Jon Turteltaub which you can read here and now I’ve had the chance to watch his movie on Blu-ray to see the finished result. I wasn’t sure how the movie would turn out as it was based on the most popular cartoon […]

A Talk with Director Jon Turteltaub

I had the good fortune to be allowed to participate in a round-table discussion with the Director of The Sorcerer’s Apprentice (and the National Treasure series) to promote the upcoming Blu-ray and DVD releases of the movie.  A lot of times, it’s hard to get a lot of questions answered either due to the quantity […]

Comic-Con 2010: Drive Angry 3D

I’m finally scraping the bottom of the barrel with all my Comic-Con 2010 coverage, but that doesn’t mean the following stories are any less important than the others.  I usually save some of the best for last.  Usually.  Drive Angry 3D is a hard R-rated action/adventure that was filmed in Real 3D and proudly features […]

Kick-Ass (Blu-ray Review)

To say that I was not looking forward to the April 16th theatrical release date of Kick-Ass would be like saying that I would rather watch a DVD of my favorite film over its superior Blu-ray counterpart.  It’s just not going to happen.  And now that my number four film of the year is coming […]

Kick-Ass is Less Than a Month Away on Blu-ray!

I cannot wait for August 3rd, despite hating wishing the summer away, for Kick-Ass to arrive on the Blu-ray format.  Currently my #4 movie of the year, I have no doubt that Kick-Ass will deliver a powerful punch on the Blu-ray format.  I received an email last week on behalf of Lionsgate promoting a clip […]

This April is Going to KICK-ASS!

Can you believe it?  We are now almost 3 months away from one of the biggest movies that will drop this year…KICK-ASS!  Yes, Avatar and Iron Man 2 may have been the talk of the town during Comic-Con 2009, but the real hidden gem that made it’s presence known with ferocity and comedic genius was […]
