Do you remember the 1992 LA Riots? I know I do. The whole debacle was covered by news outlets much like they did in The Hunger Games, filling homes with the disparate violence and angry response to the unjust not guilty verdict given to the police officers who beat an unarmed Rodney King one awful […]

From the moment the marketing began with Cocaine Bear, the world was well aware of its presence. And rather than just being something goofy shared with friends and chuckled at on social media, people actually were curious and showed up to the movie. And, they also were plenty satisfied with what they saw. In addition […]
There was always going to be a tricky line to walk with The Many Saints of Newark. Making a prequel film to The Sopranos, one of the most acclaimed TV series of all time, means trying to show an audience something that feels familiar yet new. Fortunately, creator David Chase is smart enough to put […]
4K UHD has been impressing me along the way this year. One thing I really want to see more of on the format are classic films. I know new films are going to look shiny, new and vibrant. But, what I really want to see is how the vintage stuff is going to look and […]

In 2005 I fell in love with Sin City. While the worst thing that film may have given since us was the directional ambitions of the graphic novel’s creator Frank Miller (see don’t see: The Spirit), it had plenty else to offer. Director Robert Rodriguez delivered an ambitious and visually stunning adaptation of a few books from the […]
The Muppets was a ceremonious return of our Jim Henson puppeteered crew of Kermit the Frog, Miss Piggy, Fozzy Bear, Gonzo and all our Muppet pals. It was also a pretty sweeping success, so of course with there was going to be a sequel. However, Jason Segel made it clear he was one-and-done so he […]

I really did not know what to expect with this one having not seen anything Muppets on television or in the movies since my childhood. I’m not entirely sure why I went that long with a Muppet-like drought, but nevertheless I did. However, much to my surprise, Muppets Most Wanted was like a family reunion […]
Film is a visual medium in which to craft visual tales. Unlike programming on radio airwaves before it, a movie is able to let you see what is going on and keep you engaged primarily with what you are seeing with your eyes. Someone never conveyed this to director Waymon Boone. The Devil’s In The […]
Twisting and turning its way onto Blu-ray is Anchor Bay’s Pawn. It’s a film that lives on the plot twist, double cross and connectivity between characters. With so many new revelations and turns through the film’s runtime, this film should be a mess. However, it’s not clumsily handled, not expertly either, but well enough to […]
