The Railway Man is based on the World War II memoir of Eric Lomax, who is our character of focus in the film. I found the film to look and feel a little like those “safe” movies due to its gloss, polished aesthetic. But with the power of its performers and events depicted in the […]

Wow! What can I say about this feature(s) that hasn’t been said before? There’s a million and one ways I can spin this. Was I curious about it? Hell yeah I was. Was I scared of it? Honestly, I was a little bit. I really didn’t know what to expect when I first popped this Blu-ray title into my […]

The second film in Marvel’s “Phase 2”, Thor: The Dark World, is coming your way on Blu-ray. I was a bigger fan than most on the original Thor, and I really think that film was a good set up with the characters and introduction to the Thor-verse to take it to another level with this […]

Before I begin I have to be honest with you all. I forgot how awesome the first Thor movie really was until I revisited it this past weekend, finally being able to unwind and watch a Blu-ray in my new house. Anyway, the first Thor is a big ball of fun, in my opinion, and […]

The mighty Thor returns to the big screen this November, but right now we have the first trailer. We at Why So Blu disagree about the merit of a lot of movies, but Thor seemed to be the film that we could all agree was good (some argue great). Now Thor 2: Still Thor is […]

Good Will Hunting is a movie that I have always really enjoyed since it came out in 1997 and established Matt Damon and Ben Affleck as big time stars. They won an Oscar for their screenplay, as did Robin Williams for his wonderful performance in the film. It has been 15 years since that film […]

David Fincher’s newest flick, The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, features an unforgettable opening sequence reminiscent of star Daniel Craig’s other franchise, which coincidently, is also filled with sex, spy gadgets and wealthy super villains. This movie begins by flashing sort-of-nude dancers writhing to a tune related to the movie, like Octopussy or Goldeneye did […]

Based on the peppy title I have given to this review, audiences should know they should be bracing themselves for doom; although I could be misleading you, were you not to look further. Earlier in 2011, Terrence Malick arose from the depths of wherever he goes in the many years in between his films to […]

Summer, 2011, is an important time for Marvel Studios. Both Thor and Captain America are going to hit theaters, and they have been designed to build into the Avengers movie that will be released in 2012. A dense movie universe, with so much history and comic mythology behind it, has not been attempted before, so […]
