Resist the temptations of oppressive spirits when The Conjuring 2 arrives onto Blu-ray, DVD and Digital HD. New Line Cinema’s supernatural thriller The Conjuring 2, with James Wan (Furious 7) once again at the helm following the record-breaking success of The Conjuring and bringing to the screen another real case from the files of renowned […]
There hasn’t been that much buzz leading up to the theatrical release of The Conjuring 2. While it took me a couple watches to warm up to the first installment (my Blu-ray review here), I guess what I’m most surprised is the return of James Wan in the directors chair. After he got the invite […]
New Line Cinema’s supernatural thriller The Conjuring 2, with James Wan (Furious 7) once again at the helm following the record-breaking success of The Conjuring, brings to the screen another real case from the files of renowned demonologists Ed and Lorraine Warren. How exciting is this? Ed and Lorraine are back! Even better, the master […]
Big city lawyer Hank Palmer (Robert Downey Jr.) returns to his childhood home where his estranged wife father, the town’s judge (Robert Duvall), is suspected of murder. He sets out to discover the truth and along the way reconnects with the family he walked away from years before. l l l
Defend your honor when “The Judge” arrives onto Blu-ray Combo Pack, DVD and Digital HD on January 27 from Warner Bros. Home Entertainment. “The Judge” stars two-time Oscar® nominee Robert Downey Jr. (“Chaplin,” “Tropic Thunder”) and Oscar® winner Robert Duvall (“Tender Mercies,” “Crazy Heart”) alongside Oscar® nominee Vera Farmiga (“Up in the Air,” “The Conjuring”) […]
There is a scene in The Judge that features the big city lawyer and his estranged father having a huge argument during a violent wind storm. It is just one of the many scenes that really want to hammer home the emotions on display. Despite featuring a solid cast and moments where they can shine, […]
Academy Award nominees Andy Garcia (Ocean’s 11, City Island) and Vera Farmiga (A&E’s Bates Motel, Up in the Air) star as straight-laced, George and eccentric Edith, two strangers who meet on their children’s college tour at the idyllic Middleton University. Despite their opposing temperaments, George and Edith play hooky together, ditching the textbook tour for […]

I’m going to be completely honest with everyone here. The Conjuring flat out looked like a movie I would want to see upon first viewing of the film’s trailer earlier in the year. If I didn’t get into an early press screening of the film, then you’d better believe I would have laid down my hard earned […]
Today must be National James Wan day, huh? First the release of Insidious: Chapter 2 (and review here) and now the announcement of The Conjuring scaring the bejesus out of you on October 22nd courtesy of Warner Bros. Home Entertainment. You can’t say James Wan is just sitting idle and not going places…he’s driving “fast […]
As much good as The Conjuring has in it, I wish the marketing didn’t spoil the film’s key scene. I am not going to delve to deep, but Lili Taylor (one of the unluckiest actresses, given that for such seemingly nice woman, she always seems to play emotionally or physically scarred characters) is involved in […]
I’m going to be completely honest with everyone here. The Conjuring flat out looks like a movie I would want to see. If I wasn’t getting into an early press screening of the film, then you’d better believe I’d be laying down my hard earned cash to cover the price of admission over the weekend. […]
A quick introduction, as this is my first WonderCon 2013 article, I will have been in attendance all weekend for WonderCon at the Anaheim Convention Center in Anaheim, California and hope to bring plenty of cool info regarding several upcoming films. First up is the new film from director James Wan (Saw, Insidious) called The […]
I have to admit. I know it sounds cheesy, but this film really was an adrenaline rush from start to finish for me. I’m talking about the Denzel Washington/Ryan Reynolds vehicle, Safe House, that is. I actually saw it twice in the theaters. Unless it’s The Dark Knight, that’s something I usually don’t do, but […]
Safe House has a lot of elements that should make it a pretty good watch. A first rate cast, a solid story setup, and an “R” rating earned through the use of non-gratuitous violence, are all aspects that had me excited from the trailer alone. For the most part, this film delivered just that, but […]
I have quite enjoyed the work of Oscar nominated actress Vera Farmiga and this past year she apparently tried her hand at directing her first feature film. That film is Higher Ground, which makes its Blu-ray debut this coming January. The film is based on a memoir that revolves around the story of an eighteen-year […]
I was hoping for more from a little arthouse flick about a bank robbery and the art of theater. It seemed like a nice change in pace for Keanu Reeves, who can be capable when he isn’t being openly mocked (some would say unfairly). Plus, Vera Farmiga and James Caan were on hand as co-stars […]
I’m very entertained by the casting of this movie. It has Keanu Reeves, Vera Farmiga, and James Caan. I missed it when it came out in limited release, but now we’ll all have a chance to see Henry’s Crime. On August 23rd, this film will be released onto Blu-ray and DVD. It is about a […]
