Ocean's 8
While the mostly female cast might make it seem like a girls night out movie, this is a film both men and women alike can enjoy.

Every Day
A good script and cast combined with a unique and interesting story is a winning combination and a film every teenager and their parents should watch.
Peter Pan Anniversary Edition
If you have young ones or are a new grandparent, I recommend picking this release up of Peter Pan today if you don’t already own it.
Adrift
Compelling and life-affirming, Adrift is a real-life survival story...Emotional and draining it will make you wonder what you have been doing with your life.
Jurassic Park 25th Anniversary Collection
The audio is slightly upgraded to DTS:X (from DTS-HD Master audio 7.1). The now infamous roar in Jurassic Park is full and vibrates throughout your entire house.
The Patriot
The Patriot is a solid Mel Gibson film that also showcased an up and coming talent that was Heath Ledger.
Early Man
Early Man is encoded with Dolby Atmos and, if you have a surround sound system, you can definitely hear the difference.
Red Sparrow
Theatrically there is style sewn throughout Red Sparrow, but at times, it simply needed more.
The Matrix
With the addition of the 4K quality, The Matrix is once again an experience everyone should have at least once.
Solo: A Star Wars Story
As a standalone film, Solo: A Star Wars Story has a good plot, interesting characters, and well-done action scenes. As part of the classic franchise, it comes across a little disjointed and disconnected.
