Homeland: The Complete Fourth Season

Nathan M Rose | Sep 21, 2015

While Homeland Season four is a nice reinvention of the series, and in my opinion the strongest of the seasons, unfortunately, it’s Blu-ray release just doesn’t do it justice. Hopefully Season 5’s home entertainment release will make-up for it in 2016.

The Big Bang Theory: The Complete Eighth Season

Allison Rose | Sep 14, 2015

The Big Bang Theory has a lot of life left in it and it will be interesting to see how they manage to continue the momentum.

Gotham: The Complete First Season

Maureen Buccellato | Sep 14, 2015

The show itself is dark, and accurately portrays Gotham as a town overrun by various mob organizations. I was definitely left wanting more and the series finale leaves you hanging on the edge of your seat.

Supernatural Physical Media: Blu-ray Review

Supernatural Season Ten

Nathan M Rose | Sep 12, 2015

Now entering it’s 11th season, Supernatural, by this time, is critic proof. Saying that, I really still enjoyed Season 10 of the show, and it’s presentation on Blu-ray Combo Pack is top notch. Supernatural still probably has another 2-3 years before it has stayed out it’s welcome.

The Originals Physical Media: Blu-ray Review

The Originals: The Complete Second Season

Nathan M Rose | Sep 08, 2015

The Originals Season 2 Blu-ray set is a great presentation of one of prime times great tv shows. Season two quickly expands on the mythology laid out by the first season and raises the stakes. It is a must for any Originals, Vampire Diaries fan, and, it's even great for the casual viewer.

The Vampire Diaries Physical Media: Blu-ray Review

The Vampire Diaries Season 6

Allison Rose | Sep 03, 2015

The Vampire Diaries Season 6 maybe the saddest and bloodiest one so far. From other worldly prisons, to a new witch/vampire hybrid, the supernatural dimension went into overdrive this year.

Mad Max: Fury Road

Allison Rose | Aug 31, 2015

While I can’t say I was as enthralled with Mad Max: Fury Road as most people, I did enjoy finding out what all the excitement was about. I found myself in awe over some of the stunts and impressed with much of the acting.

Far From the Madding Crowd

Allison Rose | Aug 11, 2015

While the story itself isn’t all that exciting, this version is well acted and directed and overall has an excellent quality that makes it worth seeing.

Hot Pursuit

Allison Rose | Aug 11, 2015

Sadly, Hot Pursuit completely missed the mark by not utilizing these two talented ladies. I‘m not sure what they saw in this film when they read the script, but, it isn’t funny, interesting or original.

Home

Sean Ferguson | Aug 07, 2015

I give DreamWorks’s “Home” 3 Slushy flavors out of 5. …of course Busta Lime is my fav! It’s fun, entertaining, has a great soundtrack, and is quite informative on the dangers of unique passwords!
