Boston Movie / Film Review
Boston
Dunham does a wonderful job of including so much of the human interest angle into Boston, infusing it with grit and heart. His presentation and delivery hold the viewer’s attention even if they are a novice to the world of running and Marathons.

Stronger Physical Media: Blu-ray Review
Stronger
Stronger isn't a movie about the events of April 2013 and how it affected Boston and the United States.  Rather, it is about how one sunny afternoon affected a simple man,  his girlfriend, and his family.

Victoria & Abdul Physical Media: Blu-ray Review
Victoria & Abdul
I wonder if there is anything Dench can’t do.  Any project she is tied to is going to have a certain level of quality befitting her acting abilities and Victoria and Abdul is no exception.

Logan Lucky Physical Media: 4K UHD Review
Logan Lucky
Daniel Craig is great as this hillbilly yet intelligent criminal.  This role is unlike anything we have seen him play before as it was less serious and certainly less refined from his James Bond hero.

Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban Physical Media: 4K UHD Review
Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban
With the upgrade in technology, it is no wonder the Harry Potter series has been given the updated release.  These films are ripe for the newest and best and the transfers are very well done.
