Movie Reviews, Digital HD Reviews, and Streaming Reviews

The BFG The fantasy world of the “dream tree” is magical though and gives The BFG a sense of whimsy and playfulness it desperately needs.  Unfortunately, those moments are too few to make a significant difference to the overall story.

The X-Files Miniseries After being off the air for over ten years, The X-Files event series was a nice return to form for one of television's most important shows ever created.

Shrek Anniversary Edition With the perfect blend of storytelling, animation, and music this is one movie (Shrek) the whole family can enjoy.

Midnight Special In an era of remakes and sequels, Midnight Special offers something a little fresh and different.

The Other Side of the Door If you want to be scared out of your mind, I suggest you choose a different film - Paranormal Activity perhaps.  The other side of the door was an idea that had some potential, but it definitely doesn’t live up to it.

Finding Dory Finding Dory is obviously one of this summer’s animated blockbusters and Disney/Pixar are counting on our love of the original film to draw audiences to the movie. Luckily, the film has the quality to make people want to see it.

The Martian: Extended Edition The real gem of the latest (The Martian) Blu-ray edition comes in the extras. The added feature is a Q&A with NASA scientists, Writer Andy Weir, Director Ridley Scott, and various other members of the space exploration community, including Bill Nye. 

London Has Fallen It was a guilty pleasure for me seeing Mike Banning again on the big screen being a one man army because these films harken back to the big action films of the 80s that I so sorely miss today.

The Complete First Season The cast (of Ballers) is terrific and work well together.  (Dwayne) Johnson is obviously in his comfort zone and his acting is better for it.

Zootopia Zootopia Stands On Its Own Two Feet, just like its Anthropomorphic Characters!
