A Fish Called Wanda
Allison Rose | Oct 03, 2017
A Fish Called Wanda is a new classic that people remember and love and was a good choice for the new Blu-ray “makeover” and re-release. If you loved the movie back in 1988 this version will surely please you.

L.A. Confidential
Allison Rose | Oct 03, 2017
The script is a perfect example of masterful screenwriting. There are so many intricacies to the story but nothing feels bogged down or skimmed over and the story is fairly easy to follow and not confusing at all.

Empire: The Complete Third Season
Allison Rose | Sep 26, 2017
Empire has a few things going for it...First and foremost is the cast. Howard has moments of pure evil and he can shut a person down with just a glaring stare. His non-verbals are just as potent as the words coming out of his mouth.

Shameless: The Complete Seventh Season
Sean Ferguson | Sep 25, 2017
Shameless is one of the funniest shows on television, and while a lot of what happens on the show is quite terribly wrong, at the heart of the show is a family that loves and cares for each other and is just trying to get by in this crazy world.

Modern Family: The Complete Eighth Season
Allison Rose | Sep 25, 2017
With some laughs still in play and the entire original cast still an integral part of the show, Modern Family has a lot going for it, which is probably why it has at least two more seasons.
