Wreck-It Ralph

(John Delia) 11/01/2012 8:39 AM EST
Whether you've ever heard of the video game "Fix-It Felix" or played it when you were young, Wreck It Ralph provides a fun time in this adventure for the whole family. Filled with action and comedy the animated film grabs you from the start and involves you in a tale of wonderment and hope. From sassy to sinister, clumsy to crusher ... Read More

Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter

(John Delia) 10/31/2012 9:06 AM EST
Set in the 1800s this action thriller has an odd title, one that turns history on its ear. Called Abraham Lincoln:Vampire Hunter, the film exaggerates the famous US President's penchant for destroying evil. More of a horror flick than a history lesson I found the tall tale very entertaining with some excellent CGI to ramp it up. The fil... Read More

I, Robot 3D

(Eric English) 10/30/2012 3:49 PM EST
As a society we grow more reliant on technological advances everyday. Predictions of how the world would look in a post apocalyptic modern era have largely fallen by the wayside as we ushered in an age of information rather than succumb to our autonomous robot overlords. But what if the opposite were true? 2004's blockbuster "I, Robot"... Read More

Avatar 3D

(John Delia) 10/29/2012 10:31 AM EST
Powerful, amazing, entertaining and captivating describes the way I feel about James Cameron's Avatar, a film that's a treat for sci-fi fans and action junkies around the world. Avatar has been recently released in a combo pack that includes Blu-ray 3D, Blu-ray and DVD all in one box set. The movie gets a startlingly clear and clean transfe... Read More

Pete's Dragon: 35th Anniversary Edition

(Chris Rebholz) 10/29/2012 9:32 AM EST
As a child, there were four films in constant rotation in my life: Return of the Jedi, The Secret of NIMH, The NeverEnding Story and Pete's Dragon. There were other movies scattered about as well. Some beloved, some not-so-beloved. But none were worn more ragged, none were more treasured, none more committed to memory than those four. In the ye... Read More

Silent Hill: Revelation 3D

(Chris Rebholz) 10/28/2012 1:17 PM EST
Since 2009, there have been four "Paranormal Activity" pictures. The last "Silent Hill" movie came out in 2006, which is practically a century in horror film franchise years. Genre fans have short attention spans, making the delayed appearance of "Silent Hill: Revelation" a real head scratcher, especially after the ori... Read More

Magic Mike

(Sean Ferguson) 10/25/2012 9:21 AM EST
No cover charge, no stack of singles needed. This week Warner Brothers releases Steven Soderbergh's latest hit "Magic Mike" on Blu-ray to a local store near you. If you don't know about "Magic Mike" and its six-pack abed cast let me give you a quick idea of what this film is all about. Six men dance and strip down to a... Read More

Cloud Atlas

(John Delia) 10/25/2012 8:30 AM EST
Tedious comes to mind after watching this tale of fantasy that spans six time periods within five centuries played out in nearly 3 hours. Cloud Atlas, although an admirable piece of movie making tends to be so complex that viewers I'm afraid, will just not get it. It's a brain teaser of sorts, one that challenges an audience to connect ... Read More

The Great Mouse Detective

(Chris Rebholz) 10/24/2012 8:37 AM EST
Sherlock Holmes is in the midst of yet another pop culture resurgence. Guy Ritchie and Robert Downey Jr. have brought the titular master sleuth back to the big screen. Twice. Steven Moffat and Mark Gatiss have transplanted Holmes and Watson into the modern age in the BBC's terrific Sherlock series. And Johnny Lee Miller and Lucy Liu are giving ... Read More

Touch: The Complete First Season

(John Delia) 10/19/2012 11:13 AM EST
Made up one of the most challenging and intriguing plots to come along, Touch: The First Complete Season is now available on DVD and Blu-ray in box sets. The weekly show that aired in 2012 has a lot of suspense, brain teasing and love between a father and son. I like the series, not only for the acting, but the originality and uniquenes... Read More
