Spider-Man: Homecoming

Allison Rose | Jun 29, 2017

With the young cast Spider-Man: Homecoming, it is certainly geared to appeal to a tween/teen audience... Perhaps Marvel is finally trying to lighten things up a bit and if so, this was a good start and paves the way to an already announced sequel.

Despicable Me 3

Allison Rose | Jun 29, 2017

Despicable Me 3 has a lot going for it yet, somehow, it just doesn’t have the same feel as the first two films and drags a little.

Money

Allison Rose | Jun 28, 2017

As it made its way around the film festival circuit last year, Money garnered well-deserved praise and award nominations. It was a terrific film that deserves watching.

Dawn of the Planet of the Apes

Nathan M Rose | Jun 26, 2017

While technically Dawn of the Planet of The Apes is a perfect movie, it still has its flaws, but, with saying that, it is still an amazing sequel.

Rise of the Planet of the Apes

Allison Rose | Jun 26, 2017

The 4K offers a unique viewing experience that, in this case, is well worth it and any Planet of the Apes fan will not only want to get this combo pack but its sequel, Dawn of the Planet of the Apes, as well.

The Unholy

Leonard Buccellato | Jun 26, 2017

Vestron Video Collector’s Series, in my opinion, is a hit. They continue to release movies from their archives, packed with a ton of extras, too.

CHiPs

Nathan M Rose | Jun 23, 2017

The basic concepts of the show are still there, but that is about it. CHiPs is raw and action packed and wears it’s R-rated badge with pride.

All Nighter

Allison Rose | Jun 20, 2017

J.K. Simmons is perfect as the intimidating father and he plays the part beautifully. Even in a pink and gold Juicy Couture t-shirt, he exudes a masculine aura that is necessary for the role. Hirsch compliments him well and the two carry All Nighter nicely with an assist from Jimothy and Lizzie.

Life

Allison Rose | Jun 20, 2017

The 4K picture quality (of Life) is unparalleled. Sharp and so well defined, each little drop of blood floating in space is amazingly detailed. Each tentacle on the alien organism is unique and it’s hideous “face” adds to the terror. The Dolby Atmos audio is also terrific and enhances ones viewing pleasure.

Table 19

Allison Rose | Jun 19, 2017

Table 19 is a homage to the somewhat socially awkward or periphery people that attend any catered party. It’s also a heartwarming tale of how five strangers can change someone’s life in the course of mere hours.
