Roman J. Israel, Esq.

Allison Rose | Nov 22, 2017

Roman J. Israel, Esq. was unsettling in both a good and a bad way and at moments was difficult to watch. However, Washington is so amazing in general, and incredible in this role specifically, that the uncomfortable feeling is tolerated in order to see how the plot plays out in the end.

Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone

Allison Rose | Nov 21, 2017

If you are a Harry Potter fan and own a 4K Blu-ray player it is time to upgrade your collection to the latest technology. You won't regret it as you experience the movie anew in a whole new way.

Coco

Judith Raymer | Nov 21, 2017

Stunning. Stimulating. Surprising. Funny. Mesmerizing. Moving. Disney/Pixar film, Coco transcends the typical animated film.

Justice League

Allison Rose | Nov 15, 2017

I went into Justice League with somewhat low expectations and walked out with a slightly brighter outlook than I expected. With some funny moments to lighten the mood and some strong (literally and figuratively) characters.

Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets

Allison Rose | Nov 14, 2017

Besson has a unique way of telling science fiction stories and Valerian follows that same mold. With an artistic flair, he graphically paints a picture and blurs the lines between perception and reality.

Preacher: The Complete Second Season

Allison Rose | Nov 13, 2017

Overall, Preacher Season Two is a somewhat uneven season but still enjoyable for the most part. It will be interesting to see what they do next.

Atomic Blonde

Nathan M Rose | Nov 13, 2017

Atomic Blonde was a bright spot in a very lackluster summer. It continues the trend with this release. Providing a complete package of entertainment and escapism that is mastered with the best possible quality.

Patti Cake$

Allison Rose | Nov 13, 2017

While Patti Cake$ is not overly long, the film is entertaining with the help of terrific characters. An underdog itself, it fights its way to the top to be among the contenders.

Home Alone 2: Lost in New York

Allison Rose | Nov 10, 2017

Culkin was a wonderful actor as a child and, to be honest, this film series wouldn’t have been the same with a different actor in the role. His slightly mischievous smile and maturity really make one believe that a young boy could be lost in New York all by himself and manage to pull it off.

The Crown Physical Media: Blu-ray Review

The Crown: The Complete First Season

Jennifer Broderick | Nov 07, 2017

The Crown is beautifully tailored, both the writing and production flow, bringing into our homes a real-life tale of what it really takes to be Queen Elizabeth II. Purchasing this Blu-ray for your home is a definite must!
