Sleepy Hollow Physical Media: Blu-ray Review

Sleepy Hollow: The Complete Second Season

Sep 24, 2015

I can’t help but wonder if season three will be Sleepy Hollow’s last. If they don’t change their strategy from season two, I think many, like myself, will get bored with the “demon of the week” theme and tune out.

The Intern

Sep 24, 2015

The Intern certainly isn’t going to win any major awards, but it is a light hearted, fun look at retirement and the generation gap.

Blindspot

Sep 21, 2015

While the concept of Blindspot is somewhat familiar, the addition of the mysterious tattoos makes it a little unique. I was intrigued enough to be entertained for the hour and am curious enough to want to see what happens in episode two.

Black Mass

Sep 17, 2015

Black Mass isn’t a docudrama, nor is it a “gangster” film; and, as a straightforward drama it just isn’t all that strong.

The Visit

Sep 10, 2015

The Vampire Diaries Physical Media: Blu-ray Review

The Vampire Diaries Season 6

Sep 03, 2015

The Vampire Diaries Season 6 maybe the saddest and bloodiest one so far. From other worldly prisons, to a new witch/vampire hybrid, the supernatural dimension went into overdrive this year.

Mad Max: Fury Road

Aug 31, 2015

While I can’t say I was as enthralled with Mad Max: Fury Road as most people, I did enjoy finding out what all the excitement was about. I found myself in awe over some of the stunts and impressed with much of the acting.

We Are Your Friends

Aug 26, 2015

Entertaining as it is, and with some good acting thrown in, I think We Are Your Friends misses the mark in some aspects and won’t be a blockbuster in theaters.

American Ultra

Aug 20, 2015

American Ultra couldn’t decide if it was a serious spy movie or a parody of a spy movie, which confused the audience and left each individual trying to figure out what the purpose of the movie was.
