Theatrical, 4K UHD, Digital HD, and Blu-ray Reviews

The Visit For those looking for a jump out of your seat, wet your pants, scary, gory slasher film, The Visit isn’t it.  It is more psychological in nature and what I would classify as a thinking man’s horror thriller.  | Full Review...

The Originals: The Complete Second Season The Originals Season 2 Blu-ray set is a great presentation of one of prime times great tv shows. Season two quickly expands on the mythology laid out by the first season and raises the stakes. It is a must for any Originals, Vampire Diaries fan, and, it's even great for the casual viewer. | Full Review...

The Vampire Diaries Season 6 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. | Full Review...

Mad Max: Fury Road 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.  | Full Review...

We Are Your Friends 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. | Full Review...

American Ultra 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. | Full Review...

Hitman: Agent 47 When Hitman: Agent 47 fails at the box office, one could, and will, argue the case that Hitman: Agent 47 didn’t fair well because R rated films have fallen out of fair with audience. However, this couldn't be further from the truth. Hitman: Agent 47 failed because of a weak script created by a studio hack that has a track record of horrible films. | Full Review...

Mike & Molly: Season 5 Under all the humor (or lack there of), the show has some heart and a good “soul” which makes for a feel good half hour each week.  Unfortunately, it isn’t enough.  I wouldn’t be surprised if the show only has one or two seasons left. | Full Review...

2 Broke Girls: The Complete Fourth Season 2 Broke Girls was originally panned by critics in season one, the show has managed to survive, won two People’s Choice Awards, and garnered a following that has warranted a fifth season starting this Fall on CBS.  | Full Review...
