Lethal Weapon Physical Media: Blu-ray Review
Lethal Weapon: The Complete First Season
Allison Rose | 
Fans of the original Lethal Weapon film will want to compare the show with the films but doing so would be detrimental to any chance of enjoying the series. Giving it a fair shot on its own, one will find it to be a decent piece of work with a lot of thought and time put into its writing and production.

Arrow Physical Media: Blu-ray Review
Arrow: The Complete Fifth Season
Jennifer Broderick | 
I am glad Arrow went through a bit of a reinvention this past season.  New faces bring a new enthusiasm to the script and storyline and we are constantly reminded in Season Five that not only is the team simply human, but Arrow is simply a man.

Wonder Woman
Allison Rose | 
In the realm of superhero movies, Wonder Woman is a shining example of a film done right.  From Director Patty Jenkins (Monster) to Gadot to the costumes, script, and visuals there is very little to complain about. This is one movie everyone should own.

The Mummy Physical Media: 4K UHD Review
The Mummy
Nathan M Rose | 
As with most modern day film 4K releases, The Mummy looks amazing. The UHD color palette truly shines through during the Iraq desert scenes as well as providing a dark ominous look to the catacombs of London.

Phantasm Physical Media: DVD Review
Phantasm 5 Movie Collection
Leonard Buccellato | 
There’s one thing most fans agree on, Angus Scrimm’s gravitas and gleeful grimness helped propel these stories and make us want to see more of him and his world. We may have lost a horror icon in 2016 but his legend and legacy live on, and with this collection: “It’s Never Over!”
