Heat: Director’s Definitive Edition

Nathan M Rose | May 09, 2017

There is a reason this film as been named one of the top 100 movies of all time. The cast is simply amazing, the story is one of the best crime dramas ever put on film, the dialog is sharp and smart, and the end result is an epic film that will be studied by film lovers and critics for decades to come.

Orange Is The New Black Physical Media: Blu-ray Review

The Complete Fourth Season

Allison Rose | May 09, 2017

These actors take the words they are given and breathe a life into them that can send chills down your spine. Their inflections and delivery are well thought out and deliberate and each member of the cast adds a nuanced layer to the whole show.

Fifty Shades Darker

Judith Raymer | May 08, 2017

If you’ve read the books and/or seen the movies you may decide to add this to your Blu-ray collection. If you just want a simmering introduction to the Dominant/Submissive world then, by all means, watch both the first movie and this second installment.

The Complete First Season

Allison Rose | May 08, 2017

One of the best parts of this show is the cast. Parker is spot on as the mother of two, working woman who is unhappy enough to seek lust from some other means outside her marriage.

Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2

Allison Rose | May 04, 2017

Overall, Guardians Vol. 2 still had elements of the original and even though it started off slow, it picked up steam to a supercharged, somewhat hokey ending.

The Salesman

Sean Ferguson | May 02, 2017

Overall, if you’re looking for a great story and don’t mind a little reading, I totally recommend checking out the Blu-ray release of The Salesman in stores now!

Gold

Allison Rose | May 02, 2017

While not his best performance, McConaughey is still interesting, as he adds dimensions and layers to an overall boring guy who just happens to have a dream and it is this dream that keeps us interested in the film (Gold).

A Dog's Purpose

Allison Rose | May 02, 2017

It’s a shame A Dog's Purpose had such an unfortunate incident occur before it opened, as the heart and sentiment behind the movie is pro pet, and I think a lot of pet lovers would have enjoyed it.

The Expendables 2

Allison Rose | May 02, 2017

If you or someone you love enjoyed the first Expendables movie, then you will definitely want to get yourself (or them) this one as well. It’s funnier, more well written, and more plot driven while still offering the audience lots of the action they love. It makes a great gift and is definitely worthy of any collection, especially in the 4K format.
