Supernatural Physical Media: Blu-ray Review

Supernatural Season Ten

Nathan M Rose | Sep 12, 2015

Now entering it’s 11th season, Supernatural, by this time, is critic proof. Saying that, I really still enjoyed Season 10 of the show, and it’s presentation on Blu-ray Combo Pack is top notch. Supernatural still probably has another 2-3 years before it has stayed out it’s welcome.

The Visit

Allison Rose | Sep 10, 2015

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.

The Originals Physical Media: Blu-ray Review

The Originals: The Complete Second Season

Nathan M Rose | Sep 08, 2015

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.

The Vampire Diaries Physical Media: Blu-ray Review

The Vampire Diaries Season 6

Allison Rose | 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

Allison Rose | 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

Allison Rose | 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.

No Escape

Nathan M Rose | Aug 25, 2015

In every sense, the word 'thriller' has never been more accurate to describe a film.

American Ultra

Allison Rose | 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.

Hitman: Agent 47

Nathan M Rose | Aug 20, 2015

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.

Mike & Molly: Season 5

Allison Rose | Aug 18, 2015

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.
