Prisoners is a more eclectic, divisive film than I was anticipating.

Impractical Jokers Physical Media: DVD Review

Impractical Jokers: Season One

Chris Rebholz | Dec 17, 2013

There’s no denying the fun that can be had at playing a prank on friends, and while that can be harmless enough when in private, it’s a little childish when taken to the streets and used on complete strangers.

Simpsons: Season 16

Paranoia

Chris Rebholz | Dec 02, 2013

Disney's Frozen A charming film that conjures up memories of Disney’s delightful past animated features.

The World's End

Chris Rebholz | Nov 26, 2013

Is there a genre Edgar Wright and cohorts in crime Simon Pegg and Nick Frost haven't tackled? Victorian period romance, I suppose. Otherwise, it's all fair game for the Cornetto Trilogy boys....
