Dune: Part One
With a less the auspicious legacy, Warner Bros. took a risk by redoing Dune, and I am willing to bet their gamble will pay off.
Snake Eyes: G.I. Joe Origins
While Golding offers a different portrayal than the rich, debonair pretty boy we have seen in the past, he can’t save this film.
Smallville: The Complete Series 20th Anniversary Collection
From the very beginning it was apparent Smallville was something special.
Halloween Kills
Green, along with writer Scott Teems (That Evening Sun) do a wonderful job of mixing the past with the present to remind movie goers of where the franchise started and how far it has come.
The Last Duel
Director Ridley Scott (Alien) utilizes his trademark visual style to bring medieval France to the audience and make them feel as if they were transported there themselves.
Inglourious Basterds
[Inglourious Basterds] is quintessentially Tarantino and a masterpiece that will be considered a classic fifty years from now.
Lamb
Lamb is artistic and evokes a variety of emotions but while a half sheep, half human baby seems cute, it is also a little disturbing.
Legend: 2-Disc Limited Edition
The film has glaring faults that cannot be overlooked so while Arrow does a superb job packaging this release, the movie itself could use a makeover.
The Crocodile Dundee Trilogy
Hogan has a certain charm that make most audiences fall in love with him.
