Based on the novel by Thomas Pynchon, the 2014 Academy award-nominated movie Inherent Vice is available now on Blu-ray, DVD and Digital HD. Starring a long l... Read More |
 
(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 4/28/2015 11:27 AM EDT The award winning series, The Mentalist, ended its seven season run this spring and is out on DVD this week. For fans of the show this short season wraps up the series with a neat little bow. While it remains the same basic formula as past seasons, the "flavor" of the show changed by end of season six and that influence permea... Read More |
(Nathan M Rose) 4/20/2015 11:36 PM EDT After the success of the 2012 film, The Woman in Black, starring Daniel Radcliffe (Harry Potter), it is no surprise that a sequel was to be made by the studio. Released in January of 2015, and now on Blu-ray, we now have the sequel entitled Woman in Black 2: Angel of Death.Unlike the first film, which was based on the novel by Susan Hill, Woma...

(Emily Hazlett) 4/7/2015 8:20 AM EDT Who knew the woods could be so magical? Apparently director Rob Marshall (Chicago) did when he made the renowned Broadway musical, Into the Woods, come to life. With the world famous cast, he takes you on a journey, which blows you away. There is definitely magic in these woods.The collaborative effort of the cast makes watching the extras worthwhi...

(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 3/25/2015 12:54 PM EDT After three movies of playing bit characters in the background, the Penguins of Madagascar finally have gotten their starring roles. The black and white flightless birds, that have always had about ten minutes of screen time, are now the main players of the hour and a half long The Penguins of Madagascar. With their crazy strategic... Read More |
(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 3/15/2015 12:01 AM EDT Sons of Anarchy, one of the most successful cable TV series ever, gave its viewers a good send off. Unlike other series finales, it doesn't leave anything up in the air but wraps things up tightly.After viewers were left reeling from the chaos of season 6, Season 7 welcomes back the gang to try and deal with everything and put things back...

(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 2/24/2015 8:27 AM EDT Recently I watched two sequels on Blu-ray - Dumb and Dumber To and Horrible Bosses 2. The latter was the better of the two films, but that isn't saying much. The aptly named Horrible Bosses 2 IS horrible and boring to boot. Once again Nick (Jason Bateman; Arrested Development), Kurt (Jason Sudeikis; We're The Millers) and Dale (Char... Read More |
 
(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 2/23/2015 4:35 PM EDT When Disney released Big Hero 6 in 2014, they only slightly altered their successful animated movie formula. Yes, it is funny. Yes, there is a cute non-human friend guaranteed to offer mass merchandising appeal. Yes, there is a terrible villain who must be stopped. The only thing missing was the beautiful princess and ...

(Nathan M Rose) 2/19/2015 10:25 PM EDT Lets get this out the way first Dumb and Dumber To is …well….dumb, I mean REALLY dumb. However, if you are familiar with the original Farrelly Brothers film, Dumb and Dumber (1994), you would except this. The story is pretty simplistic. After twenty years of Lloyd Christmas (Jim Carrey; Ace Ventura, The Mask) pretending to be cat... Read More |
(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 2/12/2015 1:09 PM EDT We've all had one of those "Murphy's law" kind of days – anything that can go wrong, will. For Alexander Cooper it seems every day is like that and the day before his 12th birthday is no exception. He wakes up to find everyone in his grade has been invited to the cool kid's party the same day as his, th... Read More |
