Full Metal Jacket
Kubrick had a way of making the audience become invested in the characters of his films and created some truly memorable ones.

Enola Holmes
What a terrific cast! Brown is perfect as the teenage, younger sister of the famed detective and Cavill does a nice job portraying Sherlock.

Kajillionaire
As Kajillionaire begins it shows signs of promise but in the end falls flat and doesn’t deliver a satisfying conclusion.

The marrying of a classic movie with the most up to date technology makes this release a must-have.
