Ratched
As origin stories go, this one makes some interesting assumptions as to who Mildred Ratched really is yet doesn’t steer away from plausibility in any way.

Roman Holiday
The marrying of a classic movie with the most up to date technology makes this release a must-have.
The Flash: The Complete Sixth Season
The cast has terrific chemistry which is part of what has made the show so popular.
Mulan
Those hoping to see a new version of the animated movie will be disappointed. This Mulan has its own feel and texture.
Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows
It is quite rare in the film industry for a sequel to be just as good, if not better than the original film but that seems to be the case here.
The Goonies
The Goonies may have been released three and a half decades ago but it stands the test of time.
Beetlejuice
Keaton shines in this role, breathing life (pun intended) into an immature and manipulative ghost.
Sherlock Holmes
Downey, Jr. is the perfect casting choice who manages to bring a somewhat lackluster script to life.
The Personal History of David Copperfield
Iannucci offers an interesting interpretation of this classic story, beginning with the casting.
Batwoman: The Complete First Season
Overall, the show isn’t too bad and has a similar look and feel of many of the other shows in the Arrowverse so it’s not a complete departure of the tried and true.
