Aladdin

Allison Rose | Oct 13, 2015

It’s difficult to find fault in any way with Aladdin and, as a fan, I say it is about time Disney released it again for everyone to enjoy.

Spy

Sean Ferguson | Oct 13, 2015

Spy is hysterical with things that go Boom! It’s rated R so don’t watch it with the kids (there’s a few naughty bits in there) and push it thru to the end to see a small clip that will crack you up!

San Andreas

Allison Rose | Oct 12, 2015

The destruction of large cities and the Hoover Dam are not easy to accomplish but the crew does it well enough, and the 1080p video and 5.1 high definition audio help to enhance those scenes beautifully.

The Gallows

Allison Rose | Oct 12, 2015

There is nothing redeeming about The Gallows and I question why it ever got made. I know it made a profit, which is, of course, the ultimate goal in movies; but it was unentertaining and moronic. Don’t waste your time or money.

Tomorrowland

Nathan M Rose | Oct 12, 2015

Tomorrowland has an upbeat message about society and is more in line of the type of film Walt Disney would have approved his company making.

Full Review | Grade: B

Poltergeist

Nathan M Rose | Oct 11, 2015

Alas, Poltergeist ultimately fails at recreating the sheer terror and excitement of the original film and is just more cannon fodder in the “why are we making remakes” mindset.

The Leftovers Physical Media: Blu-ray Review

The Leftovers: The Complete First Season

Sean Ferguson | Oct 08, 2015

I give "The Leftovers: Season 1" three out of five sharpie markers! It was four but you know how fast those markers dry out! The storylines are deep, and while sometimes PAINSTAKINGLY slow at pace, you’ll be compelled to come back for more, and maybe take up wearing white.

The Rocky Horror Picture Show Physical Media: Blu-ray Review

Rocky Horror Picture Show: 40th Anniversary

Allison Rose | Oct 05, 2015

If you are a fan of The Rocky Horror Picture Show, and all it represents, you will want to get this Blu-ray and watch it with a group of friends, plenty of wine and props to carefully throw at your TV screen.

Cop Car

Nathan M Rose | Sep 29, 2015

Overall, Cop Car is a very good piece of independent filmmaking and is a nice change of pace from the safe bets studios usually flood the theater and home theater market with.
