Pan
Allison Rose | Dec 22, 2015
Presented in 1080p high definition video, the picture is very impressive with fantastic colors and extremely clear images. The 3D version of the film pops off the screen and add great depth to the presentation of the film.

Ted 2
Nathan M Rose | Dec 15, 2015
While the first film was just exploring the world of Ted and his best friend, John Bennett (Mark Wahlberg; Transformers: Age of Extinction), the new film expands the storyline and tries to answer the age old question - what makes someone, or something, human?

Ant-Man
Nathan M Rose | Dec 08, 2015
While Kevin Feige does try to keep the look and feel of most stories told in the Marvel Cinematic Universe the same, he does allow some directors to add a little bit of their own distinctive tone to the film. Such is the case with Ant-Man’s director, Peyton Reed (Yes Man).

The Minions
Nathan M Rose | Dec 07, 2015
Overall, Minions has a very upbeat quality to it, and while the story is a bit lacking, the hijinks of the Minions help save the film from becoming another film in the 3D animated cannon fodder.

The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies Extended UK Edition
Paul Kates | Nov 23, 2015
So, after fourteen years and six movies, does this disc set bring an end to Peter Jackson's love affair with middle earth? Who knows, but, if it is the case, it's a worthy conclusion, and, along with the other five movies before it, it should be in everyone home collection.

The 30th anniversary Blu-ray 4 disc set comes in a great little book-like packaging with pictures and details of each disc. For the Ultimate Back To The Future fan this is a great holiday gift and one to be treasured.

Man From U.N.C.L.E.
Allison Rose | Nov 17, 2015
Ritchie makes The Man From U.N.C.L.E. campy and fun, while throwing in big stunts and explosions similar to his other films. The action and story flow well and the picturesque shots are breathtaking.

The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies Extended Edition
Nathan M Rose | Nov 16, 2015
While Jackson’s extended editions are usually the “go to” choice when choosing on film editions, The extended edition of The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies can’t help the film from being just a 164-minute coda to a trilogy that was already complete.

Trainwreck
Nathan M Rose | Nov 09, 2015
Trainwreck is a decent entry into the family of Judd Apatow comedies, and while the film does not really have rewatchability, it is a film with a lot of heart and showcases Amy Schumer’s acting skills.

The Goonies
Paul Kates | Nov 05, 2015
1985 - the year the first cell phone call was made and compact disc’s first showed up on the high street and anyone who was anyone tried the “truffle shuffle”, which means the timeless “cult” classic that is The Goonies is 30 years old!
