Arrow: The Complete Fifth Season

Jennifer Broderick | Sep 19, 2017

I am glad Arrow went through a bit of a reinvention this past season. New faces bring a new enthusiasm to the script and storyline and we are constantly reminded in Season Five that not only is the team simply human, but Arrow is simply a man.

Wonder Woman

Allison Rose | Sep 19, 2017

In the realm of superhero movies, Wonder Woman is a shining example of a film done right. From Director Patty Jenkins (Monster) to Gadot to the costumes, script, and visuals there is very little to complain about. This is one movie everyone should own.

E.T.: The Extra-Terrestrial

Allison Rose | Sep 14, 2017

The 4K E.T.: The Extra-Terrestrial Blu-ray really stands out in 2160p resolution with an aspect ratio of 1.85:1 and H2.65 HVEC Codec. While the film was never intended to be seen in this advanced format the picture doesn’t come across as grainy and the effects don’t seem fake.

The Mummy

Nathan M Rose | Sep 14, 2017

As with most modern day film 4K releases, The Mummy looks amazing. The UHD color palette truly shines through during the Iraq desert scenes as well as providing a dark ominous look to the catacombs of London.

Phantasm 5 Movie Collection

Leonard Buccellato | Sep 12, 2017

There’s one thing most fans agree on, Angus Scrimm’s gravitas and gleeful grimness helped propel these stories and make us want to see more of him and his world. We may have lost a horror icon in 2016 but his legend and legacy live on, and with this collection: “It’s Never Over!”

Supernatural Physical Media: Blu-ray Review

Supernatural: The Complete Twelfth Season

Nathan M Rose | Sep 08, 2017

With The CW agreeing to fund Supernatural as long as Jared and Jensen want to do it there seems to be no end in site for the Winchester brothers and things that go bump in the night.

The Flash Physical Media: Blu-ray Review

The Flash: The Complete Third Season

Jennifer Broderick | Sep 06, 2017

The Flash is probably one of the best television shows today. The writers bring you into the story and you feel invested as to what happens. The actors seem like a real team and their problems and achievements become yours.

Red 2

Allison Rose | Sep 06, 2017

If you were looking for the same brilliance found in the first Red film, lightning doesn’t strike twice I’m afraid. However, the characters are still loveable and the concept is terrific. There are also some great lines and scenes that make the movie worth watching.

Gotham: The Complete Third Season

Jennifer Broderick | Sep 06, 2017

Gotham is a network much like the mob mentality it presents, like a spider spinning its web, ensuring that all the facets of each inner workings run smoothly. The storyline is the central focus along with the different characters and all the side stories.
