Superman: 5-Film Collection 4K Ultra HD Review
The Superman: 5-Film Collection has four movies making their debuts on 4K, though really only two of them are worth a damn. I suppose if you’re a Superman fan, maybe it’s worth it, but probably only when it’s on sale.

Superman IV: The Quest for Peace 4K Ultra HD Review
The less said about Superman IV: The Quest for Peace, the better. It was a misfire from the go and even the charms of Christopher Reeve could make this watchable.

Superman III 4K Ultra HD Review
Superman III was pretty much the beginning of the end of the Superman franchise. It’s not terrible but not very good either, moving to full-on goofy humor (versus a more wholesome variety of the first film), and an awful villain.

Babylon 4K Ultra HD and Blu-ray Review
I can give some credit to writer-director Damien Chazelle’s vision and what he was trying to accomplish, and it does seem this was a passion project but with a 3-hour running time, there was a good chunk that could’ve been removed.
Heat (1986) Blu-ray Review
Heat is a movie that’s passably entertaining if only for Burt Reynolds’s charisma but otherwise the plot plods along and like the 2015 re-adaptation Wild Card, it’s nothing special and an altogether forgettable crime-thriller.
Backtrack Blu-ray Review
Backtrack had an interesting enough premise, a hitman falling for his target, but the execution was less than effective, though Dennis Hopper’s performance was something to behold.
Virtual Reality Blu-ray Review
Virtual Reality arrives on Blu-ray from Kino Lorber on April 4th. This horror-thriller stars Vanesa González and Federico Bal.
