In My Country is a finely acted drama from Samuel L. Jackson and Juliette Binoche telling an interesting and well written story based off of a novel.

Skyscraper 4K Ultra HD & Blu-ray Review + BD Screen Caps
Skyscraper isn’t a terribly impressive action film even by the mindless entertainment kind, but it is passable enough even if the plot heavily borrows from The Towering Inferno and Die Hard.

Queen of Outer Space Blu-ray Review
Queen of Outer Space is a cheesy yet also somewhat dull of a 1950s era science fiction genre, though still a lot of fun for just how bad it is and a fun time can be had, MST3K-style.
X-Men: 3-Film Collection 4K Ultra HD + BD Screen Caps
This X-Men: 3-Film Collection is okay and does come with good video upgrade and already solid audio, however the big downside with this set is that the studio failed to port over the second discs for each film which contained some expansive documentaries.

Punisher: War Zone 4K Ultra HD Review + BD Screen Caps
While hardly bad, Punisher: War Zone suffers mostly from a thin story and a tonal mismatch from the serious Punisher character versus the ever so cartoony villain and the campy performance from Dominic West.

The Punisher 4K Ultra HD Review + BD Screen Caps
The Punisher is probably a mid-tier comic book movie and while it’s certainly not great, I did find it mostly entertaining mainly for Thomas Jane rather than the plot or thinly written villain.

Scarlet Diva Blu-ray Review
Scarlet Diva is by no means a bad movie, just not quite fully fleshed out and does have some amateurish filmmaking and style, though for what I’m sure was a considerably limited budget, not too bad.
Puppet Master: The Littlest Reich 4K Ultra HD and Blu-ray Review + BD Screen Caps
Puppet Master: Littlest Reich is a reboot to the long-running franchise and while it’s not a great film, still had some fun entertainment value and as a fan of Thomas Lennon, was nice to see the actor in a lead role.

Beauty Shop Blu-ray Review + Screen Caps
With the success of the Barbershop movies, and with at the time Queen Latifah’s growing fame following her Academy Award nomination for her supporting role in Chicago, it’s no surprise there would be a spin-off with Beauty Shop which had a good heart at its core.
Barbershop 2: Back in Business Blu-ray Review + Screen Caps
Barbershop 2: Back in Business is a fine sequel and although, as with the first film, isn’t my cup of tea in terms of comedy but any fan of Ice Cube or Cedric the Entertainer might find it entertaining.

Barbershop Blu-ray Review + Screen Caps
Barbershop is a fun enough ensemble comedy that actually shows some depth for Ice Cube unlike some of this crappy family adventure fare.
Siberia Blu-ray Review + Screen Caps
Siberia had the opportunity to be a compelling little crime-drama along the lines of A Simple Plan (same author and screenwriter) and although Ana Ularu was impressive in her performance, Keanu Reeves was a bit flat with some tepid dialogue.
Solo: A Star Wars Story Blu-ray Review + Screen Caps
Solo: A Star Wars Story might be unnecessary and it’s also not all that memorable, yet it was entertaining enough for what it is and featured some fun action set-pieces and the performance from Ehrenreich.

Gotti Blu-ray Review + Screen Caps
Gotti is a well intentioned but terribly conceived bio crime drama with some so-so acting but worse, terrible editing and pacing making for just an all around bad movie.
Scream for Help Blu-ray Review + Screen Caps
Scream for Help is an odd little 1980s movie where the first two-thirds are kind of Nancy Drew like but the final third was genuinely thrilling, negating any issues I had.
