The Death of Superman Blu-ray Review + Screen Caps

The Death of Superman was a great addition to DC’s Animated Movie line with a tight and well told adaptation of the famous story, doing far better justice than Superman: Doomsday, and some fine voice talent work in addition, though Rainn Wilson’s Lex Luthor sounded off.

Life of the Party Blu-ray Review

Life of the Party might be a far more tolerable Melissa McCarthy vehicle compared to Tammy and The Boss, but it’s still not all that good, either, with the humor rarely hitting the mark.

The Life and Times of Judge Roy Bean + Screen Caps

The Life and Times of Judge Roy Bean is a solid western which is saying something coming from someone who generally isn’t the biggest fan of the genre outside of the classics and it excels thanks to Paul Newman’s charms.

Billy Budd Blu-ray Review + Screen Caps

Billy Budd is a well made, high-seas adventure film that features a great breakout performance from Terence Stamp marking only his second feature film (his first also was released in ’62).

Lionheart Blu-ray Review + Screen Caps

Lionheart is a film with the right mixture of cheese and genuine entertainment and was one of Jean-Claude Van Damme’s breakout role. Although his acting still wasn’t great (seemed to get better the more major roles he received), I still enjoyed the film in spite of the flaws.

Dark Crimes Blu-ray Review + Screen Caps

Dark Crimes had some potential and as a fan of these procedural murder-mysteries, this should’ve been right in my wheelhouse, but instead we get a dry and at times dull story with poor pacing; outside of Jim Carrey’s devoted performance, this is not something I could recommend.

Someone’s Watching Me Blu-ray Review + Screen Caps

Someone’s Watching Me might not be top shelf John Carpenter, even when taking into account the limitations of being made-for-television, but it is quite entertaining with some genuine thrills.

I Feel Pretty Blu-ray Review + Screen Caps

I Feel Pretty is a movie with a fine message but falls flat with poorly written jokes and a plot that doesn’t exactly feel fresh, a rehash of something like Shallow Hal.

Super Troopers 2 Blu-ray Review + Screen Caps

Super Troopers 2 might’ve been a passion project for the many fans of the 2001 film that garnered cult status over the course of a decade, but for someone who only felt so-so about that one, this sequel was, most of the time, painfully unfunny.

The Children of Huang Shi Blu-ray Review

The Children of Huang Shi is a very well told, finely acted and all around beautiful looking film by director Roger Spittiswoode and his cinematographer Xiaoding Zhao.

Gravity Falls: The Complete Series + Screen Caps

Gravity Falls: The Complete Series is the only way to get all of the episodes after Disney only released various episodes in different volumes, but thanks to Shout we get them all in one set.

In the Mouth of Madness: Collector’s Edition Blu-ray Review + Screen Caps

In the Mouth of Madness is the best Stephen King adaptation that wasn’t with a trippy premise and great performance from Sam Neill under the direction of John Carpenter.

Piranha II: The Spawning Blu-ray Review + Screen Caps

Piranha II could’ve been a fun bad movie but it was just plain bad with terrible acting, poor writing and just an all around miserable experience.
