Beetlejuice is still a fun and creative movie from Tim Burton featuring Michael Keaton giving it his all in his few scenes as the titular character.

The Dead Zone Blu-ray Review
The Dead Zone doesn’t quite enter into classic territory for me, but I did generally find it entertaining thanks to a charismatic enough performance from Christopher Walken who actually plays the lead fairly straight.
Roman Holiday: Paramount Presents Blu-ray Review
Roman Holiday marks its Blu-ray debut through the “Paramount Presents” line and the film looks as good as possible with more than adequate lossless audio along with most of the bonus material being ported over.

Z Blu-ray Review
Z is a slow burn of a movie that can be a struggle to get through, although the very least liked Keegan Connor Tracy, just a shame she didn’t get a better script to work with.
Supergirl: The Complete Fifth Season Blu-ray Review
Supergirl: The Complete Fifth Season still has similar struggles from its previous season with the writing and storytelling, and similar troubles to the later seasons of Arrow, but I still like Melissa Benoist in the role.

The Flash: The Complete Sixth Season Blu-ray Review
The Flash: The Complete Sixth Season is still the best of the CW DC shows thanks in large part to the performance by Grant Gustin and a nice ensemble cast, especially Candice Patton and Tom Cavanagh, and some decent storylines.

Superman: Man of Tomorrow 4K Ultra HD & Blu-ray Review
Superman: Man of Tomorrow is the beginnings of a new animated universe now that the previous New 52 inspired one concluded. The animation style is my biggest question mark but I did enjoy the introductions for both Lobo and Martian Manhunter.

Bad Education Blu-ray Review
Bad Education tells an interesting story in one of the more uninteresting ways, as it’s not terribly engaging. That being said, Hugh Jackman gives yet another amazing performance.
Ghost: Paramount Presents Blu-ray Review
At times Ghost can be a bit on the cheesy side but the performances of Patrick Swayze, Demi Moore and Whoopi Goldberg sell it just enough to make it an effective supernatural romantic drama.
Magnum P.I.: Season Two DVD Review
Magnum P.I.: Season Two stars Jay Hernandez and Perdita Weeks and arrives on DVD September 1st. Features include the cross-over episode with Hawaii Five-O, a couple of featurettes and a gag reel.
The Naked City: The Criterion Collection Blu-ray Review
The Naked City is a well done crime-drama that certainly was done in an interesting style with a documentary-like narration and filming on location in New York City.

Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows 4K Ultra HD Review
Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows is a fun sequel and watching them in succession, kind of enjoyed this one a bit better as it does include a great villain in Moriarty played by Jared Harris, and his ability to go up against Robert Downey Jr.’s Holmes.

Marriage Story: The Criterion Collection Blu-ray Review
Marriage Story is a bittersweet drama featuring two incredible, award-worthy, performances (not to take away from Laura Dern who was great in her own right) by both Scarlett Johansson and Adam Driver.
