Brewster’s Millions was an incredibly fun comedy flick with the great Richard Pryor turning in a hilarious performance set against an outrageous but hilarious premise.

Young Justice: Outsiders – Season 3 Blu-ray Review
Young Justice: Outsides: The Complete Third Season was a wish come true for fans of the series before it was cancelled after only two seasons and even as someone who wasn’t a regular viewer, watching this third season was a lot of fun.

The Fan (1981) Blu-ray Review
The Fan is a film that showcases the talents of both Lauren Bacall and a young Michael Biehn turning in a sometimes creepy performance as a celebrity stalker.
Joker 4K Ultra HD and Blu-ray Review
Joker is one of the more unique experiences I’ve had, and perhaps helping is that I am a fan of DC characters, and while this may not be a comic accurate portrayal, the performance by Joaquin Phoenix was nothing short than incredible.
Candy: Shout Select Blu-ray Review
Candy is a tough and brutal look at the costs of addiction and its effects on relationships, and features two great performances by Heath Ledger and Abbie Cornish.
My Name is Myeisha Blu-ray Review
My Name is Myeisha is certainly an interesting film apparently adapted from a stage play which is pretty evident, even so, the performance from newcomer Rhaechyl Walker was a nice surprise.
Lucky Day Blu-ray Review
Lucky Day at times feels like Tarantino-lite which isn’t necessarily a bad thing, but much of this thin plot doesn’t quite work, although I did like Crispin Glover’s crazy performance that almost makes this worthy of a rental.
Duplicity Blu-ray Review
Duplicity didn’t do a whole lot for me when I last saw it back in 2009 as the chemistry between Julia Roberts and Clive Owen wasn’t entirely palpable though I did enjoy some of the story elements.
After the Wedding Blu-ray Review
After the Wedding features some great performances by a respectable cast that includes Julianne Moore, Michelle Williams and Billy Crudup, along with the young and talented Abby Quinn, but the film falters in the script and editing.
Project Ithaca Blu-ray Review
Project Ithaca is a mess of a film between some bad acting mixed with haphazard script and scattershot editing, beyond that it’s just that compelling of a story, this is the type of movie that would wind up as part of free option on Amazon Prime.
Rambo: Last Blood 4K Ultra HD and Blu-ray Review
Rambo: Last Blood might not have the same feel compared with the others in the series, but I still found this to be a compelling action-thriller and another good performance from Sylvester Stallone.

Semper Fi Blu-ray Review
Semper Fi is a drama that meanders in spots and the writing isn’t always the best, including the introduction of best friends at the opening which felt off, but outside of that, the acting at least was respectable.
Snow Falling on Cedars: Collector’s Edition Blu-ray Review
Snow Falling on Cedars is a poignant, somber little drama-mystery, with great cinematography, that for one reason or another has kind of been forgotten.

Ambition Blu-ray Review
Ambition is normally the type of movie right in my wheelhouse and the film does start off well enough before coming right off the rails at the end. However, I will say lead actress Katherine Hughes acquitted herself well enough.
The Anne Bancroft Collection: Shout Select Blu-ray Review
Anne Bancroft was a fantastic and mesmerizing actress in just about everything she starred in and this collection release from Shout Factory has some of her greats, a few more notable than others.
