Poms is a fine, even at times sweet, little comedy-drama featuring some great performances from its older cast, with Diane Keaton still showing she’s got so much charm.

Killers Anonymous Blu-ray Review
Killers Anonymous had a fun premise and a great actor in Gary Oldman, but neither aspect resulted in anything very entertaining in a movie which consisted of characters in a mostly singular location talking, culminating with a convoluted twist.
Batman: Hush 4K Ultra HD & Blu-ray Review
Batman: Hush is a not top-of-the-line entry in the DC Animated Universe line and while the deviation from the source material is understandable, even necessary, what they went with was hardly satisfying.

The Sun is Also a Star DVD Review
No real surprise that I never heard of the novel it’s based upon, The Sun is Also a Star is a fine romance-drama that never manages to impress beyond a scene or two with leads, yet fans of the genre might get more enjoyment out of it.
Chasing the Moon Blu-ray Review
Chasing the Moon, the latest in the “American Experience” line is a very well made documentary series going through man’s quest to travel to the moon to beyond.
Roxanne Blu-ray Review
Roxanne is a wonderfully breezy romantic-comedy that one can’t help but smile from beginning to end, mostly because of Steve Martin’s understated but still fulfilling performance alongside a nice supporting cast.
Avengers: Endgame Blu-ray Review
Although at its core I don’t think Avengers Endgame was as strong compared to Infinity War, the emotional aspects however more than made up for it, and the biggest impact was Robert Downey Jr.’s fantastic performance.
Long Shot Blu-ray Review
Long Shot is a decent enough romantic-comedy that doesn’t exactly break new ground and doesn’t stretch Seth Rogen’s acting abilities while Charlize Theron is as graceful as always.
Gotham: The Complete Series Blu-ray Review
Gotham was hardly a perfect series and didn’t always have the strongest characters, especially the side ones (like Victor Fries) but I did generally enjoy it all things considered.

Cruising Blu-ray Review
Cruising is a pretty tough movie to sit through with some dark subject matter that I predict wouldn’t go over too well even today, even so, Al Pacino and Paul Sorvino both give strong performances.
The Curse of La Llorona Blu-ray Review
I suppose it’s a good thing that I went into watching The Curse of La Llorona with zero expectations and even then, the movie couldn’t even measure up to that low standard.
Vice Squad: Collector’s Edition Blu-ray Review
Vice Squad is a very unique and somewhat underappreciated crime-thriller with some truly uncomfortable scenes but solid acting from Season Hubley and, especially, Wings Hauser who delivers a chillingly masochistic performance.

Missing Link Blu-ray Review
Missing Link is a nice little stop-motion animated film with a standard but still entertaining story to go along with a nice voice cast which includes Hugh Jackman, Zoe Saldana and Zach Galifianakis; I would say this worth a rental.
Critters Attack Blu-ray Review
Critters Attack might’ve been 25+ years in the making but what we get instead is an insipid story, which would’ve been fine if not for the fact it was mostly dull and lacked any real fun or entertainment.
What We Left Behind: Looking Back at Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Blu-ray Review
Even though I was not a major fan of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine having limited experience watching the series, What We Left Behind is still a compelling enough documentary.
