Urban Legends: Final Cut was a poorly made horror sequel to a movie that wasn’t all that good, though at least in that case I appreciate the passion behind it, this one seemed to be cooked from numerous producers.

Urban Legend: Collector’s Edition Blu-ray Review
Urban Legend is one of many slasher movies to come out of the late 1990s/early 2000s thanks to the massive success of Scream. I never was a big fan of the movie mainly because I never found it all that scary.

Law Abiding Citizen 4K Ultra HD Review
Law Abiding Citizen was a bit of a disappointment for me. I know what the filmmakers’ were after by making giving the audience a difficult choice of which character to ‘root’ for, but the moral choice didn’t work for me.
Rambo III 4K Ultra HD Review
Rambo III is easily the weaker of the original three films of the series with the action not quite measuring up to the first two and even Stallone felt a bit wary with his performance that didn’t feel very energetic. Still, it was moderately entertaining.
Rambo: First Blood Part II 4K Ultra HD Review
Although Rambo: First Blood Part II didn’t have as much of an emotional core compared with the first movie and is certainly far more fantastical as well, yet it does have all the hallmarks of an entertaining over-the-top violence-laden action-fest.

First Blood 4K Ultra HD Review
First Blood was a fantastic and well made action-thriller that gave audiences a bit of a different look at Sylvester Stallone outside of his Rocky character and outside of Crenna’s scene-chewing moments, this is a great film and heartfelt performance by Stallone.
Sleepwalkers: Collector’s Edition Blu-ray Review
Sleepwalkers isn’t a favorite horror-fantasy of mine, though I’m also not a big fan of Stephen King adaptations either save for The Shining. That being said, there are some wonderfully amusing moments.

MacGyver: The Complete First Season Blu-ray Review
MacGyver: The Complete First Season is a fun if not flawed beginning to a fine series helped mostly by Richard Dean Anderson and the character’s creative ways to get out of trouble using everyday objects, with a handy pocketknife at his aid.

Incredibles 2 4K Ultra HD and Blu-ray Review
Incredibles 2 might not be top-of-the-line Pixar but it undoubtedly a fun and often funny family movie that is a great way to spend two hours and certainly brings back the good memories of the first film from over a decade ago.

Air Force One 4K Ultra HD Review
Air Force One is a strange film, a kind of film from simpler times I guess but after 20 years, for the most part the film holds up well, mainly for the performances by Harrison Ford and Gary Oldman more so than the dated visual effects.
The Meg 4K Ultra HD and Blu-ray Review
The Meg is a fun enough if not also forgettable science fiction action-adventure flick, a bigger budget version of a plot you’d see from Asylum that somehow managed to get an A-grade actor to star.
The Last Ride DVD Review
The Last Ride is a fun 1940s-era crime-drama with some solid performances by Richard Travis and Charles Lang, as well as an on-the-rise Eleanor Parker.
Single White Female Blu-ray Review
Single White Female is a well made suspense-thriller made so due to some wonderful performances from both Bridget Fonda and Jennifer Jason Leigh who in particular was frightening.
Slender Man Blu-ray Review
Slender Man was a poorly conceived project where there’s not even a good idea at its core, but even besides that, its several years too late and given the darker connections to the character should have given the studio some pause to even make it.
Black Widow (1954) Blu-ray Review
Black Widow actually is a unique film noir in an era that was filled with them and at its core, a well done murder mystery. The film also features some wonderful performances, most notably, Van Heflin, Ginger Rogers and Peggy Ann Gardner.
