Spaceballs (Kino Lorber) 4K Ultra HD & Blu-ray Review
Spaceballs is a classic comedy from Mel Brooks, one that I’ve seen a few times over the years and while it’s not a favorite of mine, still makes for and fun and enjoyable 96-minute watch.

Perdita Durango 4K Ultra HD & Blu-ray Review
Perdita Durango was an engaging and, in a twisted way, entertaining romantic-thriller featuring two fantastic performances by Rosie Perez and Javier Bardem, both of whom should’ve gotten some major award recognition.

Southland Tales (Arrow Video) Blu-ray Review
Southland Tales no doubt was ambitious and back in the day, based purely off of Donnie Darko, I looked forward to it, but the blend of political satire/commentary and end-of-the-world science fiction never gelled.

A Scream in the Streets Blu-ray Review
Crash isn’t a movie I found all that great though my interest was mainly for some of the controversy and honestly as strange as the “plot” and characters were, it’s not that out of bounds at least nowadays.
Wonder Woman 1984 4K Ultra HD & Blu-ray Review
Wonder Woman 1984 was a disappointment, especially when compared with the first film and while I had plenty of issues with some of the story elements, I can’t say it’s bad and probably worthy of a rental or outright purchase to add to ones superhero collection.

Psycho Goreman Blu-ray Review
Psycho Goreman is a throwback to 1980s/1990s horror-fantasy akin to Power Rangers, just with gore and irreverent humor. Not my cup of tea but is fun enough for those with a nostalgia hankering.
Event Horizon: Collector’s Edition Blu-ray Review
Event Horizon is a movie I’ve seen a few times and my ratings ranged from 3.25-3.75 with this go-around on the lower end. There is some entertainment value but the film doesn’t exactly reach its full potential.

She’s the Man Blu-ray Review
She’s the Man might not exactly be some teen comedy classic but had a few moments here and there and was a launching pad for Channing Tatum. The new Blu-ray comes from Paramount released on March 3rd.
Godzilla (2014) 4K Ultra HD & Blu-ray Review
Godzilla (v.2014) isn’t a bad movie, not by any stretch, but it didn’t quite meet its full potential. The visual effects are great and when Godzilla finally shows up on screen, 59-minutes in no less, the energy picks up only to get bogged down again with the human element.

The Undoing: Limited Series Blu-ray Review
The Undoing is a well made suspense-mystery featuring some compelling performances from Kidman, Grant and Sutherland that easily overcomes some of the shortcomings.

Stiletto Blu-ray Review
Stiletto is a slow burn thriller and while I don’t mind these sorts of movies, there’s little suspense or thrills and sorely underwritten characters, particularly the main as portrayed with little charisma by Alex Cord.
The Fear: Limited Edition Blu-ray Review
The Fear is far from a great independent horror-thriller but admittedly there are some moments of pure entertainment, mostly for the climax more so than the bulk of the film that don’t make much sense.
Madame Claude Blu-ray Review
Crash isn’t a movie I found all that great though my interest was mainly for some of the controversy and honestly as strange as the “plot” and characters were, it’s not that out of bounds at least nowadays.
