Return of Ultraman is another zany science fiction fantasy adventure series. There are some fun moments amongst the stilted dialogue and half-baked storytelling which, more often than not, culminate with Ultraman taking on the episode’s creature.

Hudson Hawk (Reto VHS Cover) Blu-ray Review
Hudson Hawk isn’t as bad of a movie as it’s been made to be, but certainly not great by any stretch as some of the humor, not to mention the overcomplicated story, doesn’t always work.

Bombshell Blu-ray Rundown
Bombshell, starring an all-star cast including Charlize Theron, Nicole Kidman, John Lithgow and Margot Robbie comes out on Blu-ray and DVD from Lionsgate this Tuesday, March 10th.
Titans: The Complete Second Season Blu-ray Review
Titans: The Complete Second Season is a solid step up from season one, though I am biased as a fan of Deathstroke who was the central villain, and the new Titans crew is a lot of fun, yes even the arrogant Jason Todd.

UltraSeven: Complete Series 03 Blu-ray Review
UltraSeven, the third series in the Ultraman franchise, and while this is not always my cup of tea, it still holds some entertainment value at least and plenty of funs as you watch men in goofy costumes fight amongst miniature buildings.

Frozen II 4K Ultra HD and Blu-ray Review
Frozen II is a slight step up from the first film, though notable that I am in the minority as I wasn’t a big fan of that movie, and with this film at least the music was better.
Masked and Anonymous: Shout Select Blu-ray Review
Masked and Anonymous is a movie I never had heard of before despite featuring a noteworthy cast, most of whom appeared for the opportunity to work with veteran musician Bob Dylan. For fans of Dylan, this might be a treat.

Midway 4K Ultra HD and Blu-ray Review
Midway was a nice surprise as going in didn’t have much of any expectations, but found the action to be well done and features a fine ensemble cast, no one really standing out, and instead the air battles take center stage.
Rosewood Lane/White Noise: The Light Blu-ray Review
Rosewood Lane and White Noise: The Light aren’t exactly top-of-the-line movies and the pairing is a bit odd as one is a grounded thriller while the other is in the supernatural realm.

Doctor Sleep 4K Ultra HD and Blu-ray Review
Doctor Sleep wasn’t the most enthralling film, but I did enjoy some of the performances, mostly Ewan McGregor and Rebecca Ferguson with a nod to young Kyliegh Curran, and the special attention writer-director Mike Flanagan paid to the material.

Ford v Ferrari Blu-ray Review
Ford v Ferrari is probably one of my favorite movies of the year, a great mix of high-adrenaline racing and excellent acting by both Matt Damon and Christian Bale.
The Good Liar Blu-ray Review
The Good Liar is a movie only worthwhile for excellent performances by two of the best actors around in Helen Mirren and Ian McKellen, it’s too bad the plotline, and third act specifically, wasn’t better.
Frankie Blu-ray Rundown
Frankie is an ensemble drama featuring some fine actors, headlined by Isabelle Huppert and co-starring Brendan Gleeson, Marisa Tomei and Greg Kinnear. The DVD and Blu-ray is now available for purchase or rental.
Color Out of Space 4K Ultra HD & Blu-ray Review
Color Out of Space might not have been completely my cup of tea as I prefer a more traditional horror, but I can acknowledge some of the creativity and there were a few great moments that presumably Lovecraft fans will appreciate.

One Missed Call Trilogy Blu-ray Review
One Missed Call might not be in the top-tier when it comes to the creepy vengeful girl subgenre within J-horror and is entertaining and fairly engaging even with some of the tropes and clichés.
