Game of Thrones: The Complete Eighth Season is probably the lesser of the series and the storylines didn’t quite gel and did feel rushed at times, though still left satisfied for the most part.
Body Parts is an entertaining little horror-thriller, a Frankenstein-like feature, starring the wonderfully underappreciated Jeff Fahey and the gore effects work for the time wasn’t half bad.
House by the Cemetery might have its merits and perhaps die-hard fans of Lucio Fulci may find it entertaining, but for myself it was more confusing and even tedious. However, this Limited Edition release by Blue Underground is very well done.
MacGyver, like the remakes of Hawaii Five-O and Magnum P.I. (which makes up CBS’ Friday night lineup) is updated for the 21st century and 21st century audiences with more flash and flare than anything resembling good storytelling.
Sliding Doors is such an interesting concept of a movie that works thanks to the lovely performances from both Gwyneth Paltrow and a John Hannah who has a lot of quirky charm. After all these years, the film still holds up so well.
Let’s Scare Jessica to Death is certainly an odd title and really doesn’t factor into the plot, which was a tad uneven at times, but I still found the film, which I discovered has a cult following to be entertaining enough thanks to a charismatic cast.
The Goldfinch is a well shot film with a great cast that includes Ansel Elgort, Sarah Paulson, Jeffrey Wright and Nicole Kidman, sadly the story wasn’t very interesting, was a tad too long.
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: 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 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.
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 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 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.
