The Final Word on Physical Media
War for the Planet of the Apes is a strong conclusion to a well done trilogy. This one features a fantastic motion-capture performance from Andy Serkis and some excellent visual effects to aid.

The Lift wasn’t a very good movie with poor pacing and absolutely unnecessary scenes such as the main character’s family drama which could’ve been cut out with no problem. But the horror elements were alright but this is a case where I actually prefer the remake.
Although I wasn’t as head-over-heels for Baby Driver compared to some, a few even calling it subtle which this is not, this still is an entertaining time with a tried and oft successful plot and features some great car chases, the opening especially, and is worthy of a rental at the least.
Innocent Blood is an utterly cheesy but fun early 1990s vampire drama with an over-the-top performance from Robert Loggia and French actress Anne Parillaud is, ahem, well suited for the vampirella femme fatale central role.
Vikings was never a show I could fully get into, but the performances all around aren’t half bad and, like Game of Thrones, feature some respectable production and costume designs.

Brigadoon isn’t exactly a well known musical-romance but it does have some catchy music for the era and two charming performances by Gene Kelly and Van Johnson.
The Green Slime is a ridiculously poorly produced 1960s science fiction horror film that is absolute fun that should be watched with a group of friends to mock MST3K style.
Batman vs. Two-Face makes for a bittersweet swan-song for the late and great Adam West making his final foray as the Caped Crusader, a role he apparently relished until the end. This outing is a slight improvement over the disappointing Return of the Caped Crusaders with a stronger story and more compelling villain.
God of War isn’t a great war film but the action and fight sequences were well shot by action director Gordon Chan and the lead performance from Vincent Zhao was well balanced.
The Sea Wolf is a wonderful sea-adventure flick released back in 1941 and features some great performances including Edward G. Robinson and amazing Academy Award nominated special effects.
Impractical Jokers: The Complete Fifth Season is pretty much up to snuff with its previous seasons and the jokes, as well as challenges, still are quite funny. The only downside is these season sets aren’t as well done probably because TruTV constantly reruns past episodes every day.

Down (aka The Shaft) is an incredibly flawed but yet still quite entertaining supernatural horror flick that doesn’t have many surprises to offer and the writing isn’t the best, though watching this amongst friends makes for a good time.
The Collection is a very well made UK production featuring some great performances, Richard Coyle especially, and some excellent and award-worthy production/costume designs.
The Hidden was quite the, well, gem, of a movie that I never really heard of, a film that was released in 1987 but got lost. My hope is with this Blu-ray release it’ll find some sort of bigger cult status as it is an incredibly fun flick.
Reign was never a show I could get into. As I mentioned previously, it is a glossy, CW-ized version of Game of Thrones (so basically no foul language, lewd sex scenes or graphic violence) but amongst the ‘tween crowd, they might eat up the cast and storylines.
