Mortal Kombat (2021) 4K Ultra HD & Blu-ray Review

Mortal Kombat isn’t a terrible movie but kind of a typical one in the video game to film adaptation realm. I did appreciate the use of violence copying the video games but the story isn’t great and the acting to be average at best, however Josh Lawson does steal the show.

Dead & Buried 4K Ultra HD & Blu-ray Review

Dead & Buried is a fun little horror-mystery with a plot that would’ve fit in with an episode of Tales from the Crypt. The gore effects from Stan Winston were well done for its time and Jack Albertson was the standout amongst the cast.

Another 48 HRS: Paramount Presents Blu-ray Review

48 HRS: Paramount Presents Blu-ray Review

48 Hrs is a great buddy-action flick but not because of the story but, like others in the genre, the dynamic between the two leads. Both Nick Nolte and Eddie Murphy do a great job bouncing off one another.
