The Final Word on Physical Media

Although I do appreciate trying to take the franchise is a new direction, Spiral: From the Book of Saw is a complete misfire with really poor acting, bad and predictable writing, pedestrian direction and nonsensical editing.
The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge on the Run is the newest movie following SpongeBob and his loveable friends. The Blu-ray/DVD combo pack comes with some featurettes and deleted storyboards.

Icy Breasts, a terrible and inaccurate title, is a decent mystery-drama featuring from what I can tell for a foreign film, solid performances from Alain Delon, Mireille Darc and Claude Brasseur.

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.

House of Wax, while far from great, is still a decently entertaining remake featuring some well done practical and halfway respectable visual effects plus had some creepy moments.

Almost Famous is a superbly made music-drama from Cameron Crowe, digging back to his days as a teenager writing for Rolling Stone. The movie features a fantastic cast with Kate Hudson and Billy Crudup being the highlights.

Space Jam wasn’t a movie I cared all that much for upon my initial watch many years ago and revisiting today… it’s okay but nothing I’d revisit yet again.
Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory is a delightful and light-hearted family-musical-comedy featuring a wonderful performance from Gene Wilder.

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 is another average if not also forgettable sequel to a movie that I personally never was in love with, although I found it mostly entertaining. The dynamic between Murphy and Nolte wasn’t very strong and the manufactured conflict was pretty annoying.
