Face/Off certainly had a few silly moments but this is a great action-thriller featuring fun performances from Travolta and Cage equally, and both veteran actors seemingly having a blast playing off of one another.

2 Days in the Valley isn’t a great interconnected ensemble drama but certainly watchable and at the very least you get to see Charlize Theron in a very early role in her career.
Columbo: The Complete Series might not be a homerun as a complete set with the lackluster selection of bonus features, but the transfer is fantastic to go along with the solid audio track, not to mention the show itself which is incredibly entertaining.
Alf: The Complete Series: Deluxe Edition brings together all the available materials from this wonderful sitcom, including ALF: The Animated Series and ALF Tales, not to mention the then long-awaited true series finale with Project: ALF.
The Questor Tapes is a failed TV pilot from Star Trek creator Gene Roddenberry and this TV movie stars Robert Foxworth, Mike Farrell and John Vernon. This Blu-ray includes a new transfer and an audio commentary.
The Man in the Iron Mask is a well made adventure film featuring solid performances, namely Gabriel Byrne and Jeremy Irons and fairly impressive for being screenwriter Randall Wallace’s directorial debut, following up with his Academy Award winning screenplay for Braveheart.
Exorcist: Believer is the latest horror movie to try and re-invent itself and comes from the same minds behind the Halloween reboot-trilogy. The movie arrives on 4K Ultra HD and Blu-ray from Universal on December 19th.

Clue is one of those comedies that have stood the test of time. The actors are so funny and perfectly cast for their respective roles and despite being based on a board game, and as inane/forced as the plot is, it’s reasonably mysterious to go along with the comedy.
Love Actually is just an all around fun, charming and heartwarming romantic-comedy-drama that features an amazing ensemble cast and even though I’ve seen this numerous times, it still doesn’t fail to make me smile.
Silver Bullet is by no means a good movie or even all that entertaining, though the acting from Busey and Haim were good and the effects work was fairly impressive considering the time period. I suppose if you’re a super-fan of Stephen King’s works this might hit the right spot.
