The Wizard may have its charms, which is probably why this has a strong cult following which led way to this Collector’s Edition Shout Factory release.

Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker 4K Ultra HD & Blu-ray Review
Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker isn’t a terrible movie as there are a few entertaining moment and the performance from Adam Driver, the only consistent of the cast throughout this new trilogy.

April Fool’s Day: Collector’s Edition Blu-ray Review
April Fool’s Day is a fun horror-comedy with a respectable ensemble. The kills aren’t bad and while some of the story elements stretched the plot a bit, I still found this to be an entertaining.

The Contractor/The Fan Blu-ray Review
The Contractor/The Fan double feature Blu-ray release isn’t anything remarkable as these aren’t high-quality movies to begin with, however both films do have their moments and Wesley Snipes at least never felt like he was phoning it in.
Fit to Kill Blu-ray Review
Fit to Kill is ever so slightly better than the previous entry, Hard Hunted, as the humor worked a tad more and there weren’t as many slow moments compared some of the other movies in this series.
Hard Hunted Blu-ray Review
Hard Hunted is pretty much in-line with the others in this series, especially the last couple, mostly that the cheesy and camp does not outweigh some of the duller moments that keeps it out of good-bad territory.
The Song of Names Blu-ray Quick Hit Review
The Song of Names is based upon the novel by Norman Lebrecht and stars Tim Roth, Clive Owen and Catherine McCormack arriving on Blu-ray and DVD on March 24th.

Knives Out 4K Ultra HD and Blu-ray Review
Knives Out isn’t quite a masterpiece but certainly has roots in a classical Agatha Christie mystery with some modern, topical twists which at times come across as preachy. Other than that, however, this is a wonderful mystery-comedy with a fantastic ensemble.

1917 4K Ultra HD & Blu-ray Review
1917 is a rare movie in these times and even rarer ones taking place during World War I. The performance from George MacKay is great but the biggest takeaway is the one-shot concept from director Sam Mendes which was pretty impressive.
The Ten Commandments Blu-ray Rundown
The Ten Commandments Blu-ray from Paramount now comes in Digibook form and has both the 1923 and 1956 feature films, and though they are the same discs, at a discounted price, and if not already owned, worth picking up.
The Sonata Blu-ray Review
The Sonata does have its moments and the performance from the young Freya Tingley was one of the highlights. However, the film does plod along somewhat and yet also at the same time, felt like there needed to be more.
Return of Ultraman Blu-ray Review
Return of Ultraman is another zany science fiction fantasy adventure series. There are some fun moments amongst the stilted dialogue and half-baked storytelling which, more often than not, culminate with Ultraman taking on the episode’s creature.
Hudson Hawk (Reto VHS Cover) Blu-ray Review
Hudson Hawk isn’t as bad of a movie as it’s been made to be, but certainly not great by any stretch as some of the humor, not to mention the overcomplicated story, doesn’t always work.

Bombshell Blu-ray Rundown
Bombshell, starring an all-star cast including Charlize Theron, Nicole Kidman, John Lithgow and Margot Robbie comes out on Blu-ray and DVD from Lionsgate this Tuesday, March 10th.
Titans: The Complete Second Season Blu-ray Review
Titans: The Complete Second Season is a solid step up from season one, though I am biased as a fan of Deathstroke who was the central villain, and the new Titans crew is a lot of fun, yes even the arrogant Jason Todd.
