The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part is a perfectly fine film for the entire family but it certainly lacked not only the freshness of the first film but also the focus.

Fighting with My Family Blu-ray Review
Fighting with My Family is a surprisingly well done biographic drama featuring a transformative performance from Florence Pugh aided by a great supporting cast including Nick Frost and Lena Headey as Paige’s brash but loveable parents.
Backdraft 2 Blu-ray Review
Backdraft 2 isn’t great but at least I found it to be a serviceable enough of a direct-to-video sequel that I’m not sure many were exactly clamoring for, especially when you’ve got Chicago Fire that can quench the thirst for the fire-mystery subgenre.
Ghosts of Mars Blu-ray Review
With an incredibly stupid story, bad visual effects, and some terrible acting ever imagined possible, Ghost of Mars will go down in history as one of the worst Sci-Fi/Horror around. Kind of surprising this is came from the legendary John Carpenter.
The Kid Who Would Be King Blu-ray Review
The Kid Who Would Be King is a decent enough, family-oriented fantasy film that takes the old tales bringing it to a newer generation.
Serenity Blu-ray Review
Serenity is certainly an oddball of a movie and although certainly the terrible critical reception didn’t help, it’s no wonder why the studio probably had a hell of time on how to market this.
Alien: 40th Anniversary 4K Ultra HD Review
Alien is of course a sci-fi/horror classic and obviously a cash cow for the studio with numerous re-releases on various formats and now it has come to 4K UHD and it does look excellent and ported over an already great lossless track.

Dark River Blu-ray Review
Dark River is a very well acted British-drama with some beautiful cinematography showcasing the North Yorkshire countryside and features a great performance from Ruth Wilson.
The Suckling Blu-ray Review
Imagine a movie called The Suckling wasn’t very good, even in the age old so bad, it’s good. The acting is poor and story non-existent but I suppose for your indie horror purists, you might get something out of this.
Superstition Blu-ray Review
Admittedly these supernatural-horror movies aren’t generally my thing and Superstition is no different and despite some okay performances and the filmmakers doing the best they can with a thin script, this is not even close to be worthy of a rental.
Frankenstein 1970 Blu-ray Review
By no means am I an expert on the monster horror subgenre and have enjoyed a few of the classics like Frankenstein and The Mummy, Frankenstein 1970 had a fun and unique premise, the execution was rather bad.
On the Basis of Sex Blu-ray Review
The story in of itself isn’t always strong, but easily made up with some great performances from Felicity Jones and Armie Hammer, though if you want to know more about Ginsberg, the documentary RBG is the better way to go.
The Big C: The Complete Series Blu-ray Review
The Big C was a well done drama-comedy series featuring great performances from Laura Linney, John Benjamin Hickey and a respectable set of guest stars throughout the course of its four seasons.

Justice League vs. The Fatal Five 4K Ultra HD & Blu-ray Review
Justice League vs. The Fatal Five isn’t one of the better within DC’s animated movie line, however, it’s still a well told story and the animation looks really good being a continuation of the Justice League animated series line.

Replicas Blu-ray Review
Replicas had some poor visual effects which I could forgive if the concept wasn’t badly executed in almost every turn from the writing and direction, and some lackluster performances.
