Tarzan Goes to India is a nice installment in the numerous entries featuring the titular character, with some great action-adventure sequences.

Mary Queen of Scots is certainly a rich movie in terms of the technical aspects including costumes, hair/makeup and set designs, and while both Ronan and Robbie’s performances were great, the story in of itself lacked much of an emotional punch.

Overlord is one hell of a thrill ride that combined World War II drama (with respect if not historic flexibility) and zombie horror and the combination was a lot of fun thanks to creative direction and a charismatic ensemble cast.

The Cloverfield Paradox had an interesting idea at its core, likely whatever remained of the original script God Particle, but the execution, and forcing it to be part of the Cloverfield franchise, just was not well thought out.

Backtrace wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be, but it is your run-of-the-mill poorly made direct-to-video flick that will eventually be <$10 level in no time, though you might be missing out on the sweet title-embossed slip cover…

, The Front Runner from a technical and acting standpoint is a perfectly fine movie. But the issue comes from the fact it’s not all that important, or at least as important as the filmmakers want it to be, with the ideas presented.

Horror Express for me was a fine film though my interest was mostly for its two leads in Christopher Lee and Peter Cushing, sharing the screen again after many roles as Dracula and Van Helsing respectively.

Double Dragon is a bad yet still cheesy movie that screams 1990s with its style and direction, not to mention some over-the-top performances. I didn’t exactly hate this movie but it was hard to sit through at times.

Nobody’s Fool is yet another reminder of why Tyler Perry isn’t exactly a good filmmaker. Personally, outside of his Madea personality/schtick, he actually isn’t a half bad actor. This film in particular has some poorly written characters, even unlikeable ones, and has a few plots stuffed into one.

Widows is a well done and ultimately effective thriller from Steve McQueen that features some top-notch acting and an engaging story.

The Poison Ivy series is no doubt bad and unfortunately not really the good kind of bad outside of a few laughable lines and how some of the sex scenes were “tastefully” shot. On the plus side, for the most part the acting isn’t bad.

This “Horror Double Feature” is another re-packaging of Hostel and Hostel Part II and given the <$10 price point and if you don’t already own the other release, or the individual ones, this is an okay pick-up, just know this does not include any bonus features.

Four Weddings and a Funeral, even with some of its flaws, most notably the casting of Andie McDowell whom I normally love, is still a wonderful, feel-good, film led way by Hugh Grant’s charm and some heartfelt scenes.

The Nutcracker and the Four Realms is hardly terrible and I’d happily watch this over either of Disney’s Alice in Wonderland live-action films, but considering I hated both of those, that’s faint praise.

Valentine for me, like Urban Legend, isn’t a slasher-horror classic but I will admit there are at least few fun elements and I suspect if you were to watch this in a group setting, the experience might be a better one. However, this “Collector’s Edition” is a near home run from Shout Factory.
