The Gateway Blu-ray Review
The Gateway is only worth checking out if only for some solid performances, however the story is relatively thin and clocking in around 87 minutes doesn’t allow these characters to be developed.
Silent Running Blu-ray Review

Masked and Anonymous: Shout Select Blu-ray Review
Masked and Anonymous is a movie I never had heard of before despite featuring a noteworthy cast, most of whom appeared for the opportunity to work with veteran musician Bob Dylan. For fans of Dylan, this might be a treat.

Once Upon a Time… in Hollywood Blu-ray Review
Once Upon a Time… in Hollywood may not be Tarantino’s strongest film though I did enjoy this experience more than The Hateful Eight thanks to his attention to detail for the era along with some fun performances by both DiCaprio and Pitt.

Nebraska Blu-ray Review
Nebraska is a slow developing yet poignant drama-comedy about aging, familial relationships and looking at the past.
