The Running Man is perfectly entertaining but didn’t quite swing for the fences and tried at times to be as bonkers as something like Mad Max: Fury Road but instead stepped back into your traditional Hollywood action-er.

Air Force One (Steelbook) 4K Ultra HD Review
Air Force One is a strange film, a kind of film from simpler times I guess but after 20 years, for the most part the film holds up well, mainly for the performances by Harrison Ford and Gary Oldman more so than the dated visual effects.

Mystery Men 4K Ultra HD & Blu-ray Review
Mystery Men had some potential but the execution and script made for a less than entertaining experience, although some of the jokes at least got a chuckle out of me, but after that I found it rather dull at times.

Jurassic Park: 25th Anniversary Collection 4K Ultra HD + BD Screen Caps
The “Limited Edition” release of the current roster of the Jurassic Park franchise (that is until June) is a well done package by Universal, though the 4K transfers weren’t exactly incredible upgrades over their Blu-ray counterparts, outside of maybe the audio.

Shameless: The Complete Seventh Season BD + Screen Caps
Shameless is the kind of show I can kind lose interest but find my way back every so often, mainly because William H. Macy is so damn good as the reckless loveable loser and the supporting cast all do quite well in their respective roles.

Review: The Lincoln Lawyer 4K + Screen Caps
The Lincoln Lawyer isn’t breaking any new ground in the legal thriller genre. The plot itself is less mystery and more character so those expecting some twist might be disappointed. That being said, as somebody who has never been enamored with Matthew McConaughey, here he’s near pitch perfect for the part.

Review: Blood Father BD + Screen Caps
Blood Father is a beautifully crafted drama about redemption and reconciliation featuring two great and emotional performances by Mel Gibson and Erin Moriarty in conjunction with an efficient story that doesn’t wear out its welcome with superfluous scenes.
Review: Trust Me DVD
Trust Me is not the perfect comedy-drama and probably could’ve used a couple rewrites but as a follow-up to his 2008 film, Choke, it’s not bad and he assembles (no pun intended) a fine set of actors and an at least engaging story. The DVD released by Anchor Bay sadly is basic with no features while the audio/video transfers are merely adequate.
The Client Blu-ray Review
The Client is a fulfilling suspense-thriller propelled by three solid performances, adequate direction from Joel Schumacher (arguably his last ‘good’ movie) despite a predictable script.
Cellular Blu-ray Review
Cellular is a high-octane thriller with great action and suspense throughout. Kim Basinger, Chris Evans and William H. Macy all turn in great performances with a story that could’ve easily gone wrong and became just another forgettable thriller.
