The Blind Side – DVD Review

Mar 23, 2010, 19:01 GMT

The Blind Side – DVD Review
Uplifting and inspirational, the Blind Side is only half a sports movie.  It’s more the tale of the kindness of strangers and the happy consequences of a rich couple taking in a hard luck abandoned child – albeit a very large child.  Sandra Bullock should’ve renamed him Oscar.   ... more

Alice (2009 Miniseries) - Blu-ray Review

Mar 2, 2010, 18:34 GMT

Alice (2009 Miniseries) - Blu-ray Review
The misspelled channel (SyFy) decided to drop down the rabbit hole.  I’m sure the upcoming Tim Burton spectacular didn’t hurt their decision to green light this series. This re-imagining is more akin to Tin Man than Lewis Carroll’s Victorian fantasyland.  ... more

The Waterboy - Blu-ray Review

Aug 10, 2009, 14:35 GMT

The Waterboy - Blu-ray Review
Adam Sandler was once the 100 million dollar man and the Waterboy was one of his comedies that made lots of money at the box office.  It probably isn’t as funny today as it was when it made all that money and the Blu-ray adds little to the package.  ... more

Revolutionary Road – DVD Review

Jun 15, 2009, 11:11 GMT

Revolutionary Road – DVD Review
“Abandon hope all ye who enter here,” is part of the inscription on the gate to Hell in Dante’s Divine Comedy.  This should be the tag line for Revolutionary Road.  Not that it isn’t well cast, acted to perfection and carefully filmed, it is all of these, but this movie is as depressing as the location of the above mentioned line from Dante. ... more

Revolutionary Road - Blu-ray Review

Jun 3, 2009, 13:59 GMT

Revolutionary Road - Blu-ray Review
The stars of Titanic reunite in film once again, though this movie is about as far away from their first outing as you can imagine.  Where Titanic featured a doomed ocean liner, Revolutionary Road paints a picture of domestic bliss gone wrong from the 1961 novel by Richard Yates.   ... more

Apr 14, 2009, 13:21 GMT

The Day the Earth Stood Still - DVD Review
For many people the original The Day the Earth Stood Still (1951) was their very first encounter with a science fiction film. I am pleased to say that the new “reimagining” of the film has an equally important message, and best of all it can safely be viewed by children.  ... more

The Day the Earth Stood Still (3-Disc Special Edition) – Blu-ray Review

Apr 14, 2009, 12:55 GMT

The Day the Earth Stood Still (3-Disc Special Edition) – Blu-ray Review
1951’s The Day the Earth Stood Still is true sci-fi classic. Sadly, this remake doesn’t even come close to that status. The movie is decent and manages a few thrills, but falls short of having the impact of the original. Instead, we get yet another save the Earth’s environment story and the stiff acting of Keanu Reeves. ... more

The Family That Preys – DVD Review
Starting with a wedding, this film takes a different look at the lives and loves of its characters.  Usually the wedding ends the film, but in The Family That Preys, the wedding of Andrea (Sanaa Lathan ) and Chris (Rockmond Dunbar) is just the beginning of a complicated blending of plots and characters. ... more
