Chronicles of Riddick – Blu-ray Review

Apr 2, 2009, 13:26 GMT

Chronicles of Riddick – Blu-ray Review
A super-expensive, quasi-sequel to 'Pitch Black', Vin Diesel reteamed with director David Twohy for a much more ambitious tale surrounding protag Riddick - a bloated, convoluted Dune-like mythology threw people off at first but it may be deserving of a second chance.  ... more

Quantum of Solace – Blu-ray Review

Quantum of Solace – Blu-ray Review
Daniel Craig’s Bond is back and twice as deadly in Quantum of Solace – a direct sequel to the franchise re-launch Casino Royale. While the film has some trouble, it is a great Bond adventure, packed with action, and leaves you counting the days until the next film in the franchise hits the big screen. ... more

Quantum of Solace (Two-Disc Special Edition) – DVD Review
James Bond returns in the first direct sequel made to a Bond film.  Quantum appears to have garnered some very negative reviews and after watching it I can only scratch my head and wonder why.  Sure, it’s not as good as Casino Royale, but it does do a good job of cementing Daniel Craig as the man who can wear Connery’s shoes.   ... more

Quantum of Solace - The Unseen Movie Review
The good thing about the new James Bond film, Quantum of Solace, is that this time around people won’t be saying what a bad choice Daniel Craig was even before having seen the movie.  That’s like saying John McCain would not make a good President before giving him a shot at it.  ... more

DVD Review: Cranford
The 1840’s English village of Cranford comes to life in this wonderful BBC series based on three of Elizabeth Gaskell’s works, Cranford, My Lady Ludlow, and Mr. Harrison’s Confessions.  The three novellas blend beautifully with story lines that reveal much about life and attitudes in a small town on the edge of industrialization.  ... more
