Futurama: Into the Wild Green Yonder

Futurama returns to Blu-ray this week with the release of a new feature length film titled Futurama: Into The Wild Green Yonder. The new story includes all of your favorites from the original show in a new adventure. The Blu-ray release is packed with extra features too, although ultimately this is a release that most of us can get away with renting rather than purchasing. Let's take a closer loo...[Read More]

French Connection II

It's very difficult to capture the same magic out of a movie that happened in the first.  Outside of The Empire Strikes Back, Lethal Weapon II, and The Godfather part II, there aren't a lot of movies that can claim the second one was better. French Connection II almost made the list.

Sex Drive: Unrated (and Cream-filled)

One guy's dream to get laid. Have we seen this movie before?

Which reality do you live in?

The French Connection

Let's take a closer look at this title.

Igor

A mad experiment that nearly went right.  That's the perfect way to describe Igor. 

Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa

The first one was a good test.  It was a test to say, "Hey! We can do more than Shrek!" The second one was a step beyond the shout. It was literally a 'roar!'

A History of Violence

How to write about A History of Violence, the first terrific pairing of director David Cronenberg and actor Viggo Mortensen?  (Followed recently by the equally compelling Eastern Promises.)  If you’ve seen the film, then you know what happens, and you’ll just be curious about what the Blu-ray adds.  If you’ve not seen the film, then telling too much will spoil the story, or at least, change the ea...[Read More]

Amadeus: Director’s Cut

There are few films in my lifetime that have held such meaning, such reverence, such majesty as did Amadeus did when it first hit the theaters in 1984.  It was a simple story about creativity, love, revenge and regret.  Those four elements surrounded it and breathed life into the film.
