Blazing Saddles 4KUHD Review
My father introduced me to this film at a young age. It’s not appropriate at a young age. On so many levels it is not appropriate. As an adult? It has some very strong themes and points, and it is appropriate. While there is no doubt that Blazing Saddles from Warner Home Video probably couldn’t be made nowadays, its brilliance shines through the script which has so many different and relevant them...[Read More]
The Terminator 4KUHD Review
Back when I was just turning 10 years old, I was having nightmares about being chased by an unstoppable robot that was trying to ensure the end of the world was going to happen with a gigantic bang. Man, the Reagan years were something. I’m sure those dreams will be making a comeback in the next four years. Anyway! Warner Home Video has honored that robot-chasing-humans idea by releasing The Termi...[Read More]
North by Northwest 4KUHD Review
Hitchcock was the master of suspense, thriller, and horror back in the day. He used common themes to create cinematic masterpieces that redefined how movies were made. He also inserted himself in every single one of his films, which was a cool signature. Anyway, one of Hitchcock’s best films about a case of mistaken identity was North by Northwest, and Warner Home Video has decided to honor it wit...[Read More]

Have we come to that point in the movie business industry where going back to an 80s/90s action film structure is in style now? If you’re not familiar with that structure it consists of a few things: Unstoppable and incorruptible hero immune to deadly bullets A damsel in distress that falls for the hero An evil villain that is incredibly too strong for logic to explain A henchman that is a mini-bo...[Read More]

Adventure Time: Distant Lands Review
My kids warned me about this HBO Max release. They had stated on several occasions that it tugs at the heartstrings a bit but also ties up some loose ends. It certainly does both. Sometimes it is hard to say goodbye to characters we have grown up with in life and sometimes one last dance with them helps to ease the pain of loss. You know what they say, “It is better to have loved and lost than nev...[Read More]
Cry Macho Review
Clint Eastwood is usually great about creating defined journeys that are grounded and full of hard choices. He did such a thing with Unforgiven and hit more of a realistic ground with Gran Torino. Since those, Eastwood has had a difficult time getting back to grounded human roots. His characters have forced flaws to them and undefined personalities. You can see the groundwork he wants to lay down ...[Read More]
Smallville: The Complete Series Review
Has it really been 20 years? Good gravy. Back when Smallville began, I was unmarried, ambitiously preparing for a move to California (never made it), and enjoying the hell out of the idea that superheroes were going to make it to the small screen. Imagine the possibilities. Anyway, 20 years later, one marriage, five kids, and here we are celebrating the series that started the superhero kick on th...[Read More]
