Sweeney Todd was one of my favorite films from last year, and I’m not usually a fan of musicals or Tim Burton, so that’s saying a lot. It’s nice to see that it’s going to be getting a decent release on DVD. The following features will be available on the 2-disc release...

I guess it makes sense, but I just thought we wouldn’t see repeat releases of TV shows. I was clearly wrong, and stupid to think we wouldn’t because season one of 24 is getting the ‘special edition’ treatment. It also make sense considering there won't be a...

I think The Transporter series could have been so much more. Actually, let me restate that, The Transporter series should have been so much more. I was expecting a lot from Luc Besson, who wrote and produced the first flick, but it was...

February 22nd, 2008| Score: 5.5/10
Vantage Point, the new movie from first-time screenwriter Barry Levy is a perfect example of style over substance. Its premise isn’t new by any stretch, that of telling a single story through the eyes of multiple characters, and it’s been proven to work for some films...

February 22nd, 2008| Score: 7/10
It’s pretty clear that Michel Gondry is one of the most creative directors working in film today. He has a vision like no one else, and his pure enthusiasm when it comes to creating interesting stories and the visuals that accompany them is astounding. It’s for those reasons...

Paul Thomas Anderson’s latest, There Will be Blood, probably won’t be taking home the best picture Oscar this year, but it’s at least getting a decent DVD release. The epic film starring Daniel Day Lewis and Paul Dano is set to arrive on April 8th with the following features...
