Dirty Harry/Magnum Force (Action Double Feature) [Blu-ray] Review
Don’t listen to people about double dipping. This is a great deal. Dirty Harry alone on Blu-ray is about .00, and Magnum Force isn’t even available individually (it’s only available in the Dirty Harry Box Set). Magnum Force is the best sequel, and it’s great that you only [...]

Superman – The Movie (Four-Disc Special Edition) Review
There were super-hero movies before 1978’s Superman, and some of them were pretty ok. Heck, there were even a couple Superman films. None were great. There’s been many others since, some of which were pretty ok, some were great, and at least one (The Dark Knight), has completely [...]

The chariot race is still compelling (even in the claustrophobic pan-and-scan VHS version), and [...]
Heat (Two-Disc Special Edition) Review
The scene that precedes Neil & Vincent’s first meeting–the audacious tracking and interception of Neil’s vehicle on an L.A. freeway to the soundtrack of Moby’s ‘New Dawn Fades’–is utterly superfluous but pure cinematic art. This and other flourishes–like when Neil and Eady drive through the bright tunnel symbolizing a cleansing [...]
