A look at new and upcoming home entertainment releases, including movies, TV shows and other programs available on DVD, Blu-ray Disc and other formats.


Small Wonder Season 1


Small Wonder: The Complete First Season (DVD Review)

February 09, 2010

The 1985-89 show holds up a lot better than one would think, with its infectious charm that still generates genuine laughs. Other jokes are more groan-inducing, but it’s never offensive and rarely unwatchable. (Street Date 2/16/10)


Serious Man


Serious Man, A (DVD Review)

February 08, 2010

The closest thing to a flawless movie the Coen Brothers have made since 1996’s 'Fargo' — if not ever. (Street Date 2/9/10)



Alice Through the Looking Glass (DVD Review)

February 08, 2010

You can’t get too snarky over an oddity for the ages that casts Jimmy Durante as Humpty Dumpty. (Street Date 2/9/10)



Twelve Angry Men (DVD Review)

February 08, 2010

This solo DVD release is the marketing standout of a superb 2008 boxed set that anthologized “Westinghouse Studio One.” (Street Date 2/9/10)



Bad Girls of Film Noir Vol. 1 (DVD Review)

February 08, 2010

Echoing Sony’s “Martini Movies” line, the lineup shrewdly combines film history with a luridly commercial hook, and deep-sea diving into the archives is always to be encouraged. (Street Date 2/9/10)



Welcome to Nollywood (DVD Review)

February 08, 2010

Considering that the Nigerian film industry didn’t exist until 1990, it’s remarkable that it was the world’s third largest at the time this rather raucous documentary was made.



Time Traveler's Wife, The (Blu-ray Review)

February 07, 2010

The gimmicky plot distracts from the love story, which only exists to serve the plot. The movie thinks it’s being clever and it’s just being ridiculous. (Street Date 2/9/10)


Jake's Corner


Jake’s Corner (DVD Review)

February 07, 2010

'Jake’s Corner' takes on difficult issues and addresses them with sensitivity. (Prebook 2/9/10; Street Date 3/2/10)


peter and vandy


Peter and Vandy (DVD Review)

February 06, 2010

The small moments in Peter and Vandy are a revelation, such as the little jokes that aren’t funny to anyone else, or the pointless fights and breakups. If you find yourself cringing a bit during the film, it’s probably because you can relate all too well. (Street Date 2/9/10)



Dead Tone (DVD Review)

February 06, 2010

'Dead Tone' is gory enough and the girls hot enough to give most horror fans a few cheap thrills. (Street Date 2/9/10)
