Funny People (Blu-ray Review)

November 20, 2009

This is one of the most extensive Blu-ray Discs ever created, and in the hands of a Judd Apatow fan there’s more than enough here for a self-contained afternoon of comedy. (Street Date 11/24/09)


G.I. Joe The Rise of Cobra


G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra (Blu-ray Review)

November 19, 2009

Director Stephen Sommers’ film is as much an homage to James Bond as it is an adaptation of the Hasbro toy line.


Gone With the Wind


Gone With the Wind: 70th Anniversary Ultimate Collector’s Edition (Blu-ray Review)

November 12, 2009

Just as 'Gone With the Wind' is both a timeless classic and an artifact of its time, the 70th anniversary set is both an exhilarating presentation of the film and an important chronicle of its place in the evolution of filmmaking. (Street Date 11/17/09)


Clerks


Clerks (Blu-ray Review)

November 09, 2009

Kevin Smith’s 1994 debut film 'Clerks' isn’t exactly a bastion of picture quality. The film has gained a following not for its visual style, but for its dialogue and characters. With its grainy, black-and-white image, 'Clerks' seems like a less-than-ideal candidate for a Blu-ray transfer. The end result is perhaps the best that could be expected. (Street Date 11/17/09)


chasing amy


Chasing Amy (Blu-ray Review)

November 09, 2009

While 'Clerks' isn’t the type of movie to take advantage of the Blu-ray format, 'Chasing Amy,' on the other hand, looks pretty damn good in HD. (Street Date 11/17/09)



Wizard of Oz, The: 70th Anniversary Ultimate Collector’s Edition (Blu-ray Review)

October 28, 2009

What for many has been a blurry watercolor viewed on VHS or TV reaches its full technicolor glory on Blu-ray.


BSG Plan


Battlestar Galactica: The Plan (Blu-ray Review)

October 21, 2009

Expertly written by Jane Espenson, 'The Plan' ultimately serves its purpose as a satisfying swan song to the “Galactica” saga. (Street Date 10/27/09)



Tinker Bell and the Lost Treasure (Blu-ray Review)

October 19, 2009

'Tinker Bell and the Lost Treasure' is another quality addition to a franchise that is sure to pay dividends for Disney for many years to come. (Street Date 10/27/09)


Braveheart


Braveheart: Sapphire Series (Blu-ray Review)

October 07, 2009

Mel Gibson’s epic of the life of Scottish hero William Wallace has scarcely looked this good outside of a theater. A beautiful 1080p transfer brings the 1995 best picture Oscar winner to life in high-definition.


CSI 9


CSI: The Ninth Season (Blu-ray Review)

October 01, 2009

Despite the revolving door of characters, season nine holds up well against previous seasons, with some excellent stories.
