Bolt


Bolt (Blu-ray Review)

April 16, 2009

'Bolt' is basically 'Toy Story' with a dog, with the emphasis on the bond between people and their pets.


Pride and Prejudice


Pride and Prejudice (Blu-ray Review)

April 09, 2009

It doesn’t take a Jane Austen scholar to appreciate the excellence of the 1995 BBC version of 'Pride and Prejudice.' This new Blu-ray edition offers not only a great opportunity to introduce the show to those who haven’t seen it, but also makes a great gift for wives and mothers to whom it is a beloved treasure.

The Reader


Reader, The (Blu-ray Review)

April 06, 2009

'The Reader' is more successful as an acting exercise than it is at capturing the themes of the novel upon which it is based. (Street Date 4/14/09, Blu-ray Street 4/28/09)


South Park 12


South Park: The Complete Twelfth Season (Blu-ray Review)

April 01, 2009

Comedy Central’s first choice for a Blu-ray Disc release was a wise one: the 12th season of “South Park.” With 1080i widescreen treatment, the animated adventures of the boys from South Park Elementary School have never looked better.

Wonder Woman

'Wonder Woman' does a decent job modernizing the story while maintaining most of the classic elements with which fans of the superheroine are familiar, especially its connection to Greek myths.


Stagnetti's Revenge


Pirates II: Stagnetti’s Revenge (‘R’-Rated Version)
