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.



Star Wreck: In the Pirkinning — Imperial Edition (DVD Review)

October 09, 2009

As a “Star Trek” parody, much of Star Wreck’s humor depends on cheesy wordplay or random sight gags, and it isn’t as guffaw-inspiring as one might hope. Seeing as how the film is Finnish, perhaps something is lost in the translation. On the other hand, Star Wreck is one of the most lovingly ambitious “Trek” tributes one is likely to see. (Prebook 10/13/09; Street Date 11/10/09)


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.


Proposal


Proposal, The (DVD Review)

October 06, 2009

Stereotypes are turned upside down in this romantic comedy. (Street Date 10/13/09)


Ally McBeal


Ally McBeal: The Complete Series (DVD Review)

October 05, 2009

This complete-series boxed set should be more then enough to please the show’s long-suffering fans. (Street Date 10/6/09)


Dinosaurs Alive


Dinosaurs Alive! (DVD Review)

October 04, 2009

The scope of the project is ambitious, and as a documentary the film is a success. Since it was filmed for Imax, 'Dinosaurs Alive!' plays best on bigger screens. (Street Date 10/6/09)


Hide and Creep


Hide and Creep (DVD Review)

October 03, 2009

Sure, 'Hide and Creep' is extremely low budget and is dragged down by substandard acting. But drab humor, good one-liners and bloody violence more than make up for any flaws. (Street Date 10/6/09)


My Life in Ruins


My Life in Ruins (DVD Review)

October 02, 2009

'My Life in Ruins' takes Nia Vardalos from her big fat Greek family to a group of big fat tourists in Greece, where she plays ex-pat tour guide Georgia. The result is a grandma-approved, by-the-numbers comedy. (Street Date 10/6/09)


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.


Superman Batman Public Enemies


Superman/Batman: Public Enemies (Blu-ray Review)

September 29, 2009

Comic book fans will love this movie. It’s like a 70-minute superhero battle royal. (Street Date 9/29/09)



In A Dream (DVD Review)

September 28, 2009

Beautifully shot film about the life and work of Philadelphia artist Isaiah Zagar. (Street Date 9/29/09)
