Paul Blart: Mall Cop Blu Ray Review

Posted on: August 11th, 2009 By: Kirk

Paul Blart: Mall Cop brings Kevin James to the silver screen in a leading role for the first time. Sure he shared the credits with Adam Sandler in I Now Pronounce You Chuck & Larry, but this is his first time out there on his own. Not satisfied with the leading male role, he’s also [...]

The International – Blu-Ray Review

Posted on: July 1st, 2009 By: sjp1966

This being BCCI (Bank of [...]

Terminator 3, Blu Ray Review

Posted on: May 26th, 2009 By: Kirk

Terminator 3 continues the story of John Connor and his battle against the time travelling machines and against his destiny. It’s also a bit of a divergence for the franchise in a couple of ways. Firstly the director, Jonathan Mostow has the unenviable task of stepping into James Cameron’s shoes. Secondly we have a female [...]

Kill Bill Volume 1: DVD Review

Posted on: March 20th, 2009 By: russgreeno

Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned. Boy oh boy has that never been truer. Uma Thurman kicks ass and takes names. If she says it’s Christmas you better start singing carols!
Quentin Tarantintos’ fourth film. I would also say it’s his most reserved and ostentatious work in equal measure. That snappy dialogue for which [...]

Eagle Eye, DVD Review

Posted on: March 16th, 2009 By: Kirk

Eagle Eye is the 2008 action/thriller directed by D.J. Caruso (sounds like he should be doing the club scene!) and written by Dam McDermott. The film opens with the military tracking a terrorists leader in the Middle East. Unable to get absolute confirmation that their intended target is actually present at the funeral they’re observing, [...]
