Public Enemies

I love gangsters. I love Depp. I love Bale. Yet, while this was a pretty good film, all things considered, we were expecting a great picture. Plus, I’m hating Michael Mann’s use of digital film making like he done in Collateral and Miami Vice. The sound design was horrible. (Formats: Blu-ray/DVD) Jon says: Rent   Donny says: Rent

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince

Potter fans rejoice! Here’s your big day! Looks good, but I’ve never been a fan of the series. (Formats: Blu-ray/DVD) Jon says: Rent   Donny says: Rent

The Cove

The highly-praised documentary will stir strong emotions and tears from everyone who have seen it. (Formats: DVD only) Jon says: Buy   Donny says: Buy

World’s Greatest Dad

Okay, Bobcat is one crazy film maker. Case in point: this film. Dark humor doesn’t give it justice, but whatever you call it, it is one of the year’s funniest films. (Formats: Blu-ray/DVD) Jon says: Rent   Donny says: Rent

Julie and Julia

I guess pairing up the uber-cute Amy Adams with film’s best actresses in Meryl Streep, did little to arouse much interest, but reviews were good. (Formats: Blu-ray/DVD) Jon says: Rent   Donny says: Rent

AK 100: 25 Films of Akira Kurosawa: Criterion Collection

If you’re a huge fan of his, you’ll probably own most of his work on Criterion’s DVDs, but here’s one mega-set containing everything Criterion owns the rights too. (Formats: DVD only) Jon says: Buy    Donny says: Buy

New to Blu

Behind the Mask: Rise of Leslie Vernon
