Once again, however, catalog titles are far more interesting than the day-and-date releases. New Releases (Blu-ray) A Madea Family Funeral – So long as his fans...

Though I have no doubt it will be an excellent disc in all technical respects, I’m left torn about whether to buy it now or wait for the inevitable Criterion edition. New Releases (Blu-ray) ‘Isle...

Unfortunately, a lot of movies last year didn’t live up to their promise or hype. What movies were the biggest letdowns for you? 2016 was widely regarded as a year of disappointments. I’m sure that I haven’t cataloged them all in these poll choices. I also...

Some of the year’s seemingly surefire franchise hits wound up disappointing at the box office. Two such casualties make their way to Blu-ray this week. New Releases ‘Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows‘ – One of the biggest complaints that ‘TMNT’ fans had about...

Although next weekend will bring both the ‘Ben-Hur’ remake and the...

Meanwhile, the magical heist sequel didn’t hold up as well, but the videogame movie performed better than expected – especially when you look at its international box office. Even though the new ‘TMNT’...

The big-budget sequel underwhelmed, the romance picture outpaced expectations, and nobody bothered to see the well-reviewed comedy. The one prediction that was fulfilled was the first place debut for ‘Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows‘. However, while the 2014 ‘Turtles‘ picture...
