New From Paramount Home Entertainment: CHICAGO

CHICAGO It’s hard to believe that the movie musical adaptation of Chicago wowed audiences 20 years ago already. The Kander and Ebb musical received the big screen treatment from Rob Marshall who brought the razzle dazzle to life. Paramount Home Entertainment is celebrating its 20th anniversary with a new SteelBook Blu-Ray edition with a digital copy included. Marshall has a top-notch cast on his hands with Catherine Zeta-Jones and Renee Zellweger as our murderous mistresses, Velma Kelly and Roxie Hart, respectively. Joining them are Richard Gere (Billy Flynn), Queen Latifah (Mama Morton), John C. Reilly (Amos Hart), and Taye Diggs (Bandleader). Chita Rivera, Broadway’s originalRead More →

New on 4K, Blu-Ray, Digital: PULP FICTION

PULP FICTION Paramount Home Entertainment is proud to present Quentin Tarantino’s instant masterpiece Pulp Fiction for the first time in 4K. The new release is two discs with the 4K, Blu-Ray, and a digital copy of the film. Tarantino’s second film rocked audiences back in 1994 and has continued to gain a new following in the years since. There was no other film like it with its singular voice and dialogue, explosive characters, and its interweaving narratives told out of chronological order. Roger Ebert named it his #2 film of the 1990s. The film was nominated for seven Academy Awards including Best Picture and wonRead More →

Now on 4K, Blu-Ray, DVD, & Digital – TOP GUN: MAVERICK

Now on 4K, Blu-Ray, DVD, & Digital – TOP GUN: MAVERICK I’m not kidding when I say that Top Gun: Maverick is still one of my favorite movies of the year. It’s one of those cinematic experiences that is still engrained in me. Director Joseph Kosinski and star Tom Cruise pulled out all the stops in making their sequel one for the ages. A high-flying spectacle void of blatant CGI and cheesy effects, as they relied on practical effects and stunt work to make the audience feel like they were right in cockpit with Maverick, Rooster, Hangman, and the rest of the characters. This wasRead More →

New on 4K UltraHD: POLTERGEIST, THE LOST BOYS

New on 4K UltraHD: POLTERGEIST, THE LOST BOYS Warner Bros. Home Entertainment has two ’80s classics now on 4K Ultra HD just in time for spooky season! Both of these films spawned several sequels and remakes, but there’s nothing like the original. THE LOST BOYS (1987) Long before Joel Schumacher cranked out some John Grisham adaptations and gave the Batsuit nipples, he directed a campy teen vampire flick with The Lost Boys. I watched this for the first time a few years ago, and boy, it was a fun one. Not only does it feature The Coreys (Haim and Feldman), but also Jason Patric, KieferRead More →

Movie Review: ELVIS

ELVIS Director: Baz LuhrmannStarring: Austin Butler, Tom Hanks, Olivia DeJonge, Kelvin Harrison Jr, Helen Thomson, Richard Roxburgh, Kodi Smit-McPhee It takes an extravagant vision to capture the life and magic of Elvis Presley on screen. Director Baz Luhrmann embeds his flashy aura into Elvis Presley’s life to an eye-popping degree with Elvis. If you’ve seen Romeo + Juliet or Moulin Rouge, there’s no mistaking Luhrmann’s distinct vision within minutes of Elvis. The opening sequence practically mirrors that of Romeo+Juliet with a frenzied narration and Tom Hanks’ Colonel Tom Parker on his death bed recounting how he made Elvis famous and that there would be noRead More →
