New York, New York (Blu-ray) Sunday, June 26, 2011 @ 10:56AMRecommended THE MOVIE: Just about every director has a movie in his or her canon that is considered some kind of cinematic blunder. For the maverick filmmakers of the 1970s, most of them stumbled into some kind of hubristic minefield following their decade-defining successes. Several of them did so while trying to make a Hollywood musical. Francis Ford Coppola's One from the Heart immediately ...

Gaumont Treasures Vol. 2: 1908-1916 Thursday, June 2, 2011 @ 8:25AMDVD Talk Collector Series A three-disc collection of more than ten hours of early French silent films, Gaumont Treasures, Vol. 2 - 1908-1916 is both fascinating and highly rewarding, in ways particular to movies a hundred years old. While I haven't yet watched absolutely everything, I didn't notice any lost silent masterpieces, at least not in the way later films like Intolerance , Greed , The ...
The Cocoanuts Thursday, June 2, 2011 @ 8:25AMRecommended THE MOVIE: Last week I was telling the gal who cuts my hair about the movies I had waiting for review at home, and when I said I had a bunch of Marx Brothers movies coming my way, she asked, "Who are they?" After I restarted my withering heart, which is no longer capable of these kinds of shocks at such an advanced age, I explained that they were a comedy team from the early days of ...

Big Mommas: Like Father Like Son Wednesday, June 1, 2011 @ 11:09AMSkip It THE FILM When "Big Momma's House" was released in 2000, I can't imagine there was any honest expectation of a sequel. An undemanding drag comedy merging action and antics from star Martin Lawrence, the original picture fulfilled whatever need there was to see the comedian rock an enormous fat suit and channel the child-rearing sass of his grandmother. Well, there actually was a sequel in ...
The Usual Suspects - Limited Edition Digibook (Blu-ray) Tuesday, May 24, 2011 @ 5:26PMSkip It I hate to admit it, but I generally put as much effort into reviewing any given disc as the studio did putting it together. Hours of supplements and a great transfer? I'm good for 2,000 words and a handful of carefully-selected screen captures. Slap an existing bare-bones disc in a fancy case to trick unsuspecting fans waiting for an upgrade? 950 words and no pretty pictures. So while ...
This Week’s Rent: A French nail-biter, Russian space cadet and Peruvian romance Tuesday, May 24, 2011 @ 11:21AMReleased May 17: “ Diabolique .” This is not the cheesy 1996 remake with Sharon Stone, but the 1955 original, a black-and-white French horror film directed by Henri-Georges Clouzot (“The Wages of Fear,” “The Mystery of Picasso”), which is being re-released by the Criterion Collection on DVD along with a new Blu-ray edition.
9 Things Parents (and Everyone Else) Should Know About Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides Friday, May 20, 2011 @ 7:15AMYou’re probably aware that the fourth Pirates of the Caribbean movie hits theaters today. What you may not know is that its subtitle, “On Stranger Tides,” comes from a 1987 historical fantasy novel which bears only a slight resemblance to the movie, and which Disney bought the rights to a few years ago. As a [...]
Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides (in Disney Digital 3D) Thursday, May 19, 2011 @ 5:30PMRent It People can think whatever they want about the commercialization of Hollywood, but sometimes, at least it's a goal. Although a director like Michael Bay is far from a "great" filmmaker in the sense that his films are not artistically inclined, there's still a technique and skill set that goes into making something look glossy and eye-popping, and Bay in particular brings a self ...
TCM Greatest Classic Films Collection: Tarzan, Volume One Starring Johnny Weissmuller Tuesday, May 17, 2011 @ 7:24AMRent It Despite a few attempts in the '80s and '90s to revive the series, the character of Tarzan is not particularly well-represented in the 21st century. People with faintly-formed ideas of the character might resist the idea of a four-pack of 1930s Tarzan films, but the good entries contained in this package still feel surprisingly contemporary, more than seventy years after they were made ...
Much Ado About Nothing (Blu-ray) Thursday, May 12, 2011 @ 8:41AMHighly Recommended Sigh no more, ladies, sigh nor more; Men were deceivers ever; One foot in sea and one on shore, To one thing constant never; Then sigh not so, But let them go, And be you blithe and bonny; Converting all your sounds of woe Into hey nonny, nonny, nonny. In two shrewdly commercial moves, director-actor Kenneth Branagh chose as his follow-up to the critically acclaimed Henry V ...

The Terror (Blu-ray) Friday, May 6, 2011 @ 6:56AMRecommended Reviewed by Glenn Erickson 1963's The Terror is a bottomless pit of great stories about Roger Corman and his entourage of wanna-be directors and actors. Corman was determined to make his own Edgar Allan Poe-type attraction separate from the series of hits he was directing in partnership with Arkoff and Nicholson at American-International. He attempted to make an earlier film for a ...

The LXD: Seasons One and Two Wednesday, April 27, 2011 @ 6:54AMRent It THE SHOW: The Legion of Extraordinary Dancers (LXD) is a fine showcase for a number of very talented performers. Unfortunately, it is also a narrative mess desperately in need of a cohesive approach and singular vision. The core concept of The LXD is absolutely fascinating and is what drew me to the series in the first place. The idea of incorporating dance sequences into films is ...

Babe (Blu-ray) Wednesday, April 13, 2011 @ 7:26AMHighly Recommended A real sleeper that surprised audiences with its wry wit and gentle charm, Babe (1995) is a genuinely sweet film, and its success - including an Academy Award nomination as Best Picture - begat dozens of imitators, none nearly as good.* Adapted from Englishman Dick King-Smith's 1983 novel The Sheep-Pig (rechristened Babe: The Gallant Pig in the U.S.), Babe is very much like a ...
Short Circuit 2 (Blu-ray) Thursday, April 7, 2011 @ 11:41PMSkip It ...and then Steve Guttenberg, Ally Sheedy, and their robot buddy Number Five moved to a sleepy little cabin in Montana, and they all lived happily ever after! Oh. Wait. Ben Jabituya -- y'know, Fisher Stevens in black brownface -- didn't score that same flavor of fairy tale ending. At least if you consider a shack in Montana to qualify as a fairy tale, which I obviously do. Anyway, that ...
The Brontës - Cinemagoers have had their fill of this sister act Thursday, April 7, 2011 @ 6:20PMYou could be forgiven for thinking that the centre of the British film industry isn't Pinewood or Soho but a small parsonage on the Yorkshire moors. Later this year, we will be treated to not one but two new films based on novels by those eccentric Brontë sisters who used to live in Haworth, West Yorkshire. It will be a full-blown battle of the Brontës at the box office. Cary Fukunaga's Jane ...

Hemingway's Garden of Eden Saturday, March 12, 2011 @ 3:09PMSkip It THE FILM Sex has never felt more repellent after watching "Hemingway's Garden of Eden," a clumsy effort of eroticism and psychological gamesmanship that's utterly devoid of structure and feeling. It's an awful picture, but I'll admit the campy overtones encouraged by director John Irvin make it an unintentionally hilarious sit, offering the viewer something to delight in while the ...
127 Hours (Blu-ray) Wednesday, March 9, 2011 @ 10:26AMHighly Recommended Part of the allure of Utah's Blue John Canyon is that it's so pure and unspoiled...so sprawling and isolated that days can pass without stumbling upon much of anyone.

Why Alex Cox Returned to "Straight to Hell" Friday, March 4, 2011 @ 3:01PMBack in 1987, director Alex Cox followed up cult classic "Repo Man" (1984) and the rebellious biopic "Sid and Nancy" (1986) with "Straight To Hell," a film he co-wrote with Dick Rude in just three days. His gore-filled take on the spaghetti Western features blood, sex and over-the-top performances by musicians such as Joe Strummer, Courtney Love, Elvis Costello and the Pogues. It received less ...

Jackass 3: Unrated (Blu-ray) Wednesday, March 2, 2011 @ 8:12PMHighly Recommended THE MOVIE: Hi, my name is Jamie Rich, and these are "Some Observations Upon Watching Jackass 3: Unrated on Blu-Ray:" * It's not a Jackass movie unless you physically retch while watching it in numbers at least equal to the sequel designation. I think I hit four near-vomits this time around, so mission accomplished. * The Jackass 3 Blu-Ray has a wicked loud 5.1 audio mix, and I ...

Daughters of Darkness (Blu-ray) Saturday, February 26, 2011 @ 7:11AMHighly Recommended Nineteen seventy-one was a busy year for horror cinema. According to the Phil Hardy-edited Encyclopedia of Horror Movies more than five-dozen new horror movies were in release that year. One in five were vampire stories, most of those taking advantage of newfound permissiveness brought by changes to the BBFC in Britain and the recently established MPAA in America. Competing in ...

Kansas City Confidential (Blu-ray + DVD Combo Pack) (Blu-ray) Friday, February 25, 2011 @ 6:41AMHighly Recommended It was only a matter of time until bottom-feeder labels specializing in public domain releases - that is, movies with lapsed copyrights or never properly protected in the first place - tapped into the burgeoning Blu-ray market. Movie fans looking for bargains or titles unavailable anywhere else were pretty forgiving in the days of VHS, but as laserdisc gave way to DVD and ...
