Warner Bros has given Ben Affleck’s excellent sports film “Air” a physical release. “Air” is one of our favorite films of this year with a strong script and great acting.
“Evil Dead Rise” puts a new spin on Necronomicon and Deadite based scares in a new environment. It’s a rollercoaster ride. Alyssa Sutherland delivers a star making performance in the film. Warner has given the film a 4K UHD release.
Martin McDonagh’s melancholy comedy-drama “The Banshees of Inisherin” focuses on a friendship dissolving, artistry, and depression. The performances are incredible.
“Top Gun: Maverick” gave theatrical audiences a reason to take a breath and eat some popcorn. It is a satisfying sequel and a loving tribute to Tony Scott. “Maverick” is our favorite film from 2022.
“Bullet Train” is an over-the-top R-rated action comedy starring Brad Pitt. Directed by David Leitch, the film is a great escape from the humdrum releases of 2022.
Oliver Stone has worked with writer James DiEugenio, the author of “Destiny Betrayed,” to create a spellbinding tour de force documentary about who and why JFK was assassinated. Shout! Factory has given the documentary a proper release that earns our highest recommendation.
Liam Neeson is a good actor, but “Blacklight” is sadly a misfire for all those involved (including Aidan Quinn.) Universal Pictures have given the film a competent Blu-ray release.
Pedro Almodovar’s latest film “Parallel Mothers” is an emotionally rich and poignant film with a mesmerizing performance by Penelope Cruz. Fans of Spanish Cinema will find a lot to enjoy.
“Resident Evil: Welcome to Raccoon City” is a faithful film adaptation of the story from the first two games in the iconic survival horror series. Fans of the games will enjoy seeing R.P.D. and the Wesley House recreated.
