“Lionheart” finds Van Damme on the cusp of superstardom in one of his absolute best early films. It has been one of our favorite MVD releases since 2018, so the 4K was one of our most anticipated releases this year. It delivers!
You need to exercise your right as a consumer and pick up Arrow Video’s incredible 4K UHD of Joel Schumacher’s “Falling Down,”one of the most original films of the Nineties in a definitive edition.
“Cutter’s Way” is a truly brilliant sun-baked noir with wonderful performances by John Heard and Jeff Bridges. The Radiance Films 4K edition ranks as one of the best releases of the year.
“One Battle After Another” is a triumph that meets the precarious political climate of our times head on while delivering an exceptional action experience. Warner’s 4K delivers exceptional video and audio.
“Nightcrawler” is one of the great Los Angeles films. Featuring an amazing performance by Jake Gyllenhaal, and great turns by Rene Russo, Bill Paxton, and Riz Ahmed, Dan Gilroy’s 2014 thriller earns our highest recommendation. Shout! Factory’s new 4K release is a must-buy!
Despite a good cast, good director, and great cinematography, “9 1/2 Weeks” can not overcome the unlikability of a key character that drains the film of its emotional core.
Philip Roth considered Larry Peerce’s adaptation of “Goodbye, Columbus” to be the best adaptation of his work. Fun City Editions has done a great job of bringing it to Blu-ray.
“Eyes Wide Shut” is a misunderstood masterpiece from visionary director Stanley Kubrick. I believe that Criterion Collection’s 4K release will lead to true reappraisal of one of Kubrick’s greatest achievements.
