THEATER, TV, DVD & BLU-RAY REVIEWS

  • Blu-Ray Review: Dull ‘Amelia’ Should Be Grounded
    Amelia

    CHICAGO – It seems downright sad that “Amelia,” a movie that was so widely predicted to be a part of the 2009 awards season, would be released on Blu-ray and DVD on the same day as the Oscar announcements. On paper, “Amelia” seemed like Oscar bait through and through with important subject matter headlined by one of the few women to have more than one Oscar. On Blu-ray, it’s easy to see why this cinematic plane crashed and burned.

  • Blu-Ray Review: ‘Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas,’ ‘Mystic River’
    Fear and Loathing BD

    CHICAGO – I know what you’re thinking: What do “Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas” and “Mystic River” have in common? Nothing at all other than a Blu-ray release date of February 2nd, 2010. Oh, and they’re two films you should probably own if you have a Blu-ray player.
