DVD Review: Complete Series of MTV’s ‘The State’ Worth the Wait

The State

CHICAGO – It’s a vastly overused phrase in criticism, but MTV’s “The State” truly was ahead of its time.

After years of begging, fans of “The State” are finally being given a complete series set and it was worth the wait.

Blu-Ray Review: ‘Role Models’ With Paul Rudd Good Movie, Great Blu-Ray

Role Models
HollywoodChicago.com Blu-Ray Rating: 4.0/5.0
Blu-Ray Rating: 4.0/5.0

CHICAGODavid Wain’s “Role Models” is far from a perfect comedy, but the Universal Blu-Ray release of it is one of the best of the year so far. The release of “Role Models” includes a great video transfer, entertaining series of special features, and a comedy that holds up pretty well on repeat viewing. What more do you want?
