THE GATEKEEPERS - Blu-ray review
As you listen to these six former chiefs of one of the world’s most secretive organizations, it’s hard not to have your jaw drop in awe, or surprise at their sudden candor.

AT LONG LAST LOVE - Blu-ray review
It’s not just the acting. There’s no chemistry, and very few Cole Porter songs are performed in such a way that you’d guess would make the old lyricist happy. “You’re the Top”? Not with this group doing the singing.

MARKETA LAZAROVA - Blu-ray review
(Marketa) was voted the best Czech film of all-time in a poll of Czech and Slovak critics and filmmakers. It's easy to see why.

THE INCREDIBLE BURT WONDERSTONE - Blu-ray review
Far from a great film, but still a pleasant experience, “The Incredible Burt Wonderstone” is a good way to be entertained for a little while, and it doesn’t require a significant emotional investment.

NO - DVD review
Accurate or not, hokey or not, the ad campaigns are the most interesting parts of the film—especially since side plots involving Saavedra’s family life are underdeveloped. For all its flaws, "No" succeeds because the marketers sell the audience, too.

COMBAT!: SEASON 3 - DVD review
“Combat!” is a terrific dramatic series, one which seems realistic enough, but is more devoted to depicting personal dramas than statements about conflict. War is just the incidental arena within which those dramas play themselves out. This season is arguably the show's best.

MR. SARDONICUS/ BROTHERHOOD OF SATAN - Blu-ray review
“Mr. Sardonicus” has a moment or two but it is ultimately a fairly skip-able movie...I found the nice genre specific moments in “Brotherhood of Satan” to be overall more engaging.

SAFETY LAST! - Blu-ray review
We'll never see anything like it again, but that's OK because ninety years of evidence has proven that nobody's ever going to do it better.
