Disney’s Peter Pan: The Signature Collection
Just over three years ago, I settled in for the 1953, Disney classic Peter Pan. A film I hadn’t seen in a long time. Now, it’s time for another revisit, with the beautiful Signature Collection blu-ray transfer available from Disney today. And yes, while there is still that troubling What Makes the Red Man Red…
Annihilation (2018): Blu-Ray Review
Releasing from Paramount Pictures to blu-ray and DVD today is Annihilation a slow burn of a science fiction film from director Alex Garland.

Running at a taut hour and forty five minutes (Nolan’s shortest film since Following),…

Opening like a Shaw Brothers movie, The Lego Ninjago Movie is from some of the creative minds that were behind The Lego Movie, and The Lego Batman Movie. It hits blu-ray and DVD today from Warner Brothers, and may find a measure of success that it didn’t quite gain at the theatres. Dealing with a…
The Godfather Trilogy – Francis Ford Coppola
Paramount Pictures is celebrating the 45th anniversary with a re-release of the 1972 classic The Godfather, and its two sequels. I have a bit of a sordid history with these films.
