Shock Wave

Highly Recommended The Movie: The Hong Kong bomb squad flick Shock Wave is a nearly nonstop barrage of setpieces. Car chases, wild shootouts, and, of course, explosions abound. Sometimes these elements appear in separate scenes, but often they arrive clumped together. Writer-director Herman Yau, whose career runs the gamut from the grossout horror of Ebola Syndrome to the mainstream martial arts of The Legend Is Born: Ip Man, is clearly a restless soul. This restlessness benefits this film greatly, as Yau is constantly adding new wrinkles to his narrative that make what might...Read the entire review From http://www.dvdtalk.com/reviews/read.php?ID=72803

Thank You for Playing

Recommended Ryan and Amy Green, sweethearts since they were in their teens, are now married and have a big family. Their third son, Joel, however, has been diagnosed with a terminal brain cancer. Ryan, a video game designer, begins pouring his energy into developing a video game, called That Dragon, Cancer, which serves as a heightened, stylized, but deeply autobiographical account of the entire family's journey dealing with Joel's illness. Along the way, directors David Osit and Malika Zouhali-Warrall chronicle the ups and downs of the experience, as yet a further document of Joel's tragically brief life. Thank You For…

The Outlaw

Recommended The Movie:The second and final film to be directed by quirky business tycoon Howard Hughes, 1943's The Outlaw tells the story of notorious outlaw duo Billy the Kid (Jack Buetel in his first feature film appearance) and Doc Holliday (Walter Huston). When the film opens they meet and become fast friends, only for Billy to wind up shot and just barely escape capture from the law men out to put him away behind bars. Shortly after this occurs, it's decided that the two of them will law low at Doc's ranch for a little while. Here Billy, quite understandably,…

9/11

Rent It 9/11:There's some good to take from 9/11, a realization for which I was totally unprepared. In some ways, director Martin Guigui's film reads like a made-for-TV movie exploiting America's defining moment (for now) of the 21st Century; that's down to casting and arriving direct to streaming and DVD, mostly, though some aspects of the plot also inevitably contribute to the movie's lowly guise. However if you give 9/11 a chance you'll get more than you bargained for. But to start, how can one expect anything other than a misguided schlock-fest from a 9/11 movie starring 9/11-truther Charlie Sheen,…

Duckman: The Complete Series

Recommended In 10 Words or LessThe animated adventures of a sexually-obsessed duckReviewer's Bias*Loves: animation, surreal comedy, CornfedLikes: Klasky Csupo animationDislikes: SeinfeldHates: Unmotivated crudenessThe Story So Far...Duckman (voiced by Jason Alexander) is an altogether awful person, whose sole focus is his own unlimited libido. That self-absorption creates unending pain and suffering for his family--including his two-headed sons Charles and Mambo, his dim child Ajax and his dead wife's sister Bernice--and his one friend, Cornfed Pig. Duckman ran for four seasons on USA Network from 1994-1997, and was released on DVD in a pair of two-season box sets in 2008 and 2009,

Nella The Princess Knight

Rent It Kids' TV shows have been a dime a dozen for decades now...and they're usually not great, because they don't have to be. Rugrats will enjoy just about anything with a catchy theme song, colorful characters, or whatever else translates into an action figure, and boy do I sound like my dad right now. But that's what I am at this point: a dad who occasionally bites the bullet, grabbing the occasional kid-friendly disc from a dark, lonely section of the screener p...Read the entire review From http://www.dvdtalk.com/reviews/read.php?ID=72762

Theeb

Recommended Director: Naji Abu NowarStarring: Jacir Eid Al-Hwietat, Hussein Salameh AL-SweilhiyeenYear: 2014Out of the United Arab Emirates and filmed in Jordan comes Theeb, a film nominated for Best Foreign Language Feature at the 2016 Academy Awards. 'Theeb' means 'wolf' in Arabic, and is the name of our main character, as well as a point of metaphor throughout the movie. You won't fail to be impressed by this look into another world, nor will its impact miss the mark for many. And yet while its differences are its strengths, they are also its weaknesses, the delivery of the story so unlike…

My King (aka Mon Roi)

Highly Recommended Best known in America for her professional and personal relationship with Luc Besson, Maiwenn has spent several years back in her home country of France reinventing herself as not just an actor, but a writer/director as well. My King (aka Mon Roi) is her fourth feature-length film as both writer (alongside Etienne Comar) and director, following Polisse, nominated for 13 Cesar Awards (the French equivalent of the Oscar). While on a skiing vacation in the mountains, Toni (Emmanuelle Bercot) injures her knee when her ski gets stuck in the snow. She is taken to a physical rehabilitation clinic,…
