Britney Ever After

Max SchindlerNew DVD release,
Skip It It's easy to scoff at the idea of a Britney Spears biopic for various reasons, but it makes sense. Spears' "Hit Me Baby (One More Time)" is arguably responsible for the current era of pop music, reflected today in the similarly bubblegum-colored, sexy-sweet stylings of Katy Perry and Carly Rae Jepsen. There's also something a bit more intriguing about Spears, who lived a tabloid-friendly life just before the era of TMZ. Spears' career has been back on track and going smoothly for awhile now, but the moment where Spears abruptly shaved off all of her hair and swung…

Phantasm – 5 Movie DVD Collection

Max SchindlerNew DVD release, ,
Recommended In April, Well Go USA finally brought all five Phantasm movies to Blu-ray in a swanky six-disc package stuffed to the gills with bonus features. Now, five months later, Well Go has a second set on offer. This standard-def DVD set may not be a satisfying replacement for Blu-ray owners who wanted the new remastered presentations in their HD glory, but is an affordable alternative for casual fans, and features a reasonable chunk of the content produced by Well Go for the Blu-ray edition.As a franchise, Phantasm is a unique and bizarre beast. Following the exploits of Mike (A.…

Liar’s Dice

Max SchindlerNew DVD release
Skip It Liar's Dice, India's unexpected submission to the 2014 Academy Awards for Best Foreign Film, is admirable in its combination of ambition and unwavering devotion to a specific vision, but the ambition is frequently stunted by a lack of resources, and the vision is more frustrating than rewarding. Making her debut as a feature writer/director following an acclaimed short film (Kelkkunnundo, aka Are You Listening?), Geetu Mohandas, strives to craft an unusual, uncompromisingly bleak road movie. Dice achieves that bleakness, but also a heavy dose of tedium as well. It has been five months since Kamala (Geetanjali Thapa) has…

Dracula in Vegas

Max SchindlerNew DVD release,
Recommended The Movie:Filmmaker Nick Millard has had an interesting career. He started off making softcore skin flicks in the sixties and then made the switch to hardcore once the seventies rolled around. But once 1975 hit, he turned his back on smut and made a few horror films: Satan's Black Wedding and Criminally Insane being the two most popular. A few years later he'd churn out .357 Magnum and then take a break for a while but once the eighties rolled around and camcorders became readily available, Nick made a comeback! Not only did he make a sequel to Criminally…

PAW Patrol: The Great Pirate Rescue!

Max SchindlerNew DVD release, , ,
Recommended PAW Patrol is one of Nick Jr.'s most popular shows in years, packed with all the harmless action and cornball jokes that kids and most parents can't help but snicker at. The Great Pirate Treasure is the newest themed collection of PAW Patrol episodes on disc; it doesn't really change anything about the show's formula or characters, and doesn't have to. Most episodes go like this: the six PAW Patrol canines (klutzy firefighter Marshall, aquatic expert Z...Read the entire review

Tales of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Wanted – Bebop & Rocksteady

Max SchindlerNew DVD release, , , , , ,
Rent It Nickelodeon's 2012 revamp of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles is slowly winding down after five seasons of action and adventure, and the show's been much better than its treatment on DVD thus far. With only one or two stretches of below-average episodes to its name, TMNT has done an excellent job of appealing to old and new fans alike with a strong mixture of comedy, action, danger, and no shortage of drama during some of the series' darker moments. It's been a fun rid...Read the entire review

Diamond Cartel

Max SchindlerNew DVD release,
Skip It Director: Salamat Mukhammed-AliStarring: Karlygash Mukhamedzhanova, Armand AssanteYear: 2017Diamond Cartel is what you would get if you combined Sharknado with The Expendables and set it in Kazakhstan. I'm not kidding, it's that horrible of a concept, and how anyone in their right mind could want to turn it into an actual movie is beyond me. The director is Kazakh, this is his second attempt at a feature film, and his first also writing and producing the flick. It's safe to say that he might not know exactly what he's doing, although the same can surely be said about the…

Cop and a Half: New Recruit

Max SchindlerNew DVD release
Skip It The Movie:I remained oblivious, perhaps blissfully so, to the 1993 buddy cop/family film Cop & A Half with Burt Reynolds in a prime hairpiece era for him. I know it's out there, but there was never an urge to see it. Now for some reason, someone has decided to reboot? remake? Make another installment to the franchise. And great news! It's about what you'd expect it to be.Titled Cop and a Half: New Recruit, the cop in question is Simmons, played by Lou Diamond Phillips (La Bamba), a grizzled cop whose enthusiasm tends to have him break a…
