Latest feed entries:

Sleeping Beauty: 50th Anniversary Platinum Edition

DVD Reviews: The behind-the-scenes extras included on this 50th-anni edition only further burnish the film's reputation, but the digital restoration alone, presented in glorious widescreen, would make this singularly spellbinding fairy tale worth reviving on any occasion.

Touch of Evil

DVD Reviews: It’s hard to imagine a greater tribute to a movie than Universal now offers Orson Welles’ “Touch of Evil,” a film frequently called the greatest B-picture.

Forgetting Sarah Marshall

DVD Reviews: Universal's three-disc DVD release of "Forgetting Sarah Marshall" only improves on the bigscreen version, with loads of extras that make one believe that the 112-minute theatrical release could've actually been even better if given a little more breathing room.

Iron Man

DVD Reviews: After "Iron Man's" titanic summer at the box office, Paramount should have further cause for celebration with the film's DVD release. The "Ultimate 2-Disc Edition" has more than four hours of bonus features, including a seven-part documentary and a six-part history of the Iron Man character.

An Autumn Afternoon

DVD Reviews: "An Autumn Afternoon," a color pic from 1962, is Yasujiro Ozu's last completed movie, and its release as a stand-alone DVD - Criterion excluded it from a late-Ozu box on its no-frills Eclipse line - is entirely justified.

The Godfather Trilogy: The Coppola Restoration

DVD Reviews: In an offer that movie buffs can't refuse, the Godfather trilogy received a digital makeover and has been repackaged on Paramount DVD and Blu-Ray. Already released as a 5-disc set in 2001, the new format and crystal-clear new transfers justify the double dip.

Leatherheads

DVD Reviews: Clearly, not everything George Clooney touches turns to gold, as evidenced by the mixed reviews and subpar box office for his football period pic”Leatherheads.” Yet, the hit-and-miss aspect of screwball comedy is sometimes better tolerated at home than in an ever-increasingly expensive evening out at the multiplex.

Ladies and Gentlemen, the Fabulous Stains

DVD Reviews: Rhino Records kicks off its new Rock 'n Roll Cinema DVD series with the long-awaited homevideo debut of the cult classic "Ladies and Gentlemen, the Fabulous Stains."

The Earrings of Madame De. . .

DVD Reviews: Film lovers have long awaited the arrival on DVD of Max Ophuls' exquisite "The Earrings of Madame De…," which no less an authority than Andrew Sarris repeatedly dubbed the greatest film of all time -- a judgment echoed by other critics and plenty of unpublished movie buffs as well.

Gigi

DVD Reviews: MGM's "Gigi," the biggest commercial success of the studio's storied Arthur Freed unit and the last of the great screen musicals not adapted from the stage, returns to DVD in an eye-popping new transfer, part of a two-disc set marking the golden anniversary of this 1958 CinemaScope favorite.

The Big Lebowski

DVD Reviews: "The Big Lebowski's" 10th anni arrives with a triple-dip double-disc DVD that will have fans of the immortal Coen brothers comedy stoked.

The Forbidden Kingdom

DVD Reviews: "The Forbidden Kingdom," the first-ever pairing of Jackie Chan and Jet Li, is a fantasy-oriented "The Karate Kid" in Wonderland. DVD release is packed with features that take viewers deep inside the kung fu rabbit hole.

Special Needs

DVD Reviews: DVD release "Special Needs" doesn't let political correctness get in the way of a good joke while, as the same time, bring out the humanity of those who are supposedly disadvantaged.

Chicago 10

DVD Reviews: Thousands of anti-war protesters take to the streets of a major Midwestern city during a presidential nominating convention and clash with heavily armed police. Substitute 1968 with 2008, Vietnam with Iraq, Chicago with Minneapolis-St. Paul and the Democrats with the Republicans and DVD release of "Chicago 10" seems as timely as ever.

Moontide

DVD Reviews: It's hard to imagine how 20th Century Fox topper Darryl F. Zanuck expected 1942's "Moontide" to transform the great Gallic thesp Jean Gabin into an American movie star.

Entourage: The Complete Fourth Season

DVD Reviews:  The Queens-to-Hollywood kings of "Entourage" are readying their return to HBO for season five. In anticipation of the Sept. 7 premiere, the fourth season DVD release offers fans a satisfying inside look at the year that was the "Medellin" debacle.

Dexter: Season 2

DVD Reviews: It "kills" me to say this, but the "Dexter: Season 2" DVD is DOA. Just as Showtime starts to give HBO a run for its money, the network shortchanges fans of its best series with a no-extras disc package that illustrates the divide still separating the pay cablers' homevid units.

Wasted

DVD Reviews: "Wasted" has sat in limbo since making waves at the 2006 Tribeca Film Festival (previously titled "Farewell Bender"), but while the Weinstein Company has allowed its buzz to cool, this poignant indie still packs an impressive punch on DVD.

Salo, or the 120 Days of Sodom

DVD Reviews: The Criterion seal alone implies a standard of artistic merit, allowing the film to take many audiences by surprise when discovering the true nature of Pier Paolo Pasolini's last, and most astonishing, achievement, for "Salo" is arguably the most disgusting, degrading and controversial film ever made.
