A Fistful of Dollars and For a Few Dollars More Blu-ray Disc Reviews

By Howard ⋅ September 13, 2011 ⋅ Post a comment

Last year The Man with No Name Trilogy films were released on Blu-ray as a box set and The Good, The Bad and The Ugly a couple of years ago on its own. Now, the first two films, A Fistful of Dollars and For A Few Dollars More, are available separately on Blu. These are the identical discs from the set released a year ago. …Continued…

By Brenden ⋅ May 30, 2011 ⋅ One comment

Kino recently released on Blu-ray a trio of classic collaborations between actors Marcello Mastroianni and Sophia Loren and director Vittorio De Sica (Bicycle Thieves, Umberto D.), the eldest of which is the Oscar award winning Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow from 1963. …Continued…

Hereafter Blu-ray Disc Review

By Howard ⋅ March 17, 2011 ⋅ Post a comment

I can’t tell you what will happen when you die, but I can tell you what will happen when you watch Hereafter. You will see another film by a living legend who makes films based on topic rather than the overall story. Three people, in three stories, from three countries, with one common thread: death and whatever comes next. A fascinating topic, but the unfolding of the story is a touch un-touching. …Continued…

Invictus Blu-ray Disc Review

By Howard ⋅ July 5, 2010 ⋅ One comment

Clint Eastwood films generally have more than a little of a documentary feel to them, and Invictus is no different. He takes a piece of little-known history and, in his way, gives it the resonance deserving of the type of story that it is: Inspiring. …Continued…

Top 5 New Blu-ray releases for the Week of June 1

By Brenden ⋅ June 1, 2010 ⋅ Post a comment

Oh geez. I’m all confused here. There are just too many titles hitting shelves again this week but no obvious “must-buy” disc, as far as I’m concerned. The new Hollywood blockbuster remakes all stumble in the storytelling department, the catalogue titles feature far-from-perfect presentations and there are just no damn Criterion titles as far as the eye can see! But don’t fear, if none of the brand spanking new titles do it for you this week, I’m sure you can find something in the massive batch of Eastwood newly released or re-released, as the case may be, on Blu-ray! Seriously, how many movies did has that guy made?! …Continued…

Top 5 New Blu-ray releases for the Week of May 18

By Brenden ⋅ May 19, 2010 ⋅ 3 comments

This week is a no-brainer for me, as the number one pick is one of my all time favourite films! The rest of the Blu-ray discs out this week are a bit of a mixed bag, though, with some decent, new Hollywood fliks (and some truly awful ones), some catalogue titles and a couple of pretty decent anime releases. …Continued…

Leone's Man With No Name Trilogy coming to Blu-ray in June

By Brenden ⋅ April 9, 2010 ⋅ Post a comment

Once upon a time, I used to own a copy of Sergio Leone’s brilliant The Good, The Bad and The Ugly on Blu-ray. That was before some ass broke into our house in January and stole a crapload of my films, that one included. I’ve been on the verge of replacing it for ages but seeing as how MGM has announced the imminent arrival of The Man With No Name Blu-ray boxed set, which includes my missing disc, I’m glad I held off. I dearly love these spaghetti westerns. They’re unquestionable classics, single-handedly responsible for making Clint Eastwood a superstar. I’m hoping that the first two films in the trilogy look as good on Blu as The Good, The Bad and The Ugly does. …Continued…

Another week, another bank-breaker collection of new Blu-ray releases! Thankfully for my pocketbook, while there may be a lot of titles hitting the shops today, there isn’t a lot I feel the need to grab up. As always, we appreciate any Amazon purchase you make through our links. They help to keep this column and the site alive! …Continued…
