MOVIE REVIEW – MONEYBALL – NEW ON BLU-RAY, DVD & STREAMING
This film taught me one very important thing….. Art Howe is evil. Really evil.
MOVIE REVIEW – THE TREE OF LIFE – NEW ON BLU-RAY, DVD & STREAMING
The most frustrating thing about this film is that inside this confusing movie is a very good movie trying to get out.
THE DEVIL’S DOUBLE – NEW ON BLU-RAY, DVD & STREAMING
A flashy feature film entrance for the excellent Dominic Cooper but lacks real punch due to sparse story-induced character introspection. A good rental if you’ve seen everything else at the Redbox.
NEW ON BLU-RAY, DVD & STREAMING – SEASON OF THE WITCH
Unpleasant in all aspects. Far too violent for children and incomprehensible to adults. Never watch it, never consider it.
NEW ON BLU-RAY, DVD & STREAMING – THE KILLER INSIDE ME
A BIG-ASS pile of fashionably dressed, 1960’s corpses.
BLU-RAY & DVD CAPSULE REVIEWS
Capsule reviews by The Movie Guys include “The Wild and Wonderful Whites of West Virginia” and “Paul”. Quick plot, quick opinion and we’re out.
