End of Watch Blu-ray Review

End of Watch Blu-ray Review

Simply shooting something guerrilla style and dripping in a lot of F-bombs may qualify as gritty these days, but it doesn’t make it an interesting film. End of Watch is a less than average buddy-cop crime drama saved only by good performances from its leads.

Dick Tracy Blu-ray Review

Dick Tracy has a fantastic cast and wonderful production, but ultimately it suffers from a not so great script. This Blu-ray also offers only an average transfer of the film’s dazzling bright primary color palette.
