Let me sum up this review — a bad man-hating film and an inconsistent picture. The slain actress and director Adrienne Shelly deserved far better than this as a tribute in her honor.
Tom Hardy stands out in this dark and surreal story of England’s most violent killer, but we were not impressed by the Super16mm film’s hi-def transfer.
Forget the confusing plot, Ong Bak 2 serves up enough blood spilling action sequences to keep martial arts fans happy with an engaging DTS-HD Master Audio soundtrack and strong HD transfer as added bonuses.
This sullen, overwrought, and over thought drama may be a solid effort on Blu-ray from Magnolia but a confused plot and dour drama leave The Burning Plain a lifeless affair that even a strong cast can’t revive.
Bobcat Goldthwait’s film starring Robin Williams defies its name and offers up some well-acted dark comedy for adults and it looks good in this 1080p transfer from Magnolia.
Writer/director John Hindman’s The Answer Man is a charming and intelligent romantic comedy wonderfully acted and solidly transferred to Blu-ray by Magnolia Home Entertainment.
This scathing exposé from director Robert Kenner on the food industry in the United States will have you thinking twice before you take a bite of that food on your plate.
