SVS PB-1000 Pro Review
SVS. You know who they are, everyone does. They started out as an ID company (Internet Direct) but have branched out into much more than that. However, some folks aren’t comfortable buying on-line and would rather do business with a large retailer like Best Buy/Magnolia, Crutchfield, OneCall or Electronics Expo. …

The Long Wait UHD/Blu-ray Combo Review
Victor Saville’s The Long Wait might not have the lure of Mickey Spillane’s Mike Hammer to draw one to the proceedings, but star Anthony Quinn does a fine job making his two-fisted protagonist a suitable replacement for the brutish tough guy antihero.

Imitation of Life (1934) – Criterion Blu-ray Review

Goodbye, Mr. Chips (1939) Blu-ray Review
One of the most fondly remembered classics from cinema’s Golden Age, Sam Wood’s Goodbye, Mr. Chips examines a life well lived in a low-key, rather leisurely way making its narrative points and etching its characters so subtly that its sentiment, humor, and nostalgia are as natural as breathing.
Rocky: The Knockout Collection UHD Review
Warner/MGM’s Rocky: The Knockout Collection is a bit of a misnomer. Sure, we get the first four films in the franchise, plus a new director’s cut of the fourth, all in UHD, but the set has some QC issues, as well as being short on special features.
Women Talking Blu-ray Review
Sometimes truth is stranger than fiction. Women Talking is based on true events that occurred in the Manitoba Colony in Bolivia in 2010.
