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. …

Dragonslayer UHD Review
Newcomers to Dragonslayer may question the overall attraction and affection for this film. I get that. But the dragon, all the special effects work to realize the full fire-breathing creature, are worth the price of admission alone. This 4K is only the second time I’ve seen Dragonslayer having not caught …
Death Wish (1974) – UHD Blu-ray Review
Michael Winner (1935-2013) wasn’t just a film director, but he was also a media personality in his native England as well as a restaurant critic when he wasn’t making movies. First attracting notice from Hollywood following Hannibal Brooks (1969), he made his debut on the American side of the Atlantic …
If I Were King Blu-ray Review
Poet and king face off for a battle of wits and witticisms in Frank Lloyd’s If I Were King, the 1938 remake of Justin Huntly McCarthy’s much filmed play with rogue poet François Villon and King Louis XI of France as principal protagonist and antagonist.
The Prince and the Showgirl Blu-ray Review
A slight comedy of manners pitting two of the cinema’s biggest stars of the era, Marilyn Monroe and Laurence Olivier, in a romantic intrigue in which everyone wins and everyone loses, The Prince and the Showgirl is not among the more memorable films for either of the two luminaries.

Neptune’s Daughter Blu-ray Review
MGM musicals don’t come much lighter and breezier than Edward Buzzell’s Neptune’s Daughter, Esther Williams’ second starring role of 1949, and with some tuneful Frank Loesser songs and gorgeous Technicolor in tow, she’s in very fine company indeed. .
Babylon UHD Steelbook Review
The unabashed all-in nature of Babylon has an allure that’s surprising. While Damien Chazelle’s direction can be energetic, it also falls into repetition during the long run time, and some of the excesses are more than is needed, but the film never feels like it’s not making a point with …
The Lady from Shanghai (Kino) – Blu-ray Review
After the mixed reception – critically acclaimed yet financially unsuccessful – of his landmark debut Hollywood film Citizen Kane (1941), Orson Welles followed with The Magnificent Ambersons (1942) and Journey Into Fear (1943) (the latter he produced and appeared as an actor only) before a brief hiatus – not entirely …
