Posted Sep 27, 2005

Posted May 1, 2005
88% F for Fake (1974) " Welcome to the philosophical fun house that is F for Fake, stuffed full of questions about the nature of art and authorship, illusion and reality, lies and truth." — Hollywood Reporter
Posted May 1, 2005
98% Raging Bull (1980) " An underdog in its day and a classic today." — Hollywood Reporter
Posted Feb 23, 2005

Posted Jun 8, 2004
3/5 47% Homegrown (1998) — Hollywood Reporter
Posted Jun 4, 2004
4/5 100% The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes (1939) " Many actors have tried, but none has surpassed Basil Rathbone's embodiment of Sherlock Holmes." — Hollywood Reporter
Posted Jun 4, 2004
4/5 100% The Hound of the Baskervilles (1939) " Many actors have tried, but none has surpassed Basil Rathbone's embodiment of Sherlock Holmes." — Hollywood Reporter
Posted Jun 4, 2004
3/5 92% School of Rock (2003) " Richard Linklater and Jack Black talk a lot about the imperative to rock hard, but their commentary is more Milli Vanilli than Iggy Pop." — Hollywood Reporter
Posted Jun 4, 2004
4/5 88% The Commitments (1991) " 'The Commitments' soars with a new 5.1 mix and a beautifully toned widescreen presentation, atoning for Fox's previous full-screen release." — Hollywood Reporter
Posted Jun 4, 2004
4/5 36% The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (2003) " New Line celebrates the improbable artistic success of "Chainsaw" Jr. with a surgically sharp two-disc "Platinum Edition" DVD set." — Hollywood Reporter

2/5 78% Continental Divide (1981) — Hollywood Reporter
Posted Jun 4, 2004
3/5 90% The Pink Panther (1963) " The five original "Pink Panther" films return in a swinging set. Blake Edwards delivers a delightful solo commentary on the first and best film, "The Pink Panther."" — Hollywood Reporter

97% Alien (1979) " Alien looks amazing, almost like a new film." — Hollywood Reporter
Posted Feb 5, 2004

Posted Feb 4, 2004
3.5/5 69% Once Upon a Time in Mexico (2003) " Robert Rodriguez's DVD film school is back in session. He uses the extras to show viewers how to make a movie on the cheap and on the run. " — Hollywood Reporter
Posted Feb 4, 2004
5/5 100% Indiana Jones - The Adventure Collection () " For many fans and videophiles, the Indy Jones trilogy was the holy grail of DVD titles. Paramount met most of their high expectations with this whip-smart set." — Hollywood Reporter
Posted Jan 15, 2004
4/5 —— Rocky & Bullwinkle Show - Complete Season 1 (2003) " The four-disc set packs in 26 shows, more or less as they aired back in the day. The presentation is probably as good as it's going to get -- and it's good enough. " — Hollywood Reporter
Posted Jan 15, 2004
5/5 —— Alien Legacy (1999) " 'Alien Quadrilogy' weighs in as the new heavyweight champ of DVD boxed sets. The behemoth stands at the intersection of video obsession and science fiction geekdom." — Hollywood Reporter
