I cover the new Region 1 DVD release of Season Four of Lost over at Film.com. (It’s also just out in Region 2.) A “recommend” or a comment over at Film.com would be nice, if you feel you can recommend the story or have something interesting to say in a comment. It pleases the Film.com … more…
It’s billed as a ‘Hitchcockian thriller,’ but frankly I see nothing either Hitchcockian nor thrilling this same-old Gallic tale…
obsession: Doctor Who (I’m wallowing in DVDs…) boyfriend: Lee Pace in Pushing Daisies (I’m making the most of him while the show is still on the air) psyched: The Tale of Despereaux (a mouse who wants to be a hero? adorable) dreading: Bedtime Stories (Zohan notwithstanding, I’m still not an Adam Sandler fan) enemy: anyone … more…
I ordered a ridiculous number of Doctor Who DVDs recently, and when they arrived, it was like Christmas morning: A really gratifying Christmas morning. I also just received screeners of two new early January Region 1 DVD releases: the Peter Davison story “Four to Doomsday” and the William Hartnell story “The War Machines.” It’s gonna … more…

It’s another holiday tradition: the weekend after Thanksgiving is typically one the movies take a breather over, and that tradition held true. Neither of the new wide releases made much of a showing, and in fact, except for Australia and Quantum of Solace swapping spots, the lineup looks the same as last weekend: 1. Four … more…
This would have looked like science fiction thirty years ago: Today, it’s almost impossible to tell whether it’s intended as satire or as helpful advice for the modern age. (It’s satire. And thirty years ago it was, indeed, science fiction.)
Take a break from work: watch a movie trailer… Remember, from forever more, she is Academy Award-winner Kim Basinger. Don’t tell her that, at 55 years of age, she is a bit long in the tooth to be playing the mother of kindergartners, never mind the damsel in distress. Because she will beat you to … more…
