The Tuskegee Airmen (Blu-ray)

Recommended THE MOVIE: Hmmm, I wonder what could have prompted HBO Home Video to upgrade their 1995 TV movie The Tuskegee Airmen for a Blu-ray release? Looking at their slate for January, we see that it’s being accompanied by the new performance film Thurgood (starring Airmen ‘s Laurence Fishburne) and their acclaimed 1991 film The Josephine Baker Story ; some kind of pre-Black History Month …

Traffic: Criterion Collection (Blu-ray)

Highly Recommended THE MOVIE: Please Note: The screengrabs used here are from the standard-definition DVD released in 2002, not from the Blu-Ray. It’s hard to believe it’s been ten years since Steven Soderbergh’s Traffic landed in cinemas.

The Big Country (Blu-ray)

Highly Recommended THE MOVIE: My first encounter with The Big Country was a couple of years ago. I wasn’t familiar with William Wyler’s 1958 film until George Clooney was talking about how he borrowed a scene from it for Leatherheads .

Lips of Blood (Blu-ray)

Highly Recommended The Movie: One of Jean Rollin’s more interesting films, 1975s Levres De Sang (better known in North America as Lips Of Blood , which is how it was released on DVD a few years back from Image/Redemption and how it’s being re-released again through Redemption and Kino with this Blu-ray debut!) begins with the simple image of a van heading through the night towards an eerie old …

Archer: Season 2 (Blu-ray)

Highly Recommended There’s…I don’t know, there’s a word I’m looking for here — one word that tells you everything you need to know about the second season of Archer without having to slog through a whole long, rambling review. I think it goes something like: You were supposed to click the ‘Play’ button on that, by the way

Blackthorn (Blu-ray)

Recommended THE MOVIE: On the way out of my first viewing of Mateo Gil’s Blackthorn , I overheard someone calling it a “standard Western”–as if that would be a bad thing, if there were any such thing anymore. Making a Western these days is anything but standard; they’re enough of a novelty that it’s still worth being thankful when we get one, and not dismissing it for being less than a …

Film Socialisme (Blu-ray)

Highly Recommended THE FILM: Please Note: The images used here are promotional stills and are not taken from the Blu-ray edition under review. There is a scene in Godard’s turning-point 1965 film Pierrot le fou in which stars Anna Karina and Jean-Paul Belmondo perform an impromptu “play” for American tourists in which an event as vast, urgent, and serious as the Vietnam War–including all its …

Futurama 6 (Blu-ray)

Recommended It never fails – You give a television network pure gold, and they’ll beat it and roll it around in the mud before you ever had a chance to realize what was happening to it. Instead of looking at the quality of any given program, network executives would rather comb feverishly through their charts, graphs and reams of statistical data, and in pondering how much blood they might be …
