It's impossible to imagine anyone else but Mel Gibson portraying John Link, but the same applies to every project he has taken on throughout his career. The film reaffirms his status as one of the best in the industry, and moreover balances action with a compelling story of a father resorting to all lengths in order to protect his child. I highly recommend both the film adaptation and the novel from Peter Craig.
Enjoyed "Shutter" very much. As often the case with unrated editions, the additional scenes prove nice and by design fill in gaps that perhaps weren't addressed as fully in the theatrical/original. Fantastic compliment to other films inclusive of "The Ring" and "The Grudge".
This release contains every episode from the debut season of the hit original Showtime drama The Affair, about a married writer who falls for a waitress in the quaint Hamptons town where he is summering with his wife and children.
Noah and Alison's journey is so compelling. I've yet to miss an episode, and I cannot wait to add both the freshman and sophomore seasons of "The Affair" to my collection. Each character is perfectly cast and compliments the first-rate writing. Highly recommended!
This set compiles all the episodes from the first season of the ABC drama series Scandal, starring Kerry Washington as a high-powered legal mind who uses her immense skills to get high-profile clients out of difficult public relations situations.
The role of Olivia Pope was tailor made for Kerry Washington, and the same applies for Tony Goldwyn who portrays Fitzgerald "Fitz" Grant. Their chemistry is off the charts. A solid opening season!
This release contains every episode from the debut season of Empire about a wealthy music business owner who is diagnosed with a neurodegenerative disease and must decide which of his three sons will take over when he dies.
The chemistry between Terrence Howard and Taraji Henson is one element that makes the show as compelling as it is. Jussie Smollett is equally fantastic. "Empire" is a well-balanced show with top notch writing and stunning performances from one week to the next.
This release contains the complete second season of The Blacklist, the NBC series starring James Spader as a powerful and lethal spy who helps authorities catch other nefarious international criminals.
"The Blacklist" remains among my favorite programs in large part because of the incomparable James Spader. Megan Boone's interpretation of Elizabeth Keen is equally compelling, and just as nice is watching the supporting talents - notably, Hisham Tawfiq and Amir Arison - receive more screen time.
This release collects every episode from the debut season of The Blacklist, the NBC series starring James Spader as a powerful and lethal spy who helps authorities catch other nefarious international criminals.
The freshman season of "The Blacklist" is fantastic. Anchoring it is a master class acting display from James Spader; Raymond "Red" Reddington is seemingly tailor-made for him. The supporting cast is equally excellent, and I look forward to watching the show for many years to come.
