Zombies rule in the second season of I Zombie as our heroine Liv and her friends walk a fine line between comedy and brain chomping action. The action really heats up for a thrilling season climax that could change the show forever.
I cannot stress how much I loved Dr. Strange. It is very true to the characters and origin from the comics, perhaps the best since the first Capt. America film- If u can overlook the female non Asian Ancient One. The movie is a non stop ride of excellent special effects and a mind bending trip thru the Astral plane into other dimensions. Not to be missed.
The fifth and final season of Boardwalk Empire follows embattled Alantic City politician Nucky Thompson (Steve Buscemi) as he confronts the demons of his past and strengthens his foothold in smuggling goods illegally back and forth from Cuba. Elsewhere, gangster Al Capone's behavior becomes increasingly erratic as the feds close in, and Chalky White struggles to evade law enforcement and avenge the death of his daughter.
Boardwalk empire is a riviting period piece about gangsters back in the day with excellent acting all around especially by Star Steve Buscemi. Tho final season is a bit of let down, that seems to be the case with most series these days.
Miss Peregrine is not Tim Burton's best film but is a visual feast full of Burton's trademark magic. It concerns a school for exceptional children under attack by a scenery munching Samuel L Jackson. A little slow at times the film ends with some slam bang action. A little intense at times for younger kids, it's underlying themes make it worth a look.
Black Mass is based on the true life story of Boston gangster (don't call him) Whitey Bolger..Was he as vile and sociopathic as portrayed by Johnny Depp? I would hope such a person could not exist. Depp gives an incredible and complex performance buried under tons of make-up and pulls it off.Recommended.
Bruno Mars has returned with a new CD of poppy infectious music that few will be able to resist.Though nothing grabs on this CD like Mars' collaboration with Mick Ronson on Uptown Funk, there is enough excellent music here to make It well worth the price.
The Bourne Classified Collection is indeed that, having a disc holder to add the newest Bourne film that will soon be released on Blu-ray. Having owned these films on DVD, what I appreciated the most is that this collection contains every bonus feature from past releases and also holds several new ones. Anyone who enjoys the "making of" and "how did they do that" clips will not be disappointed. The four films all hold up well with groundbreaking fight and action sequences. For the price this set can't be beat.
Orphan Black's, fourth season continues the twisty turny adventures of a clone named Sarah and her identical "sisters" as they battle insidious corporations and other shadowy groups as the fight to survive. The lead is amazing as she assumes the various identities and personalities of her sisters#nd the show never lacks action and chills.
It Came From Outer Space is an old 50's film that still plays well today. A crisp script that tells of stranded aliens on Earth resonates with the current refugee crisis facing us today. The biggest draw for this film though is the excellent 3-d that is some respects is superior to today's attempts. Watch the bonus extra that explains how the studio developed their own technique to accomplish the 3-d. The blu-ray is well worth the price and an excellent BestBuy exclusive.
The sixth season of this crime drama opens with Beckett (Stana Katic) accepting a marriage proposal from Castle (Nathan Fillion).
