 | | 257. Saw IV (R-Rated Widescreen) | | | Starring: Tobin Bell Betsy Russell Director: Darren Lynn Bousman | | Format: DVD Release Date: 1/27/2009 | | Video Reviews Available: 1 |  | Saw IV - DVD Review By: Jesse Hassenger - filmcritic.com DVD Reviews Published on: 1/21/2008 5:25 PM | |
The Saw films will doubtless continue and soon enough Saw IV will probably be relegated to the same blur with which I now see the other sequels. But for now it's the odd movie out -- as cheap and cheesy as its brethren, but oddly boring for long stretches. By now, these Saw characters have been having a very bad couple of murder-packed weeks. Maybe it would be best if the filmmakers skipped ahead and put this behind them.

 | | 266. 3:10 To Yuma (Widescreen) | | | Starring: Russell Crowe Christian Bale Director: James Mangold | | Format: DVD Release Date: 9/9/2008 | | 3:10 to Yuma - DVD Review By: Brian Holcomb - Cinema Blend DVD Reviews Published on: 1/11/2008 11:24 PM | | The western has been buried and revived so many times in recent years that it's beginning to resemble one of George Romero's stale zombies, stumbling about with only a trace memory of it's former self. The trouble lies in the very idea of a "revival". As director James Mangold mentions himself on the DVD commentary, this inspires contemporary filmmakers to make westerns that are about other westerns and the genre itself rather than simply telling their own story. read the full review | |

 | | 274. W. (Widescreen) | | | Starring: Josh Brolin Director: Oliver Stone | | Format: DVD Release Date: 2/10/2009 | | Video Reviews Available: 1 | | W. - DVD Review By: Jason Morgan - filmcritic.com DVD Reviews Published on: 1/30/2009 4:47 PM | |
As President Bush's second term winds down and the race for 2008 spins at fevered pace, now is the time to make a statement -- reflecting on the failures of the current administration and projecting our hopes for the next. Oliver Stone's W. is not that statement. With characters as shallow as W.'s nicknames -- Poppy, Rummy, Vice, to name a few -- Stone plots a confused course following George W. from a directionless, silver spoon frat boy to his absent-minded presidency. At best, W. is just as glorious a failure as Bush's administration. read the full review | |

 | | 277. Irreconcilable Differences | | | Starring: Ryan O'Neal Director: Charles Shyer | | Format: DVD Release Date: 4/14/2009 | | Irreconcilable Differences - DVD Review By: Jason McKiernan - filmcritic.com DVD Reviews Published on: 4/23/2009 8:36 PM | |
Back in the "glory days" of the mid-1990s, Irreconcilable Differences was a cable television mainstay. It played at least once every week and often ran two or three times on weekends. For whatever reason I watched it over and over again, and in the process, sort of fell in love with this totally imperfect yet sneakily lovable movie. Over a decade after it vanished from the cable TV lazy weekend repertoire, the film is finally getting a DVD release -- fittingly, as part of a series called "The Lost Collection." After revisiting the movie, it sure is a far-fetched, silly trifle of a fairy tale, but it's still charming, and still believable in its own way. read the full review | |

 | | 284. The Spirit (2-Disc Special Edition) | | | Starring: Gabriel Macht Samuel L. Jackson Director: Frank Miller | | Format: DVD Release Date: 4/14/2009 | | Video Reviews Available: 1 | | The Spirit - DVD Review By: Chris Barsanti - filmcritic.com DVD Reviews Published on: 4/3/2009 5:36 PM | |
It's been too long since we've had a proper comic book superhero on the screen. There's been enough of them running around and bashing up the bad guys in a CGI-enhanced fashion, that's for sure. But it's hard to look at the recent cinematic incarnations of Tony Stark and Bruce Wayne and call them "superheroes;" even if they keep their identities secret and have nifty outfits. "Billionaire action figures" would be more appropriate, what with all their high-priced gadgetry and super-duper hideouts. Whatever happened to the caped heroes who kept an eye on the city's dark alleys and took out the bad guys with nothing more than a sock to the jaw? Frank Miller's jazzy The Spirit answers that question with a cocky wink and a grin. read the full review | |
