 | | 20. A Scanner Darkly new! | | | Starring: Robert Downey Keanu Reeves Director: Richard Linklater | | Format: DVD Release Date: 11/10/2009 |  | A Scanner Darkly By: Rafe Telsch - Cinema Blend DVD Reviews Published on: 12/23/2006 7:45 PM | | Drama is exactly what A Scanner Darkly is. Despite a vaguely futuristic setting (seven years in the future really isn't that far, is it') and advertising that sometimes makes the film appear to be an animated Matrix tale, the film bears little resemblance to traditional science fiction (although you have to love the irony that Substance "D" is a red pill, continuing the science fiction idea that you should always question the consequences of swallowing any red pill). read the full review | |

 | | 33. Underworld (2-Disc Extended Cut, Unrated) | | | Starring: Kate Beckinsale Director: Len Wiseman | | Format: DVD Release Date: 8/28/2007 |  | Underworld - DVD Review By: Annette Cardwell - filmcritic.com DVD Reviews Published on: 5/3/2009 5:39 AM | |
Underworld’s trailer makes it looks wonderfully slick and dark in the tradition of The Matrix and Blade; but after seeing it, you’ll realize that everything that seemed dazzling was simply stolen and then abused – from its Dark Shadows-meets-Matrix costumes to its Blade weaponry to its Nine Inch Nails video backdrops. Nothing about Underworld is original; it’s a hackneyed, patched-together goth-kid fantasy that I’m convinced was written a 15-year-old boy who wears black eyeliner (think the Saturday Night Live skit “Goth Talk”). read the full review | |

 | | 42. Stargate SG-1: Children of the Gods | | | Starring: Amanda Tapping Richard Dean Anderson | | Format: DVD Release Date: 7/21/2009 | | Video Reviews Available: 1 |  | Stargate SG-1: Children of the Gods (Final Cut) - DVD Review By: The Masked Movie Snobs - Blogcritics.org Reviews Published on: 7/27/2009 7:45 PM | | The original pilot episode of the long-running television show has just been re-released on DVD. But it is a new version that’s been re-cut, re-mastered, and has new special effects. Since I hadn’t seen the pilot episode for quite some time, I had to pull out my original copy from the Season 1 box set and compare it to the new version. I wasn’t sure if it was going to be a drastic difference or if it was just going to be a marketing gimmick with just a few minor changes to the original. I noticed the differences immediately in the credits. They began as they would in a feature-length film, and gone was the traditional opening credit scene against the backdrop of the Stargate. read the full review | |
