 | | 1. Transformers 2007 (HD) | | | Starring: Rachel Taylor Shia LaBeouf Director: Michael Bay | | Format: High Definition DVD Release Date: 10/16/2007 | User Rating: 4.8 |  | Transformers - DVD Review By: Sean O'Connell - filmcritic.com DVD Reviews Published on: 10/5/2007 5:03 PM | |
For the first five minutes of Transformers -- a sound-and-fury tornado of effects that could only entertain during summer's dumb-dumb dog days -- you will believe that bombastic blockbuster director Michael Bay was the right choice to helm the project. Peter Cullen, who has voiced heroic robot Optimus Prime since the original Transformers cartoon of 1984, explains the series' legacy as his velvet voice establishes this new movie's driving quest: The search for a hidden cube that is the centerpiece of an age-old war. Geeks will go crazy. read the full review | |

Superman Returns (HD & DVD Combo) | | | Starring: Brandon Routh Director: Bryan Singer | | Format: High Definition DVD Release Date: 11/28/2006 | User Rating: 4 | | Superman Returns - 2-Disc Special Edition - DVD By: Dan Owen - Blogcritics.org Reviews Published on: 12/9/2006 7:41 PM | | There's an emotional purity to Superman that no other comic-book property can match (the Jesus Christ allegory isn't an overstatement -- check out the finale), and fans of Superman's legacy will get additional thrills with the numerous in-jokes and references. Above all, Superman Returns swept me up with its performances, effects, engaging story and sense of nostalgia.

 | | 7. Serenity (HD) | | | Starring: Gina Torres Nathan Fillion Director: Joss Whedon | | Format: High Definition DVD Release Date: 8/8/2006 | | User Rating: 4.3 | | Serenity - DVD Review By: Chris Barsanti - filmcritic.com DVD Reviews Published on: 8/10/2007 9:26 PM | |
Somehow, in the wake of Lucas’ CGI evisceration of his own work and overblown space operas like The Chronicles of Riddick, somebody still knows how to put together an outer-space romp that trades just as heavily on quips and character as it does on conflict and explosions. All the better, there’s barely a movie star in sight. The film in question is Serenity, the by-product of Buffy the Vampire Slayer Joss Whedon’s sci-fi series Firefly. Somehow, Whedon convinced Universal to pony up about $45 million to make and show Serenity to multiplex audiences, 95 percent of whom will have never seen the original series, which lasted on Fox for only 11 episodes back in 2002. read the full review | |

 | | 12. TMNT (HD) | | | Director: Kevin Munroe | | Format: High Definition DVD Release Date: 8/7/2007 | | TMNT - DVD Review By: Jarad I. Wilk - Cinema Blend DVD Reviews Published on: 8/9/2007 7:30 AM | | Director Kevin Munroe has all the ingredients needed to make a successful TMNT adventure - a power-hungry tycoon, ugly bad guys and even uglier monsters, turtles fathered by a Chinese rat in a New York sewer and ninja fights. For me, however, there was something missing from this movie that I, as a kid, always got with the original cartoon series and comic books: Fun. I always remembered having fun and laughing while watching TMNT as a kid. This, however, felt more like I was visiting relatives that I have met before but hadn't seen in 10 years. It was slightly uncomfortable and I wasn't sure if I really wanted to reacquaint myself with them because they were different than I remembered and they smelled kind of funky. Then, of course, they start to fight and everything I was thinking went up in flames, 'cause, heck, it is fun to watch them fight. read the full review | |

 | | 21. Oceans Thirteen (HD) | | | Starring: Brad Pitt George Clooney Director: Steven Soderbergh | | Format: High Definition DVD Release Date: 11/13/2007 | User Rating: 5 | | Ocean's Thirteen - DVD Review By: Rafe Telsch - Cinema Blend DVD Reviews Published on: 11/17/2007 5:48 PM | | If Ocean's Thirteen proves anything it's that revenge is more entertaining than self-preservation. It also proves just how dismal a sequel Ocean's Twelve was, taking the characters away from their home in Vegas and tossing them around the world. The third movie in the franchise sees the troupe return to Vegas, and a return to the antics and banter that made Ocean's Eleven so much fun. Truly, this is the sequel the first film deserved. read the full review | |

 | | 26. Taking Of Pelham 123 (Blu-ray) new! | | | Starring: John Travolta Denzel Washington Director: Tony Scott | | Format: Blu-Ray DVD Release Date: 11/3/2009 | | The Taking of Pelham 1 2 3 (2009) - Blu-Ray DVD Review By: Josh Lasser - Blogcritics.org Reviews Published on: 11/10/2009 8:16 AM | | Featuring a star-packed cast led by Denzel Washington and John Travolta, the film follows the hijacking of a New York City 6 train, the Pelham 1 2 3. It is one of those films where the bad guys, in this case led by the enigmatic Ryder (John Travolta), have everything planned to the last detail, every eventuality worked out. That is, they have every eventuality worked out except for there being someone with a little too much knowledge, too much intelligence, and too much guts working the other side of the hostage negotiation. read the full review | |

 | | 31. GI Joe-Rise of Cobra new! | | | Starring: Channing Tatum Dennis Quaid Director: Stephen Sommers | | Format: DVD Release Date: 11/3/2009 | | G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra - DVD Review By: Chris Barsanti - filmcritic.com DVD Reviews Published on: 10/23/2009 5:09 PM | |
For better or for worse, what G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra inarguably does is to replicate quite well the experience of watching the militarized toy-advertisement cartoons that enraptured so many youthful males during the Reagan era. The film, as programmed by Stephen Sommers, captures the same gung-ho esprit des corps and the theme of banding together with an internationally diversified team (led by an appropriately rock-jawed American, of course), to do battle with a super-evil terrorist force. read the full review | |
