 | | 7. Deja Vu | | | Starring: Adam Goldberg Bruce Greenwood Director: Tony Scott | | Format: DVD Release Date: 12/26/2008 |  | Déjà Vu - DVD By: Mary K. Williams - Blogcritics.org Reviews Published on: 4/24/2007 9:28 AM | | Beginning with a horrific bombing of the New Orleans Canal Street Ferry, Déjà Vu is a visually intense movie. Reminiscent somewhat of the sci-fi plot, images and film techniques of Spielberg’s Minority Report, Tony Scott employs a combination of a high definition Genesis, Time Track, and Lydar cameras to create Déjà Vu. read the full review | |

American Gangster (HD & DVD Combo) | | | Starring: Denzel Washington Russell Crowe Director: Ridley Scott | | Format: High Definition DVD Release Date: 2/19/2008 | | Video Reviews Available: 1 |  | American Gangster - DVD Review By: Chris Barsanti - filmcritic.com DVD Reviews Published on: 2/8/2008 5:27 PM | |
There's something dead in Denzel Washington's eyes nearly all of the way through Ridley Scott's American Gangster, which takes what should have been a mesmerizing slice of urban historical grit and grinds it into roughly two hours of standard issue cinema. Washington is playing Frank Lucas, a real-life crime boss who for a period lasting from the late 1960s into the following decade, ran Manhattan "from 110th to 155th, river to river." A real slick character who doesn't need to strut his worth on the street, Lucas hates flash like a junkie hates rehab: It reminds him of all he truly is but doesn't want to be. read the full review | |

 | | 15. 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 | |

I'll admit that the Civil War just isn't my choice of an afternoon. Between TNT's affinity of putting Gettysburg on every 4th of July and the love that multiple friends of mine seem to harbor for drawn out epics concerning the Civil War (either on film or in book), I just have gotten fairly sick and tired of seeing the Civil War on celluloid again and again. You pile on the fact that I had to change my phrasing to "the war of Northern aggression" whilst I was living in Raleigh, North Carolina and I just don't want to hear another thing for it. This said, you can see why Glory is a very special exception to my rule of antipathy towards war films with muskets in them. read the full review | |

 | | 26. Inside Man (Blu-ray) | | | Starring: Clive Owen Denzel Washington Director: Spike Lee | | Format: Blu-Ray DVD Release Date: 1/3/2010 |  | Inside Man - Blu-Ray DVD Review By: Chris Beaumont - Blogcritics.org Reviews Published on: 6/1/2009 8:19 AM | | Along with my very late-blooming love for the cinema and my gravitation towards genre films, there are some filmmakers whose films I have never seen. One of those filmmakers is Spike Lee. When I saw Inside Man back in 2006 on the big screen I was finally able to say that I had seen a Spike Lee film. To this date, it remains the only one I have seen. I know, I know, that means there are a lot of quality movies that I have yet to see, a fact I hope to one day rectify. In any case, the heist film has arrived on Blu-ray and marks the first time I have seen the film since its big screen bow. read the full review | |
