 | | 18. Die Hard 2-Die Harder | | | Starring: Bruce Willis Director: Renny Harlin | | Format: DVD Release Date: 11/20/2007 |  | Die Hard 2: Die Harder - DVD Review By: Brian Holcomb - Cinema Blend DVD Reviews Published on: 6/23/2007 8:47 AM | | Die Hard 2 or as I clearly remember it, Die Harder is no match for the original. It's not even a match for the third part in the series. But it's still an effective actioner from an era where every other film was described as "Die Hard in a ----" fill in the blank. This could be seen as one of them, "Die Hard in an Airport" and for all of its flaws it still delivers a well crafted action film with the same kind of irreverent tone as the original. read the full review | |

 | | 25. Lost (Complete First Season) | | | Starring: Terry O'Quinn Dominic Monaghan Director: Jeffrey Abrams | | Format: DVD Release Date: 4/28/2009 | User Rating: 5 |  | Lost: Season One - DVD Review By: Joel Meares - filmcritic.com DVD Reviews Published on: 6/28/2009 1:44 AM | |
Agatha Christie wrote something in excess of 80 novels. Christie was a practiced and a brilliant mystery taleteller, a commercial writer who exploited her full and total grasp of the mystery genre to massive popular success. Each plot was intricately realized, no facet of the mystery introduced that could not be resolved. Such is the enjoyment of good mysteries: a confidence that although clues and complications have confused us for now, in the end the equation will make sense. We should not know the ending, but it should not be impossible to work out. Lost, 2004’s hit about a group of plane-wreck survivors milling about on a mysterious island, crashes and burns on its inability to handle the genre Christie had mastered. read the full review | |

 | | 27. Transformers (Blu-ray) | | | Starring: Josh Duhamel Megan Fox Director: Michael Bay | | Format: Blu-Ray DVD Release Date: 9/2/2008 | User Rating: 5 |  | Transformers - Blu-Ray DVD Review By: Matt Paprocki - Blogcritics.org Reviews Published on: 12/24/2008 3:15 AM | | Way too long with numerous unnecessary scenes, Transformers is excess in the worst way. The Transformers themselves are a sight to see, but it’s difficult to make them out when locked in combat. The thousands of parts used to create them end up being a mass of metal. Still, it is funny at times and when the action is controlled it’s spectacular, but the entire thing feels like it could have been a lot more. read the full review | |

 | | 28. Knowing | | | Starring: Chandler Canterbury Nicolas Cage Director: Alex Proyas | | Format: DVD Release Date: 1/10/2010 |  | Knowing - DVD Review By: Bill Gibron - filmcritic.com DVD Reviews Published on: 6/26/2009 7:44 PM | |
In the list of filmmakers packed with wasted potential, Alex Proyas has to be near the top. While Dark City sparkled with a kind of surreal sci-fi magic, his other efforts -- including the gloppy Will Smith epic I, Robot -- have felt strained and unrewarding. So when you see his name attached to the lasted Nicolas Cage effort (said actor himself a perfect example of the law of continued diminishing returns), one fears a flop coming on. But as luck would have it, Knowing is actually very good. It proves that Proyas is perhaps one mainstream mega-hit away from finally fulfilling his so far unrealized possibilities.
