Beck | | Format: Blu-Ray DVD Release Date: 4/28/2009 |  | Star Trek: Season One - DVD Review By: David Bezanson - filmcritic.com DVD Reviews Published on: 4/17/2009 5:36 PM | |
Just like religion and the U.S. Constitution, science fiction has remained popular while losing much of its meaning. Sci fi has never been bigger than it is today, but unlike the fifties -- when even the lamest creature features carried "messages" about nuclear anxiety or the nobility of space exploration -- today's sci-fi movies and TV series don't have much to say. At best, they are action/drama series with intergalactic settings. The hugely successful Star Trek franchise has been part of that transition. read the full review | |

 | | 15. Caprica | | | Starring: Eric Stoltz Esai Morales | | Format: DVD Release Date: 8/11/2009 |  | Caprica - DVD Review By: Emily McDonald - Cinema Blend DVD Reviews Published on: 4/27/2009 3:38 PM | | With Battlestar Galactica officially over and Joss Whedon's newest science fiction drama being merely mediocre, there is a lot of pressure on the SyFy network's upcoming BSG spin-off, Caprica. The show will air in 2010, but the network has put out a teaser film-version of the pilot episode. read the full review | |

 | | 22. Bridge To Terabithia (Widescreen) | | | Starring: Josh Hutcherson Robert Patrick Director: Gabor Csupo | | Format: DVD Release Date: 8/15/2008 | User Rating: 4 |  | Bridge to Terabithia - DVD Review By: Ed Perkis - Cinema Blend DVD Reviews Published on: 6/26/2007 10:52 PM | | The scenes in Terabithia, where Jesse and Leslie briefly battle creatures which echo their struggles at school and home, is the movie's only fantasy element. The rest is firmly rooted in the reality of school yard and home-life troubles, familiar to anyone who didn't quite fit in during these formative years. Jesse's relationship with Leslie, not a romance but a true friendship, gives him confidence to do what he enjoys while facing down some of the roadblocks in his life. read the full review | |

 | | 36. Pans Labyrinth (Single Disc) | | | Starring: Doug Jones Ivana Baquero Director: Guillermo Del Toro | | Format: DVD Release Date: 5/5/2009 | | Video Reviews Available: 1 |  | Pan's Labyrinth - DVD By: Chris Barsanti - filmcritic.com DVD Reviews Published on: 5/4/2007 4:41 PM | |
Unfolding before viewers' eyes like luxuriantly blooming nightshade, Guillermo del Toro's Pan's Labyrinth is a dark treat that delivers a powerful sting. The nightmare conventions are here in his story of a young girl whose moorings to the real world have been quite effectively cut, everything from mysterious forests and exaggeratedly evil father figures to subterranean monsters and a fairy world existing quite close to our own. But instead of losing himself in the otherworldly, del Toro bases this fantasia in the deadliest of realities.
