 | | 1. Do the Right Thing (Blu-ray) new! | | | Starring: Danny Aiello Spike Lee Director: Spike Lee | | Format: Blu-Ray DVD Release Date: 6/30/2009 |  | Do the Right Thing - 20th Anniversary Edition - Blu-Ray DVD Review By: Dusty Somers - Blogcritics.org Reviews Published on: 6/29/2009 10:47 AM | | Visceral, challenging, immediate, and uncomfortable, Do the Right Thing hasn’t lost any of its bite over the last 20 years. Often considered Spike Lee’s masterwork — I’d say it’s definitely in the top three — it will likely endure better than any of his other films. The racial questions the film provokes are still relevant now even if the circumstances surrounding most issues of race aren’t quite as inflamed as in the film. Lee himself certainly thinks the questions still need to be asked. Do the Right Thing works because despite the over-the-top nature of many of the events (even this is debatable), it’s not purely a message movie. read the full review | |

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 | |

 | | 14. Ice Age- The Meltdown (Widescreen) | | | Starring: John Leguizamo Ray Romano | | Format: DVD Release Date: 10/14/2008 | | Ice Age: The Meltdown By: Sean O'Connell - filmcritic.com DVD Reviews Published on: 11/17/2006 12:32 AM | | I hated Ice Age. The prehistoric road-trip comedy arrived in theaters on the heels of the superior Shrek and paled in comparison. Even judged on its own merits, Age moved like a two-ton glacier, suffered from a by-the-numbers screenplay that failed to take one risk, and overdosed on sadistic slapstick humor last utilized by the animators of Tom and Jerry. read the full review | |

Street Fighter Extreme Edition (Blu-ray) | | | Starring: Jean-Claude Van Damme Director: Steven E. deSouza | | Format: Blu-Ray DVD Release Date: 2/10/2009 | | Street Fighter - Extreme Edition - Blu-Ray DVD Review By: Dusty Somers - Blogcritics.org Reviews Published on: 2/10/2009 10:18 AM | | When it comes to truly terrible movies, you’ve got the ones that fall into the "so bad, it’s good" category and those that are more the "so bad, it’s so, so bad" type. Street Fighter, based, in fact, on the second installment of the video game franchise (like the source material means anything for this kind of thing), falls somewhere between the two, but it’s definitely leaning toward the “no, it really is that bad” side. read the full review | |

 | | 42. 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 | |

 | | 46. Batman- The Dark Knight (Blu-ray) | | | Starring: Heath Ledger Christian Bale Director: Christopher Nolan | | Format: Blu-Ray DVD Release Date: 12/9/2008 | | User Rating: 5 | | Video Reviews Available: 1 | | The Dark Knight - Blu-Ray DVD Review By: Matt Paprocki - Blogcritics.org Reviews Published on: 12/1/2008 8:06 PM | | It’s hard to fathom a movie with more hype behind it than The Dark Knight. This is the point where the comic book movie has truly come into its own, surpassing the usual boundaries to become something more. It’s impossible to give full credit to anyone here, although names can certainly be tossed out as to who made this more special than it would have been without them. It’s not a perfect film by any stretch, but it’s a great thrill ride. read the full review | |
