 | | 20. John Q (infinifilm-Dts) coming soon! | | | Starring: Anne Heche Denzel Washington Director: Nick Cassavetes | | Format: DVD Release Date: 12/8/2009 |  | John Q - DVD Review By: Norm Schrager - filmcritic.com DVD Reviews Published on: 3/27/2009 5:36 PM | |
It’s tough to imagine a movie star of Denzel Washington’s stature making a credible beleaguered everyman, but Washington does it in John Q. Unlike, say, Cary Grant, who always looked like the sharpest looking dude in Hollywood even when playing "regular guys," Denzel goes out of his way to ugly himself a bit, letting his hair grow a little unruly and adding on some chunky pounds. It’s not necessary in a film with as much big movie sheen as this one, but it shows Washington’s dedication – a trait that leaps off the screen, commands the movie, and pulls the entire audience in. read the full review | |

 | | 36. Days of Thunder (Blu Ray) | | | Starring: Nicole Kidman Robert Duvall Director: Tony Scott | | Format: Blu-Ray DVD Release Date: 12/30/2008 |  | Days of Thunder - Blu-Ray DVD Review By: Josh Lasser - Blogcritics.org Reviews Published on: 12/26/2008 7:00 PM | | Watch a Tom Cruise movie – be it from the present day or two decades ago – and you get the indefinable essence of a movie star. Be the film good, bad, or somewhere in between, there's Tom Cruise, shining and larger than life. There are certain aspects of his performance, of his personality, which bleed across from one film to the next. There are few performances in which Tom Cruise's character doesn't have a cocksure attitude, in which his character doesn't defy death. This Tuesday a classic Tom Cruise performance will wend its way to Blu-ray as Cole Trickle from Days of Thunder makes his first appearance in the high-definition format. For those of you who can't instantly recollect which Cruise vehicle that was, think Top Gun, but with cars. Or, thought of another way, it's the one where he first worked with Nicole Kidman, the one that started it all. read the full review | |
