To-date, The Fifth Element, is hands down Luc Besson’s most accomplished film. The story is extremely compelling and interesting, the cast blends perfectly with the amazing sets and action, and even though it had a mixed reception when it opened in 1997 it has come to be loved the world over.

The Dolby Atmos track is truly where Smurfs: The Lost Village shines. Audio moves effortlessly from one speaker to another and travels throughout the room. It really feels like you are transported into the audio-visual space of the Smurfs.

The cast is one of the gems of Their Finest.  Arterton combines an inner strength with an outward vulnerability and naiveté to create the perfect Catrin.  She is sweet and mild but possesses a fire hidden underneath the surface that she doesn’t even realize she has.

While The Belko Experiment will never be anything more than a cult classic film it provides a nice escape for its runtime of 88 minutes. James Gunn and director Greg McLean have created a fun film that anyone who works in the corporate world should see at least once in their life.

While technically Dawn of the Planet of The Apes is a perfect movie, it still has its flaws, but, with saying that, it is still an amazing sequel.

Vestron Video Collector’s Series, in my opinion, is a hit. They continue to release movies from their archives, packed with a ton of extras, too.

The basic concepts of the show are still there, but that is about it.  CHiPs is raw and action packed and wears it’s R-rated badge with pride.

The 4K picture quality (of Life) is unparalleled. Sharp and so well defined, each little drop of blood floating in space is amazingly detailed.  Each tentacle on the alien organism is unique and it’s hideous “face” adds to the terror.  The Dolby Atmos audio is also terrific and enhances ones viewing pleasure.

Table 19 is a homage to the somewhat socially awkward or periphery people that attend any catered party.  It’s also a heartwarming tale of how five strangers can change someone’s life in the course of mere hours.
