Hey, if Warner Bros. can go gung-ho over 70th anniversary Blu-ray releases of Gone With the Wind and The Wizard of Oz, why not National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation? Sure, you can think of a hundred reasons, but here's one argument that you'll feel ashamed of bashing: it's many families' quintessential, must-watch-no-matter-what Christmas movie. This "Ultimate Collector's... Read More... ]]> http://www.joblo.com/dvdclinic/index.php?id=4880 2009-07-06 18:31:40 Jul 6, 2009 18:31:40 Johnny Moreno Official artwork coming soon! Diego Luna and Gael Garcia Bernal team up once again in Rudo y Cursi, bringing the total films they've starred in together to 58. In Rudo y Cursi, Diego and Gael play brothers on opposing sides in the world of soccer. Rudo is a short tempered goalie with a gambling and drug problem and Cursi is a suave scorer, both on the field and with the ladies. Both are reaching the heights but...

Instead, like ‘The Exorcist’ before it, it just encouraged imitators and quickie con jobs. Here we are, ten years later, and Hollywood horror has probably never been worse. Exhibit A...

The New York director kicked off his career and style in 1959 with bebop classic Shadows and ended it with two forgettable movies in the mid-'80s. But in between were cinema-vérité classics such as '68's Faces, '71's Minnie and Moskowitz (one of my favorites), '76's The Killing of a Chinese Bookie, and Husbands, from 1970. The film...

I've seen exactly one episode and after it was done, I had to shut it off. I have way too addictive of a personality to get wrapped up in TV shows. Which is why I still haven't gone past my obsession with Tom & Jerry, the Chuck Jones years. Plus, with House it seems like he's always got to get involved with the most outlandish ailments known to man. "On...

Just shy of The Dark Knight's record-breaking 5-day weekend, Michael Bay's latest pyro-orgy took in $200 million, which bodes well for those that picked it as the summer's box office champ. But there are more important things over here at the DVD Clinic,...

Not just the town, but life itself. It appears there are too many big names to leave out on the Cracktown cover, so they just through them all on there including Brandon "Supes" Routh, Kerry Washington, RZA, and my future wife Shannyn Sossamon.

As a fan of boxing and boxing history, I've always found the story of a young, emotional, fearful kid from Brooklyn interesting. In Tyson, we hear the good, the bad and the ugly from the man himself in all contradictory glory. Directed by James Toback, Tyson uses archival footage and photographs with Mike Tyson's own commentary to...

State of Play stars Russell Crowe as a journalist who believes that a pair of recent deaths and the suicide of a young woman have to be connected somehow. Also in the mix are a congressman (Ben Affleck), a blogger-turned-reporter (Rachel McAdams), and a newspaper editor (Helen Mirren). Based on the British TV serial of the same name and directed by...

Finally, one of my most anticipated films of 2009 is coming to DVD and Blu-ray. Sugar, co-directed by Anna Boden and Ryan Fleck (Half Nelson), follows Dominican pitcher Miguel Santos (Algenis Perez Soto) as he begins to question his choices after entering America's minor league system.

In this Paul Newman Tribute Collection, you get 17 discs with movies like: The Long, Hot Summer, Rally ‘Round the Flag, Boys, From the Terrace, Exodus, The Hustler Collector’s Edition, Hemingway’s Adventures of a Young Man, What a Way to Go!, Hombre, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid Collector’s Edition, The Towering Inferno...

Shark Attack 3: Megalodon (2002) Director: David Worth Stars: John Barrowman, Jenny McShane, Ryan Cutrona   Is there a plot? It’s like JAWS, except a hundred times stupider.
