Luis and The Aliens (2018): Likeable characters and an entertaining story for the family.; DVD ~~$20~~ $15, $19.95
Kubo & The Two Strings (2016): The characters were interesting and a little different/strange – the animation style was also interesting.; DVD ~~$25~~ $18.75
1917 (2019): The set designs and props used in the first hour were excellent – perhaps a bit of background gunfire was missing otherwise things looked pretty authentic. The second hour was a waste of time however as the screenplay went off the rails.; DVD $24.95 | Blu-Ray $29.95, $49.95
Jane Austen Book Club, The (2007): A good idea but it predictably got sidetracked by romance. A good female ensemble cast should have been left alone with their literary pursuits.; DVD $14.95 | Blu-Ray $19.95
Anaconda (1997): The anaconda segments were fine and couldn't come quickly enough.; DVD ~~$10~~ $7.50
Countess Dracula (1971): Not one of Hammers strongest but still worth a watch.
Tell It To The Bees (2018): The story follows a well trodden path but the shooting locations, wardrobe, and other period details are excellent.; DVD $24.95
Troll in Central Park (1994): Some old–style animation makes a nice change.; DVD $19.95
Taste the Blood of Dracula (1970): It is a very good example of what Hammer Studios are capable of. The support casting of British character actors certainly helps.; DVD $19.95
Danger Close: The Battle of Long Tan (2019): Action aplenty but so is the use of the slow–motion camera. As the screenplay is based on real events the filmmaker should know that people don't get shot in slow motion & it is disrespectful to those facing danger. It should please action fans.; DVD $24.95 | Blu-Ray $29.95
