Latest DVD Reviews Genre: family

DVD Review: HUGO (BLU-RAY+DVD)

Martin Scorsese's love letter to the magic of cinema - wrapped in the thin guise of being a "family film" - has arrived in a 2-disc Blu-Ray/DVD combo from Paramount. Though a bit light in the supplement department the BD audio/video transfers are reference-quality.

Highly recommended.

DVD Review: BIGFOOT

A simplistic family/tweener Bigfoot adventure, in the vein of Harry and the Hendersons, only not nearly as good. It's tough to find suitable family fare these days, and though this one isn't especially original, it should fit the bill if you got youngsters in the house.

DVD Review: HOTEL FOR DOGS (BLU-RAY)

I'm reviewing this movie for two reasons: My kids' desire to see it and the cute Pug on the cover. Otherwise, I doubt even the great Don Cheadle can save it.

DVD Review: ARCTIC TALE (BLU-RAY)

If Ben Lyons thinks this is "A Perfect Family Film" then it simply has to be just that. Who can argue with the guy who thinks I AM LEGEND is one of the best movies of all-time?
