DVD Review: ROCK OF AGES (BLU-RAY+DVD COMBO)

One of the most critically lambasted and dumped-on films of 2012 comes to Blu-Ray with an extended edition (not always a good thing) and after sitting through this choreographed lovefest to big-haired 1980s rock music I have come to one conclusion. Rock of Ages - I liked it. I may be in the minority, but damn it I liked it.

Say it loud, say it proud: recommended.

DVD Review: WOODENHEAD

Woodenhead is a dark, trippy alt-fairy tale shot in a very unorthodox manner, one that's comic, tragic, sexual and frightening. And then there's the music. The movie itself would be an easy recommendation for fans of the weird, but to make this a no-brainer this 2-disc set also includes a soundtrack CD.

Highly recommended, if you dare.

DVD Review: GIGI (BLU-RAY)

After going my whole life without seeing this Best Picture Oscar winner, it took Warner's Blu-ray release for me to finally give it a chance.

DVD Review: ELVIS: THE ED SULLIVAN SHOW

The performances of Elvis Presley on three 1956 episodes of The Ed Sullivan Show shook American music to its foundations. This trimmed-down disc cuts out all the Topo Gigio, SeÒor Wences and other forgettable stuff and gets you straight to the Elvis.

DVD Review: DR. HORRIBLE' S SING-ALONG BLOG

Just like with the classic Buffy The Vampire Slayer musical episode, I can't get these songs out of my head. It's funny, nerdy and even a little bittersweet, with a spot-on performance from Neil Patrick Harris as the titular bad guy trying to get the girl and change the world.

The content for this re-release carries the same content as the indie on-demand December 2008 version, with the only major difference being an ever so slight variation in the cover art and the fact that it is has been professionally authored and is not on a DVD+R.

Highly recommended.

DVD Review: GIGI (BLU-RAY)

This classic musical is one of my Stepfather's favorite films of all-time. It took a Blu-ray release to finally get me to give it a chance, though.
