Reviews

Here are the latest 10 DVD reviews from our friends over at ComingSoon.net:

Babylon A.D. (Special Edition)

"Babylon A.D." is kind of a poor copy of "The Fifth Element" mixed with "Children of Men." The problem is it lacks the charm, creativity and quirkiness of "The Fifth Element" and it lacks the drama, emotion, and powerful acting of "Children of Men."

Battlestar Galactica: Season 4.0

Despite being an abbreviated season, I think the series got on the right track again with Season 4.0.

Eagle Eye (2-Disc Special Edition)

"Eagle Eye" isn't awful, just trite. There are two particularly silly but fun set pieces dealing with Jerry's escape from the FBI and a rogue Predator drone. They're not exactly worth the price of admission, but they keep it from being a total bust. Ultimately though, it suffers from the same problem most high concept films have; it's all smoke, but not enough fire.

Ghost Town

Fans of Ricky Gervais should really love his sarcastic tone in "Ghost Town" and I have a feeling it will win him a bunch of new fans in the U.S., too. "Ghost Town" is a fun comedy well worth checking out.

Burn After Reading

"Burn After Reading" is funny, but expect it to get quite dark. Fans of the Coen brothers should enjoy it as well as fans of any of the ensemble cast.

Death Race (Unrated)

"Death Race" is a guilty pleasure. It's a fun B-Movie in a big budget package. If you're looking for mindless action, you'll want to check out "Death Race."

Mamma Mia! (2-Disc Special Edition)

I'd recommend "Mamma Mia!" to musical fans, fans of the play, and of course anyone that likes ABBA. Everyone else will probably want to pass on it.

The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor (Deluxe Edition)

If you don't mind a mindless action movie with some cool effects, then "The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor" will satisfy you. If you're looking for a better script and more realistic action, then you're out of luck here.

Dr. Seuss' Horton Hears a Who!

This movie was fun enough that I think even if you don't have kids, you'll find "Horton Hears a Who!" to be worth checking out.

Lost: The Complete Fourth Season - The Expanded Experience

The fourth season of "Lost" did a lot to get the series back on track, mainly by going back to their old formula while simultaneously breaking from the old formula.
