24 season seven Blu Ray Review 24 have lost a lot of steam recently. The weak season six combined with 2 year layoff has dulled some luster off this great action series from Fox. The two hour lead in movie was somewhat underwhelming and put more pressure on season seven to restore the series to its greatness. Soon after the completion of the … [Read more...]

The Concept is great and it has so much potential. A Doctor Who spin-off for adult viewing. Bring in some moral issues. Some flawed characters. Some gay action. Give it a hard edge. Some of it is good. There is a realism to the background lives of the each characters. But the staggering immaturity, unbelievability, and silliness of how the team … [Read more...]

The dialog is witty; the script light-hearted; the characters odd-ball and … [Read more...]

Thomas Dekker's portrayal of John Conner is spot on, Brian Austin Green, is actually great. Summer Glau is a great replacement for Arny, Lena Headey does a great job. The main thing I like about this series is that it delves … [Read more...]

"Heroes" is similar to Marvel's "X-Men," in that its characters discover they have different powers. But where "X-Men" is driven more by action and plot, "Heroes" is more character-driven. The show focuses on an ensemble of eight characters, each of whom have a different power. Claire Bennett is a high school cheerleader with the power of … [Read more...]

The first episode of Mad Men honestly represents the drinking, smoking, sexist fifties, a time when Madison Avenue's attitude and control permeated our entire culture, including one international political blunder after another, a time before anyone ever heard of political correctness. Gays were still in the closet, women slept their way to … [Read more...]
