The Untouchables (Special Collector's Edition) [Blu-ray]

The Untouchables (Special Collector's Edition) [Blu-ray] Review



The critics and public agree. Brian De Palma's The Untouchables is a must-see masterpiece - glorious, fierce, larger-than-life depiction of the mob warlord who ruled Prohibition-era Chicago... and the law enforcer who vowed to bring him down. This classic confrontation between good and evil and stars Kevin Costner as federal agent Eliot Ness, Robert De Niro as gangland kingpin Al Capone and Sean Connery as Malone, the cop who teaches Ness how to beat the mob: shoot fast and shoot first.

The Godfather of Green Bay

The Godfather of Green Bay Review



In the vein of Sideways and Waiting for Guffman, The Godfather of Green Bay is a hilarious fish-out-of water story! Struggling stand-up comedian Joe Keegan faces the audition of a lifetime - a chance to perform on The Tonight Show! But first he must leave the big city and travel to rural Pine Lake, Wisconsin to win over the talent scout and his toughest audience yet. In the quirky style of Waiting for Guffman with a kickin' soundtrack by The BoDeans, this heart-warming crowd-pleaser featuring Lauren Holly (Dumb and Dumber), Tom Lennon (Reno 911!) and Tony Goldwyn(The Last Samurai) gets big laughs in its portrayal of small-town life and a dream that refuses to die. An all-star cast including: Lauren Holly (Dumb and Dumber) Tony Goldwyn (The Last Samurai) Tom Lennon (Reno 911) Mark Borchardt (American Movie) Pete Schwaba (TV's Comedy Central) Lance Barber (The Comeback)

Monk - Season Three

Monk - Season Three Review



TV’s most brilliant detective is back, and he’s ready to battle any crime… as long as it doesn’t involve germs, heights or other people! Emmy Award and Golden Globe winner Tony Shalhoub returns to DVD in all 16 third season episodes of the funny, fresh and quirky series, Monk. Rejoin Adrian Monk, the defective detective, who must overcome his obsessive-compulsive disorder and investigate the death of his wife, Trudy. Still hoping to be reinstated in the San Francisco Police Department, Monk continues to use his sharp intelligence, photographic memory and ever-present hand wipes to solve even the dirtiest cases. At his side are Captain Stottlemeyer (Ted Levine), Lieutenant Disher (Jason Gray-Stanford), Sharona Fleming (Bitty Schram) and newcomer Natalie Teeger (Traylor Howard), and together they take on some daunting opponents, including the Mafia, the FBI and a possibly murderous chimpanzee. Monk’s back on the case and better than ever in this hilarious third season, which includes five obsessive brand-new featurettes!

The Yakuza Papers: Battles Without Honor & Humanity (Complete Boxed Set)

The Yakuza Papers: Battles Without Honor & Humanity (Complete Boxed Set) Review



In the wake of the Bomb, ex-soldier Shozo Hirono [Bunta Sugawara] joins a Hiroshima yakuza gang, the Japanese equivalent of the Mafia–and then the shootings, slashings, betrayals, and scheming begin. Premiering a year after The Godfather, The Yakuza Papers also broke box office records and spawned sequels, but, in contrast, took a ruthlessly de-romanticized view of the underworld. Based on an actual gang boss's memoirs, The Yakuza Papers plunges the audience into a gritty, brutal, violent newsreel of a three-decade struggle for power of Shakespearean complexity, a nihilistic epic unlike any other.
