SUNSET [BLU-RAY] (1988): "Despite a good cast, Sunset largely falls flat. It tries to embrace too many genres and it never gets into a groove." Starring Bruce Willis, James Garner. Alliance, $24.99, 6/23/2026.
SCREAM 4 (2026 REMASTER) [BLU-RAY] (2011): "For reasons probably due more to flagging careers than to creative inspiration, a successful horror franchise came back to life with Scream 4. The film didn't find much of an audience and it lacked the zing and power to inspire 'cult classic' affection." Starring Neve Campbell, Courteney Cox. Lionsgate, $42.99, 6/9/2026.
I KNOW WHAT YOU DID LAST SUMMER: THE COMPLETE SERIES [BLU-RAY] (2021): "With more than six hours at its disposal, the I Know What You Did Last Summer TV series would seem like it should offer a better exploration of characters than the movie versions did. Instead, this take on Summer tends to move slowly and only occasionally spark intrigue." Starring Madison Iseman, Brianne Tju. Sony, $28.99, 6/23/2026.
HIGHEST 2 LOWEST [4K UHD] (2025): "For better or for worse, Spike Lee puts his own stamp on Highest 2 Lowest, a remake of an Akira Kurosawa flick. Like many Lee movies, the end product shows glimmers but remains too erratic and self-indulgent to fully click." Starring Denzel Washington, Jeffrey Wright. A24, $35.00, 4/28/2026.
50 FIRST DATES [4K UHD] (2004): "A surprisingly sweet and charming piece, 50 First Dates falters at times, but remains mostly solid. The film melds a few genres fairly smoothly and seems amusing and likable." Starring Adam Sandler, Drew Barrymore. Sony, $34.98. 6/23/2026.
DIFFICULT PEOPLE: THE COMPLETE FIRST SEASON [BLU-RAY] (2015): "Though I worried it would become one-note, Season One of Difficult People manages enough variety to succeed. It comes with lots of laughs and becomes a cynical delight." Starring Julie Klausner, Billy Eichner. Universal, $42.99, 6/16/2026.
