THE BREAKFAST CLUB: CRITERION COLLECTION [4K UHD] (1985): "While The Breakfast Club lacks the relevance it boasted for me when it hit in 1985, it still has its moments. I could live without all the melodrama, but there’s enough good material here to make it interesting." Starring Molly Ringwald, Judd Nelson. Criterion, $49.95, 11/4/2025.

DEF LEPPARD: DIAMOND STAR HEROES LIVE IN SHEFFIELD [4K UHD] (2023): "In their hometown and comfortable in a massive venue, Diamond Star Heroes Live From Sheffield gives us a pretty solid stadium concert from Def Leppard. We hear most of the band’s hits and the show gives us a good look at what made them so popular." Starring Def Leppard. Mercury, $34.98, 11/21/2025.

SPINAL TAP II: THE END CONTINUES [BLU-RAY] (2025): "41 years after the original movie, Spinal Tap II: The End Continues offers a depressingly awful reprise. With all of the prior flick’s core but none of its cleverness or wit, the sequel winds up as a massive blemish on their legacy." Starring Christopher Guest, Michael McKean, Harry Shearer. Decal, $19.98, 11/11/2025."

X: THE X TRILOGY [BLU-RAY] (2022): "A mix of Boogie Nights and Texas Chainsaw Massacre, X becomes a dull snoozefest. The film wears its pretensions on its sleeve and never becomes anything even vaguely compelling." Starring Mia Goth, Jenna Ortega. A24, $85.00, 10/21/2025.

COYOTES [BLU-RAY] (2025): "A mix of comedy and horror, Coyotes satisfies in neither regard. Too much of the film seems unsure where it wants to go and the end product lacks punch." Starring Justin Long, Kate Bosworth. Decal, $29.98, 11/25/2025.

MOANA 2 [BLU-RAY] (2024): "A massive box office hit, Moana 2 becomes watchable but wholly mediocre. While lovely to look at, it feels underwhelming in all other ways." Starring Auliʻi Cravalho, Dwayne Johnson. Disney, $40.99, 3/18/2025.
