MONEYBALL [4K UHD] (2011): "Part drama, part propaganda, Moneyball entertains despite its flaws. I’m not wild about its factual liberties and ham-fisted ways, but with a talented cast and a fun premise, the movie works reasonably well." Starring Brad Pitt, Jonah Hill. Sony, $34.99. 4/28/2026.
MURDER ON THE ORIENT EXPRESS [4K UHD] (1974): "A classic murder mystery told in a fine manner, Murder on the Orient Express provides a satisfying experience. The movie moves briskly and uses its all-star cast well to create an engaging and entertaining throwback." Starring Albert Finney, Martin Balsam. Kino Lorber, $39.95, 9/24/2024.
GREENLAND 2: MIGRATION [BLU-RAY] (2026): "Although Greenland became a pleasant surprise in 2020, its sequel seems more ordinary. Greenland 2: Migration delivers a watchable but ordinary and lackluster extension of the first film." Starring Gerard Butler, Morena Baccarin. Lionsgate, $29.99, 3/31/2026.
GET OUT [4K UHD] (2017): "Never would I expect comedian Jordan Peele to make his directorial debut with a horror tale, and the film’s high quality becomes an even bigger surprise. Get Out delivers a rich, clever and entertaining tale that allow it to become much better than the usual genre flick." Starring Daniel Kaluuya, Allison Williams. Universal, $22.98, 9/12/2017.
THE SUBSTITUTE [BLU-RAY] (1996): "Despite its unusual high school setting, The Substitute adds up to little more than a mediocre action thriller. It comes with too few strengths to develop into an effective tale." Starring Tom Berenger, Ernie Hudson. Vestron, $39.97, 3/17/2026.
THIS IS THE NIGHT [BLU-RAY] (1932): "Noteworthy mainly as Cary Grant’s film debut, This Is the Night manages reasonable entertainment value in its own right. Though the movie does nothing to really excel, it becomes an amusing little farce." Starring Lili Damita, Charles Ruggles. MGM, $21.98, 3/31/2026.
