MERCY [BLU-RAY] (2026): "Although Mercy attempts a creative way to tell a detective story, it doesn’t hit the mark. Instead, the end product feels like a bunch of gimmicks in search of tension and excitement." Starring Chris Pratt, Rebecca Ferguson. MGM, $31.99, 4/7/2026.

THE MAN WHO CAME TO DINNER [BLU-RAY] (1941): "Though it occasionally shows its roots as a stage production, The Man Who Came to Dinner compensates for these shortcomings. With some vibrant performances and witty banter, the movie keeps us amused." Starring Bette Davis, Ann Sheridan. Warner, $21.99, 3/31/2026.

DIE MY LOVE [BLU-RAY] (2025): "If viewers hope to get an honest look at the challenges of new motherhood, they won’t find it from the overbaked Die My Love. The movie takes its subject matter to such a cartoony extreme that it becomes a campy waste of talent." Starring Jennifer Lawrence, Robert Pattinson. Mubi, $42.98, 4/21/2026.

DREAM EATER [BLU-RAY] (2025): "Yet another entry in the ‘found footage’ genre of horror films, Dream Eater doesn’t use the format well. That said, it seems like it would flop as a more traditional movie as well thanks to clumsy storytelling and mediocre performances." Starring Mallory Drumm, Alex Lee Williams. Alliance, $37.99, 3/31/2026.

SOLDIER: COLLECTOR'S EDITION [4K UHD] (1998): "Though it comes with appealing production design and a good cast, Soldier seems mediocre at best otherwise. Kurt Russell tries his best to elevate his emotionally disconnected warrior but too much of the film feels derivative and without flair for it to really succeed." Starring Kurt Russell, Jason Scott Lee. Arrow, $49.95, 4/28/2026.

TEA AND SYMPATHY [BLU-RAY] (1956): "With Tea and Sympathy, we get a look at the damage that can be inflicted on folks who don’t quite fit social norms. While the theme holds up, the execution feels feeble and dated." Starring Deborah Kerr, John Kerr. Warner, $21.99, 3/31/2026.
