| Watchmen | "
...it's hard not to watch every minute of it, even if 215 such minutes is a long haul by anybody's watch. (The Ultimate Cut)" Posted Nov 7, 2009 11:13 AM PST | John J. Puccio, DVDTown.com |

| Brüno | "
A brilliantly rude, deliriously insane closeted sexual politics on steroids mockumentary. Boasting Bruno as the anointed White Obama, waxed rectums, defense moves against multi-hued dildos, and Ron Paul as peeved object of erotic desire." Posted Nov 7, 2009 09:30 AM PST | Prairie Miller, NewsBlaze |
Fresh 3.5/5
| Up | "
Up isn't perfect, but it's certainly a step back in the right direction for Pixar." Posted Nov 7, 2009 07:54 AM PST | Mike Long, DVDSleuth. DVDSleuth.com |

| The Taking of Pelham 1 2 3 | "
The movie might leave audiences feeling a lot like hostages themselves, at the hands of the director. Who seems to have a bit of a contact high with all the grating noise, grit and funk of runaway trains. Somebody needed to put the brakes on this guy too."

| Thirst | "
This big screen guzzler has much to advise about the art of vampiring, including more efficient corpse feasting by cutting the feet of your human dispensers off at the ankles and draining them over the bathtub." Posted Nov 6, 2009 05:35 PM PST | Prairie Miller, NewsBlaze |

| The Men Who Stare at Goats | "
Read my mind: The Men Who Stare at Goats is a waste of time." Posted Nov 6, 2009 01:52 PM PST | Robert Cashill, Popdose |

| National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation | "
John Hughes, who could be a genius one minute and a washout the next, prominently reveals both sides of his talent. (Blu-ray 20th Anniversary Ultimate Collector's Edition)" Posted Nov 6, 2009 10:45 AM PST | John J. Puccio, DVDTown.com |

| Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs | "
Extras are predictably numerous, including a filmmaker commentary, three featurettes and a good-sized handful of Fox Movie Channel pieces on the movie." Posted Nov 6, 2009 10:39 AM PST | Brian Webster, Apollo Guide |

Ugly, and that's the truth!" Posted Nov 6, 2009 04:58 AM PST | Kam Williams, The Sly Fox |

| Pray the Devil Back to Hell | "
A glorious tribute to a bi-partisan band of pacifist females who succeeded where the Liberian government and UN intervention had failed." Posted Nov 6, 2009 04:55 AM PST | Kam Williams, The Sly Fox |
Rotten 2.5/5
| Blood: The Last Vampire | "
Blood: The Last Vampire could have been epic. I can't say that it sucks because for the most part it was entertaining ... in an in-one-ear and out-the-other kind of way." Posted Nov 5, 2009 01:28 PM PST | Uncle Creepy, Dread Central |
Fresh 4/5
| Orphan | "
[Blu-Ray Review] Orphan is a very decent movie in it's own right, apart from being a tense, eerie little horror film specifically. It doesn't fail to entertain." Posted Nov 5, 2009 01:18 PM PST | Uncle Creepy, Dread Central |

An over-indulgence in vulgarity of no redeeming social value." Posted Nov 5, 2009 11:51 AM PST | Kam Williams, The Sly Fox |

| It's a Wonderful Life | "
I understand the concern some people may have about buying a high-definition edition of an old B&W film. I can say without hesitation, I'd do it. (Blu-ray Edition)" Posted Nov 5, 2009 11:14 AM PST | John J. Puccio, DVDTown.com |

A superb, pull-no-punches survey of the maverick's films for Columbia Pictures." Posted Nov 5, 2009 05:49 AM PST | Robert Cashill, Popdose |

| Z | "
"Z" is one of those template movies, a fact-based political thriller that set the standard." Posted Nov 5, 2009 05:48 AM PST | Robert Cashill, Popdose |

...people either like Forrest or shun him; there's no in between. Same with the movie. (Blu-ray Edition)" Posted Nov 4, 2009 11:13 AM PST | John J. Puccio, DVDTown.com |
Fresh 3.5/5
| The Taking of Pelham 1 2 3 | "
I know that this would never happen, but it would have been great if the trailer for The Taking of Pelham 1 2 3 would have stated, "This movie is better than it looks."" Posted Nov 4, 2009 07:06 AM PST | Mike Long, DVDSleuth. DVDSleuth.com |

| Gravestoned | "
Though "Gravestoned" falls short in the horror and hilarity departments, it isn't awful and wasn't painful to watch, thankfully." Posted Nov 3, 2009 05:50 PM PST | Fr. Chris Carpenter, Movie Dearest |

| Lost - The Complete Fifth Season | "
The DVD box blurb accurately describes it as 'television's most addictive and creative series.' DVD dust jackets usually tell filthy lies . . . but not in this case." Posted Nov 3, 2009 06:30 AM PST | James O'Ehley, Sci-Fi Movie Page |

| Star Trek | "
Ironically this 'new' Trek feels a lot more like 'old' Trek on DVD than it did in the cinemas . . ." Posted Nov 3, 2009 05:48 AM PST | James O'Ehley, Sci-Fi Movie Page |
