#REVIEW: “LADY AND THE TRAMP” BLU-RAY COMBO PACK MULTI-SCREEN EDITION
It literally has been years since we've seen the classic LADY AND THE TRAMP, but we're thrilled we got a chance to reconnect with it once again in its Blu-ray Combo Pack Multi-Screen Edition. As a child we didn't realize how visceral a moviegoing experience the Film was, but seeing it again now brought back all those fond memories and struck a chord even more emotionally now in our adult years.
The unlikely romantic tale centering on English Spaniel named Lady (Barbara Luddy) and a stray ...

#REVIEW: “RED SPARROW”
Review by Siobhán Rich for Mr. Will Wong
When the Trailer for Francis Lawrence’s Red Sparrow first dropped, many thought “Wow, this looks like the Black Widow Movie we’ve all been waiting for.”. Before we get any further, we need to clarify right here for those who haven't read the 2013 Jason Matthews Novel on which this is based, this is NOT Black Widow and bears little resemblance to that Comic Book character. The repeated scenes of rape and graphic torture ensure we know ...

#REVIEW: “EVERY DAY”
Review by Justin Waldman for Mr. Will Wong
From the Director of The Vow and the Screenwriter of Me and Earl and the Dying Girl comes a Teen-Romance that on paper looks like a W Network Movie of the Week, but surprisingly is better than anyone could’ve expected. Every Day is The Notebook meets Invasion of the Body Snatchers if the latter were a little more Freaky Friday. Sucsy creates a world that truly is engaging and thought-provoking. The Film is the perfect Rom-Com that should’ve been ...
