Here are our latest reviews of films on DVD.
Pre-2022 Film Reviews
Arrival (2016)
Dan Stalcup @ The Goods: Film Reviews
- Excerpt: Arrival is a bit too uneven in its narrative balance and sloppy in its plotting to rise into a masterpiece, but it’s Villeneuve’s best of his first eight films.
Blade Runner (1982)
Dan Stalcup @ The Goods: Film Reviews
- Excerpt: Blade Runner is one of the canonical cyberpunk texts of any medium: equal parts dystopian tech-tastrophe and criminal underworld.
Ennio (2021)
- Excerpt: From first trumpet to cinematic legend
The Greatest Showman (2017)
Dan Stalcup @ The Goods: Film Reviews
- Excerpt: It’s in my nature to forgive most sins of a musical that makes me sit up and notice how much fun it’s having.
Return of the Jedi (1983)
Sicario (2015)
Dan Stalcup @ The Goods: Film Reviews
- Excerpt: Sicario is really terrific as a thriller qua thriller… It’s also just too obvious in its messaging and cynical in its spirit for me to ever get really invested in it.
