Supergirl: Season 4 Hits Blu-ray, DVD

Supergirl: Season 4 is now available for fans to bring home on Blu-ray and DVD ahead of the fifth season premiere on the CW. If there’s one thing to say about season four, it’s that the season also personifies what it means to represent truth, justice, and the American Way.  This season certainly wasn’t afraid to get down and dirty by offering political commentary.  Ben Lockwood’s Agent Liberty and his Children of Liberty are no…

Shazam arrives on Blu-ray, DVD

Shazam! arrives onto Blu-ray and DVD today a few months after the Zachary Levi-starring DC installment was released into theaters. The critically acclaimed film did over three times its budget at the box office.  After a few failures for DC, they were in need of its.  I think what makes this particular film work so well is the studio went outside the box.  This character certainly isn’t the first that people usually think of when…

Shazam! is A Fun Superhero Movie

Shazam! may not exactly be a campy superhero movie but once the action gets started, it’s clear that everybody is having a fun time.

Aquaman Rises From The Depths

It wouldn’t be unfair to say that Aquaman is a step up from Justice League because there are many films that could qualify as such. As far as the credits go, there’s a mid-credits scene but there’s no scene at the very end of the credits. We don’t immediately meet Arthur Curry (Jason Momoa).  We go back to the beginning when Atlanna (Nicole Kidman) washes ashore, where she’s rescued by Tom Curry (Temuera Morrison).  This leads…
