Strays Fetches Itself Onto Blu-ray, DVD, and Peacock

Following its theatrical release, audiences can bring Strays home on Blu-ray, DVD, Digital, or watch the film on Peacock. The Digital and Peacock releases are on October 6 while the physical media release is on October 10. Please remember to make sure that your four-legged friends are also in the room. What follows is my original review from this past August: Homeward Bound is a family-friendly adventure of animals finding their way back home but…

Strays: The Raunchy Homeward Bound

Homeward Bound is a family-friendly adventure of animals finding their way back home but Strays is the raunchy Homeward Bound. I know what you’re thinking. Doesn’t this film have talking animals? Well, yes, but it’s not a film that you should be bringing your younger children to see. Unless you want to answer questions about certain words or activities, please keep them at home! It might make you cool with the teenagers unless they’re embarrassed…

Aliens Abducted My Parents and Now I Kinda Feel Left Out – Sundance 2023

Aliens Abducted My Parents and Now I Kinda Feel Left Out is a comedy that could have very well been released by Amblin in the 1980s. I feel like there’s some sort of rule where everyone must try their hand at paying homage to Steven Spielberg at some point in their career. Or, at the very least, films paying homage to the films that inspired filmmakers to get into filmmaking. The Spielbergian sort of movies…

The Kids in the Hall Get Revived on Prime Video

Reboots are all the rave so it was only a matter of time before The Kids in the Hall TV series got revived in the digital era. While eight episodes will launch on May 13, only five episodes were made available for review. Suffice it to say, many of the sketches led to a lot of laughter. If you’re a comedy fan, the revival will be pure enjoyment. When you look at the reboots over…

Scoob! Offers A Contemporary Update

Scoob!, now available for audiences to purchase on Digital/VOD, offers a contemporary update that fans of the Scooby-Doo cartoons will enjoy. Everyone’s favorite animated dog lives to see another day.  Given the family appeal, it makes perfect sense for Warner Bros. to offer this film through VOD rather than wait until theaters to re-open.  In a perfect world, we’d be sharing our laughs and screams in a theater right now.  When it comes to animated…

SXSW 2020: Drunk Bus

A college graduate has to re-think his entire post-college plans in Drunk Bus after his girlfriend decides to leave him for an opportunity in New York City. Michael (Charlie Tahan) finds himself in somewhat of a pickle after his girlfriend up and left him.  When we first meet him, he’s driving the “drunk bus” on a college campus.  Night after night, it’s the same routine for Michael during the late shift.  Michael’s girlfriend is probably…

Booksmart arrives on Blu-ray, DVD

Olivia Wilde’s directorial debut starring Kaitlyn Dever and Beanie Feldstein, Booksmart, is now available for viewers to bring home on Blu-ray and DVD. Make no mistake that this film is an instant high school comedy classic.  There’s already been a lot to be said about how the film should have been marketed better.  I’m not going to get into any of that.  What I do hope is that the indie comedy is able to find…

SXSW 2019: Good Boys

Good Boys is a romp of a laugh riot as the film focuses on a trio of prepubescent teenagers who are about to attend their first kissing party. Max (Jacob Tremblay), Thor (Brady Noon), and Lucas (Keith L. Williams) are best friends in sixth grade.  Somewhere along the way, the trio picked up “The Beanbag Boys” and the name stuck.  They aren’t without the typical bullying in school.  Much like other high school films, they’re…

SXSW 2019: Booksmart

With a strong focus on female friendship, Olivia Wilde’s directorial debut, Booksmart, is the next great classic high school comedy. It’s very easy to see the influence of a filmmaker like Amy Heckerling in watching this film.  She’s the filmmaker who directed both Fast Times at Ridgemont High and Clueless.  These two films inspired a generation and Booksmart is sure to follow. Both Amy (Kaitlyn Dever) and Molly (Beanie Feldstein) may be best friends but they’re…

SXSW 2019: Extra Ordinary

Extra Ordinary is a wildly fun supernatural comedy with just a side of romance thrown in when it comes to this film set in a rural area of Ireland. It’s always fun when films find a fun way to combine comedy with the supernatural.  Anytime a film deals with the supernatural, it can go one of two ways.  In the instance of this film, filmmakers Mike Ahern and Enda Loughman aim to have fun. There’s…
