Air Force One marked its 25th anniversary and Sony is celebrating by releasing the film on a 4K Ultra HD Limited Edition SteelBook. Technically speaking, this release is not a special anniversary edition. That being said, there is a key difference from the previous 4K UHD release in 2020. This edition features Dolby Vision whereas the previous version does not. Aside from minor changes, what follows below is my original review from 2020: Air Force…

Mystery Men is about a year and a half away from marking its 25th anniversary but Kino Lorber recently released the film on 4K UHD. It’s kind of weird.

The Layover is a hot mess from start to finish and so full of cliches but one can’t help from watching it. Hornsby and Krall have written for It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia but this film doesn’t live up to even that sitcom’s standards. These women are among of the most poorly-written female characters that I’ve ever seen. You almost have to feel bad for Kate Upton after her being cast in The Other Woman. …
