THE REBOUND, Great for V-Day (Video Review)

  It’s not every film that you find one of the most beautiful women in the world performing for you on Blu-ray.  Catherine Zeta-Jones in my estimation is by far the epitome of grace, charm, emotion and elegance and in The Rebound you’ll see why.  Now available in time for Valentines Day at stores and […]

THE DOUBLE, A Brain Teaser on Blu-ray

  Although a little lingering at times, The Double, now on Blu-ray/DVD still entertains.  The CIA spy thriller plays a game of cat and mouse that’s sure to please those that like good brain stimulation. Well acted by Richard Gere and Topher Grace it’s also a sweet treat for the ladies.
