November has passed the mid-point, and in the US, Thanksgiving will arrive soon. Go examine our special holiday page to get prepared!

MARY [BLU-RAY] (2019): "Given the quality of its lead cast, Mary sets up expectations for a quality project. Alas, it dashes those hopes to become a lackluster, trite stab at psychological horror." Starring Gary Oldman, Emily Mortimer. RLJ Entertainment, $29.97, 11/26/2019.

OMEN: THE FINAL CONFLICT [BLU-RAY] (1981): "After The Final Conflict, the Omen franchise went dormant for a decade, and I can’t complain about that lull. Conflict wraps up the original trilogy with a yawn." Starring Sam Neill, Rossano Brazzi. Fox, $14.98, 10/7/2008.

ROBOCOP: LIMITED EDITION [BLU-RAY] (1987): "Audiences found a very pleasant surprise with Robocop in 1987, and the movie remains a winner. This 2-disc 'Limited Edition' turns into the finest release to date." Starring Paul Weller, Nancy Allen. Arrow, $49.95, 11/26/2019.

PIRATES! BAND OF MISFITS [BLU-RAY 3D] (1987): "Subversive but not forced, the flick comes jampacked with one funny moment after another. The 3D version adds spark to the visual proceedings and gives the flick extra charge." Starring Hugh Grant, Jeremy Piven. Sony, $26.99, 8/28/2012.

47 METERS DOWN: UNCAGED [BLU-RAY] (2019): "A shark attack movie with no thrills or drama, 47 Meters Down: Uncaged fails in all possible ways. Idiotic, boring and ridiculous, it comes with zero entertainment value." Starring Sophie Nélisse, Corinne Foxx. Lionsgate, $39.99, 11/12/2019.

10 MINUTES GONE [BLU-RAY] (2019): "No one expects much from cheap direct-to-video thrillers, but 10 Minutes Gone can’t even live up to those reduced hopes. The movie fails on all possible levels." Starring Michael Chiklis, Bruce Willis. Lionsgate, $24.99, 10/29/2019.
