SNAKES ON A PLANE: COLLECTOR'S EDITION [BLU-RAY] (2006): "While it didn’t turn out to be the hit some expected, Snakes on a Plane offers reasonable fun. No one will confuse it for great filmmaking, but it provides the expected level of cheesy entertainment." Starring Samuel L. Jackson, Julianna Margulies. Arrow, $39.95, 1/20/2026.

TOM AND JERRY: THE GOLDEN ERA ANTHOLOGY [BLU-RAY] (1940-1958): "Across 114 shorts created from 1940 to 1958, Tom and Jerry became legendary animated characters, and this Golden Era Anthology amasses all of those cartoons in one place. Of course, some of the reels work better than others, but fans should expect a lot of quality entertainment. Starring Lillian Randolph, Billy Bletcher. Warner, $59.99, 12/2/2025.">

UNDER SIEGE: COLLECTOR'S EDITION [4K UHD] (1992): "With Under Siege, we get arguably the best film of Steven Seagal’s career. Granted, that exists as the definition of ‘faint praise’, but the movie nonetheless becomes a pretty solid Die Hard wannabe despite the weaknesses of its lead actor." Starring Steven Seagal, Tommy Lee Jones. Arrow, $49.95, 1/6/2026.

SILVER RIVER [BLU-RAY] (1948): "Even in a state of frequent inebriation, Errol Flynn still musters reasonable charisma in Silver River, and he enjoys good chemistry with leading lady Ann Sheridan. However, the story seems rambling and doesn’t go much of anywhere." Starring Errol Flynn, Ann Sheridan. Warner, $21.99, 12/9/2025.

HEARTS OF DARKNESS: A FILMMAKER'S APOCALYPSE [4K UHD] (1991): "An unusually provocative 'making of' documentary, Hearts of Darkness: A Filmmaker’s Apocalypse provides a ringside view of a troubled and difficult production. With greater access than expected, we get to see the good, the bad, and the really ugly." Starring Francis Ford Coppola, Martin Sheen. Sony, $29.99, 12/9/2025.

I LOVE MELVIN [BLU-RAY] (1953): "A way for Donald O’Connor and Debbie Reynolds to capitalize on the prior year’s classic Singin’ in the Rain, I Love Melvin holds up well in its own right. With a light tone, some good laughs and a charming pair of leads, the film becomes a delight." Starring Debbie Reynolds, Donald O'Connor. Warner, $21.99, 12/16/2025.
