With another Oscars in the books, here comes a reminder that we boast a page that includes reviews of each Best Picture winner from Wings through One Battle After Another. Give it a look!

THE BEATLES: EVOLVER 62 [BLU-RAY] (2025): "As a look at the Beatles during a crucial year in their history, Evolver 62 becomes an efficient overview. Expert Mark Lewisohn covers the details in a fast-paced and engaging manner." Starring Mark Lewisohn. Liverpool West, $29.99, 2/10/2026.

BLOWN AWAY [4K UHD] (1994): "With a quality cast and a decent premise, Blown Away feels like it should deliver a solid thriller. Instead, it comes as an awkward combination of a sluggish plot and borderline campy drama." Starring Jeff Bridges, Tommy Lee Jones. Kino Lorber, $29.99, 7/2/2024.

THE HOUSEMAID [BLU-RAY] (2025): "Released around Christmas, The Housemaid became a ‘counter-programming’ hit, as no one thinks of the holidays as a logical occasion for sex-related thrillers. Though it runs a little long, the movie still becomes a fairly involving little narrative, with plenty of twists along the way." Starring Sydney Sweeney, Amanda Seyfried. Lionsgate, $29.99, 3/17/2026.

OUT OF AFRICA [4K UHD] (1985): "While I can't whole-heartedly recommend Out Of Africa, I can't really steer you away from it either. No, the film doesn't do a lot for me, but I can understand why a lot of others like it and why it became so successful." Starring Meryl Streep, Robert Redford. Universal, $19.98, 11/18/2025.

LOONEY TUNES COLLECTOR'S VAULT VOLUME 2 [BLU-RAY] (1935-1963): "With 50 shorts across 28 years, we get ups and downs via Looney Tunes Collector’s Vault Volume 2. However, we find many more good cartoons than clunkers, so this turns into a largely amusing set." Starring Mel Blanc. Warner, $27.99, 3/24/2026.

THE STING [4K UHD] (1973): "The Sting delivers a solidly entertaining little film. It aspires to be nothing more than a sassy romp and it succeeds on all counts." Starring Paul Newman, Robert Redford. Universal, $19.98, 5/18/2021.
