Mat Brewster

Because it features one of the most tense, carefully crafted scenes in all of cinema.

Apologies for those who love their rednecked water-fowl, and foul-mouthed animated spies.

Joseph Gordon-Levitt attempts to deal with how fantasy worlds collide with our real ones, causing untold problems and unhappiness.

I like Gordon-Levitt a good deal, and it’s impossible not to watch Scarlett Johansson in anything she does.

The movie is good and representative of this classic period of Hollywood filmmaking.

It looks to be an intense, violent, really good bit of cinema.

It’s compelling stuff that’s both fun thrilling and meaningful.

Though a bit dated and terribly inaccurate, it is a joy to watch and is immensely entertaining.

A recommendation from Scorsese and the Criterion people makes this collection an easy choice.

The film comes highly recommended.

A very nicely priced set of a really wonderful show.

A pick to be thankful for.

A straight-up classic Tom Baker-era Who.

A pretty grand thing when you get down to it.

To say that when it came out on DVD it would be my Pick of the Week would be putting it exactly.

It’s good, but not nearly good enough.

A terrific bit of television.

It stands right up there with my all-time favorites.

Quite charming in its own way.

Spiral Season 2 is fantastic television.

A classic American film about classic Americans gets the nod.

A truly remarkable bit of history.

Despite quite a few flaws, The Johan Falk Trilogy creates some rather enjoyable popcorn viewing.

This is certainly not my most glowing Pick ever.

Unfortunately, the filmmakers decided to go for carnage and gore, and the results are as dull as can be.

If you like b-grade vampire movies, this one’s pretty well done.

This isn’t a show-off disk, unless by showing off one means presenting high-definition celebrity nudity.

It’s probably my favorite Christmas movie ever.

While it embraces the horror genre, it manages to rise above it as well and present itself as a masterful work of art.

Despite my inability to fall in love with all things Joss, I’m very excited about his take on this Shakespearian comedy.

I’d put it in league with something like Monk or Moonlighting.

There’s no picks like double-dips.

I liked the first half of Series 7 much more than the latter half.

How could it not be?

To be sure, Homeland: Season 2 is good television.

A wonderful portrayal of these characters and of life.

A fascinating bit of Who history.

Sofia Coppola has proven herself to be a true auteur, a director with a clear and concise vision.

Now and again, I like to throw on some goofy slasher flicks and relive memories through hundreds of pointless, over-the-top violence.

Whatever the reason, there is a ton of stuff coming out for lovers of all things boob tube.

Ought to be seen by anyone who is interested in what the medium can do and certainly is a must-see for all mystery fans.

Critical reception has been mostly poor and it didn’t fair any better at the box office, but I’m still willing to give it a shot.

A great introduction to Pertwee’s Doctor.

Amour seems much more accessible than the rest of Haneke’s work and I suspect I’ll be watching it soon

The Mindy Project is very silly and has not a inch of real depth but it’s tons of fun.

Thanks, Technology, for making me interested in films like The Sapphires.

You could call it the Swedish “The Closer” if you wanted.

I found myself wishing each episode was done by about the halfway point.

I’m ready to let Cinemax show me they can make good quality original programming just like their sister channel.
