Video Views Extra: New Review of an Older Movie

Run Time: 1:31
U.S. Home Release Date: 2024-02-29
MPAA Rating: "R" (Violence, Gore, Sexual Content)
Genre: Comedy
Director: John Landis
Cast: Simon Pegg, Andy Serkis, Isla Fisher, Jessica Hynes, Tom Wilkinson, Tim Curry, David Hayman, Ronnie Corbett

Fans of the Simon Pegg/Edgar Wright collaborations may find the material to be engaging but there is little to convince contemporary viewers that this is a forgotten gem.

U.S. Home Release Date: 2023-09-28
MPAA Rating: "R" (Violence, Profanity, Nudity, Sexual Content)
Genre: Drama/Thriller
Director: Henry Bean
Cast: Ryan Gosling, Billy Zane, Theresa Russell, Summer Phoenix

An interesting film for the things it does right but, by the time the end credits rolled, I was unable to fight back a sense of frustration with its limitations.

One of those films that, despite its overt shoddiness, presents an opportunity to absorb something supremely silly without having to devote much attention to the proceedings.

Run Time: 1:30
U.S. Home Release Date: 2024-01-23
MPAA Rating: "NR" (Profanity)
Genre: Documentary
Director: Seth Porges, Chris Charles Scott
Cast: John Hodgman, Bill Benneyan, Jim DeSaye, Daron Fitch, Joe Hession, Mark Johnson, Chris Gethard, Bob Krahulik

The kind of nostalgia-bait that might cause a pause if one was to stumble upon it while channel surfing.

Run Time: 1:24
U.S. Home Release Date: 2024-02-19
MPAA Rating: "R" (Violence, Nudity)
Genre: Documentary/Horror
Director: Andrew J. Keuhn
Cast: Nancy Allen, Donald Pleasence

In the 21st century, this is a throw-away but what it offered at the time of its release was substantial.

Run Time: 1:36
U.S. Home Release Date: 2023-03-17
MPAA Rating: "NR" (Profanity, Violence)
Genre: Thriller
Director: Paul Roland
Cast: Paul Roland, Joseph Griffin, Brittany Lewis, Francis Cronin, Jennifer Massey, Kenan Jerome Floyd, Nelson Ritthaler

Plays like part neo-noir thriller and part morality play, with director Roland making the most of his micro budget to give the movie a distinctive look.

It takes over an hour before "Amsterdam" decides what it wants to be and, by that time, viewers may be exasperated by the film’s quirkiness and exhausted by its meandering storyline.

Run Time: 1:40
U.S. Home Release Date: 2022-09-13
MPAA Rating: "PG"
Genre: Animated/Action
Director: Angus MacLane
Cast: Chris Evans, Keke Palmer, Peter Sohn, Taika Waititi, Dale Soules, James Brolin

It features enough eye candy to keep most kids engaged and boasts just enough heft that adults won’t spend 100 minutes looking at their watches.

Run Time: 1:32
U.S. Home Release Date: 2022-09-06
MPAA Rating: "PG"
Genre: Drama/Comedy
Director: Anthony Fabian
Cast: Lesley Manville, Jason Isaacs, Anna Chancellor, Rose Williams, Lucas Bravo, Alba Baptista, Isabelle Huppert, Lambert Wilson, Ellen Thomas

Matches the tone and aesthetic of one of those feel-good, highbrow art house films that were popular during the 1990s and 2000s.

Run Time: 1:44
U.S. Home Release Date: 2022-12-13
MPAA Rating: "PG-13" (Profanity)
Genre: Romance/Comedy
Director: Ol Parker
Cast: George Clooney, Julia Roberts, Kaitlyn Dever, Maxime Bouttier, Billie Lourd, Lucas Bravo

Although this features high wattage stars, it represents a curiously anachronistic attempt at escapist fare.
