Power Rangers Samurai: Vol. 4
In these, the thirteenth through sixteenth episodes of Power Rangers Samurai (which is itself the eighteenth season in Saban’s Power Rangers franchise), we at last meet the energetic but conspicuously long-absent Antonio of the series’ title sequence. Although a close childhood friend of Red Ranger Jayden, Antonio is fundamentally not like the others. Aside from [...]
Cyberstalker
Cyberstalker is about a young woman named Aiden (Mischa Barton), who has been the target of an obsessed man on the internet for over 13 years. The man killed her parents and Aiden has been in hiding under a false name ever since, but a picture of one of her paintings has led him back [...]
Arbitrage
At one point in Nicholas Jarecki’s film Arbitrage, Richard Gere’s hedge fund big wig, Robert Miller, is asked if he honestly thinks money is going to solve the problems he has created for himself, to which he responds “What else is there?” The line is spoken with a beautiful air of genuine, nuanced incredulity, and [...]
Power Rangers Super Samurai: The Complete Season
The last few releases of Saban’s Power Rangers Samurai and Super Samurai from Lionsgate have found me complaining here, at length, about a release schedule so broken that it seemed like Lionsgate may have been actively trying to discourage the Power Rangers fan base from purchasing their product. But for the first time since their [...]
The Ghostmaker
Lionsgate’s horror slate hasn’t been all that impressive lately, and unfortunately this trend continues with The Ghostmaker. Originally titled Box of Shadows, the film was picked up by Lionsgate for distribution directly to DVD, and it does feature an intriguing concept. This automatically puts it on a higher level than previous releases from this year [...]
Hirokin: The Last Samurai
One parts Star Wars and one parts Dune are but a few of the ingredients that created Alejo Mo-Sun’s Hirokin: The Last Samurai, a film that is very much less than the sum of its parts. The film takes place in the far future, on a desert planet, where humans have taken over and enslaved [...]

Triad Wars (Fatal Move) Review
A spiritual sequel to Wilson Yip’s 2005 martial arts film Killzone (Sha Po Lang), Dennis Law’s Triad Wars (Fatal Move in Hong Kong) is a solid film, that manages to interweave the great action of kung fu films, great gunplay and the plot and gritty tone of a gangster film. Sammo Hung and Simon Yam [...]
Power Rangers Samurai: Christmas Together, Friends Forever
Lionsgate’s bizarre home video release schedule for Power Rangers Samurai persists with the October 16, 2012 release of Christmas Together, Friends Forever, the second of two releases in a row compiling three holiday-themed episodes of Power Rangers with a single Samurai episode at its core. Of course, for as much I’ve complained about this bonkers [...]
Power Rangers Samurai: Monster Bash
Lionsgate Entertainment’s scatterbrained home video release schedule for Power Rangers Samurai continues in their latest Rangers title, Monster Bash, coming to DVD September 11, 2012. Lionsgate previously offered up the first eight of Samurai‘s 23 episodes in two DVD volumes in June of this year. Two months later, they pushed out the first eight episodes [...]
