National Treasure: Book of Secrets: Collector’s Edition
May 20, 2008
The first National Treasure film (2004) was something of a pleasant surprise – an inoffensive action/adventure film for the entire family that proved to be a bonafide box office hit. It also gave Nicolas Cage a much needed boost after a string of lackluster...

The Manchurian Candidate
June 26, 2005
Remaking classic movies is almost always a bad idea and usually done for all the wrong reasons. Case in point: Gus Van Sant’s much-maligned misfire, Psycho (1998). There is a reason why these movies are so highly regarded—they don’t need to be remade....
