...Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest (Blu-ray)
Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest will be referred to as Pirates 2 for the rest of this review for sake of brevity. For the approximately 48 people left in North America that have yet to see this film, I’ll spend the next couple of paragraphs discussing my problems with the film. Oh sure, I enjoyed it, but unlike the first, the second is a bit more flawed.
The first was that the ...

We know he is unscrupulous as he cheats a grieving family out a very rare edition of Don Quixote. Corso is hired to authenticate a copy of a very rare occult work, The Nine Gates of the Kingdom of Shadows, by ...
Restless Natives
Restless Natives is a Scottish film from the mid-80’s about a couple of youth that decide to make something of themselves by beginning to rob tourist busses in the highlands. It should be noted that the economic situation at the time was not so great, so the notion of a couple of locals making good went over better than it would today. It’s much a much different film that would be made now.
As a ...
