Blu-ray Review: The Meg

There’s a B-movie hokeyness to the plot and characters that comes across as endearing thanks to a mostly solid cast. Statham works as the no-nonsense lead, Bingbing as the capable love interest, Wilson as the dot-com billionaire and Cliff Curtis as the sorta comic relief guy.

Blu-ray Review: Blackkklansman

Blackkklansman is a very well-acted film, and that starts at the top. Driver has already had some strong performances in the past, but the emergence of Washington is critical to the movie’s success.

Blu-ray Review: Ocean’s 8

Chemistry was always key to the previous trilogy’s success, and the cast here does a nice job of matching the easy charm and humour that dripped from Clooney and Pitt.

Nothing is ever taken too seriously and yet they never come across as anything less than prepared and capable.

Blu-ray Review: Tag

There’s a lot of good physical comedy in Tag as the guys take some hellacious falls and blows in their ongoing attempt to not be it.
