Other shows recently reviewed include:  iCarly: Season Two, Volume Two, Napoleon & Love, and The Guild: Season Four.  Want more?  Check out all of the TV on DVD reviews in the DVDTalk database.

This week the DVD Savant has a number of new reviews and articles including: Soylent Green - Charlton Heston and Edward G. Robinson suffer in the overpopulated jungle of New York City, where normal food has become extinct and the Soylent Corporation serves up protein in little colored wafers. Definitely one of the better ecological disaster pictures; The Wild, Wild Planet - The best of the '60s Italo space operas is a fun diversion, even if it looks held together with duct tape and piano wire; and Embodiment of Evil - Just when you thought Coffin Joe was safely locked away, he comes back to once again torture and slaughter! The Brazilian boogeyman returns to finish his Zé do Caixão trilogy after a 40-year gap in time. Read all this and more in this week's DVD Savant.

Some great discs are being released this week. Check out these new movies: Tangled [Blu-ray review] - a gorgeously mounted motion picture with impeccable artistic flair; Black Swan [DVD review] - a taut, harrowing thriller that unfolds with palpable tension and nightmarish logic; Mad Men: Season Four [Blu-ray review] - this season offers further growth, new surprises, and the same old attention to detail that has made this television show so fascinating. Other reviews of note include: The Ten Commandments (Limited Edition Gift Set) [Blu-ray review], The Mikado [Blu-ray review], and Inferno [Blu-ray review].  Be sure to check out our DVD Talk Review Database for all the latest reviews including an entire section devoted to reviews of DVDs out this week.

Check out the latest DVD reviews that have been entered into the DVD Talk Review Database including: Pirates of the Caribbean Trilogy - movies themselves are highly entertaining, but the real kicker is the bevy of supplemental content and presentational quality; (Hal Roach) Female Comedy Teams - A must for anyone who enjoys classic film comedy; and I Clowns (The Clowns) - Federico Fellini's 1970 prankster pseudo-documentary is fun, intriguing filmmaking. Other recent reviews include: The Man From Nowhere, The Way Back, and Finishing School.  Visit the DVD Talk Review Database for all the latest reviews including an entire section devoted to reviews of DVDs out this week.
