Movies in Theaters: Me and Earl and the Dying Girl, Inside Out, and The Gift
There have been a lot of really good films released this summer. Check out some of these movies that come highly recommended:
Me and Earl and the Dying Girl - one of the most genuine coming-of-age flicks to be distributed in the last few years... it's guaranteed to make you feel an entire web of emotions without ever feeling removed from reality; Inside Out - easily be the best animated movie of the year, one which does not fail in any fashion, succeeding with its depth, its delight, its honesty, and its heart; and The Gift - a thoughtful piece of frightening film... one of the better thrillers you'll see, not just this year, but ever.
Other recent films include: Straight Outta Compton, Mission: Impossible - Rogue Nation, Jurassic World, Mad Max: Fury Road , and The Man from U.N.C.L.E...
Check out these, and more, in DVDTalk's Theatrical Review section.

More TV shows have made their way on to DVD and Blu-ray, and DVD Talk has got them covered. Check out our reviews of the newest TV releases including:
The Walking Dead: Season 5 - this set offers up the best of the series so far in the quality that fans have come to expect from the show's home video releases; Mystery Science Theater 3000: Volume 1 (Shout! Factory Edition) -Shout! is finally doubling back and re-releasing new versions of the original (and long out-of-print) Rhino sets... if you missed out on the original release this is a solid enough set to merit a spot in your personal collection; and The Rebel: The Complete Series - a surprisingly good Western series, several cuts above the usual TV oater of the period.

Recent Reviews: That Guy Dick Miller, Agnes Varda in California, and Eskimo
It's been a great week for movie reviews here at DVD Talk. Here are some recently covered films that all come highly recommended:
That Guy Dick Miller - this hugely enjoyable docu-bio tells the story of Dick Miller, a terrific movie personality who's largely unknown yet beloved by veteran movie fans everywhere ; Eclipse Series 43: Agnes Varda in California - an eclectic and beautifully realized set of films about life in Los Angeles from the French New Wave's unsung heroine; and Eskimo - this 1934 MGM production counts as one of those marvelous under-the-radar movies that emerge once every so often on Warner Archives... a captivating, surprisingly non-patronizing drama of primitive life among the natives on the Arctic circle.
Other recent reviews include: La Grande Bouffe, The Harvest, and Lambert & Stamp. Visit the DVD Talk Review Database for all the latest reviews including an entire section devoted to reviews of DVDs out this week.
