Movies in Theaters: Kubo and the Two Strings, The Light Between Oceans, and Sully
It'd be a good week to go to the movies. Here are DVD Talk's recent theatrical reviews:
Kubo and the Two Strings - this 3D animated film is a stunning, quite memorable piece of artistry from Laika Entertainment, the studio that created Coraline; The Light Between Oceans - a film with all the pieces necessary to succeed and the talent to pull it off; Sully - Clint Eastwood latest directorial project is a compelling true story with the terrific main actors; and Don't Breathe - one of the better and smarter horror blockbusters you'll see this year.
Other recent films include: Pete's Dragon, Sausage Party , Suicide Squad, Star Trek Beyond, Ghostbusters (2016), The Neon Demon, The BFG, The Legend of Tarzan, and Finding Dory..
Check out these, and more, in DVDTalk's Theatrical Review section.
TV on DVD and Blu-ray remains very popular with more and more favorites being released. New TV reviews include:
Supergirl: The Complete First Season - this show gets off to a promising start, thanks to a likable cast and sympathetic characters.... there's also enough action, intrigue, and fun to make a new viewer want to stick it out through the whole season; Criminal Minds: Season 11 - the show continues to be top-notch entertainment for crime show aficionados... the chemistry between the ensemble cast makes for a spellbinding, twist-and-turns, edge-of-your-seat drama; and The Hollow Crown: The Wars of the Roses - an adaptation of Shakespeare's Richard II, Henry IV: Parts 1 and 2, and Henry V, the nearly six and a half hour production updats dialogue for a more modern ear, without betraying the heart of the original prose.
