Recent Notable Releases: Tomb Raider, El Sur, and Ninja III: The Domination
Some pretty cool discs have made their way to store shelves over the past couple of weeks. Check out these new titles:
Tomb Raider (4K UHD) - a perfectly serviceable film that continually gets better as the runtime progresses… the script is thin, but the Lara Croft character excels due to Alicia Vikander's wonderful performance; El Sur: Criterion Collection - a pleasant surprise for those unfamiliar with Spanish director Victor Erice's small body of work: filled with memorable visuals and a glimpse of the fractured, vaguely nostalgic relationship between a father and daughter through the years, there's a lot to appreciate; and Ninja III: The Domination (Collector's Edition) - there's so-bad-it's-good, and then there's Ninja III: The Domination. Tapping into America's long-unsated hunger for supernaturally Jazzercised martial arts action, this film is entrancingly bizarre and '80s action schlock of the highest order.

New Reviews: Peter Pan, Fistful of Dollars, and My Friend Dahmer
Our reviewers have been busy this week, filling the DVD
Talk Review Database more great entries. Some new reviews of note include:
Peter Pan (1953) - a timeless classic about the wonders of imagination and joys of youth… the story resonates today as it did 65 years ago, and this film will no doubt remain important to future generations; Fistful of Dollars - reissued on Blu-ray with a brand-new 4K restoration sourcing the original Italian Techniscope camera negative the film overall never looked better and the disc is packed with extras to boot; and My Friend Dahmer - an intimate look at some of the formative years of a disturbed young man who would grow up to be a twisted killer… something more honest than you might imagine.
