Some great TV shows have made their way onto home video recently including: Avatar - The Last Airbender: The Complete Series - a lively, colorful, whimsical, and engaging show… this BR release is an SD upconversion, it's still the best version of the show you can get on home video; Gunsmoke: The Thirteenth Season - another terrific round of great Western drama, this thirteenth season provides many hours of quality entertainment and is worth the price; and Nickelodeon Favorites: The Great Summer Campout! - lukewarm summer entertainment with little more than a flimsy outdoor backdrop pasted on each show's standard formula .

Several great movies and programs have come out recently, including a few that shouldn't be missed: The Banishment - exquisitely shot with a slow and steady pace, this movie captivates with its mysterious narrative and small cast of memorable characters; Disorganized Crime - the film is your basic heist comedy but there are a number of very good, against type performances that have more nuance and range than you'd expect; and Vigil (1984) - a prickly, turbulent drama that draws in viewers with its fantastic visuals and rewards those willing to read between the lines.

Check out the latest reviews that have been entered into the DVD Talk Review Database including: Jack the Giant Killer - Kino Lorber's excellent new Blu-ray offers a vastly improved high-def transfer that, frankly, turns what was pretty unendurable tripe on DVD into something that's actually pretty entertaining; Oh Lucy! - a funny, moving, bittersweet movie, anchored by an incredible lead performance that captures a range of emotions that rarely appear in the same film; and Graduation: Criterion Collection - carefully formulated, deeply analytical, and emotionally devastating, Cristian Mungiu explores the murky "do as I say, not as I do" world of parental morality in the context of modern-day Romania.
