Blair Witch (Blu-ray Review) – Back into the supernatural Black Hills woods for more found footage

January 22, 2017 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Starring: Brandon Scott, Callie Hernandez, Corbin Reid, James Allen McCune, Wes Robinson
Director: Adam Wingard
Running Time: 89 mins
Certificate: 15
Release Date: January 23rd 2017 (UK)

When it was announced at Comic Con that Adam Wingard’s The Woods (which already had a bit of hype about it even though no one knew much about it) was actually a sequel to The Blair Witch Project, it seemed a bit of a masterstroke of marketing. Immediately a movie that might otherwise have elicited shrugs and accusations of cashing in on a dead franchise, instead jumped to the top of horror fanboys interest lists.

Now though it’s starting to seem like it might have worked a little too well, as it raised the hype level so high that unless the actual movie turned out to be a surprising and zeitgeist-capturing as the original 1999 film, it was bound to be seen as disappointing.

The Infiltrator (Blu-ray Review) – Bryan Cranston goes undercover laundering drug money

January 22, 2017 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Starring: Benjamin Bratt, Bryan Cranston, Diane Kruger, John Leguizamo
Director: Brad Furman
Running Time: 127 mins
Certificate: 15
Release Date: January 23rd 2017 (UK)

Bryan Cranston is US Customs Official Bob Mazur, who specialises in going undercover to take down the bad guys. Following a successful sting where he gets injured, he’s told he’s eligible to retire. Instead he takes on a new job, going back undercover as shady business Robert Musella.

While his partner, Emir (John Leguizamo), infiltrates the lower ranks of the drug world, Bob works his way into the trust of those higher up the narcotics chain, posing as a man capable of laundering millions of dollars for Pablo Escobar’s Medellin drug cartel. The further into this world he goes the more dangerous it gets, necessitating the need for a fake fiancée (Diane Kruger), and having to pretend his wife is his secretary to help ensure his real family is kept safe, all while knowing that if he’s found out he’ll get a bullet in the brain.
