They all wrote that the movie was thoughtful and beautifully shot, suggesting that it showed the problems of modern cities and emphasized that all forms of life need to be kind and considerate of one another in order to survive. Criterion is releasing the film on Blu-ray and on DVD.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignright is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cinemastance.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/DVD-Amanda-fixed.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-28721\" width=\"307\" height=\"192\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">AMANDA \u2013 A well-off, sheltered but isolated 25-year-old\nlives at home with her family.

When those in the household try to force her to socialize with\nothers who are her own age, the lead decides to search for a childhood\nacquaintance. She becomes determined to make this person her best friend and\ntries to grow as a human being in the process. This international\nItalian-language effort was very well received by critics. One or two did state\nthat while they laughed, they didn\u2019t feel any connection with or care for the\ncharacters. Everyone else thought it was a hilariously awkward but gentle\ncoming-of-age film that was quite unlike anything they had seen before. Some\nalso made note of the elegant cinematography. It stars Benedetta Porcaroli,\nGalat\u00e9a Bellugi and Giovanna Mezzogiorno.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignleft is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cinemastance.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/DVD-Amelias-Children-fixed.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-28722\" width=\"288\" height=\"196\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">AMELIA\u2019S CHILDREN \u2013 An adult man who was taken as a child\nand permanently separated from his family receives a call from a twin brother\nwho says he has spent years searching for him. The thrilled protagonist is\nexcited to meet his long-lost relatives, traveling to Portugal with his\ngirlfriend. But after arriving, neighbors warn the man about the family\u2019s past\nand the couple begin to fear for their lives. This Portuguese chiller earned a\nmixed reception in North America, with slightly more negative notices than\npositive ones. Those who liked it said that the film was tense and found it\ngrimly amusing to see the hero being manipulated by those around him. Yet, the\nmajority called the picture uninspired, suggesting there were no surprises in\nthe story and no effective shocks. For the time being, this is a DVD-only\nrelease.

Their son is also questioned about what he might have seen. The spouse ultimately ends up being charged with the murder, causing conflict with her son as the trial progresses. This French feature was praised and it ended up being nominated for Best International Film at the Academy Awards. A few called it a flat courtroom drama that felt icy and didn\u2019t result in a strong emotional response. However, everyone else was fascinated by the storytelling and trying to get a read on whether or not the main character was guilty. They noted the fantastic performances and how it depicted a crumbling marriage. Sandra H\u00fcller, Swann Arlaud and Milo Machado Graner headline the feature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignleft is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cinemastance.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/DVD-Arthur-the-King-fixed.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-28724\" width=\"262\" height=\"171\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">ARTHUR THE KING \u2013 Based on a true story, this tale follows an adventure racer who embarrasses himself during a big moment in a competition.

They meet great obstacles along the way and come across an unusual companion who tags along\u2026 a stray dog. The animal continues to follow them around the lengthy trail and inspires them to be better people. Reviews were more positive than negative. Almost one-third found the feature uninspired in its execution with regards to race scenes, as well as emotionally manipulative in the way it handled the animal moments. Still, most liked the overall message and stated that this was one instance in which following a familiar formula worked. They liked the cast and dog and rallied behind the team. It stars Mark Wahlberg, Nathalie Emmanuel, Simu Liu, Ali Suliman and Paul Guilfoyle. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cinemastance.com\/arthur-the-king-has-difficulty-reaching-the-finish-line\/\">Read this website&#8217;s review of the film here. <\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignright is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cinemastance.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/DVD-Bob-Marley-One-Love-fixed.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-28725\" width=\"325\" height=\"216\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">BOB MARLEY: ONE LOVE \u2013 Reggae singer\/songwriter Bob Marley\nis the subject of this musical biopic.

He and the\ngroup leave the country and begin writing a new album that brings them\nworldwide acclaim. Still wanting peace for his countrymen, he considers\nreturning home and performing while dealing with unexpected health issues. This\ndrama earned a mixed reception from the press. Nearly half thought the lead\nperformance was strong and that the film\u2019s music and message was a treat to\nhear. Alas, slightly more thought that the storytelling wasn\u2019t as dynamic as\nthe songs and that the picture didn\u2019t paint a detailed enough portrait of the\nmusician. There will be various editions of the film available, including a 4K\nUltra HD and Blu-ray Steelbook, a regular 4K Ultra HD and Blu-ray combo and a\nstandalone Blu-ray.

He sets out to\nclear their name and, in the process, deal with his own questionable past\ndecisions. The trail ultimately uncovers an international conspiracy that puts\nthe world in danger. This independent action picture split reviewers. Almost\nhalf commented that the action set pieces were well-handled and the picture\nmanaged to entertain as efficiently as most big-budget contemporaries. The same\nnumber and a few more called it generic and noted that the zippy fights\ncouldn\u2019t overcome a pedestrian script and clumsy dialogue. Aaron Eckhart, Nina\nDobrev, Clifton Collins Jr., Tim Blake Nelson and Ilfenesh Hadera headline the\npicture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignright is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cinemastance.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/DVD-Club-Zero-fixed.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-28727\" width=\"318\" height=\"208\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">CLUB ZERO \u2013 This international co-production tells the story\nof a new teacher at an elite school.

When parents and other teachers get involved, they discover the hidden\nmotivations of the employee and the secretive club she runs with some of her\npupils. This comic-thriller earned decent reviews from critics. About one-third\ndidn\u2019t think its critique of modern diets was effective and wrote that the\npicture confused its message. However, the majority thought that the story had\nnumerous layers that viewers would be thinking about for a long time\nafterwards. They called the picture dryly funny and disturbing with a strong\ncast. It features Mia Wasikowska, Ksenia Devriendt, Luke Barker and Florence\nBaker.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignleft is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cinemastance.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/DVD-Creation-of-the-Gods-One-fixed.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-28728\" width=\"282\" height=\"189\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">CREATION OF THE GODS I: KINGDOM OF STORMS \u2013 Well, from the\ntitle alone one can assume that this period fantasy feature from China is the\nfirst in a series. It\u2019s based on a popular novel in the country that details a\nmythical war between humans, immortals and monsters. This all begins when a\ntyrannical king brutalizes his people and incurs the wrath of Heaven. They send\na warrior to help the people and battle with the villain and his forces. This\nforeign-language feature got a mixed-positive reception. Almost half complained\nthat it was all set-up and no pay-off, tiring them out with its extended\nrunning time. Slightly more thought the film was impressively shot and labeled\nit an impressive epic that promises even more thrills in the next installment.\nThe cast includes Huang Bo, Kris Phillips, Xuejian Li, Yu Xia and Kun Chen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignright is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cinemastance.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/DVD-Damaged-jackson-fixed.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-28729\" width=\"314\" height=\"196\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">DAMAGED \u2013 When a serial killer terrorizes Edinburgh,\nScotland and leaves investigators baffled, UK authorities ask a Chicago\ndetective who handled a similar case years earlier to help them out. He arrives\nand is teamed up with a local cop. The two must get over their initial\ndifferences and work together to catch the murderer before he strikes again.\nWrite-ups for this thriller were not strong. Almost one-third of them believed\nthat the cast was engaging and the story efficiently managed, keeping them guessing\nuntil the close. Sadly, most described the film as dull and overly dark to the\npoint that it came across as more silly than scary. They didn\u2019t think it built\nup much tension and became a chore to get through. The movie stars Samuel L.\nJackson, Vincent Cassel, Gianni Capaldi, Laura Haddock and John Hannah.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignleft is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cinemastance.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/DVD-Drift-cast-fixed.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-28730\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">DRIFT \u2013 A refugee from a war-torn country arrives on a Greek\nisland alone and penniless. She attempts to find support and make a new start\nfor herself, but initially struggles not only with the new environment but also\nin dealing with her troubled past. Thankfully, the lead makes friends with a\ntour guide and the two support one another as they try to overcome adversity.\nThis multinational independent production received generally upbeat reviews.\nAbout one-quarter of write-ups did find the pacing slow and thought it only\npresented a surface-level presentation of its protagonist. Regardless, many\nmore wrote that the film was a small but sensitive and well-acted portrait of\nthe struggles faced by refugees arriving after experiencing terrible hardships.\nThey thought the two leads were excellent and shared great onscreen\ncamaraderie. It features Cynthia Erivo, Alia Shawkat, Ibrahima Ba and Honor\nSwinton Byrne.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignright is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cinemastance.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/DVD-In-the-Land-of-Saints-and-Sinners-fixed.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-28731\" width=\"315\" height=\"184\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">IN THE LAND OF SAINTS AND SINNERS &#8211; Set in Ireland in the\n1970s, this tale follows a World War II veteran and widower living quietly in a\nsmall Irish village. Of course, his life isn\u2019t all that mellow, as he has spent\nyears working as a hit man for a mob boss. One day, a woman arrives determined\nto find the lead. She and others who are involved in the ongoing Northern\nIreland conflict soon make their presence and violent intent known. Notices for\nthis drama crime\/thriller were very strong. A handful called the story\npredictable and called the tone too grim for their tastes. Yet the consensus\nwas that this picture was its star\u2019s best effort in a few years. They noted\nthat the interesting, understated lead character was surrounded by a great cast\nand that the morally gray picture was suspenseful and compelling to watch. Liam\nNeeson, Kerry Condon, Jack Gleeson, Colm Meaney, Desmond Eastwood and Ciar\u00e1n\nHinds headline the picture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignleft is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cinemastance.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/DVD-Io-Capitano-fixed.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-28732\" width=\"292\" height=\"194\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">IO CAPITANO \u2013 Here\u2019s another picture that was nominated for Best International Film at the Academy Awards. The story is about two boys living in Dakar, Senegal. They decide to leave home for a fresh beginning in Europe, hiding money away for their lengthy trip. One of the youngster\u2019s moms doesn\u2019t want him to go, but the pair eventually do head out. The journey is incredibly long and arduous with grave dangers along the way. As one might expect, critics thought the film was exceptional. One or two critiqued it as being overly sentimental, saying that it needed a more realistic tone. All others thought the feature was beautiful, heartfelt and empathetic, putting human faces to the people making these intense journeys. They were also impressed by the acting and the visuals, stating that the film felt appropriately epic in scope. The cast includes Seydou Sarr, Moustapha Fall and Issaka Sawadogo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignright is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cinemastance.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/DVD-Knox-Goes-Away-fixed.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-28733\" width=\"291\" height=\"169\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">KNOX GOES AWAY \u2013 An elderly hitman learns that he is\nsuffering from a rapid form of dementia. With little time left before his mind\ncompletely fades away, he is visited by his estranged adult son. Panicked, the\nson explains that he has just murdered another man for hurting his daughter\n(the lead\u2019s granddaughter) and needs assistance to cover the crime up. With\npolice closing in, the assassin tries to keep it together long enough to\ncomplete the task. Critics gave this picture more recommendations than pans.\nSlightly more than one-third of reviewers disliked it, calling it gimmicky, the\nplot overly complicated, and the pacing slow. Still, more thought that the\nworsening condition added suspense to the story. They noted that the central\nperformance was amazing and the film worked very well as a twisty, hard-boiled\nthriller. It features Michael Keaton, Al Pacino, James Marsden, Marcia Gay\nHarden and Suzy Nakamura.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignleft is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cinemastance.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/DVD-Kung-Fu-Panda-4-02-fixed.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-28734\" width=\"296\" height=\"186\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">KUNG FU PANDA 4 \u2013 As this sequel begins, the titular bear is\nstill yearning for more adventure.

A\nnew threat to the land emerges, the protagonist decides to square off against\nthe individual. But along the way, he meets a quick-witted thief and the pair\nteam up to save the land. Notices were not as strong for this chapter as\nprevious entries, but it still earned a majority of recommendations. A fair\nnumber of reviewers thought the humor in this entry wasn\u2019t as sharp and that\nthe story was unmemorable. Yet more referred to it as effective family\nentertainment with enough funny jokes and rousing bits of action to entertain\nviewers young and old alike. There are various editions of the film available,\nincluding a 4K Ultra HD and Blu-ray combo, a 4K Ultra HD and Blu-ray combo, a\nsingle Blu-ray, a Blu-ray and DVD Steelbook, and a four-movie collection\nBlu-ray pack.

Starting in the\n1940s and 50s, the filmmakers examine early appearances of LGBTQIA characters\nin the ring, following trends through the height of wrestling in the 80s all\nthe way to the present day. Archival footage is used along with interviews of\nperformers, those who worked with them in the ring, fans, historians and\njournalists. All share their insight on this subject. The picture hasn\u2019t been\nseen by many critics, but all of those who have watched it enjoyed what they\nsaw. They all called it an entertaining, inspirational and important\nexamination of queer performers in the profession with excellent stories from\nall those involved.

They eventually determine that they have died in an accident and must pass through the gates of either Heaven or Hell. One moves onward and the film turns into an anthology as two other stories are told about how others have ended up in Hell. This independent foreign-language genre film earned a lot of attention from genre critics, who thus far have given it high marks.&nbsp; A small number (including myself) have commented that, after a strong opening, the following stories meander and fail to resonate or make an impression. Still, most called the picture effectively distressing and stated that it delivered eye-catching visuals and a nightmarish vision. It features Hugo Dillon, Arden Bajraktaraj and Oph\u00e9lia Kolb.<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cinemastance.com\/blu-ray-review-pandemonium-2023\/\"> You can read my take on the movie here.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignright is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cinemastance.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/DVD-Quantum-Cowboys-fixed.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-28737\" width=\"312\" height=\"194\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">QUANTUM COWBOYS \u2013 This animated science-fiction\/comedy is\nset in the 1870s and follows two drifters wandering through Southern Arizona\ntrying to find a frontier musician. In the process, they meet and befriend a\nwoman trying to recover her land. While trying to help her, viewers are treated\nto 12 different universes (each featuring its own style of animation) and their\nconversations about philosophy and time theory. This independent production\nplayed the festival circuit in 2022 and is now arriving on disc. A small number\nof reviews for the film have appeared and are all encouraging. They state that\nit takes a bit of time to get used to, but that the movie is an original and\ninventively trippy effort with wonderful imagery and interesting themes,\nincluding the creation of memories. The voice cast includes Kiowa Gordon, Lily\nGladstone, John Way, David Arquette, Frank Mosely, Gary Farmer, Neko Case and\nAlex Cox.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignleft is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cinemastance.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/DVD-Red-Right-Hand-fixed.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-28738\" width=\"294\" height=\"189\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">RED RIGHT HAND \u2013 A man trying to live a quiet life is\ninformed that his sister has died.

He initially agrees, but eventually decides to fight back\nin order to protect his sister\u2019s family. Response was mixed towards this\nindependent action\/thriller. Almost half called it a well-produced B-picture\nthat was slick and fun to watch thanks to its great cast. Still, slightly more\nthought that the performances weren\u2019t quite enough to overcome the\npredictability of the story and overly familiar characters.

Specifically, a unit of sasquatches living in\nthe Northern Californian woods and hiding from human society. Viewers see their\nsocial bonds, witness them foraging for sustenance, as well as note how they\ndeal with others of their kind. It features no dialogue, just \u201cbigfoots\u201d going\nabout their bizarre daily rituals. This oddball feature earned more positive\nwrite-ups than negative ones. A portion complained that there was too much\ngross-out humor and that the repetitiveness of the story eventually became\ntiring. However, the majority called the film so weird that they couldn\u2019t help\nbut praise it for its audacity. They stated that it did win them over,\nproviding memorable moments and plenty of humorous insight on living in\nisolation and co-existing with the environment.

The man imprisoned for the crime\nwho is facing a death sentence maintains his innocence and the lead begins to\nquestion the evidence. Obviously, he has difficulty remembering exactly what\noccurred, but becomes determined to make things right and solve the mystery.\nThis crime picture was a co-production between the US and Australia. Reaction\nto the movie wasn\u2019t particularly strong. More than a third of those who saw it\nthought the film was an effective modern noir, bolstered by the lead actor and\na twisty script. Yet the majority commented that the project was overly morose,\ndimly lit and clumsily put together in an unsatisfying manner. For the time\nbeing, this is a DVD-only release.
