John Landis' Three Amigos comes to DVD with a standard full-frame transfer that preserves the original widescreen ratio of the 1986 theatrical release. A closed-captioned English soundtrack is rendered in Dolby Digital Stereo. English, Spanish, and French subtitles are accessible. Supplemental materials include cast and crew bios. This is obviously a title no one gave much thought to before releasing. It is redeemed slightly by the inexpensive list price, but the unimpressive picture and sound as well as the lack of extras is sure to displease fans of this cult favorite.

It's the year 2029, and much of the world's mutant population has succumbed to a genocidal, man-made virus. As a down-and-out Logan (Hugh Jackman, in his final appearance as the character) comes to terms with his failing healing factor, he and an ailing Charles Xavier (Patrick Stewart) must protect Laura (Dafne Keen)-a young genetically bred mutant with powers similar to Logan's-from the evil organization that created her. With Richard E. Grant, Boyd Holbrook, Stephen Merchant.

Roland Emmerich's ho-hum remake of Godzilla comes to DVD with plenty of extra features: along with a widescreen transfer and Dolby Digital 5.1 Audio, the disc also includes a commentary by the special effects supervisor, shots of New York before and after the giant lizard destroys the town, cast filmographies, and the theatrical trailers. A "making of" featurette and photo gallery also highlight the film's admittedly impressive special effects, while the music video for the Wallflowers' cover of "Heroes" showcases the film's other selling point: its soundtrack. Though the film's artistic merits are dubious at best, Godzilla's DVD plays to its strengths, making it a disc special effects fans will appreciate.

James Cameron's 1989 sci-fi adventure of being in water and groundbreaking early CG is greater in the 171 minute version of the film but needs a blu-ray release really badly.

Quentin Tarantino's 1994 award winning classic, Pulp Fiction still holds up after all these years even the mystery of the case that we will never find out what's really in it.

A spinoff of the Lego Movie universe with Ninjago the movie and it's a fine but not a great film like Lego Movie or Lego Batman and yet still worth checking out!
