Arrow Video 4K UltraHD release of EXCALIBUR, feels like an achievement.
A movie I used to watch endlessly when I was a kid, this is a peak release.

MINORITY REPORT (2002), teaming up Philip K. Dick & Steven Spielberg was a genius!
The movie is entertaining, the idea behind Precrime is interesting and of course Tom Cruise only helped the movie.
The 4K UltraHD is not demo worthy but is an upgrade over the bluray.

CITY ON FIRE (1987), forgot how bad-ass it is, the score, the action scenes, and of course, Chow Yun-fat.
The levels of loyalty & betrayal, massively entertaining, Ringo Lam is a genius.
Glad I waited for Arrow Video, it is amazing (A/V and subs), the definitive release.

AKIRA (1988), one of the best movies ever, an iconic Cyber-punk movie, phenomenal animation, a complex and fascinating story and one of the greatest scores ever made.
Highly recommend the Japanese 4K UltraHD (HDR and hypersonic track) is the definitive release.

BIRTH (2004), Glazer doesn’t direct much, but when he does, you take notice.
Birth is an outstanding Kubrickian psychological drama, with stunning cinematography & score and an ending that will haunt you down.
Thanks to Criterion this movie will get a new life and appreciation.

SILENT HILL (2006), this is a great horror movie and one of the best video game movies ever made (the bar is not that high, to be fair).
The atmosphere, the creepiness, the violence and the music, all fantastic, all this pull you into the movie, is a very entertaining ride.

TANK GIRL (1995), I forgot how entertaining, frenetic and bad-ass the movie is.
The comic book animation for the montages is genius, the soundtrack is gold! Is. Gold.
The 4K restoration from Vinegar Syndrome looks and sounds stunning.

THE ANIMATRIX (2003), one of my favorite anthology movies, gets better with every rewatch.
The animation is fantastic and the stories all are amazing.
Probably my favorite “sequel” (I say sequel very loosely) from the Matrix franchise.

THE MATRIX (1999), the movie is endlessly entertaining!
A perfect action movie, the plot makes more sense now than back in 1999.
I love the score, soundtrack, cinematography, the needle drop at the end of the movie, I just love it.

Steelbooks (2025)
As most of you know, I am not a huge fan of steelbooks, but there are exceptions, the artwork is bad-ass or is the only option.
Just to be clear, my number ONE steelbook of the year is KINGDOM OF HEAVEN, what a release.

MARTY SUPREME (2025), a tour de force, brilliant scene after brilliant scene.
Timothée Chalamet is phenomenal, he is the most charming asshole I seem on a movie, but is Odessa A'zion who stole the movie for me.
The movie grabs you by the balls and doesn’t let go till the end.
