DVD Review BADLANDS (BLU-RAY)

Watching Terrence Malick's early-career classic with a young Sissy Spacek and Martin Sheen never gets old, as there's always some tiny nuance to discover. Now, thanks to The Criterion Collection, the film sports a brand new 4K digital transfer, which is all the excuse I need to explore the film yet again.

PR The Monkees Season 1 & Season 2 on DVD Sep 27

It was the first time on American television that a situation comedy keyed in on the zany escapades of a Beatles-styled rock band. The type of stylized new-age cinematic techniques (ala A Hard Day's Night) were coupled with music from some of finest songwriters in America (Gerry Goffin/Carole King, David Gates, Neil Diamond, Barry Mann/Cynthia Weil). The terminally cute vocalist Davy Jones, guitarist Mike Nesmith, bassist Peter Tork and drummer Micky Dolenz catapulted songs such as "I'm A Believer," "(I'm Not Your) Steppin' Stone," "Daydream Believer," "Last Train To Clarksville" and "Pleasant Valley Sunday" into huge hits. Bonus features for the first season include commentary from the band and the show's directors, trivia for each episode, a 16mm version of the original pilot, discography and vintage Monkees Kelloggs commercials.

PR The Big Bang Theory: The Complete Fourth Season DVD & Blu-ray Sep 13

When socially awkward scientists experiment with love, usually only hilarity ends up as a result. In this season, the gang's romantic universe expands as Leonard, Howard, Raj and even Sheldon test their skills outside of the lab. On the rebound from Penny, Leonard falls into the arms of Raj's sister, Priya. Sheldon finally gets a girlfriend – or rather a friend who is a girl – Amy, a dour neurobiologist who adopts Penny as her new best friend. Howard and Bernadette's chemistry heats up – and so do Raj and Bernadette (at least in Raj's Bollywood daydream!) The romantic twists and turns, both real or imagined, continue to bring on the laughs in this award-winning series.
