Blu-ray Pick for July 21, 2009
2009
Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow [Blu-ray]
This week is dominated by older releases. There are quite a few very good movies to pick from and it was getting harder and harder to decide until we came across one of our all-time favorites. Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow is a pure joy with virtually everything going for it as it scores a check mark on each of our selection criteria. Throw in the non-stop homage to the Saturday matinee and the picture show becomes even more enjoyable as you remember one great film and actor after another.
Every Tuesday we pick our favorite new Blu-ray release. When possible we spotlight lesser known titles as they are easily overlooked and often under-appreciated. Although occasionally a blockbuster becomes one for good reason and we won’t hold it against them. Our selections are based on entertainment value and takes into account the following weighted in the order listed.
- Story-line
- Acting
- Overall execution of the movie
- Our taste in movies
- Video image
- Audio mix
At times we will selection a concert, TV series or other material. The absolute deciding factor comes down to what we want to view in the theater on release day. If it tops that list it’s our pick!
