Submitted by BrianTT on May 28, 2009 - 1:01pmCHICAGO – The Blu-Ray release of “Valkyrie” is another case of a disappointing movie being elevated by an excellent home release.

Submitted by BrianTT on April 8, 2009 - 3:33pmBlu-Ray Rating: 3.0/5.0 |

Submitted by HollywoodChicago.com on June 27, 2008 - 12:01amCHICAGO – With curving, clinking and kissing bullets, “Wanted” indeed does Chicago proud. And Angelina Jolie sells it.
