I will always regret not being able to go and see one of Levon's Rambles.

An interesting fan interpretation of one of the iconic scenes from Dario Argento's Tenebrae in Lego.

“Being the richest man in the cemetery doesn’t matter to me … Going to bed at night saying we’ve done something wonderful… that’s what matters to me.”

Initially I was loathe to purchase this classic poliziottesco film on DVD for a third time but I am a sucker for limited edition packaging. It is pleasing to hear that this limited edition lenticular cover release by Shameless has already had its 1000 copy run ship to retailers meaning that if you want this limited edition cover you had better get an order in sooner rather than later. Being the first real release of a classic poliziottesco on DVD in the UK and that it appears to have sold rather well we might get to seem some of the other quality films in this cycle given a release.

There have been some surprising Blu-Ray releases this year and this World War 2 propaganda film is most certainly one of them. The cover is beautiful and the HD picture quality is stellar.

2011 appears to be year of Brian DePalma. So far we have had an superlative Criterion Blu-Ray release of my favourite DePalma film Blow Out, this release of Obsession and scheduled for later this year is a US Blu-Ray of Dressed to Kill.

It seems an age since Code Red announced that they would be releasing this former video nasty on DVD. It is also hard to believe that the UK distributor of the original VHS release of this film was imprisoned for 18 months. Code Red's release appears to be rather impressive. The film is presented fully uncut in both 4x3 and 16x9 versions. Only 100,000 units of this DVD have been pressed and Code Red appear to be quite confident that they will shift them. Optimistic maybe but I have my fingers crossed for them.

Loved The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo and I am eager to see the second film in the series.

I couldn't help but think that this was Ben Affleck's ode to Michael Mann's Heat (1995). Still, this is an entertaining, well made heist film.

Destined to become a cult classic. I had a big smile on my face while watching this for the first time. Good fun.
