The Breakfast Club

photo for The Breakfast Club (1985) What happens when five strangers end up together in Saturday detention? Badass posturing, gleeful misbehavior, and a potent dose of angst. With this exuberant, disarmingly candid film, writer-director John Hughes established himself as the bard of American youth, vividly and empathetically capturing how teenagers hang out, act up, and goof off. “The Breakfast Club” brings together an assortment of adolescent archetypes—the uptight popular girl (Molly Ringwald), the stoic jock (Emilio Estevez), the foulmouthed rebel (Judd Nelson), the virginal bookworm (Anthony Michael Hall), and the kooky recluse (Ally Sheedy)—and watches them shed their personae and emerge into unlikely friendships. With its highly quotable dialogue and star-making performances, this exploration of the trials of adolescence became an era-defining pop-culture phenomenon, one whose influence now spans generations. Formats: 4K UHD + Blu-ray. Extras: Read more here(The Criterion Collection).




Cheech & Chong’s Last Movie

photo for Cheech & Chong's Last Movie (2025) “Cheech and Chong’s Last Movie” defies documentary expectations, offering a wildly imaginative take on genre convention; a true-life tale told through a mix of animation and archival madness, all underscored by a classic cinematic road trip comedy. Tracing the enduring legacy of pioneering comics Cheech Marin and Tommy Chong, the film features interviews, sketches, and never-before-seen footage spanning the duo’s five-decade career. The result is an unlikely story of friendship and fame, turmoil and defiance, rebellion and ultimately – redemption. Vitals: Director: David Bushell. Stars: Tommy Chong, Cheech Marin, Johnny Carson, Lou Adler, Shelby Chong. CC, MPAA rating: R, 120 min., Documentary, Theatrical release date: April 25, 2025, North American box office gross: $.750 million, worldwide $.750 million, Streaming date: May 23, 2025, Bushell Productions.

East of Wall

photo for east-of-wall-box.jpeg (2025) Director: Kate Beecroft. Starring: Tabatha Zimiga, Porshia Zimiga, with Scoot McNairy and Jennifer Ehle. Rating: R. Running time: 97minutes. An authentic portrait of female resilience in the “New West” spired and played by the women and girls who live it.

Formats: DVD, VOD, Digital. (Sony)





Hard Boiled Deluxe Edition

photo for Hard Boiled Deluxe Edition (1992) Director: John Woo. Starring: Chow Yun-Fat, Tony Leung Chiu-Wai, Teresa Mo. A tough-as-nails cop teams up with an undercover agent to shut down a sinister mobster and his crew. Chow Yun-Fat stars as a cop hell-bent on bringing down the gun smugglers responsible for his partners’ death, along with an undercover cop whose secret identity as a hitman hangs by a thread. The film raises gunfights to an art form, with some of the most celebrated action sequences ever. Includes a new 52-page booklet with four expert essays and extensive art – all collected in a three-disc set. Formats: 4K Ultra HD/Blu-ray Combo, VOD, Digital. (Shout Studios’ Hong Kong Cinema Classics). Extras: Read more here.

Outland

photo for Outland (1981) Writer-director Peter Hyams takes classic Western tropes off-world and into the future in sci-fi thriller “Outland,” starring Sean Connery as a federal marshall assigned to keep the peace on a distant moon. Con-Am 27 is a mining facility on Io, one of Jupiter’s largest moons. Six hundred million miles away, the gravity there is one sixth of what it is on Earth, and there is no breathable atmosphere. The work is hard, the bonuses big and productivity is breaking all records. But people are dying. Every so often they just snap. The secret? A drug that can keep its miners working days on end, but over time results in burn-out and psychosis. When new Marshall William O’Niel (Connery) investigates, he uncovers a deadly conspiracy and finds his life under threat from a company that will stop at nothing to keep him quiet. A chillingly prophetic depiction of corporate greed and exploitation with muscular direction from Hyams, and a stellar performance from Connery. On 4K UHD in a brand new restoration that is out of this world. Formats: 4K Ultra HD. Extras: Read more here. (Arrow Video/MVD Entertainment).
