HELP! to Be Released on Blu-ray in June

In 2007, HELP! was released as a restored DVD to fairly universal appreciation. But this is 2013, and a new kid on the block, Blu-ray, has supplanted DVD in almost every quarter. Last year, Yellow Submarine, and Magical Mystery Tour were restored to Blu-ray standards and Beatles fans everywhere were rightfully ecstatic.

Blu-ray Review: The Sweeney

Based on a '70s British cop show of the same name, The Sweeney is a fine showcase for the intense Ray Winstone (even if the story comes up short).

Blu-ray Review: Oz the Great and Powerful

Lots of cool special effects that look great in high definition can't compensate for uninspired storytelling. The cast works hard to inject some much needed energy.

Blu-ray Review: Philadelphia - Twilight Time Limited Edition

Twenty years later, the courtroom drama holds a great deal of power due largely to excellent work by Tom Hanks and Denzel Washington.

Blu-ray Review: 3:10 to Yuma (1957) - The Criterion Collection

Based on a short story by Elmore Leonard, this western seems to have avoided aging despite the passage of 46 years. Glenn Ford is excellent as outlaw Ben Wade.

Blu-ray Review: The Grifters

Director Stephen Frears' crime classic deserves a better visual presentation, but at least it's finally available on Blu-ray. Ace work by John Cusack, Anjelica Huston, and Annette Bening remains a highlight.

Blu-ray Review: Crossfire Hurricane

Compressing the 50-year history of The Rolling Stones down to just under two hours is a challenge that director Brett Morgen faces head on.

Blu-ray Review: Full Frontal

An all-star cast, including David Duchovny and Julia Roberts, is wasted by director Steven Soderbergh in this plotless mess.

A quirky comedy whose quirks feel increasingly forced, but Hugh Laurie, Alia Shawkat, and Leighton Meester all shine.
