review

While surfing through some broadcast channels last weekend, I stopped on an image of a train with some people chasing Gene Hackman. As a train fan, I’m always somewhat interested in movies that take place on a train, and this was one I didn’t recognize. The channel was one of those that runs...

What can I say? I love 3D! From the moment I began watching 3D content in my home I quickly discovered that I needed more content. I suspect that those of you just purchasing your first 3D hardware will acquire the same ferocious appetite. That's why I became the HTF 3D ADDICT. I personally love...

CalDigit TS3 Thunderbolt 3 Docking Station Review by Ronald Epstein July 2017 To understand why the Caldigit TS3 has become an essential part of my portable office, I need to show you how inconvenient my computing experience was before discovering their docking stations. (Click on above...

Dave Upton Retro Gaming Meets Modern Roguelike: Brut@l Review Brut@l takes you back to an earlier age. As a young man one of my good friends John introduced me to a game called Nethack, a simple ASCII based game where you as the hero (an @ symbol) moved through a dunegon using your...

I'm giving it a "B", which is less than what I thought I'd be giving it given that (a) I am a pretty big fan of the Lego Movie, and (b) the 91% RT score, which usually tracks my opinion pretty well. On the positive side, it does capture much of the same verve, spirit, and humor that made the...

My love for the home theater hobby is credited to my Dad. I grew up around music, speakers, and electronics of every type imaginable. He did his best to teach me everything he knew about putting together an entertainment system, especially how audio and video routed through a receiver. In the...

Well there be a review of these two releases before their release date?

Saw this weird sci-fi video gamer movie today and admit it stumped me in terms of giving a positive or negative review. So let me list the pros and cons. Cons: -Extremely low budget. Seems like it was filmed in a single house with guerrilla outdoors shots stolen when the cops weren't looking...

Saw this Jane Austen adaptation the other day. If you like period pieces, I can guarantee you will love this one. Kate Beckinsale deserves Oscar consideration for her portrayal of a British Lady long on looks and manners and connections but very short on money, and the maneuvers she undertakes...

I'm not a Kevin Hart fan so I was leery about seeing this film during a Friday matinee. I don't find him particularly funny, but what he had going for him in this comedic action film is The Rock as his co-star. Some of the reviews weren't complimentary, but I decided to go anyway and I'm glad...

Was fortunate enough to catch "Popstar: Never stop Never stopping" in the theater today. I say fortunate because (a) this film has flopped badly so won't be around for long, and (b) it's pretty darn funny! Andy Samberg does a fine job playing the Justin Bieber character. Other SNL alumni are...

Move far away. :P

An investor...

The longstanding debate of integrated receiver versus a separate pre-amp/processor and amplifier will probably survive as long as home theaters and living rooms exist. For your average consumer, separates either don’t exist or are a myth, the sort of thing that only the wealthy or truly obsessed...
