“The Marcus-Nelson Murders” (1973) is a fictionalized accounting of New York City’s Wylie-Hoffert murders. This is the case that played a major role in people getting read their Miranda rights. In the middle of the night, someone breaks into an apartment and kills two young women. They’re cut up in such a gruesome fashion that the head of the NYPD puts dozens of detectives on the case. He needs a suspect caught fast. Ned Beatty and his team find that man in the form of a kid who wants to give information about a rape attempt. They turn the kid’s helpful attitude into a double homicide confession. Everyone is relieved that the case is closed except Kojak. He doesn’t buy that the kid did it. He senses the real killer is roaming free. Kojak isn’t popular around the police department, but he doesn’t care. He gets a lead that points at a lifelong burglar and junky (Food of the Gods’ Marjoe Gortner). He wants the case reopened and justice really served. The movie could easily be mistaken for a theatrical release with its gritty tour of New York City. Director Joseph Sargent had also made The Taking of Pelham One Two Three the same year. It’s easy see why after this TV movie, the network was eager to have Kojak turn into a weekly character. It should be noted that for this movie, Telly played Kojack.

Kojak lasted five seasons before it was canceled. Telly went onto commercial stardom as the spokesman for the Player’s Club. But the detective role kept calling him back. CBS brought him on for two TV movies during the mid-’80s. “The Belarus File” (1985) brings back Kojak on an international level. This isn’t the usual policework as Kojak gets wrapped up in a case that goes back to World War II concentration camps and a smuggling operation. Telly gets to flex his acting chops against Max Von Sydow (Strange Brew). He also gets to flirt with Suzanne Pleshette (The Bob Newhart Show). While it’s a welcomed return, the heaviness of the plot has Telly play the role with less glib moments. “The Price of Justice” (1987) keeps things within the city limits. His investigation squad must solve the murders of two young boys. The prime suspect is the mom (Kate Nelligan) since she’s a little bit too calm for her own good. Things get bumpy when Kojak uncovers her connections in both politics and crime. This one feels more like the old Kojak from his first movie.

Kojak was revived as a series in 1989 when it became part of the ABC Saturday Mystery Movie. It rotated with Peter Falk’s Columbo and Burt Reynolds’ B.L. Stryker. The five films produced for the series gave Kojak a regular crew including Det. Winston Blake (Andre Braugher). He’s the young guy that Kojak must mentor into his kinda detective. Blake’s also the one dealing with ‘80s hair. The good thing about being bald is that Telly avoids embarrassing haircuts. His dome is eternal. “Ariana” lets Kojak gets paternal when a Greek girl is found in NYC without her parents. “Fatal Flaw” makes Angie Dickinson (Police Woman) as suspect in her husband’s death. Frustrating Kojak is the fact that he once hooked up with her. Can he be suspect? “Flowers for Matty” features an Irish gun smuggling plot. “It’s Always Something” brings back series regular Kevin Dobson. He’s aiming to be the next District Attorney in NYC. “None So Blind” ends Kojak in a star packed mobster tale. Jerry Orbach (Dirty Dancing) has a weasel iced by James Remar (Dexter) at an Italian restaurant. The only witness is Oscar winner Marcia Gay Harden. The killing gets tied back to real estate developer Rip Torn (The Larry Sanders Show). Leave it to Kojak to make sense out of this spaghetti laced case.

ABC killed off the Mystery Movie after this season, but Telly would always be known as Kojak around the world by fans who enjoy lollipops and shaved heads. Some people might be wondering why put out the TV movies when Kojak: Season Three doesn’t come out until March? Shouldn’t this come at the end after season five gets released? Getting the original TV movie onto DVD is a priority for fans who haven’t seen it for decades. It really explains how Kojak arrived on the scene and cemented his reputation. This isn’t going to be shown on ME-TV in the afternoon anytime soon. The boxset is a must see for anyone who asks, “Who loves ya, baby?”





The video for the first three movies is 1.33:1 full frame. The aspect ratio changes to 1.78:1 anamorphic for the ABC Mystery Movies. Telly looks better in widescreen towards the end of his career since he’s a little wider. The quality of the transfers is fine. The audio is 2.0 stereo for all the reunion movies. The mix is fine for a TV show. You get the full sound of Telly’s voice.


Kojak: Who Love Ya Baby (32:00) interviews the cast and crew of the final Kojak series. There’s also talks with Telly Savalas’s friends and family. He got more than his brother George a gig on the show. There’s a lot of details about the series. We get to meet the man who really inspired the Kojak character. Turns out he wasn’t a cop or Greek.


Kojak: The Complete Movie Collection brings together the pilot film with the 7 movies that were made after the series went off the air. “The Marcus-Nelson Murders” is a great ‘70s Cop film with Telly Savalas facing off with Marjoe Gortner. While Telly has gotten a little older and heavy, he’s has his suave nature. Kojak might be a step short when chasing down a suspect, but he’s got the same glimmer in his eyes when he corners them. He’s got young assistants to do the heavy running.


Shout! Factory presents Kojak: The Complete Movie Collection Starring: Telly Savalas, Rip Torn, Marjoe Gortner and Suzanne Pleshette. Boxset Contents: 8 films on 4 DVDs. Released on DVD: January 24, 2011. Available at Amazon.com.

The film follows two detectives (Sam Worthington, Jeffrey Dean Morgan) as they track a serial killer dumping his victims’ corpses in the fields off I-45 outside of League City, Texas. This is an old fashioned procedural as Souder (Worthington) and Heigh (Morgan) try to break the case by a thorough investigation. And it deserves much better than going quickly to DVD because it was good enough to be in theatres.

It starts with Worthington and Morgan. They aren’t the typical mismatched cops you normally find in the genre. They work well together but Heigh is obviously the veteran hand. He’s cool and calm, having seen way more than Souder has in his career. Souder loses his calm enough that Heigh knows how to handle him; Morgan and Worthington have an easy chemistry together in this regard. These are two partners that have been together for long enough to know each other’s quirks but not long enough to be a pair of old, grizzled cops. Souder is not green but he’s not quite the veteran hand his partner is. Heigh knows this but doesn’t have a problem with it. As they investigate the case their relationship becomes fascinating to view; these are two similar men at two different points on the same timeline of being a good police officer.

The film itself is a fairly perfunctory procedural but Mann has a similar style to her father. The way she tells a story is really similar and you can see elements from Mann’s canon of film scattered throughout this one. Her father also produced the film, so his touch is expected, but she has enough of a variant on the way he tells a story that it feels like her own. She uses a much different editing style, preferring quicker cuts to disperse longer scenes. The younger Mann uses a similar style to her father in setting up scenes but cuts it up and uses different shots of the same scene much more. There aren’t any long shots or extended takes, giving it a different feel despite a similar story-telling style. It’s still the same Michael Mann style film, using plot points to show us character as opposed to specific character establishing moments, but it’s presented differently and thus feels fresh and original.

Texas Killing Fields deserves better than what it has; hopefully audiences can find and enjoy it on DVD. It’s a terrific police procedural.





There’s an Audio Commentary with Ami Canaan Mann and Donald F Ferrarone as well as the film’s Theatrical Trailer.


There isn’t much to the DVD besides some slight extras but the film is good enough to warrant a rental at a minimum.

Colombiana tells the story of Cataleya Restrepo (Amandla Stenberg at age ten and Saldana for the rest of the film). At the age of ten she watches as a drug lords henchmen gun down her parents in front of her. After an exciting chase through the city of Bogata, Columbia, Cataleya escapes the men and with some information her father gave her makes her way to America. There she meets up with her uncle (Cliff Curtis) in Chicago who she begs to teach her how to be a killer. Now grown up and a lethal assassin, Cataleya kills for money while tracking down the men who killed her parents.

While not the most original of stories, Colombiana succeeds in providing some great sequences that more often than not aren’t the most believable, but in the moment they are generally so bad ass that you don’t care how believable they are. The film slows down at times to provide Cataleya with an emotional core so that she can be the kind of trained assassin you can care about. Though, this is the kind of action film where there is never any real threat to the hero. She is always five steps ahead of her adversary even if all logic is thrown out the window to get her there.

It’s certainly not a perfect film. Beyond the logical flaws (which don’t hurt its overall enjoyment) the final fight scene in Colombiana is very poorly shot. The director and cinematographer chose style over substance and showed that either they don’t know how to shoot a hand to hand combat fight, or their actors didn’t know how and they needed to cover that up. That said, the way the final fight ends was awesome and I’m not going to spoil that surprise here. The other thing that really bothered me, oddly enough, was the use of Johnny Cash’s cover of “Hurt” at the end of the film. It’s a great song, but it’s inclusion here felt very trite.

What really holds it together, though, is Saldana. If for one second the audience didn’t believe that Cataleya was a coldblooded killer then the whole film would be lost. Saldana really brings this character to life elevating her above your usual one dimensional action hero which is one of the more appealing aspects of the film.

When it comes to Luc Besson (who co-wrote the screenplay) your chances of having a good time are pretty high. I mean not only did he direct La Femme Nikita and Leon but he has written many great action movies including Taken starring Liam Neeson. Colombiana isn’t one of his strongest efforts but sure is an entertaining film.





This film is presented in 2.35:1 widescreen and 5.1 DTS-HD MA English, French and Portuguese Surround. This is a pretty good looking film and the blu-ray really jumps of the screen. The sound for the most part fine, but at times the dialog is too quiet compared to the music and explosions.


The Making Of: (25 min.) A typical, but interesting behind the scenes. Cataleya’s Journey: (9 min.) If nothing else you get some great interviews with Amandla Stenberg who plays Cataleya for the first 30 minutes of the film. Assassins: (12 min.) Kind of a repeat of the making of, but a few more interesting nuggets thrown in. Training A Killer: (6 min.) Saldana discusses her training for the film. Take The Ride: (7 min.) and here they discuss all the locations where the film was shot.


I wasn’t sure what to expect going into Colombiana – would it be a good Luc Besson film or a bad one? I was pleasantly surprised and entertained for the most part. Where it lacks in originality it makes up for in character development which most action films sorely lack. The only other thing I kept thinking all through the film was, “Why isn’t Danny Trejo in this?”


Sony Pictures Home Entertainment presents Colombiana. Directed by: Olivier Megaton. Written by Luc Besson and Robert Mark Kamen. Starring: Zoe Saldana, Michael Vartan, Cliff Curtis, Callum Blue and Amandla Stenberg. Running time: 111 min. Rating: Unrated. Released on DVD: December 20, 2011. Available at Amazon.com.

It’s a fairly difficult film to summarize in terms of plot, as the film’s main running time is essentially wall to wall violence, involving the Yakuza in a blood feud where nearly everyone dies. It’s akin to the ending of Cinema Paradiso except if all the violence scenes from better films were spliced into one seemingly continuous violent stream of a film. At times it gets to be a bit much as you almost wish you could have a scene without it that lasts longer than a minute.

Outrage doesn’t have much beyond that. A good way to understand the film is to understand Kitano’s motivations for the film. He wanted to make something purely commercial instead of telling his usual sort of nihilistic story. After plotting out character deaths he crafted the story to fit them all in. Not knowing this beforehand it makes the film fit better; instead of viewing it as a seemingly directionless film focusing on nothing but violence.

Outrage is an interesting film and the Blu-ray format gives it a zest that lovers of cinematic violence can enjoy. The problem is that it has nothing beside the violence, which is fairly remarkable and well done. This is a film that can barely fit in the clichés of the Yakuza genre between the violence and as such it’s a solid watch but nothing to go out of your way for.





Presented in a widescreen format with a surround sound, this is a beautiful transfer.


There are two Interview segments with the cast as well as a Q&A, all of which shed some light into the film but not much. Both of the film’s Trailers are included as well as the usual Behind the Scenes documentary.


If you need a generic Yakuza thriller to kill nearly two hours, Outrage is a nice diversion. But it’s not a brilliant representation of either the genre or Kitano’s work.


Magnet Releasing presents Outrage. Written & Directed by Takeshi Kitano. Starring Takeshi Kitano, Ryo Kase. Running time: 109 minutes. Rated R. Released on Blu-ray: January 31, 2012. Available at Amazon.com.

The film stars Hervé Villechaize, Susan Tyrrell, Gisele Lindley, and Richard’s brother (you may have heard of him) Danny Elfman, as well as members of The Mystic Knights of the Oingo Boingo.

The bizarre story follows Flash Hercules (Phil Gordon) who travels to the six dimension to rescue his sister Frenchy (Marie-Pascale Elfman) whose life is in grave danger there after the King (Villechaize) falls in love with her and the Queen (Tyrrell) demands her death. The Princess runs around topless the whole film and Danny Elfman plays Satan and sings a modified rendition of Cab Calloway’s “Minnie the Moocher”.

This was the first film to feature a Danny Elfman film score. The film was nominated for Saturn Award for Best Low-Budget Film.

The Blu-ray hits the streets May 7th.

The other new release this weekend, Big Miracle, had the biggest production budget of the three films, but also scored a Cinemascore of ‘A’. So there again is an opportunity for positive word to lift its earnings in the coming weeks. Last week’s number one, The Grey, had an expected 52% drop facing new competition, but should have $34 million after two weeks in release.

Now the other big development is the overall success of Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol. You would think Paramount Pictures nuts to want to go ahead with a fourth Mission: Impossible installment after Fox’s Knight and Day could only muster $72 million domestic. But it’s always good to pay attention to international numbers, because nearly 71% of its total earnings came from overseas. Knowing this a fourth installment in the successful franchise was made. Having put his infamous couch-jumping incident behind him, Tom Cruise may be inclined to kick up his heels at the news that with a global gross of $600 million-plus, Ghost Protocol is now the highest-grossing film in his career.

The success of Ghost Protocol probably won’t influence Cruise’s upcoming projects in terms of box office numbers – including this June’s Rock of Ages – but at least we know he’ll choose to accept another impossible mission sometime in the next three years.

While one could argue that Al Pacino has played animated characters in the past (Scarface, The Devil’s Advocate), the Academy Award winner has never lent his voice to animation. That will all change, as Pacino will voice the villain in Despicable Me 2 – the sequel to the highly popular 2010 hit film, which grossed $543 million worldwide.

What type of villain Pacino’s character will be is still under wraps, but he’ll definitely be a thorn in the side of Gru (once again voiced by Steve Carell).

Universal is targeting a July 3, 2013 release.

Unlike the viral videos of today, Raymond and Peter found fame amongst the tape traders of the day but were much more underground than they would be today. Shut Up Little Man! follows the chronicles of the now middle aged former roommate as they go back and explore the cult phenomenon that was their tapes.

“Shut Up Little Man” began as a series of audio recordings of Peter and Raymond as they drunkenly fought late at night in their apartment. Given to their friends as a series of mix tapes interspersed with music from the ‘80s, the tapes took on a life of their own as they were traded across the country in the days before the internet. Adapted into many things, including a stage play and an indie film, Raymond and Peter have turned the recordings into a cottage industry selling them on CD, etc, and the film follows their progression from taping the two out of curiosity to the legal battle over the rights to try and cash in on it that eventually followed.

It’s a really fascinating documentary because it contrasts the nature of fame and sensations before and after the internet. Contrasting it with the nature of fame as it stands now, as a video or moment can become famous worldwide within hours now as opposed to the length of time it took back then. We get to see just how people got their hands on the tapes as a handful of artists, et al, discuss the amusing anecdotes they had about discovering the wacky adventures of Peter and Raymond.

Matthew Bate taps into the universality of how we experience things like this and it takes what’s a relatively unknown subject and gets as much as he possibly could. Shut Up Little Man! is an interesting documentary that’s accessible on a grander level about the nature of how we discover things using two wacky, drunken roommates. The problem is that we don’t get enough of either Peter & Raymond or the nature of how things randomly become popular; it’s an uneven 90 minute mix that feels like it has much more to say than it eventually does.





There’s a Return to The Pepto which follows Eddie and Mitch as they go back to their old apartment and see how it’s changed over the years and talk to the residents of both apartments.

An Extended Interview with Ivan Brunetti, an illustrator of some repute, about Peter and Raymond is included. Some Recreations of moments from the tape series are included. You sound like an idiot is a recollection from Eddie and Mitch about playing their tapes in front of Raymond and Peter.


Shut Up Little Man is a solid documentary with some lackluster extras. It’s worth a rental at a minimum.


Tribeca Film presents Shut Up, Little Man!. Directed by Matthew Bate. Running time: 90 Minutes. Not Rated. Released on DVD: January 24, 2012. Available at Amazon.com.

2011′s Straw Dogs pretty much follows the same story as Sam Peckinpah’s gripping 1971 drama about a young couple returning to the woman’s hometown and get pushed too far by the local yokels. However, this time around instead of having Dustin Hoffman as a mathematician you have James Marsden as a Hollywood screenwriter. The movie is still and uncomfortable and tense, it still has that horrible rape scene (which isn’t as horrible) and that awesome bear trap scene (which isn’t nearly as awesome), but when all is said in done, Straw Dogs ‘11 is seriously lacking.

From a production standpoint this film is pretty well made. It’s got descent performances – James Woods is a highlight in the film as the belligerently drunk coach – and fine cinematography. But I think that might be part of the problem; part of what worked about Peckinpah’s was how gritty the film looked. This film is just too crisp and clean for this kind of story.

The other big problem with the film is James Marsden. He’s a decent actor, but he’s just not strong enough to carry this film. The way he portrays David Sumner you just don’t care about him as a person. The same goes for Kate Bosworth. Yes, her Amy Sumner is much more of a “modern woman,” but the choices these characters make are baffling. Alexander Skarsgard is one of the stronger performers in the film but his character is very flat. There seems to be very little purpose in his villainy. He, like most the other characters in Straw Dogs, do what they do in this film seemingly because the script told them to. More often than not logic is thrown out the window with every descision made in this film.

At the end of the day there really is just no point to this remake. Sam Peckinpah’s film was a dark, gritty, controversial film that while hard to sit through is considered a classic. This remake has already been forgotten by most.





The film is presented in 2.40:1 widescreen and 5.1 Dolby Digital. This is a fine looking film, too fine even. Yes everything is crisp and clear, but that’s not what you want in a dingy film like this.


Commentary: In the opening moments of the commentary the director admits that there is never a need to remake a movie. Do you need to listen to anything else after that? In fact he spends half the time talking about Peckinpah’s version and what he changed and why and what he thinkgs he did better. Courting Controversy: Remaking a Classic: (8 min.) The filmmakers attempt to justify why they remade this film. The Dynamics of Power: Cast: (6 min.) Here everyone talks about how great everyone else was. Inside the Siege: Stunts: (7 min.) The stunts of the final siege are discussed here. Easily the most interesting of these four featurettes. Creating the Sumner House: Production Design: (4 min.) I’ll give the film this, this location of the Sumner house was very gorgeous.


As my wife put it when the film was over, “Can we watch something good now?” Whichever version of Straw Dogs you watch is going to be a tough to get through, but if you watch the original at least you’ll be watching a good film.


Screen Gems presents Straw Dogs. Written and Directed by: Rob Lurie. Based on the screenplay by: Sam Peckinpah and David Zelag Goodman. Starring: James Marsden, Kate Bosworth, Alexander Skarsgard and James Woods. Running time: 110 min. Rating: R for strong brutal violence including a sexual attack, menace, some sexual content and pervasive language. Released on DVD: December 20, 2011. Available at Amazon.com.

“A Lion in the Streets” is a double-length episode about mobster Ross Martin (The Wild Wild West) angling to takeover the hotel worker’s union. Complicating matters is the arrival of a rogue cop (Rich Man, Poor Man’s William Smith) gunning for Ross. Turns out he might have killed Smith’s wife. Can Lord bust Ross without Smith slaughtering the guy? The first new addition to the crew is Truck (Moe Keale). He’s like a punching bag version of Kono. No matter what was happening, Truck would eventually get his butt kicked. The big hire was Smith. Even though his character’s name is James Carew, McGarrett nicknames him Kimo. Who? Probably so he could say something like Danno during the show. “Who Says Cops Don’t Cry?” features the shortest tenure on the Five-O force. Officer Kevin Wilson (The Matrix Reloaded’s Frankie Stevens) gets gunned down during a robbery right before McGarrett was going to give him the news. McGarrett hires his wife (Sharon Farrell) to the force thus becoming the first true female member.

“Through the Heavens Fall” puts Robert Reed (The Brady Bunch) with a rich guy club that hunts down criminals that escape the legal system using smart lawyers. He was like an early version of Dexter. “Sign of the Ram” mixes astrology and murder at the boxing ring. Jayne Meadows (wife of Steve Allen) sees things in the stars. “Good Help is Hard to Find” is Ross Martin’s final time as the mob boss. He’s ready to put an end to Kimo. He makes McGarrett’s crew look inept as his plot unwinds. “Image of Fear” gives us a touch of Soon-Tek Oh. He’s best known as the POW camp chief that tortures Chuck Norris in Missing In Action 2: The Beginning. “Use a Gun, Go to Hell” follows a weapon around the island. “Voice of Terror” gets goofy with people wanting to take over a radio station. Truck gets taken hostage. “School for Assassins” overwhelms the island with killers. McGarrett and Kimo must keep world energy leaders from being snuffed.

“Woe to Wo Fat” wraps up the series with a final showdown between McGarrett and Wo Fat (Khigh Dhiegh). Their feud began in the pilot all those years ago. A trio of scientists have been abducted. The only hope for McGarrett to recover them is to disguise himself as a fourth scientist. Who could be napping the nerds? Why it’s Wo Fat. He’s using science to brain wash them. Since this was the last episode, McGarrett works without any help from the Five-O force. The disappointing element of the episode is the lack of MacArthur since the show doesn’t end with “Book ‘em, Danno.”

There are critics who bemoan what became of the final season with the new cast and unbelievable plots. But the show was always unrealistic. This wasn’t The Wire: Tropical Flavor. McGarrett’s crew wasn’t there to work and not add too much of their personal life to the cases. When they did mention a life outside the office, it was a signal that their loved one was about to die. The new crew were given a little more depth than being McGarrett’s legmen. Kimo and Wilson’s tragic backstories linger through episodes. Kimo even butts heads with McGarrett now and then. But Kimo knows who is boss in the office. While it’s easy to mock this final season, it showed they were trying mix up the chemistry to make it work for a little bit longer. But no matter how sweet life is in Hawaii, you have to say Aloha.

The Episodes
“A Lion in the Streets” (Two-Parter), “Who Says Cops Don’t Cry,” “ Though the Heavens Fall,” “Sign of the Ram,” “Good Help is Hard to Find,” “Image of Fear,” “Use a Gun, Go to Hell,” “Voice of Terror,” “A Shallow Grave,” “The Kahuna,” “Labyrinth,” “School for Assassins,” “ For Old Times Sake,” “The Golden Noose,” “The Flight of the Jewels,” “Clash of Shadows,” “A Bird In Hand…,” “The Moroville Covenant” and “Woe to Wo Fat.”





The video is 1.33:1 full frame. The transfers are sharp enough to see Truck’s reactions to all the gut punches. The audio is Dolby Digital Mono. You’ll hear quite clearly when Truck gets hit. The episodes are subtitled.


Series Promo (0:30) is the CBS network generic promo for the show.


Crime Wave (2:51) is a musical montage featuring Trackmasters. Sounds like the guy who used to the rap on E! Clips are taken from the entire run of the series. This is perfect for wedding dancefloors.


Hawaii Five-O: The Twelfth and Final Season wraps up the career of Steve McGarrett. The storylines do seem rather goofy, but this was not a serious crime show. McGarrett played by his own set of rules when someone tried to destroy his paradise. If you bought the previous 11 seasons, you need this to finish up the experience. Aloha, Jack Lord.


CBS DVD presents Hawaii Five-O: The Twelfth and Final Season. Starring: Jack Lord, William Smith and Herman Wedermeyer. Boxset Contents: 19 episodes on 5 DVDs. Released on DVD: January 10, 2011. Available at Amazon.com.
