Synopsis

When the Democratic National Committee’s top strategist Gary Zimmer sees a video of retired Marine colonel Jack Hastings standing up for the rights of his town’s undocumented workers, he believes he has found the key to winning back voters in America’s heartland. Paying an unscheduled visit to Hastings’ dairy farm in rural Deerlaken, Wisconsin, Gary persuades the largely apolitical retired Marine to run for mayor. Initially, Gary relies on Jack’s very capable daughter, Diana and a team of enthusiastic, if inexperienced, volunteers. However, when the Republican National Committee counters him by sending in his brilliant nemesis Faith Brewster, Gary is more than primed to up his game. As Gary and Faith square off, what started out as a local race quickly becomes escalates to a national political battle and a hilarious fight for the soul of America.

New on Disc: A Treasure Map of Entertainment

September 1st, 2020

The Goonies

The flood of TV-on-DVD releases has ended and we have no major first-run releases, which is no surprise. That said, there are a lot of catalog titles that are worth picking up coming to DVD and Blu-ray this week. Evil Under the Sun and two other Agatha Christie films will satisfy fans of mysteries. Horror buffs have Blood Quantum and Z. Fans of anime should check out Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure: Golden Wind Part One and Nichijou: My Ordinary Life. Meanwhile, if you have a 4K setup, Beetlejuice, Pitch Black, and The Goonies are all worth owning. In fact, The Goonies is this week’s Pick of the Week. More...

Limited and Virtual Releases: Humming a Cheerful Tune

June 25th, 2020

House of Hummingbird

It is another slow week for limited releases and, like last week, the best film, House of Hummingbird, likely won’t find an audience in theaters due to its genre. On the positive side, while there are not a lot of releases on this week’s list, the hit to miss ratio is better than most weeks. More...

VOD Releases: Trolls Begin a New Tour on VOD

June 24th, 2020

Trolls World Tour

Trolls World Tour is easily the biggest release on this week’s list. In fact, it is bigger than the rest of the films combined. That said, while it should entertain kids, it isn’t the best release. The best is a two-way tie between The Ghost of Peter Sellers and Tokyo Olympiad—two documentaries that are worth checking out. More...
