July 29, 2009 - Our latest review covers next week's Blu-ray/DVD Combo of Race to Witch Mountain. This sci-fi/action flick plays freely with the facts of 1975's Escape to Witch Mountain, amounting to a loose remake.

Kelvin Cedeno reviews the movie that centers on a teenager (Justin Chatwin) looking to find seven magical orbs before the evil Lord Piccolo (James Marsters) does. This PG-rated fantasy co-stars Chow Yun-Fat and Phantom of the Opera's Emmy Rossum.

July 27, 2009 - We take an look at next week's The Tigger Movie: 2-Disc 10th Anniversary Edition. Coming a year early and with only a digital copy on its second disc, this rerelease doesn't really live up to the fanfare of its moniker. But the movie, Winnie the Pooh and company's first all-new theatrical feature film, remains a triumph true to the style of Disney's original Pooh featurettes. Besides the digital copy and the obligatory slipcover, the DVD adds two episodes of award-winning late-'80s/early-'90s cartoon "The New Adventures of Winnie the Pooh" to its adequate slate of recycled extras. Read the full review.

This latest take on Stan Lee and Steve Ditko's iconic superhero looks at Peter Parker's life shortly after acquiring his powers, as he protects New York City from an assortment of supervillains while attending high school on the side. Developed by Victor Cook and Greg Weisman ("Gargoyles"), this animated series stays true to the characters and stories of Marvel Comics while operating in an exciting contemporary setting. Learn if it lives up to its title by reading our early DVD review. The 2-disc, 13-episode set hits stores on Tuesday, with two all-new featurettes.
