[Review] — DOG MAN (★★★★★)


Hey everyone! I’m a bit late to the party, but I just had to share my excitement about the computer-animated film DOG MAN, now available exclusively on digital platforms! You can own it or rent it from Universal Pictures Home Entertainment. Trust me, this is a treat you don't want to miss—alongside the film, you’ll find exclusive deleted scenes, how-to-draw tutorials from the animators, hilarious recording booth bloopers, and so much more when you purchase from participating digital retailers like Apple TV, Fandango at Home (formerly Vudu), Comcast Xfinity, Cox, Microsoft Movies & TV, and Movies Anywhere. Plus, for those who love physical media, DOG MAN landed on Blu-ray™ and DVD on April 1, 2025.

[Review] — Leigh Whannell's WOLF MAN (★★½✰✰)


Why is it so hard to restart the Universal Monster Universe? The 2010 remake of The Wolfman bombed at the box office, even though I found it enjoyable. Then there was The Mummy in 2017, starring Tom Cruise, a total flop. This pretty much stopped any plans for a shared Dark Universe. However, 2020 brought us The Invisible Man, written and directed by Leigh Whannell and produced by Blumhouse. That one did well both financially and critically, giving fans a bit of hope for the future. Unfortunately, those hopes were dashed with this year's release of WOLF MAN. Despite being co-written and directed by Whannell and produced by Blumhouse, the film fell flat and struggled at the box office. It’s now trying to make a comeback with its recent digital release and an upcoming physical release—LIMITED EDITION STEELBOOK, 4K UHD, BLU-RAY™ & DVD coming on March 18, 2025.
