  1. Dirty Rotten Scoundrels is a fun little movie. Not really a “get it on blu-ray!!!” movie, but still — can’t go wrong with Steve Martin and Michael Caine.

  2. Bohemian Rhapsody had some uneven parts (pacing, editing) but overall, it was a trip to watch Rami Malak bring Freddy Mercury back from the dead. The film was worth it just for the recreation of the Band-Aid concert at the end. Play it loud and enjoy.
