Houdini in a hoodie: Rami Malek in 'Mr Robot'

DVD ‘Mr Robot’ – Season 1

Sensational new drama series takes a Kubrickian view on modern life – a millennial Fight Club, if you will.

DVD ‘All That Jazz’ (Criterion Blu-ray)

A nigh-on-perfect, electrifying, almost overwhelmingly sexy and enthralling post-modern film musical from 1979 gets the revival treatment from Criterion, and the results could not be more pleasing.
