Knowing : DVD released on July 7,2009


Nicolas Cage stars in this largely unsatisfactory science-fiction story that starts as a taut and eerie story of mental legacies and ultimately falling back on Steven Spielberg's old cosmic play book for standard explanations of strange phenomena. Cage stars as an astrophysicist and widower John Koestler, whose young son attends a school where a 50-year Time Capsule is dug and opened. Koestler son Caleb (Chandler Canterbury) is an envelope of the capsule with a sheet of paper marked with seemingly-random numbers. Koestler interprets the numbers as groups of prophecies (in 1959) of disasters in the run-up to a global katastrofisch event in late 2009. Moreover, some of the later tragedies involving him or members of his family, suggesting the paper is to fall into his hands and Caleb. That is not the only freaky thing drawing father and son in a direction they really do not want to go. Among other things, a quartet of strangers keep mute shown a strong interest in Caleb's true, and the daughter and granddaughter of the little girl who originally something songs in 1959 under the shadow of a separate prediction of doom. Everything goes swimmingly until the time for director Alex Proyas (The Crow) to start the use of strings, and blocks start falling as rain. On the plus side, Knowing includes some breathtaking scenes of emergencies, the most gruesome (and realistic) with a jet crash the like of which has never been captured on film.

Two Lovers : DVD released on June 30, 2009



Russian-American director James Gray (The Yards) has never been a secret of his affection for the Italian crime drama. This opera influence permeated his first three features, but two lovers takes more signals intimate French films, and anxiety-ridden Russian fiction (specific Dostoyevsky's short story "White Nights"). Aspiring photographer Leonard (Gray regular Joaquin Phoenix) returns to Brooklyn after a failed relationship only to find themselves torn between two paramours of opposite personalities. Sandra (Vinessa Shaw, 3:10 to Yuma) is the safe choice, while Michelle (Gwyneth Paltrow, recalling her streetwise character in PT Anderson's Hard Eight) presents a challenge - it is a party girl in love with a married man -- but Michelle enthusiastic him out ways and attentive Sandra, a drug company REP, no. Gray leaves the viewers to determine whether Leonard should religion factor in his decision and his supportive parents (Isabella Rossellini and Moni Monoshov) would like to see him pair with the Jewish Sandra, but they usually want their only son to be happy. If he joins his father - and Sandra's - the dry cleaners game, that would be a happy bonus (the men are engaged in a merger). Although Leonard's bipolar quirks threaten to derail the proceedings - it is hard to believe two beautiful women would gravitate towards a socially awkward fellow - Two Lovers is an improvement over Gray's last film, We Own the Night and a welcome return to the scenic Brighton Beach area Little Odessa, are promising debut.

Pink Panther 2 : DVD released on June 23, 2009



"Let me bring you up to speed. We know nothing. You're on speed." Thus, the bumbling, deadpan persona of Inspector Clouseau, re-invented by Steve Martin, best summarized. In this sequel to the 2006 remake of the classic Peter Sellers film, Martin gets crisper direction and a smarter script than he did the first. Martin, to his great credit, has never been afraid to look foolish self prat falls or take - and the viewer will find these remakes are less satirical than the original selling films, he will still rent our great laughs and chuckles through the course of the film . And what a cast! Martin, along with John Cleese, Jeremy Irons, Lily Tomlin, Jean Reno, Bollywood superstar Aishwarya Rai, Emily Mortimer, Alfred Molina and Andy GarcĂ­a - who all seem to be a delightful romp - a feeling that contagious. The story picks up where the last film ended, with Clouseau's saved precious diamond Pink Panther in Paris. Since then, Clouseau is reassigned to parking ticket duty to him from the frayed nerves of Chief Inspector Dreyfus (Cleese). But a band of international thieves target ravages the world's treasures, and before you can say minkey the priceless Pink Panther goes missing again. If plot is somewhat predictable, it's not an issue since the phun in haplessness of Clouseau and the rings of the nuclear fallout around him. And you can never rule hamburger the same way.

Friday the 13th (Extended Killer Cut): DVD released on June 16, 09




If you thought that a bigger budget and an A-list producer (Michael Bay) would go to Jason's head, well, forget it. The indestructible villain of so many bottom-of-the-barrel shocker not to change his shtick, and the 2009 Friday the 13th proves it. This is yet another sequel (nope, it's not a remake of the origin story) to the original 1980 film, gives us a clever prologue that runs past a Jason Voorhees killing spree in a vivid and bloody 20 minutes. Jumping next six weeks, the film is a carload of teenagers Clue Less line for a weekend at a Lakeside cabin, plus a lone biker (Jared Padalecki) in search of his missing sister (Amanda Righetti). When the "Lakeside" happens to refer to Crystal Lake, of course, there can be only one result. Cue the hockey mask, and let the machete. Bay and director Marcus Nispel, who participated in the Texas Chainsaw Massacre remake, are surprisingly indifferent to change the formula this time, but there is more care in building a number of characters, and for once the comic relief (usually supplied by Aaron Yoo and Arlen Escarpeta) is pretty funny. You might even deplore the slaughter of some of these young folk, this is an unusual feeling in Friday look. The film is Jason, the athletic fellow, and he has assembled an extensive underground cave to hide in the vicinity of Crystal Lake. How has he been able to live there for 30 years (as the film itself timeline is suspected) and had enough unconsciously campers along to amuse themselves, everyone recommended. But if they continue to come, he will continue to chop.

Watchmen (Director's Cut + Digital Copy and BD-Live) : Blu-ray released on July 21, 09



Everyone's favorite graphic novel comes to the screen (after years of rumors and false start), reduced by a roaring work of adaptation than a respectful and loyal to a radical original. Watchmen is set in the middle of the 1980s, a time of heightened nuclear tensions between the United States and the Soviet Union, as Richard Nixon is enjoying his fifth term as president and the world of superheroes forced to retire. (As you probably say, the mix of authentic history and alternative reality is impetuous.) Things start with a bang: the mysterious murder on the high Comedian (Jeffrey Dean Morgan), a masked hero with a checkered past, the rest of the retired superhero community on alert. The credits sequence, a series of tableaux that witty catch us back crime story, actually turns out to be the highlight of the film. Then we meet the other caped and Hooded Avengers: The blazing Rorschach (Jackie Earle Haley), the inexplicably naked Dr. Manhattan (Billy Crudup, in the middle of many blue skin, genital-swinging digital work), Silk Specter II (Malin Akerman), Nite Owl II (Patrick Wilson) and Ozymandias (Matthew Goode). The corkscrewing stories that worked well in the comic book, the film the strange feeling of never quite get in gear, even if some of the episodes have been arrested. Director Zack Snyder (300) not attempt to adjust the electrical effect of the original (written by Alan Moore - who declined to be credited to the film - and illustrated by Dave Gibbons), but remains faithful to his source material carefully. That does not feel good, even with the generally pleasant roll of anecdotes. Even less forgivable is the blah occurs, with the exception of Jeffrey Dean Morgan (firm) and Patrick Wilson (soft). Watchmen certainly fills the eye, although less so that the ears, the song choices are regrettable, especially during a painful mid-air link between Nite Owl II and Silk Specter II as they unite their - ah - Roman numerals. In the end it feels like an enormous work of transcription has been successfully completed, that is not the same as making a blood film experience.

Gran Torino (Widescreen) : DVD released on June 9, 2009




Clint Eastwood's Gran Torino, a modest photo shot during a post-production on his extensive rock period piece Change Ling was quiet out on Christmas 2008, after which they proceeded to blow away all the Oscar-bait giants at the Box Office and win its 78-year-old star of the best reviews of his acting career. Both films and performances are consummately cunning - stand up with deceptive simplicity, only to evolve into something complex, powerful and surprisingly tender. Like Unforgiven was a tragic reflection on Eastwood's legacy in the Western genre Gran Torino caps and eloquent criticism of the urban heritage of Dirty Harry and his violent brothers. And on top of that, the movie is a savvy meditation on America in a particular historical moment, racially, economically, spiritually. Call it a "state of the Union message. But call it with a lopsided grin.

The new Dirty Harry is a sullen Walt: Walt Kowalski (Eastwood playing his own age), a widower, Korean War veteran, retired auto worker, and the last white resident of Detroit street. It is difficult to say who irks him - his blood relatives (a pretty lame bunch) or Hmong families who are his new neighbors. Kowalski is a racist, because it never occurred to him he should not be. Besides, this is the Flip Side of mutual ethnic baiting that serves as the currency of affection for him and his working-class buddies. Circumstances - and the two young people next door, the feisty Sue (Ahney Her) and her brother in battle Thao (Bee Vang) - Walt contrive to involve a new community, and anoint him as a hero after he turns his big guns some ruffians. The range of this may surprise you - several times over. Eastwood film chosen for economic misery Detroit - a shrewd decision, but its mapping of Walt's world that the classical style that really counts. Each corner of occasional lawn, terrace and cellar to matter - and by all means the workshop / garage that houses the mint condition Gran Torino sign that Walt helped build a more prosperous era. This is a remarkable film.

Based on the bestseller by two Sex and the City scribes, He's just not that into you confirm that the HBO series is more than just a TV show - it was a cultural institution that gave tours, catchphrases, fashion trends, and much more.

Alt-weekly ad saleswoman Mary (executive producer Drew Barrymore), the link between this loose-knit community. An enthusiastic Internet Date and full-time technophile, she bemoans the fact that "people together more organically."
