Keyword View: ring DVD Review COMMANDO  This is Arnold during the peak of his career, meaning a constant mix of bloody action sequences and awesomely horrible one-liners. I'm not sure what extra greatness this "Director's Cut" brings, but here's hoping there's at least something interesting in there. Read More... PR The Exorcist in the 21st Century on DVD & Digital May 7  The Church granted filmmakers Fredrik Horn Akselsen and Christian Falch a remarkable degree of access to tell this story, allowing them to accompany one of the few exorcists in Europe, the Vatican-approved Father Jose Antonio Fortea, Catholic priest / Exorcist and author. Father Fortea travels the world on his mission to enlighten the masses about demonic possession and to help fellow exorcists. Father Gabriel Amorth, Official Vatican Exorcist, is also prominently featured in the documentary. He has been an exorcist for 25 years and estimates he has seen 70,000 cases. Read More... PR Pretty Little Liars: The Complete Third Season on DVD Jun 4  Catch up on one of basic cable's most suspenseful series. The five-disc set contains all 24 episodes from the third season, plus special features including a brand-new featurette, gag reel, deleted scenes, and bonus webisodes. Read More... PR Dark Skies on Blu-ray & DVD May 28  Keri Russell and Josh Hamilton as a young couple with children living in the suburbs. As husband and wife, Daniel (Hamilton) and Lacy Barrett (Russell) witness an escalating series of disturbing events involving their family, their safe and peaceful home quickly unravels. When it becomes clear that the Barrett family is being targeted by an unimaginably terrifying and deadly force, Daniel and Lucy take matters in their own hands to solve the mystery of what is after their family. Read More... DVD Review THE LIFE AND DEATH OF COLONEL BLIMP (BLU-RAY)  This beautifully restored British comedy has a great deal to say about aging and war without ever losing its light touch. Read More... PR Macbeth - The Film starring Jason Connery on DVD May 28  Macbeth is authentically set in eleventh century Scotland. This epic, award winning production conjures a world of grim battlefields, desolate moors, forbidding castles and haunted caverns. Peopled by witches and warriors, assassins, Kings and an infamous Queen, Macbeth moves at a breathtaking pace through tales of war, murder, intrigue and revenge. Read More... PR Shanghai Noon/Shanghai Knights on Blu-ray May 7  East meets West in two wildly hilarious comedies starring legendary action star Jackie Chan and funnyman Owen Wilson.

PR Stand Up Guys on Blu-ray & DVD May 21  Tough but touching film centers on three retired gangsters (Al Pacino, Christopher Walken, Alan Arkin) who reunite for one epic final night. However, one of the friends is keeping a dangerous secret - and his time to find an acceptable alternative is running out. As the sun rises on the guys' reunion, their position becomes more and more desperate and they finally confront their pasts once and for all. Read More... PR Fall & Rise of Reginald Perrin: Complete First Season on DVD May 21  Reginald Perrin has a respectable career at Sunshine Desserts, a happy marriage and two less-than-satisfactory children. But the pressures of the rat race are beginning to push Reggie over the edge. The mere mention of his mother-in-law conjures the image of a hippopotamus, the word 'earwig' keeps creeping into his conversations, and his thoughts are repeatedly interrupted by outrageous fantasies involving his secretary -what's an overly stressed food firm executive to do? Read More... PR Frankie Go Boom on Blu-ray & DVD May 14  For decades, amateur filmmaker Bruce (Chris O'Dowd) has tortured his awkward brother Frank (Charlie Hunnam) with a series of embarrassing videos posted on the Internet. Bruce finally goes too far when he uploads a video of a disastrous one-night stand involving the inebriated daughter of a loose-cannon ex-movie star. To try to undo the damage, the brothers enlist the help of Bruce's transsexual computer-hacker buddy played by Ron Perlman in one of the year's most hysterically unexpected performances. Universal Studios Home Entertainment Read More... PR Dance Academy: Season 1, Volumes 1 & 2 and Season 2, Volumes 1 & 2 on DVD May 14  When you're sixteen, life is rarely simple. In fact, there's enough to keep you on your toes in normal circumstances. But what if you were also living away from home at the country's top dance academy? Meet Tara Webster, who grew up on a country farm, but has always dreamed of being a professional dancer. When she's admitted to Australia's prestigious National Academy of Dance, she feels like all of her dreams are about to come true... Read More... PR Back to 1942 on Blu-ray, DVD & Digital May 14  This tragic retelling of historical events is based on Zhenyun Liu's best selling novel Remembering 1942. The Henan province disaster, where three million people died of starvation, was a humanitarian crisis first sparked by drought, then compounded by a combination of windstorms, government corruption and a war with Japan. In the midst of the devastation, an American journalist (Adrien Brody) searches for answers, and slowly comes to understand that there may be a greater connection between these tragedies and his political theories than he once thought. Read More... DVD Review LIZ & DICK  Exploitive much? Lindsey Lohan brings her tabloid gravitas to a movie picking over the bones of the woman, whose life was the material of tabloid legend. Not very good as a biography, not very good as a movie, this film careens from cringeworthy to boring. For Lohan completists only (or maybe Grant Bowler fans). Read More... PR Escape on Blu-ray & DVD May 14  One part Hanna, one part Game of Thrones, this pulse-pounding Norwegian thriller from the director of the Cold Prey trilogy makes its U.S. debut this May starring Ingrid Bolso Berdal and Kristin Espedal. Read More...  Based on true events, a Vegas-style birthday bash goes terribly wrong in this horrifying thriller. Once on the fabled strip, the guys waste no time getting the revelry started, arranging to meet strippers and undaunted by the girls' request to hook up in a remote location. Read More...

PR The Powerbroker: Whitney Young's Fight for Civil Rights on DVD Apr 30  During the 1960s, as the executive director of the National Urban League, Whitney Young was one of the few African Americans who had the ear of those who controlled the levers of power: Fortune 500 CEOs, governors, senators, and presidents.
