Review: Knight and Day
I was initially drawn to the Knight and Day based largely on how it appeared to offer a vibe similar to that of one of my all-time favorites Grosse Pointe Blank. That subtle/dark humor that has a main character acting so calm and confident through even the most ridiculous of situations while maintaining that all of it is pretty much normal is at the heart of both films. It works just as well here as it did back then though in a much more action-packed scenario. In Knight and Day the main ch...

Sony has released the first trailer for the big screen adaptation of the TV series The Green Hornet. Seth Rogen stars as Britt Reid (Green Hornet) along with Jay Chau as Kato and Cameron Diaz as Leonore Case. The movie has some terrible buzz going for it which was largely the reason it got bumped out of the holiday season and will carry with it completely unnecessary 3D. This trailer though makes it look like it could be a fun ride.The Green Hornet is slated to release on January 14th 2011. ...

Paramount No Longer Delaying Movies for Rental from Redbox
I've written on numerous occasions about the DVD rental delay period that Hollywood planned to institute as a means to try and increase DVD sales. From all the way back when it was just an idea I never understood the logic that people would buy a DVD they wouldn't have otherwise just to avoid waiting a month to rent it. Back in early January is when Netflix and Redbox began with delays that were essentially being forced on them in order to survive. It now appears that at least one studio ha...

Although there are only a handful of Blu-ray movies releasing this week, there are two in particular that are worth seeing.

Both films received 'Fresh Ratings' on Rottentomatoes.com. Also worth noting is the release of the 6th season of Entourage on DVD. Here is the full release schedule broken up by standard DVD and Blu-ray:...
