If you look close enough at this week’s list, you’ll see a handful of similarities to new Blu-ray releases to movies that are either now in theaters or will soon be this month! Could it be that new “Conan” and “Spy Kids” movies are around the corner? Sadly (most likely), yes. Is there currently a high-concept Western out in theaters right now? Might as well give folks an example of quality Westerns then with some Sergio Leon and “The Magnificent Seven”. As for mainstream family films, you can ruffle your feathers with “Rio” or sink your teeth into “Soul Surfer” (released during “Shark Week”, nice touch). Out of all these titles, I am anticipating finally catching up with both “The Music Never Stopped” and “Stakeland”, two films that received solid reviews, yet barely made a blip on any theatrical radar.
As usual, reviews (or in this case review) are highlighted and linked below.
