DVDs Or Death!

There's a lot coming out on DVD this week. That's right, it's time for DVDs Or Death!


The Bank Job.

Brief Synopsis: True Story Of A Bank Robbery Gone Bad.

Comments:
Saw it in theater, and it irked me then. I'm a fan of heist films, as I've said numerous times already, but there was just something about the movie I didn't care for.

Viewing Option:
T.V.


Penelope.

Brief Synopsis: Girl With Pig Nose Discovers True Love And Inner Beauty.

Comments:
I just thought the movie looked weird. It didn't come to my theater, and it got a bunch of bad review, so I dunno...

Viewing Option:
T.V.


College Road Trip.

Brief Synopsis: A Girl's Overprotective Father Takes Her On College Road Trip.

Comments:
Didn't care to see it in theater, don't care to now.

Viewing Option:
Skip.


Step Up 2 The Streets.

Brief Synopsis: Dance Movie With Cool... Dancing.

Comments:
I was interested when it came to theater, but never saw it. This isn't the kind of movie you see for the plot or characters, but for the choreography and dancing. And I am a fan of watching dancing, and the trailer showed some really cool looking stuff.

Viewing Option:
Rent.


Shutter.

Brief Synopsis: Yet Another Japanese Horror Remake. They're All The Same. (Bad).

Comments:
Didn't care when it came out, and I don't care now.

Viewing Option:
Skip.


Secretary.

Brief Synopsis: Re-Release Of Cult Classic That Has Maggie Gyllenhaal Naked A Lot.

Comments:
Who wouldn't want that? I still have yet to see this movie, though, and I'll check it out at some point, but I'm in no rush.

Viewing Option:
T.V.

  1. Bank Job is a pretty good heist movie. A recommend.

  2. Mike: There were parts of The Bank Job I liked, don't get me wrong... just search for my review of it to see my full thoughts. The movie itself, though, really didn't flow well with me for some reason.

  3. I'm with Nick. The Bank Job struck me as a totally average movie. Not good, not bad - nothing stood out, and it's totally forgettable.

    Surprisingly enough, I liked Penelope. Not great, but worth a watch on a lazy weekend afternoon. Great song by Sigur Ros closes it out.

  4. I didn't have high expectations going in, so I was pleasantly surprised that it was not just another Jason Statham vehicle.

    Plus Saffron Burrows is hot.
