New Release DVDs-January 20

Its Monday and it means tomorrow is another day in DVD releases. Every Monday we bring you the movies you should skip, rent or buy on DVD!
Today we have four titles that include a underground city which needs more sunlight on its release date! How much sharp points does a saw have? Well that's how much Saw movies were probably going to have. Demons, a let down movie overall and Mark Wahlberg in another horrible made game into movie. And a inspirational story that inspires us all.



Max Payne

DVD of the week!

Hour and 30 minutes run time.

DVD Rating: Rent it

PG-13


It was a close one with City Of Ember being the DVD of the week, but I think you better watch Max Payne instead of City. As I Pretty much hatted this movie, many will like the action scenes and the situations with the demons. Rent it, or if you do not have time borrow it or wait till TV in about 2 years.



City of Ember

DVD Rating: Rent it

Hour and 25minute run time

Bill Murray is the only known actor

PG


Many will just skip this PG rated movie, but I liked it. It was not what I expected at all! It is a fantasy, drama movie that is somewhat entertaining the first 20 minutes and then the last flirty or so. So it was too long in reality of the movie, which is already short. I would say rent it and if not wait till it comes out on TV.




The Express

DVD rating:





2 hours and 10 minutes


P-13

Dennis Quaid


Its no Remember The Titans, but it is alright if you like a inspirational true story. I personally did not like it and would say skip it. The movie drags on even through they proved a point they do it again and again.



Saw whatever
DVD Rating:





Rated R


If you are a fan you may want to watch this 5th one. If you are not a fan and did not watch none of the others DO NOT watch this one please! Watch Saw the original and do not watch any of the other ones. I hated this one! Can't wait for 6

Defiance Review: Nothing too special


Rating: Wait till DVD or if you have time, go ahead. Why? Read more to find out

About: Three Jewish s' brothers trying to survive the Nazis, but soon find out that they must not only help themselves but others.

Movie Info
Length of movie: 2 hours and 17 minutes
Rated R for Violence and Language. Pretty Graphic!

Starting
Daniel Craig (last 2 007 movies), Levi Schreiber (Omen and The Manchurian Candidate) and James Bell (Jumper) as the three brothers
No Spoilers present in the review.





If you absolutely lost everything from your parents to your wife and children, what would you do? Would you go fight and kill blood for blood or would you instead help other Jews so this would not happen to no other family? Well its a reality for Tuvia Bielski (Daniel Craig) and Zus Bielski ( Levi Schreiber) both Jewish brothers who lost both parents and wife's and children to Nazi soldiers.

The Three brothers have the revenge factor in them,but as Tuvia kills their parents killer he soons learns that killing is not so sweet. He soon trys to redeem himself by bringing in more and more Jews to join them in the survival in the forest. As Zus sees this as more mouths to feed and the more we will slow down and be caught by the Nazis. The drama starts there and soon escalates as far as Zus leaving and joining a Anti-Nazi army that is also in the forest, fighting instead of surviving. Of course you can not forget Asael Bielski ( James Bell) trying to gain some respect from his brothers, just a shy little brother he plays.

Defiance lacks in drama, don't get me wrong, it has plenty of useless drama situations. We seen it all happen before, leader gets the people, leader becomes sick, others try becoming leader, leader is well and tells them they are not animals but humans. The beginning also makes you fell for these brothers in which I did, but it was like it was forced. The action scene were alright, the ending action scene was amazing.

Your probably thinking, if its so bad why watch it? Well its not that bad! Yes it has some flaws in trying to tell the story and useless themes that I did not care but the acting was very well done. The connection and interconnection the brothers had is what made watching this entertaining. If only they were on the screen longer and had issues together then it would be another story. Wait for it on DVD or if you must watch a movie this week watch Gran Torino which is a more powerful drama movie and better movie. Not worth a admission to a movie theater!

Five Movies You must watch in 2009

2009 is starting and what better way to start it by telling you the five top movies you must watch in 2009!




5- Year one

A movie me and you have almost no information about stars jack Black and Michael Cera as Zed and Oh. Hunter-gathers who are banished from their village and wander through scenes from the Old Testament. If Jack Black is in it, then you should know that this is going to be a class act comedy film. we might not know too much information at the time, but this is a must for any fan for laughs! Release date : June 5, 2009


4- Up
Pixer has made many classic films from Monsters inc, Incredibles, Toy Story and Wall E. They are at it again with Up, telling a story of a senior citizen trying to escape his boring life by millions of balloons. But not knowing that a eight year kid had clenched a ticket with him . A trailer has surfaced for this movie and it looks Amazing. You must be nuts if you are planning to skip this one. Release Date: May 9, 2009


The Next 3 on my countdown are pure Hardcore action movies! I had to!


3- Terminator Salvation
Unbelievable! I thought surely they would stop on number three since almost everyone thought the third was a disaster, which I loved. All Terminator movies and somewhat the TV show were entertaining to watch! Think this is the last movie of the franchise? Well you are terribly wrong, the producers already signed on for at least 2 more movies! So we will see more bots being bad ass and coming from the future! OH YEAH! This is a Must for any fan of Terminator, and if you lost some parts, this is a perfect time to go watch the movie when it will release! Don't believe me, well go take a look at the trailer for yourself! Release Date: May 22, 2009





2- Watchman
Watching the very first trailer for watchman, I hated it. I did not like the movie at all. I have not read the comics on it. The latest trailer was released and getting more information on the film made Watchman Number two for movies you Must Watch In 2009. Release date: March 6, 2009









And the Number one Movies you Must Watch in 2009!!!







1- X-Men Origins: Wolverine and Star Trek
Ya ya.. I know I picked two movies but I had to! The best moment in The Day The Earth Stood Still was when they showed the bad crazy trailer for Wolverine! Not only did I go numb all over and but goosebumps flooded my body from head to toe! If you have not seen the trailer, then go search for it and watch it immediately! The trailer is perfectly made and flows with cinema to its best! That's why Wolverine Is the Number One Movie You should NOT miss in 2009. Everywhere May 1st

From absolutely never watching to number one is something to cheer about Star Trek! Let me explain, I never watched a episode or watched any Star Trek ever in the past, as for the future, May 8, 2009 will be a different story. That's right, the little teaser that played way back in the summer, which I hated did not help until i seen the trailer. I fell in love, not will Star Trek, but Star Trek The Movie! I can not wait! The action, the tension.. I can fell it now! May 8Th everywhere!
