This Week’s DVD Releases

This week brings yet another terrible car-based action film with Nicolas Cage, Drive Angry, and Javier Bardem's second Oscar-nominated performance in Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu's Biutiful. Meanwhile, Kaboom is a perfectly serviceable sex and drug-fueled midnight film from Gregg Araki. But probably the most anticipated release this week is the third season of True Blood, even though Alan Ball's HBO vampire series long ago jumped the shark to so trashy bad it’s good.

It's a good thing SIFF starts soon, because we are well within another dry spell in new releases.

The films coming out on DVD right now are pretty fair, all things considered. Some Oscar nominees, some blockbusters, and a whole lot of TV on DVD.

This week's big release is Black Swan, which y'all know I did not think deserved all the accolades and awards. My issues with the film are myriad, but to keep it simple, I'd quote the Thermals and say it's "hardly art, hardly garbage," in that the film is too trashy to be high art and too artsy to be a campy ballet romp.
