DATE NIGHT and more in this week’s DVD and Blu-ray releases
WHAT’S NEW & COOL THIS WEEK:
Need an idea for a date night for you and your lover this week? Luckily, the rom-com with an action twist, DATE NIGHT starring Steve Carrell and Tina Fey, hits shelves for you to laugh at over dinner and a movie at home. Also out this week is the clever indie concept film THE JONESES, starring David Duchovny and Demi Moore as a married couple whose relationship is a sham of different sorts.
THE TITLE-O-THE WEEK I’LL BE RUSHING OUT TO BUY:
As a baby of the 80s, I was a huge fan of the TV series Max Headroom, which saw a near future in which investigative TV reporter uncovered stories and scoops with the help of a computerized version of himself. With the entire series hitting literal and virtual DVD shelves this week, I'm excited to take a blast to the past by revisiting a future the proposed the idea that I could have a digital version of myself review films like the DEATH OF A FUNERAL remake so I didn't have to (which also happens to be out this week).
