New on DVD 1/31 - View on Film

Greetings!  Here's what's new this week....at bit of a mixed bag....with one critical darling that I thought was OK.  Looking for to finally seeing George Clooney's "The Descendants" this week.  (It finally open here in SW Washington State)  I'll have my review on it Friday....but first, here's what's new this week.

Drive- 

A very strange, and interesting movie starring rising star Ryan Gosling.  Great performances from him, Albert Brooks and Bryan Cranston.  It's good, but not outstanding.  It is also extremely violent.















Original Review- Need to logged onto Facebook to see.

In Time-

Justin Timberlake stars in a parable for current times, as the wealthy are more or less immortal, and the poor must beg, borrow and steal just to live.  Rotten Tomatoes.com gives it a low 37% Fresh Rating.













The Thing (2011)-

In the "Why did they do a remake" category, we get the third version of "The Thing".  Rotten Tomatoes.com gives it a low 35% Fresh Rating.  Instead of this, rent out 1982's The Thing starring Kurt Russell.  An excellent film.

Have a great week!

Cheers!
