What To Watch?: Blu-ray/DVD Releases Of The Week Recap.

If you are looking for something to watch at home this weekend, here is a recap of the 4 films reviewed  out on Blu-ray and DVD this week. I have arranged them according to the grade they received. There is something for everyone here as long as you are willing to check out some off-the-radar films. If you are interested in any of them specifically each have their own review here in Selective Vision. I've attached the links to those review as well.

1. "The Loved Ones": If horror is your thing this is a great example of how that genre can still surprise us. The story focuses on Lola an isolated and abnormal (to say the least) teenager who always gets the boys she wants, by any means necessary. Lots of gore but with a healthy dose of satire and even a side love story. Grade A-

2. "Where Do We Go Now?" : A Lebanese comedy with a message. In a village dived between Christians and Muslims, the women must try to prevent their men from killing each other by hiding what goes on in the outside world. Very funny and inventive, a touching and memorable film, with some flaws but still worth watching. Grade B+

3. "Elles" : Juliette Binoche is a bourgeoisie journalist who is infatuated with the stories of two young students who use prostitution as their way to pay for school. Bored with her own life the conversations with these women start affecting how she relates to the men in her life. A few sex scenes, artsy, but lacks a bit of heart. Still Binoche is good as always. Side note: this film has just been added to Watch Instantly on Netflix, so if you want to watch it risk free or just give it a chance now its easier. Grade C.

4. "Snow White And The Huntsman" : This is the film with the highest profile on the list, with popular  young starts, and A-listers as Theron, but still is bland and cliched. The story you already new just with not so great CGI and a big budget. The highlight is Charlize Theron who gives a one of a kind performance as Queen Ravenna. If you must watched it is out now. Grade C-
