New DVD Releases for 22 April 2008
- Cloverfield
This is really the only one I need to spotlight, isn’t it? Looks really cool if you can stomach the hand-held camera throughout.
- Charlie Wilson’s War
Tom Hanks went on Oprah’s show to promote this, so you know it’s a feel-good romantic comedy, right?!? ;-)
And that’s it. Sad, isn’t it?

I saw Cloverfield in the theater and really enjoyed it. I personally didn’t get sick, but I know my sister certainly felt a little queasy. I would imagine on a smaller screen this would be more manageable for those who may be sensitive. I have been debating buying this on DVD, but decided to wait for the eventual Blu-ray release.

Charlie Wilson’s war is brilliant. Fantastic dialogue/script, great acting, and largely a-political, which is refreshing.

Also out this week is Season 2 of Friday Night Lights. LOVE. IT.

Never watch Blair Witch Project for the herky jerky camera action and don’t anticipate watching Cloverfield because of that same reason. It’s a bummer though, I really was intrigued for the first few bits of viral marketing for the movie.

Cloverfield came to REAL close to making me hurl when I saw it in the theaters. Although I understand why the had the shaky-cam, it was a gimmick that wore thin real fast and got incredibly annoying even faster.
That having been said, it’s a GREAT monster flick. Loved it.
