Cowboys
In Gore Verbinski's first animated movie, Rango (Johnny Depp) seems like just the kind of hero a troubled desert town needs. His tales of wild west adventures are enough to give hope to the townsfolk and have the mayor (Ned Beatty) pin a sheriff's star to his chest... but a Isla Fisher needs him to solve the most important problem in a desert town: there's no more water. With the town on the verge of collapse, a conspiracy around the water, and a mercenary gunfighter (Bill Nighy) ready to take him down, Rango still has a bigger problem: he's a pet chameleon who's never been out of his tank before. Shot like a classic western, Rango is the first animated film rendered by Industrial Light and Magic, with a completely unique animation style. On DVD and Blu-Ray.Dax Shepard tries to reinvent himself (I'm Not Here style) in the mockumentary Brother's Justice. Done with comedy, Shepard has decided to become a martial arts action hero ("like Chuck Norris!") and make a movie called Brother's Justice. He calls in favors from directors he knows (Jon Favreau) or someone who might be able to get James Cameron on the phone (Tom Arnold), but he quickly burns through his connections with a project that no one else believes in. With David Koechner.

With William H. Macy and Marisa Tomei. On DVD and Blu-Ray.

On DVD and Blu-Ray.
