Romantic Endeavors
Julie (Jennifer Westfeldt) and Jason (Adam Scott) have been best friends for years in Friends with Kids.
They're both single, have no serious relationship prospects, and all of
their friends have children... so they decide to platonically have a
baby together. Inspired by their friends Alex and Leslie
(Maya Rudolph and
Chris O'Dowd), whose life has been turned upside-down by toddlers, and Missy and Ben (Kristen Wiig and Jon Hamm) whose once-insatiable sex life turned to coldness and sniping after they had kids,
their plan is: if they have a baby outside of a great romance, the child won't cause any
relationship damage.
They're doing well together, with Jason meeting a dancer (Megan Fox) and Julie dating a stable, handsome professional (Edward Burns), but having a baby together complicates their lives in ways they couldn't predict.
On DVD and Blu-Ray.When Harriet (Emily Blunt), a consultant for a wealthy Yemeni sheikh (Amr Waked), contacts fisheries expert Fred (Ewan McGregor) about populating rivers in Yemen with salmon, he laughs Harriet out of his office in Lasse Hallstrom's Salmon Fishing in the Yemen. Unfortunately for Fred, the Prime Minister's press secretary (Kristin Scott Thomas) needs a positive British/Middle East story and he finds himself in the middle of a near-impossible task. Working in Yemen distances Fred from the troubled relationship with his wife (Rachael Stirling) and Harriet is separated from her deployed soldier boyfriend (Tom Mison), so all they have is each other. As they start to do what everyone said couldn't be done, they begin to question what is and isn't possible. On DVD and Blu-Ray.
South of the Border
Armando Alvarez (Will Ferrell) is not too bright, but he's earnest, and devoted to his father (Pedro Armendariz Jr) and the family ranch in the Spanish-language Casa de mi Padre. Though the ranch is in financial trouble, Armando's wealthy businessman brother Raul (Diego Luna) comes home to help... but in reality, Raul is a drug dealer, and his return brings the fearsome drug lord Onza (Gael Garcia Bernal) to their doorstep. Set against the campy high drama of the telenovella
style, Armando has to rise up and defend his homestead, usually in
front of painted backdrops, bad lighting, and terrible special effects,
and he's just the kind of underdog hero that could save the day and get
the girl (Genesis Rodriguez). On DVD and Blu-Ray.A veteran thief pursued by the cops, Mel Gibson's getaway car crashes through the border and lands him in the custody of the Mexican authorities in Get the Gringo. Incarcerated in an open-air prison, a kind of walled city, the nameless Gringo has to maneuver to survive, playing alpha-criminal Javi (Dabuek Gimenez Cacho) and his enforcer brother (Jesus Ochoa) against crooked American Frank (Peter Stormare). If he can manage his A Fistful of Dollar schemes, survive the guns and grenades, he might be able to secure his freedom; if he's just a little quicker, he might be able to save his friends on the inside as well. On DVD and Blu-Ray.
PG Comedy
Resurrecting the slapstick trio for a new film outing, The Farrelly Brothers's The Three Stooges drops three infants at the doorstep of an orphanage and has them grow up to become Larry, Moe, and Curly (Sean Hayes, Chris Diamantopoulos, and Will Sasso).
Being the Three Stooges makes them unadoptable, and they're still
living at the orphanage as grown men when they find out the orphanage
will be shut down due to money troubles. The boys head out into the
world to raise money, but they've only ever known children and nuns, so
they're not prepared for a femme fatale (Sofia Vergara) here scheming boyfriend (Craig Bierko).
Luckily, Larry, Moe, and Curly cause enough random destruction to drive
away anyone that could hurt them, but they're still not very good at
raising money. On DVD and Blu-Ray. Action in Space
In 2079, the president's daughter (Maggie Grace) is reporting on an orbiting prison when the inmates get loose in Lockout. The secret service director (Peter Stormare) has no choice but to send in Snow (Guy Pearce), already on his way to prison for killing another agent, to save the day. Snow is a wise-cracking, unflappable, unkillable operative... but this mission might be too much, even for him. Every murderous, insane, and uncontrollable inmate
of the floating prison has been set free, and they're led by a ruthless killer (Vincent Regan) and his loony brother (Joseph Gilgun).
Worse, with the prison's crew killed in the riots, the orbiting prison
will crash into the Earth in a matter of hours, giving Snow very little
time to rescue the first daughter, Snake Plissken-style, and get out
before the whole prison comes crashing down. On DVD and Blu-Ray. Darkness
The story of two children who see a faceless tormentor, Intruders juxtaposes 12-year-old Mia and her father John (Clive Owen) in Britain and 8-year-old Juan and his mother Susanna (Carice van Houten) in Spain. As the children are traumatized by the faceless specter called Hollowface, their parents are drawn in, not sure if they can believe the ghost stories until they see the hooded figure themselves. As they investigate further, the truth of Hollowface comes to the surface, and the tragic relationship between Juan and Mia becomes clear. On DVD and Blu-Ray.On the final day of human life on planet earth, Cisco (Willem Dafoe) and Skye (Shanyn Leigh) spend time in their artist loft in 4:44: Last Day on Earth. With nothing to do and no way out, humanity ticks on like normal... the couple see the occasional jumper, and watch the news go off the air, but Cisco, Sky, and the everyone else embrace the final day, and wait for the end of the world.
Toru (Ken'ichi Matsuyama) is struggling to deal with his best friend's suicide in 1960s Japan in Tran Anh Hung's Norwegian Wood. His troubles are put into perspective by Naoko (Rinko Kikuchi), his friend's widowed girlfriend, a free spirit who sees life very differently from Toru. When she vanishes from his life, Toru discovers the layers of grief and understanding run deeper than he ever imagined.
Set over the course of one night as day breaks into morning, the Turkish Once upon a Time in Anatolia follows a convoy of official vehicles across arid hills. The convoy is transporting murder suspects about to plead guilty, but as they guide their captors to find victims, their destination gets muddled. As the suspects and the police work their way through the night, their greater motives, personalities, and fates begin to emerge.
