The Girl with the Drag of a Tattoo
* The Last Stand, teaming Arnold Schwarzenegger with awesome director Jee-woon Kim. It's not as good as his Korean movies, but it's better than most Arnie movies.
* Mama, starring recent Golden Globe winner Jessica Chastain. She had a whole week to enjoy her win before this stinker hit. Notice how they didn't even mention it when she was on The Daily Show this week? It's because it's awful.
UPDATED TO CRITERION CONFESSIONS...
* Godzilla, the original Japanese version gives us a monster movie with a brain.
THIS WEEK IN BD/DVD REVIEWS...
* Doctor Zhivago. Not the good David Lean version, but the boring 2002 TV version.
* The Quiet Man, John Ford's romantic classic starring John Wayne and Maureen O'Hara is now a stunning Blu-Ray release.
* Searching for Sugar Man, one of 2012's best documentaries is also a great rock-'n'-roll story.
Current Soundtrack: A$ap Rocky, LONG.LIVE.A$AP; The Trash Can Sinatras, I've Seen Everything
