Of course the biggest DVD news for this week is the release of Heroes Season 2. If you haven’t followed the show at all, then grab season 1 and this new release and get caught up now with one of the best shows on television. Trust me. As for other movies out this week, What Happens in Vegas looks like a pretty decent comedy and Redbelt looks like some action. The reason I’m real interested in Redbelt is that it was directed by David Mamet (CBS’s The Unit and the movie Spartan) and it’s very much of a Jiu-Jitsu movie. I’m a UFC fan so I’m going to have to see it

Recount and Street Kings seem like pretty good offerings for this week’s DVD releases, although I really know very little about either of them. The previews I’ve seen for Street Kings just has that Training Day vibe to it though, so I’ll probably like it. People knock Keanu for his acting ability (or lack thereof) but I’ll admit that I actually like the guy.

Now, a quick side note that if you didn’t see the very awesome Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles last season on FOX, then now is your chance. It was absolutely excellent and probably one of the few series from television that was actually worth buying the DVD set.

This week doesn’t have anything that I would term as “must see” so it’s a good week to catch up on anything you might have missed. We do get treated to The Art of War II with Wesley Snipes and honestly, I really like him and I’m sure I’ll end up seeing it. I’m also intrigued by the movie Felon for some reason. It’s got an interesting description and has two good actors with Stephen Dorff and Val Kilmer. It might suck, but I’ll risk it because I’ve watch The Saint like 500 times and I owe Val a break. Smart People just has a slew of great stars and is probably the gemstone of this week’s releases.

Not a great week for DVDs, but I am looking forward to checking out Nim’s Island. For something so bad that it possibly will be good I think Starship Troopers 3: Marauder might be the golden ticket. The second movie sucked, but the first one is a classic.

New for this week is (and how could I avoid it?) Avatar, The Last Airbender: Book 3 Fire, Volume 4. It seems like this has been a hot topic lately so all you rabid fans can go have some happiness for a bit. I was a bit surprised that Harold & Kumar Escape From Guantanamo is already out on DVD, which probably means it’s not that great. I’ll see it anyway though because I love those guys.

Finally, there’s a couple old-school flashback movies that some people might want to see for whatever reason. Lost Boys: The Tribe mainly to see the Frog Brothers back in action killing vampires and War Games: The Dead Code, which is an updated version/sequel to the original with Matthew Broderick.

This week the top of the list to see would be The Bank Job with Jason Statham. I’ve heard it was a really great movie. Another movie that looks pretty good is Meet Bill, but maybe that’s because it’s got Jessica Alba in it. Finally, for the family there’s Penelope that has a bunch of great stars and sounds like a decent fairy tale about a girl with a pig nose.

This week the Japanese animated Batman: Gotham Knight comes out and I know there’s a big following that wants to get their Batman fix before Batman: The Dark Knight hits the screen. The clips I’ve see are very good and there is multiple animation styles that should be interesting.

Other good movies this week include the war drama Stop-Loss and the wacky, zany Superhero Movie. I have no idea why I want to see that movie, but I do. I really don’t know much about The Ruins or Sleepwalking, but they both look fairly decent.

The top movies out for this week are definitely Vantage Point and probably the (hopefully funny) Drillbit Taylor. I really don’t know anything about My Blueberry Nights or Get Smart’s Bruce and Lloyd: Out of Control and yet, they look possibly appealing. The last one main because it has Masi Oka from Heroes. I’m not sure if it’s supposed to be some spin-off from the Get Smart movie our what though. Seems like it.

• City of Men
• The Closer: The Complete Third Season
• Drillbit Taylor
• Get Smart’s Bruce and Lloyd: Out of Control
