Is anyone else burned out from the never-ending streak of sequels and remakes? Some are good. Most are not. Sadly, this Memorial Day weekend is filled with rehashes, including three sequels and one rip-off that might as well be a reboot.

I must admit that when I walked into the crowded theater to watch J.J. Abrams’ second journey into the ‘Star Trek’ universe, I was a bit apprehensive. The studio didn’t hold any press screenings before the film was released on Wednesday. For some reason, the actual press screening was one hour later than the regular screening for paying audiences.

Director Baz Luhrmann has created a grand opus filled with shiny costumes, modern music, magical camera tricks and classical early Hollywood filmmaking to once again bring to life F. Scott Fitzgerald’s beloved and iconic novel ‘The Great Gatsby’. The film is over-the-top, lavish and a bit flawed, but so is the title character, after all. The feel and tone of the film is entrancing, as the visuals take us to the early 1920s New York, where we become infatuated with Gatsby and his American dream.

The actor’s new sci-fi flick ‘Oblivion’ is still doing well in theaters, and a movie of his from last year (that you probably haven’t seen) hits video on Tuesday. Also new on Blu-ray, we have an interesting assortment of horror, classics, musicals, guilty pleasures, forgotten treasures and existential mystery. Surely, there must be something in here for you?
