In case you hadn’t noticed (though I’ve certainly complained about it enough), it’s been a pretty dry Blu-ray season over the past several weeks. Fortunately, things at least marginally pick up today with the release of a few rental-worthy new titles, one cult classic, and even some noteworthy budget discs. Here’s a look at the...

Weekend Movies: Wolves, Ledges and Katherine Heigl

Luke Hickman — Fri, 27 Jan 2012 15:00:22 +0000

The odd thing about this weekend’s releases is that the movie with the thinnest plot is almost certainly going to be the most entertaining of the bunch.

November and December are the busiest months out of the year for reviewers who take part in film critics’ associations. We not only have to screen all the current releases, we also have to cram in every notable film we missed over the year, as well as upcoming awards contenders. Add that on top of...
