You Don't Mess with the Zohan on DVD

Wikipedia: "The film is about Zohan Dvir (Hebrew: זוהאן דביר), Israel's hero and its greatest counter-terrorism army commando who, after growing tired of his Israeli post-draft's standing service, fakes his own death in order to pursue his dream: becoming a hairstylist in New York City. The story was written by Sandler, Judd Apatow, and Robert Smigel."

Silly slapstick and probably offensive to just about everyone. Enjoy!

Burn After Reading on DVD

Jacket: "An all-star cast, including George Clooney, Brad Pitt, Frances McDormand, Tilda Swinton and John Malkovich, come together in this outrageous spy comedy about murder, blackmail, sex addiction and physical fitness!

When a disc filled with some of the CIA's most irrelevant secrets gets in the hands of two determined, but dim-witted, gym employees, the duo are intent on exploiting their find. But since blackmail is a trade better left for the experts, events soon spiral out of everyone's and anyone's control, resulting in a non-stop series of hilarious encounters!"

This is the kind of film you have to watch a couple of times to fully appreciate. On to the second viewing.

The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor on DVD

IMDb: "In the Far East, trouble-seeking father-and-son duo Rick and Alex O'Connell unearth the mummy of the first Emperor of Qin -- a shape-shifting entity who was cursed by a wizard centuries ago."

Oh why do they keep making sequels! This was painful to sit through.

Mama Mia on DVD

We were just curious to find out who the father was! This is for the die-hard musical fans.

Traitor on DVD

Jacket: "[This is] a taut internatioal thriller set against a puzzle of covert counter-espionage operations.

When straight-arrow FBI agent Roy Clayton (Guy Pearce) investigates a dangerous international conspiracy responsible for a prison break in Yemen, a bombing in Nice and a raid in London, all clues seem to lead back to former U.S. Special Operations officer, Samir Horn (Don Cheadle). But a tangle of contradictory evidence emerges, forcing Clayton to question whether his suspect is a disaffected former military operative - or something far more complicated.

Obsessed with discovering the truth, Clayton tracks Horn across the globe as the elusive ex-soldier burrows deeper and deeper into a world of shadows and intrigue."

This is definitely worth seeing. Yes, the truth is complicated.

The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane by Kate DiCamillo

Official Site: "Once, in a house on Egypt Street, there lived a china rabbit named Edward Tulane. The rabbit was very pleased with himself, and for good reason: he was owned by a girl named Abilene, who treated him with the utmost care and adored him completely. And then, one day, he was lost.

Kate DiCamillo takes us on an extraordinary journey, from the depths of the ocean to the net of a fisherman, from the top of a garbage heap to the fireside of a hobos camp, from the bedside of an ailing child to the bustling streets of Memphis. And along the way, we are shown a true miracle: even a heart of the most breakable kind can learn to love, to lose, and to love again."

This is an AMAZING story! Already a classic with children and adults alike, and now I know why. This is a story you have to read again and again.

Eagle Eye on DVD

Jacket: "... Shia LeBeouf and Michelle Monaghan star as strangers ripped from their ordinary lives when thy are "activated" as part of a high-tech assassination plot. Through blistering chases and shocking twists they try to escape - but where do you go when the enemy is everywhere?"

Think modern-day "War Games." 

Ghost Town

Jacket: "A spirited romantic comedy, Ghost Town is the story of Bertram Pincus (Ricky Gervais), a cranky Manhattan dentist who develops the unwelcomed ability to see dead people. But when a smooth-talking ghost (Kinnear) traps Bertram into a romantic scheme involving his widow Gwen (Tea Leoni), they become entangled in a hilarious predicament between the now an the hereafter!"

This was pretty funny, but when isn't Ricky Gervais. Watch for the scene when Tea accidentally calls him by his real name, Ricky.

Maldeamores (Lovesickness) on DVD

Jacket: "From executive producer Benicio del Toro comes a film about love at all ages. A child's first kiss. A man who can't grasp rejection. An elderly love affair. Passion defeats reason again and again in this film about the eternal search for love."

You'll be roaring with laughter by the first scene. This is a film about the reality of love. At every age it's different and at times it isn't pretty.

I definitely want to see more Puerto Rican films like this!!
