It's a slow week for blockbuster new releases, but it's a big week for catalog titles. So rather than focus on the new day-and-date movies like Splinter, we will take a look at the awaited older titles. One that we really enjoyed the first time around is 8 Mile, but there is also Mean Girls as well as The Last Kiss. More documentaries are making their way to Blu-ray and one of our favorite sources (PBS) has The Story of India -- although we'd rather see more episodes of Nova and Nature. Next week is already looking better though as there are a few X-Men movies as well as another instant classic, Sin City. - Splinter (Magnolia)
- Strange Wilderness (Paramount)
- Mean Girls (Paramount)
- The Last Kiss (Paramount)
- The Thirteenth Floor (Sony)
- Universal Soldier: The Return (Sony)
- 8 Mile (Universal)
- The Spirit (Lionsgate)
- Deep Sea (Warner)
- Pride & Prejudice (A&E)
- Cranford (BBC)
- The Story of India (PBS)
- Living Landscapes: Earthscapes - Wild Africa (Allegro)

I liked it, and so did those who saw it with me. However, everything I hear is that most people hated- I mean, HATED, it. I think it's all about expectation. If you want another 300 or Sin City, you were dissappointed. If you just went in with an open mind, I think it was surprisingly entertaining.
