TYLER’s TALKS

The NHL playoffs have reached the Stanley Cup finals and very few people would have predicted that it would be the New Jersey Devils and Los Angeles Kings playing for the cup. I guess you could say they were underdogs. Speaking of underdogs, this week’s batch of new releases features the story of a rugged hockey player as he rises the ranks to protect a prized draft pick. There are a total of five new releases this week. Here they are in more detail;

NEW RELEASES on DVD & BLU-RAY

Goon: starring Sean William Scott and Live Schreiber– A goon from the minors is called up to help protect a prized draft pick who has been repeatedly injured by the league’s tough guys. (Comedy) (DVD and Blu-Ray) (CLICK PLAY on the video below to watch the trailer for GOON – It’s AWESOME!)

There Be Dragons: starring Wes Bentley– While investigating the story of a man of the verge of becoming a saint, a journalist discovers that his father has a deep dark secret. (Drama) (DVD)

We Need to Talk about Kevin: starring Tilda Swinton and Ezra Miller- A mother copes with the increasingly erratic, odd and frightening behavior of her son as he grows from a child to a teenager. (Drama) (DVD and Blu-Ray)

Aggression Scale: starring Ray Wise– When two professional hitmen are sent to a house to collect a debt, they encounter the homeowners children; who are heavily armed and ready to fight. (Action) (DVD)

Calvin Marshall: starring Alex Frost and Steve Zahn- A college student is determined to become a professional baseball player. The problem- he has no baseball skills. (Comedy) (Drama)
