The Square - This thriller got some great reviews during its very limited theatrical run, and the trailer looked pretty impressive. On a week where very little quality is being released on DVD, that is more than enough to make it my pick of the week.
Rating: 4 out of 5
Abandoned - This direct-to-DVD release is noteable for one reason; it is the last film Brittany Murphy shot before her sudden death. She still has one other film in post-production, but this one is the last movie she made. That said, I probably won't see this one.
Rating: 2 out of 5
Ajami - This was Israel's entrance for Best Foreign Film at last year's Academy Awards. The reviews are glowing and the trailer looks interesting, so if I ever am in the mood to watch an Israeli film, I will definitely check this one out.
Rating: 4 out of 5
The Back-Up Plan - I honestly don't feel like I need to explain why I'd rather not watch a romantic comedy starring J-Lo.
Rating: 1 out of 5
City Island - This comedy about an Italian family starring Andy Garcia has received some decent reviews. While it didn't really appeal to me, I might still check it out eventually.
Rating: 3 out of 5
Dorian Gray - Apparently the acting in this classic novel adaptation is not very good, and neither is the film according to most critics.
Rating: 2 out of 5
Survival of the Dead - This is the latest from George A. Romero, the master of zombies. While I am a fan of his earlier work, Romero's latest zombie flicks have not measured up. I still am interested, mainly because I love horror films, so I'll probably give this one a shot eventually.
Rating: 3 out of 5
