THE RUM DIARY (2011) - Trailer

Official Synopsis: The Rum Diary tells the increasingly unhinged story of itinerant journalist Paul Kemp (Depp). Tired of the noise and madness of New York and the crushing conventions of late Eisenhower-era America, Kemp travels to the pristine island of Puerto Rico to write for a local San Juan newspaper run by the downtrodden editor Lotterman (Jenkins). Adopting the rum-soaked lifestyle of the late ‘50s version of Hemingway’s “The Lost Generation,” Paul soon becomes entangled with a very attractive American woman, Chenault (Heard) and her fiancée Sanderson (Eckhart), a businessman involved in shady property development deals. It is within this world that Kemp ultimately discovers his true voice as a writer and integrity as a man.

New on DVD/Blu-Ray : BATTLE LOS ANGELES (2011)

Since alien invasion movies are back in style, the studios and filmmakers are giving sci-fi a try these days. Nevermind "Super 8". This is the dumber, but highly volatile counterpart to J.J Abrams' more subtle blockbuster. This movie is all about big explosions and fancy CGI. Forget plot, forget acting, forget smart dialogue. Hell, even forget clever production design. This is all about blowing a big hole in the world. And for what it is, it's a lot of fun. Mix all that with a sort of fake realism that tries to combine "The Hurt Locker" and "Independence Day", and you get "Battle: Los Angeles". If you like your thrills brainless and excessive, give this movie a try. Plenty of Special Features on both the Blu-Ray and DVD.
