Fred's Film Findings 7/24/09

Hi, my name is Fred and I'm the manager of Coastal Video and Books. I will be writing a weekly report of whats hot and whats not in the world of DVD. I will even try to be fair and balanced in my critique (or in some cases rants). Now that's out of the way, let's get started!

Coming Tuesday the 28th we have:

Fast and Furious starring the cast from the original (Vin Diesel and Paul Walker). In my opinion it's as good or better than the first one.When the fugitive Vin Diesel returns to Los Angeles to avenge a loved ones death he restarts his old fued between him and Paul Walker. The action scenes are excellent. I give it 3 1/2 out of 5 stars. Note to parents: the movie is PG-13 for Intense scenes of action and violence, sexual content and drugs.

Next on my list is a movie called Angel of Death starring Zoe Bell of "Death Proof". She was also the stunt double for Uma Thurman in "Kill Bill". Eve (Bell) is an assassin with no remorse until one botched hit changes everything. She starts to think about the people she has killed and beings to feel remorse. She wants to change her life, but the people she works for won't let her go. This means... she has to take out her bosses. Note to parents: This film is unrated and is extremly violent.The language is rough and it is made for people 17 and over.

The next title we have is the Raunchy comedy Miss March about Eugene Tucker, two best friends who embark on a hilarious cross-country road trip to the Playboy mansion, and Cindi, Eugene's gorgeous girlfriend turned centerfold. Note to parents: The DVD comes in two versions. Rated R for Strong crude and sexual content, nudity, pervasive language and drug use and Unrated which contains more of the same. 17 and older.

The final movie we have Tuesday is the action film Dragonball Z : Evolution (based on the bestselling manga series). It's packed with spectacular visual effects, high flying action, and over an hour of hard hitting extra's. It brings the legend to life as never before. Rated PG for action and brief mild language.

Well thats all this week. I'll be back again next week to review more titles and give you some lesser known films that I have enjoyed. Have a great week and drop by any of our locations for the largest film libary on the coast! Leave me a comment, let me know what you want to know about!
