This week: Finally, a movie you can sink a few teeth into (or vice-versa). Synopsis: large mutant reptile attacks Tokyo, eats Suzuki 1956 Suzulights for breakfast. Nothing left but nine scrawny blu-rays, & utter chaos. Oh, it's beautiful...

Hero - Special Edition (2-Disc w/ DVD + Digital Copy) ~ Maggie Cheung, Jet Li, Tony Leung Chiu-Wai, Chen Daoming (2009)
This HD English dubbed version of the Best Foreign Language Film nominee is rattling some people's swords... but if you can live with a lossy DD5.1 of the original Chinese audio track, this is a 5 star must see.
