Top 10 New Releases on Blu Ray
Blu-ray10.evjoy.com : January 12th, 2010 - Welcome!


This week: Duchovny's a very confused man, Stallone's clinging to life, Rachel Weisz is riding a unicycle while balancing two chainsaws, & Sam Rockwell might see you and several other creepier things on the far side of the Moon. (Stick with us; there's no dark side of it after all...)

1.

3.
8 1/2 (Criterion Collection) ~ Marcello Mastroianni, Anouk Aimée, Claudia Cardinale, and Sandra Milo (2010)
"The marriage of Fellini's hyperreal imagery, dreamy sidebars, and the gravity of Guido's (Marcello Mastroianni) increasing self-awareness make this as much a deeply moving, soulful film as it is an electrifying spectacle."  --Tom Keogh
