'Chloe' on DVD and Blu Ray: **1/2stars

'chloe' is not just another psycho-sexual drama. it's psycho-sexual drama with a twist. and it is twisted just enough for me to recommend it.

the casting of julianne moore and liam neeson was more surprising than genius. although they both handed in good performances it was somewhat disturbing to see them in these parts. really it was!

i can understand why amanda seyfried would sign on for the film. it's more dramatic fare than her previous turns and was an obvious image changer. she does succeed on both the dramatic stretch and the image change. she shows the talent she showed each season on 'big love' that most of her big screen roles didn't utilize. and i can now almost forgive her for 'dear john'.

it's not going to be everyone's cup of tea but if you are a regular to my blog you have to be somewhat twisted so go ahead and give it a shot and rent it.

'The Cove' Available on Blu Ray and DVD **1/2stars

the academy award winner for best documentary is good not great. some horrific scenes of whale and dolphin slaughters are eye opening to say the least. the japanese who claim no knowledge of the slaughter some how remind me of a generation of germans who claim no knowledge of the holocaust. you can make your own decision on this matter.

it is also your choice to rent or not. the narrative and interviews border on the tedious. the 'heroes' appear to be patting themselves on the back way to much. they appear to enjoy the spotlight more than the cause.
