New Releases, 29 June 2010

With the Americans out of the World Cup and no reason to watch the rest, what to do with all that extra time? Why, rent some videos from 9th St on Hitt, of course. If these videos were a soccer player, they would elbow you in the nose before charging the goal and blazing a shot right into the upper corner. They're that good.

GREEN ZONE
From the director and star of the Bourne films, an action thriller set in Iraq
Review     Trailer

THE LAST STATION
Well-reviewed film about Tolstoy's later life, and the fight over his will. Looks fantastic.

HOT TUB TIME MACHINE

THE CRAZIES
Also a title very close to its plot, this film being about a horrible virus that turns its small town victims into murderers

PERCY JACKSON & THE OLYMPIANS:
THE LIGHTNING THIEF
From the hit youth novels, about a high school kid who finds that he is the son of Poseidon, and thus a demi-god

THE LAST BIG THING
A satirical comedy about one man who gleefully mocks others' lust for fame, until he falls prey himself...

BASS ACKWARDS
Just based on the photo, I'd say this one puts the "bro" in "road trip"

Have a great week everybody!
