There Will be Blood and Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story, two very disparate films, come DVD this week.
If you missed my review of There Will be Blood click here (be sure to check out the insightful comments section as well).
Several posts were generated by my review of Walk Hard. Check out the entire fracas here if you are so inclined.
For those of you uninterested in my longer, methodically constructed reviews of these movies, I offer these quick, off the cuff remarks about each:
There Will be Blood: If you missed this movie at the end of last year, seize the opportunity to see this film now. Whether you love it or hate it you will feel something, which is more than can be said for many recent releases. I plan on seeing the movie a second time now that it is available for home viewing. Many critics (as well as my lovely wife) swear that the movie takes on a whole new dimension upon second screening.
Walk Hard: This film is available in a longer “unrated” version on DVD. It is hard for me to believe that anything of value was left on the cutting room floor because the movie already felt bloated. I am sure this version will provide slightly different variations on the four jokes that were repeated throughout the movie. I must admit, however, I just found myself chuckling at the memory of a few choice gags. I’ll let you decide on this one.
