By Bill Frost @bill_frost
Ryan Reynolds finally faces a problem that being pretty won’t solve: He’s buried six feet underground with a depleting oxygen supply, a dying cell phone and no way out. Kind of like sitting through The Proposal. (Lionsgate)
Dark Skies: The Complete Series
The 1996-97 NBC series about UFOs terrorizing Earth in the 1960s, finally on DVD! Watch for Robert Kennedy, Marilyn Monroe, Ronald Reagan, Hubert Humphrey, Carl Sagan, Dan Rather and … Jim Morrison? (Shout Factory)
Death Race 2
The first remake was sooo good, they had to make a second—this one explaining the origins of Death Race that you probably never cared about, anyway, and starring wimpy Luke Goss instead of beefy Jason Statham. And, go! (Universal)
Justified: Season 1
A renegade U.S. Marshal (Timothy Olyphant) is exiled to his Kentucky hometown after shooting up Miami, only to run up against all of the ex-friends, thugs and women he pissed off in the past, all while rocking a sweet Stetson. (Sony)
Takers
Hayden Christensen, Paul Walker, Idris Elba, Chris Brown, T.I. and about 25 more star in Ocean’s IQ 11, wherein a group of well-dressed bank robbers attempt to pull off—wait for it—one last high-stakes job. And, go! (Screen Gems)
