Another banner week for DVDs with the studios releasing some great films
and boxed sets such as:
The King of Kong: A Fistful of Quarters [
review]
- one of the most perfect documentaries ever about a man you will have no trouble cheering for.;
El Cid - 2-Disc Deluxe Edition [
review] - is on the short list of big, BIG scale films to show as much intelligence as spectacle, a picture that is as intimate is it is grand; and
The Invasion [
review]- this remake of Invasion of the Body Snatchers unfolds as both a high-minded thriller and an adrenaline-charged action flick; Other releases of note
include:
Masterpiece Theatre: Mansfield Park,
Damages: The Complete First Season [
review],
Monty Python's Life of Brian - The Immaculate Edition,
Groundhog Day - 15th Anniversary Edition,
