City of Men - DVD Art, Trailer
On July 1, City of Men is slated to arrive on DVD. The film was championed to the screen by producer Fernando Merielles who had previously directed City of God, another story about life on the other side of Brazil. This film is based on a popular television show and chronicles the paths of two childhood friends whose friendship is torn apart. The movie received good reviews when it was released. It will be arriving on DVD complete with a making of featurette that takes you behind the scenes of the story.
Punisher: War Zone - Trailer
A few years back we got a Punisher film that was fun, but not quite what I wanted from a Punisher movie. Thomas Jane did a good job in the lead role, but John Travolta as the bad guy was a less than inspired choice. Also, I was not all that crazy about placing it in Florida. In my eyes Punisher belongs in New York. Anyway, we are getting a reboot in the vein of The Incredible Hulk. Will it work? Who knows. Ray Stevensen takes over the title role and doesn't look all that bad in the part. The trailer is decent, even with the homage to Boondock Saints.

Christopher Beaumont spends much of his time writing about entertainment when he isn't sitting in a movie theater. He is known around the office as the "Movie Guy" and is always ready to talk about his favorite form of entertainment and offer up recommendations. Interests include science fiction, horror, and metal music. His writings can be found at 


My fear with The Dark Knight is that it's almost being over-promoted online. I hope all of this saturation doesn't set unrealistic expectations.
