Entourage, Firewall, Underworld - Evolution: Region 1 DVD Releases for June 6th, 2006 - Page 2

Part of: New DVDs

I count six featurettes of which I will likely watch zero.

Glory Road

In the ongoing mystery that is the appeal of Josh Lucas to studios (he's a fine actor, he just doesn't bring home the bacon to justify studios' faith in giving him the leads in fare like Stealth, Poseidon, and this), we have this true story of the guy who discovered that black people can play basketball. Most of the extras revolve around the actual guy, Coach Haskins.

Running Scared

I give my most qualified recommendation to this odd, but entertaining film. If you like action films and you like films that don't take themselves too seriously and you enjoy reading Peckinpah-esque depth into over-the-top gestures like a back-size tattoo of John Wayne, this is the flick for you. Like I said, qualified. Read my full review to make sense out of my ramblings. Or you can just buy the Running Scared with Billy Crystal and Gregory Hines, which is much funnier (and intentionally so).

Extras include commentary from writer/director Wayne Kramer (The Cooler), which should be very revealing because, whew, there's some messed up shit going on in this flick.

See how many movies in this week's long list were also titles of 80's action comedies.
